The base-induced Sommelet-Hauser rearrangement of N-α-branched benzylic azetidine-2-carboxylic acid ester-derived ammonium salts to obtain α-arylazetidine-2-carboxylic acid esters was investigated. The substrates, two diastereomeric salts (1S,2S,1′S)- and (1R,2R,1′S)-2, showed different reactivities. The rearrangement of (1S,2S,1′S)-2a proceeded with a perfect N-to-C chirality transfer to provide (R)-3a in 74% yield with 99% ee. However, the rearrangement of (1R,2R,1′S)-2a under the same conditions afforded (S)-3a in only 15% yield with a lower 66% ee, along with the competitive [1,2] Stevens rearrangement product 4a. Structural and mechanistic studies of this rearrangement were carried out to clarify the exact reason. Our results define the scope and limitations of the Sommelet-Hauser rearrangement and provide unique synthetic access to α-aryl amino acid derivatives.

Charged macromolecules with controlled microstructures were prepared. Well-defined non-ionic precursors were first synthesized by sequence-controlled radical polymerization of tert-butyl 4-vinyl benzoate with various N-substituted maleimides. Afterwards, these macromolecules were hydrolyzed into polyanions.

The preparation of styrenes by palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling of aromatic iodides and bromides with divinyltetramethyldisiloxane (DVDS) in the presence of inexpensive silanolate activators has been developed. To facilitate the discovery of optimal reaction conditions, Design of Experiment (DoE) protocols were used. By the guided selection of reagents, stoichiometries, temperatures, and solvents, the vinylation reaction was rapidly optimized with three stages consisting of ca. 175 experiments (of a possible 1440 combinations). A variety of aromatic iodides undergo cross-coupling at room temperature in the presence of potassium trimethylsilanoate using Pd(dba) 2 in DMF in good yields. Triphenylphosphine oxide is needed to extend catalyst lifetime. Application of these conditions to aryl bromides was accomplished by the development of two complementary protocols. First, the direct implementation of the successful reaction conditions using aryl iodides at elevated temperature in THF provided the corresponding styrenes in good to excellent yields. Alternatively, the use of potassium triethylsilanolate and a bulky "Buchwald-type" ligand allows for the vinylation reactions to occur at or just above room temperature. A wide range of bromides underwent coupling in good yields for each of the protocols described.
