- Self-Assembled 2,3-Dicyanopyrazino Phenanthrene Aggregates as a Visible-Light Photocatalyst
-
In this study, 2,3-dicyanopyrazino phenanthrene (DCPP), a commodity chemical that can be prepared at an industrial scale, was used as a photocatalyst in lieu of Ru or Ir complexes in C-X (X = C, N, and O) bond-forming reactions under visible-light irradiation. In these reactions, [DCPP]n aggregates were formed in situ through physical π-πstacking of DCPP monomers in organic solvents. These aggregates exhibited excellent photo- and electrochemical properties, including a visible light response (430 nm), long excited-state lifetime (19.3 μs), high excited-state reduction potential (Ered([DCPP]n*/[DCPP]n·-) = +2.10 V vs SCE), and good reduction stability. The applications of [DCPP]n aggregates as a versatile visible-light photocatalyst were demonstrated in decarboxylative C-C cross-coupling, amidation, and esterification reactions.

- Recyclable and Reusable Pd(OAc)2/XPhos–SO3Na/PEG-400/H2O System for Cyanation of Aryl Chlorides with Potassium Ferrocyanide
-
Pd(OAc)2/XPhos–SO3Na in a mixture of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG-400) and water is shown to be a highly efficient catalyst for the cyanation of aryl chlorides with potassium ferrocyanide. The reaction proceeded smoothly at 100 or 120?oC with K2CO3 or KOAc as base, delivering a variety of aromatic nitriles in good to excellent yields. The isolation of the crude products is facilely performed by extraction with cyclohexane and more importantly, both expensive Pd(OAc)2 and XPhos–SO3Na in PEG-400/H2O system could be easily recycled and reused at least six times without any apparent loss of catalytic efficiency. Graphical Abstract: Palladium-catalyzed cyanation of aryl chlorides with potassium ferrocyanide leading to aryl nitriles by using Pd(OAc)2/XPhos–SO3Na/PEG-400/H2O as a highly efficient and recyclable catalytic system is described.[Figure not available: see fulltext.]

- Novelmeta-benzothiazole and benzimidazole functionalised POCOP-Ni(ii) pincer complexes as efficient catalysts in the production of diarylketones
-
The synthesis of four novel non-symmetric Ni(ii)-POCOP pincer complexesmeta-functionalized with either benzothiazole or benzimidazole at the central aryl ring is described. All complexes were fully characterised in solution by various analytical techniques and the molecular structures in the solid state of complexes1b,2aand2bwere unequivocally determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. In addition, the Ni(ii)-POCOP pincer complexes were efficiently used as catalysts in the synthesis of diarylketones by cross-coupling reactions of functionalized benzaldehydes and boronic acid derivatives under relatively mild conditions. An important aspect of this transformation is the dependence on the steric properties of the donor groups (OPR2) of the pincer ligands, the more active compounds having the phosphinitos bearing isopropyl groups (1aand2a) than those containingtert-butyl substituents (1band2b).

In this approach, simple condensation first converts ketones into prearomatic intermediates that then act as activated radical sources for cross-coupling with aryl halides. Our strategy enables the direct benzylation/benzoylation of (hetero)arenes under mild reaction conditions with high functional group tolerance.

- Suzuki coupling of aroyl-MIDA boronate esters – A preliminary report on scope and limitations
-
Recent methodological reports for synthesizing acyl-MIDA boronate esters compel an investigation of their potential use as substrates in a standard Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction. Here we report the production of benzophenones by C[sbnd]C cross coupling between a benzoyl-MIDA boronate ester and a multitude of aryl bromide substrates in adequate yields following optimization under ambient conditions outside of a glove box. Under these standard conditions, none of several acyl-MIDA boronate esters (in an alkyl series) serves as a competent coupling partner. The substrate scope is also limited by the finding that the corresponding trifluoroborates of both acyl- and aroyltrifluroborates are not suitable substrates. For reasons of availability and synthetic difficulty in procuring other aroyl-MIDA boronates, this preliminary study examines the reactivity of benzoyl-MIDA boronate with several aryl bromide substrates.

