Iodine-Catalyzed Diels-Alder Reactions

The Diels-Alder cycloaddition is the most popular pericyclic reaction with numerous applications in synthesis and catalysis. We now demonstrate that we can perform this reaction under mild and metal-free conditions relying on molecular iodine as the catalyst. Cycloadditions with cyclohexadiene, cyclopentadiene, or isoprene with various dienophiles can be performed typically within minutes in moderate to good yields and high endo selectivity. The mechanistic studies including kinetic and DFT investigations clearly indicate a halogen-bond activation and rule out other modes of activation. Furthermore, iodine performs equally well as typical metallic Lewis acids like AlCl3, SnCl4, or TiCl4.

Strongly Lewis Acidic Metal-Organic Frameworks for Continuous Flow Catalysis

The synthesis of highly acidic metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) has attracted significant research interest in recent years. We report here the design of a strongly Lewis acidic MOF, ZrOTf-BTC, through two-step transformation of MOF-808 (Zr-BTC) secondary building units (SBUs). Zr-BTC was first treated with 1 M hydrochloric acid solution to afford ZrOH-BTC by replacing each bridging formate group with a pair of hydroxide and water groups. The resultant ZrOH-BTC was further treated with trimethylsilyl triflate (Me3SiOTf) to afford ZrOTf-BTC by taking advantage of the oxophilicity of the Me3Si group. Electron paramagnetic resonance spectra of Zr-bound superoxide and fluorescence spectra of Zr-bound N-methylacridone provided a quantitative measurement of Lewis acidity of ZrOTf-BTC with an energy splitting (?E) of 0.99 eV between the ?x? and ?y? orbitals, which is competitive to the homogeneous benchmark Sc(OTf)3. ZrOTf-BTC was shown to be a highly active solid Lewis acid catalyst for a broad range of important organic transformations under mild conditions, including Diels-Alder reaction, epoxide ring-opening reaction, Friedel-Crafts acylation, and alkene hydroalkoxylation reaction. The MOF catalyst outperformed Sc(OTf)3 in terms of both catalytic activity and catalyst lifetime. Moreover, we developed a ZrOTf-BTC?SiO2 composite as an efficient solid Lewis acid catalyst for continuous flow catalysis. The Zr centers in ZrOTf-BTC?SiO2 feature identical coordination environment to ZrOTf-BTC based on spectroscopic evidence. ZrOTf-BTC?SiO2 displayed exceptionally high turnover numbers (TONs) of 1700 for Diels-Alder reaction, 2700 for epoxide ring-opening reaction, and 326 for Friedel-Crafts acylation under flow conditions. We have thus created strongly Lewis acidic sites in MOFs via triflation and constructed the MOF?SiO2 composite for continuous flow catalysis of important organic transformations.

Diazepane Carboxylates as Organocatalysts in the Diels–Alder Reaction of α-Substituted Enals

Ethyl diazepane carboxylate efficiently catalyzes the Diels–Alder cycloaddition of α-substituted-α,β-unsaturated aldehydes via iminium ion organocatalysis. The reaction is applicable to a range of dienes and dienophiles and generally proceeds at room temperature in the presence of 5 mol-% catalyst and 2.5 mol-% triflic acid co-catalyst. The incorporation of a stereogenic center on the diazepane backbone in combination with a menthyl carbamate produces a catalyst which affords enantioselectivities of 70–95 % ee for the cycloaddition of cyclopentadiene with a range of dienophiles. The enantioselectivity is rationalized via a transition state in which electrostatic stabilization by the carboxylate directs the diene to the more hindered face of the dienophile.

Synthesis of a Chiral Borate Counteranion, Its Trityl Salt, and Application Thereof in Lewis-Acid Catalysis

The preparation of a chiral derivative of [B(C6F5)4]– in which the fluorine atom in the para position of each of the C6F5 groups is replaced by a 1,1′-binaphthalen-2-yl group is described. The new counteranion was isolated as its lithium, sodium, and trityl salts. The chiral trityl salt was then used as a catalyst in selected counteranion-directed Diels–Alder reactions and a Mukaiyama aldol addition, but no asymmetric induction was achieved. Application of the chiral trityl salt to the generation of silicon cations by silicon-to-carbon hydride transfer from hydrosilanes failed, presumably as a result of the incompatibility of the relatively electron-rich naphthyl groups in the borate and the cationic silicon electrophiles.

Enantioselective Diels-Alder Reaction Induced by Chiral Supramolecular Lewis Acid Catalysts Based on CN?B and PO?B Coordination Bonds

Chiral supramolecular boron Lewis acid catalysts were prepared from chiral 3-phosphoryl-1,1′-bi-2-naphthols, (2-cyanophenyl)boronic acids, and tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane, bound through CN···B and PO···B coordination bonds. In particular, the coordinated tris(pentafluorophenyl)boranes increase the Lewis acidity of the active center in the manner of a Lewis acid assisted Lewis acid catalyst system. A possible cavity in these catalysts was highly suitable for several Diels-Alder probe reactions of acroleins with cyclic or acyclic dienes, which gave the corresponding adducts in good to high yields and high enantio-selectivities.

Synthetic studies toward polytwistane hydrocarbon nanorods

A synthetic strategy toward the intriguing hydrocarbon nanorod polytwistane is outlined. Our approach aims toward the polymerization of acetylene starting from precursors that would provide a helical bias for the formation of polytwistane. Both transition-metal-catalyzed and radical polymerizations were investigated. Two potential initiator molecules were synthesized that could be used for either approach. Although the intended regioselectivities were not observed, unusual organopalladium complexes and numerous compounds with novel carbon skeletons were obtained.

Carbocations as lewis acid catalysts in diels-alder and Michael addition reactions

In general, Lewis acid catalysts are metal-based compounds that owe their reactivity to a low-lying empty orbital. However, one potential Lewis acid that has received negligible attention as a catalyst is the carbocation. We have demonstrated the potential of the carbocation as a highly powerful Lewis acid catalyst for organic reactions. The stable and easily available triphenylmethyl (trityl) cation was found to be a highly efficient catalyst for the Diels-Alder reaction for a range of substrates. Catalyst loadings as low as 500 ppm, excellent yields, and good endo/exo selectivities were achieved. Furthermore, by changing the electronic properties of the substituents on the tritylium ion, the Lewis acidity of the catalyst could be tuned to control the outcome of the reaction. The ability of this carbocation as a Lewis acid catalyst was also further extended to the Michael reaction. Copyright