A sp3 C[sbnd]H bond functionalization and C[sbnd]C bond cleavage were realized by AIBN/O2 catalyst system, providing a series of benzophenones under mild reaction conditions. The mechanistic study shows that a peroxide intermediate is involved in this transformation, and in the case of diphenylmethanes, the sp3 C[sbnd]C bond is cleaved through the peroxide rearrangement, which might provides a new way to cleave relatively strong C[sbnd]C bond and be applied to more general C[sbnd]C bond activation.

- Palladium(II) Complexes of a Neutral CCC-Tris(N-heterocyclic carbene) Pincer Ligand: Synthesis and Catalytic Applications
-
Treatment of tris-azolium precursor 1 with palladium acetate under thermal conditions provided a CCC-pincer palladium(II) complex (2) bearing three NHCs (one imidazolylidene and two triazolylidenes) and one iodide ligand. Further treatment of complex 2 with an excess of AgSbF6 generates tris(carbene) dicationic palladium complex 3 in which the iodine ligands are exchanged with SbF6 anions and the metal center is stabilized by one acetonitrile ligand. Complexes 2 and 3 were tested in several cross coupling reactions showing high conversions under low catalyst loadings and mild reaction conditions. Additionally, complexes 2 and 3 performed well in the hydrosilylation of terminal alkynes with good selectivity toward the E-isomer.

- C(acyl)-C(sp2) and C(sp2)-C(sp2) Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions using nitrile-functionalized NHC palladium complexes
-
Application of N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) palladium complexes has been successful for the modulation of C-C coupling reactions. For this purpose, a series of azolium salts (1a-f) including benzothiazolium, benzimidazolium, and imidazolium, bearing a CN-substituted benzyl moiety, and their (NHC)2PdBr2 (2a-c) and PEPPSI-type palladium (3b-f) complexes have been systematically prepared to catalyse acylative Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reaction of acyl chlorides with arylboronic acids to form benzophenone derivatives in the presence of potassium carbonate as a base and to catalyse the traditional Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reaction of bromobenzene with arylboronic acids to form biaryls. All the synthesized compounds were fully characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR), and 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopies. X-ray diffraction studies on single crystals of 3c, 3e and 3f prove the square planar geometry. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), metal mapping analyses and thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) were performed to get further insights into the mechanism of the Suzuki-Miyaura cross coupling reactions. Mechanistic studies have revealed that the stability and coordination of the complexes by the CN group are achieved by the removal of pyridine from the complex in catalytic cycles. The presence of the CN group in the (NHC)Pd complexes significantly increased the catalytic activities for both reactions.

A palladium-catalyzed external-CO-free carbonylative Hiyama-Denmark cross-coupling reaction is presented. The introduction of silylcarboxylic acids as bifunctional reagents (CO and nucleophile source) avoids the need for external gaseous CO and a silylarene coupling partner. The transformation features high functional group tolerance and it is successful with electron-rich, -neutral, and -poor aryl iodides. Stoichiometric studies and control experiments provide insight into the reaction mechanism and support the hypothesized dual role of silylcarboxylic acids. (Figure presented.).

Decarbonylative aryl transfer-coupling occurs in the Heck reaction employing GIL as solvent. The reactions are catalyzed by Pd(OAc)2 or NiCl2(dppp), are performed under mild conditions in good yields, and have the potential for recycling/reuse of the IL solvent. Collectively, these methods provide facile access to diverse libraries of diarylketones, keto-ethynes and diaryl-ethenes.

- Synthesis of biaryl ketones by arylation of Weinreb amides with functionalized Grignard reagents under thermodynamic controlvs.kinetic control ofN,N-Boc2-amides

A highly efficient method for chemoselective synthesis of biaryl ketones by arylation of Weinreb amides (N-methoxy-N-methylamides) with functionalized Grignard reagents is reported. This protocol offers rapid entry to functionalized biaryl ketones after Mg/halide exchange with i-PrMgCl·LiCl under operationally-simple and practical reaction conditions. The scope of the method is highlighted in >40 examples, including bioactive compounds and pharmaceutical derivatives. Collectively, this transition-metal-free approach offers a major advantage over the recently established cross-coupling of amides by oxidative addition of N-C(O) bonds. Considering the utility of amide acylation reactions in modern synthesis, we expect that this method will be of broad interest.

- A Bifunctional Iron Nanocomposite Catalyst for Efficient Oxidation of Alkenes to Ketones and 1,2-Diketones
-
We herein report the fabrication of a bifunctional iron nanocomposite catalyst, in which two catalytically active sites of Fe-Nx and Fe phosphate, as oxidation and Lewis acid sites, were simultaneously integrated into a hierarchical N,P-dual doped porous carbon. As a bifunctional catalyst, it exhibited high efficiency for direct oxidative cleavage of alkenes into ketones or their oxidation into 1,2-diketones with a broad substrate scope and high functional group tolerance using TBHP as the oxidant in water under mild reaction conditions. Furthermore, it could be easily recovered for successive recycling without appreciable loss of activity. Mechanistic studies disclose that the direct oxidation of alkenes proceeds via the formation of an epoxide as intermediate followed by either acid-catalyzed Meinwald rearrangement to give ketones with one carbon shorter or nucleophilic ring-opening to generate 1,2-diketones in a cascade manner. This study not only opens up a fancy pathway in the rational design of Fe-N-C catalysts but also offers a simple and efficient method for accessing industrially important ketones and 1,2-diketones from alkenes in a cost-effective and environmentally benign fashion.

- Novel and efficient bridged bis(N-heterocyclic carbene)palladium(II) catalysts for selective carbonylative Suzuki–Miyaura coupling reactions to biaryl ketones and biaryl diketones
-
Bridged N,N′-substituted bisbenzimidazolium bromide salts (L1, L2, and L3) were synthesized and fully characterized. Reactions of palladium acetate with L1, L2, and L3 afforded corresponding new bridged bis(N-heterocyclic carbene)palladium(II) complexes (C1, C2, and C3) in high yields. The X-ray structure of complex C1 showed that the Pd(II) ion is bonded to the two carbon atoms of the bis(N-heterocyclic carbene) and two bromido ligands are in the cis position, resulting in a distorted square planar geometry. The three Pd(NHC)2Br2 complexes C1, C2, and C3 were evaluated in carbonylative Suzuki–Miyaura coupling reactions of aryl boronic acids with aryl halides and displayed high catalytic activity with low catalyst loading. The coupling reactions of aryl bromides were selective towards the carbonylation product at higher carbon monoxide pressure.

- Kinetically Controlled, Highly Chemoselective Acylation of Functionalized Grignard Reagents with Amides by N?C Cleavage
-
The direct transition-metal-free acylation of amides with functionalized Grignard reagents by highly chemoselective N?C cleavage under kinetic control has been accomplished. The method offers rapid and convergent access to functionalized biaryl ketones through transient tetrahedral intermediates. The direct access to functionalized Grignard reagents by in situ halogen–magnesium exchange promoted by the versatile turbo-Grignard reagent (iPrMgCl?LiCl) permits excellent substrate scope with respect to both the amide and Grignard coupling partners. These reactions enable facile, operationally simple and chemoselective access to tetrahedral intermediates from amides under significantly milder conditions than chelation-controlled intermediates. This novel direct two-component coupling sets the stage for using amides as acylating reagents in an alternative paradigm to the metal-chelated approach, acyl metals and Weinreb amides.

- Xantphos-ligated palladium dithiolates: An unprecedented and convenient catalyst for the carbonylative Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling reaction with high turnover number and turnover frequency
-
Xantphos- and dithiolate-ligated macrocyclic palladium complexes as an efficient and stable catalyst for the carbonylative Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling reaction have been synthesized. The catalysts were characterized by 1H-nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), CHNS (carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, and sulfur) analysis, melting point analysis, and 31P-NMR spectroscopy. Several sensitive functional groups (e.g., –NO2, –F, –Cl, –Br, –NH2, and –CN) on the aromatic ring were well tolerated in the carbonylative Suzuki–Miyaura coupling reaction. The present palladium complexes produce six times higher turnover number (TON) and five times higher turnover frequency (TOF) compared with conventional homogeneous palladium precursors. Maximum TONs in the range of 105 to 106 and TOF in the range of 104 to 105 could be generated by a very low amount of catalyst loading (10–5?mol%).

Immobilized palladium nanoparticles on a cyclodextrin-polyurethane nanosponge (Pd-CD-PU-NS) were found to be an efficient heterogeneous catalyst in the cyanation reaction of aryl halides in aqueous media. This catalyst system is containing palladium nanoparticles with a size of ~7 nm. Moreover, the CD-PU-NS support formed microsphere-shaped structures with a size of ~100–200 nm. The TEM images show that Pd nanoparticles were formed in near spherical shape morphology and were immobilized in the structure of the CD-PU-NS support. Under our optimized reaction conditions, aryl cyanides were obtained in high yields in the presence of the Pd-CD-PU-NS catalyst. Our results demonstrated that the Pd-CD-PU-NS catalyst is highly effective in the cyanation reaction in aqueous media. Furthermore, the catalyst could be simply extracted from the reaction mixture, providing an efficient methodology for the synthesis of aryl cyanides. The Pd-CD-PU-NS catalyst could be recycled four times with almost consistent catalytic efficiency.

A new method for the synthesis of diaryl and heterodiaryl ketones has been established based on the palladium-catalyzed carbonylative Suzuki coupling approach with sub-stoichiometric Mo(CO)6 as CO source. Using 0.5 mol% of Pd(TFA)2 as catalyst, 0.5 equivalent of Mo(CO)6 as solid carbonyl reagent and 3 equivalent of K3PO4 as base, a wide range of functionalized (hetero)aryl iodides and (hetero)aryl boronic acids could smoothly proceed the carbonylative cross-coupling reaction in aqueous CH3CN at 50 °C, affording the corresponding ketones in good to excellent yields. The newly developed method was easy to operate under mild conditions with high efficiency. (Figure presented.).

- Hydroxyl-functionalized triazolylidene-based PEPPSI complexes: Metallacycle formation effect on the Suzuki coupling reaction
-
We report the preparation and full characterization of a series of hydroxyl functionalized 1,2,3-triazolylidene-based PEPPSI complexes 2a-c and their catalytic application in the Suzuki cross coupling reaction of aryl chlorides/amides with boronic acids. Under basic reaction conditions, complexes 2a-c show a notable increase in their catalytic efficiency compared with two ether-wingtip functionalized PEPPSI analogues (3 and 4) and a commercially available NHC-Pd complex (5). The catalytic results suggest that deprotonation of the hydroxyl group in complexes 2a-c plays an important role in the overall process. Deprotonation of the alcohol moiety of complexes 2a-b with sodium tert-butoxide allows for the isolation of metallacycles 6a-b, which are proposed as the active species of cross coupling reactions.

- Green Synthesis of Palladium Nanoparticles: Applications in Aryl Halide Cyanation and Hiyama Cross-Coupling Reaction Under Ligand Free Conditions
-
Abstract: In the current work, palladium nanoparticles (Pd NPs) were prepared from palladium acetate biogenically using the aqueous-ethanolic extract of black pepper (Piper nigrum) and characterized by various analytical techniques like XRD, FE-SEM, EDS, TEM, ATR-IR, UV–Vis spectroscopy, BET, TGA and ICP-OES analysis. The reduction of Pd(II)?to?Pd(0) is achieved by the action of various phytochemicals present in the black pepper extract like phenols, acids, pellitorine, ethyl piperonyl cyanoacetate, piperine and N-isobutyl-tetradeca-2,4-dienamide. The biosynthesized Pd NPs shown excellent catalytic activity in aryl halide cyanation and Hiyama cross-coupling reactions. Also, less toxic potassium hexacyanoferrate(II) trihydrate was used as cyanide source in aryl halide cyanation and Hiyama cross-coupling was performed under fluoride free condition. Both reactions proceeded well with Pd NPs under ligand free circumstances to give good to excellent yields. The Pd NPs were recovered after each reaction and recycled up to five times in aryl halide cyanation and ten times in Hiyama cross-coupling without considerable loss in the activity.

- Synthesis, Coordination, and Catalytic Use of 1′-(Diphenylphosphino)ferrocene-1-sulfonate Anion
-
Sulfonation of (diphenylphosphinothioyl)ferrocene (1) with chlorosulfonic acid in acetic anhydride affords the crude sulfonic acid Ph2P(S)fcSO3H (2; fc = ferrocene-1,1′-diyl), which can be efficiently purified and isolated after conversion to Ph2P(S)fcSO3(HNEt3) (3). Methyl triflate/P(NMe2)3 can be used to convert compound 3 to the stable sulfonate salt Ph2PfcSO3(HNEt3) (4) and Ph2P(Me)fcSO3 (5) as a minor, zwitterionic byproduct. Alternatively, compound 4 can be prepared by lithiation of 1′-(diphenylphosphino)-1-bromoferrocene (6; Ph2PfcBr) and trapping of the lithiated intermediate with SO3·NMe3. Reactions of [(LNC)PdX]2 and [(LSC)PdX]2, where X = Cl, AcO, LNC = 2-[(dimethylamino-κN)methyl]phenyl-κC1, and LSC = 2-[(methylthio-κS)methyl]phenyl-κC1, with 4 uniformly produced the bis-chelate complexes [(LNC)Pd(Ph2PfcSO3-κ2O,P)] (7) and [(LSC)Pd(Ph2PfcSO3-κ2O,P)] (8), respectively. The reaction of [PdCl2(MeCN)2] with 4 afforded the bis(phosphine) complex trans-(Et3NH)2[PdCl2(Ph2PfcSO3-κP)2] (9). Complexes 7-9 were used as defined catalyst precursors for the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling of boronic acids with acyl chlorides to give ketones. Reactions of aromatic substrates in the presence of Na3PO4 and 9, the base and Pd source that showed the best performance, in a toluene/water biphasic system provided the coupling products in good yields; however, aliphatic substrates typically resulted in poor conversions. Extensive tests of the reaction scope revealed that the transposition of the substituents between the reaction partners can have a substantial effect on the yield of the coupling product in otherwise complementary reactions, which highlights the importance of the judicious choice of starting materials for this particular reaction.

Diaryl ketones are of much importance in organic synthesis as versatile intermediates and in industry for their useful properties. A mild and efficient palladium-catalyzed traditional ligand-free decarboxylative coupling of aryl α-keto carboxylic acid with aryl diazonium fluoroborate has been developed. A series of unsymmetrical diaryl ketones has been synthesized in moderate to good yields using this procedure. A radical pathway involving the acyl radical has been suggested.

- Acyl and Decarbonylative Suzuki Coupling of N-Acetyl Amides: Electronic Tuning of Twisted, Acyclic Amides in Catalytic Carbon-Nitrogen Bond Cleavage
-
We report the Pd-catalyzed acyl and the Ni-catalyzed biaryl Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling of N-acetyl-amides with arylboronic acids by selective N-C(O) cleavage. Activation of the amide bond by N-acylation provides electronically destabilized, acyclic, nonplanar amide, which readily undergoes cross-coupling with a wide range of boronic acids to produce biaryl ketones or biaryls in a highly efficient manner. Most crucially, the presented results introduce N-acetyl-amides as reactive acyclic amides in the emerging manifold of transition-metal-catalyzed amide cross-coupling. The scope and origin of high selectivity are discussed. Mechanistic studies point to remodeling of amidic resonance and amide bond twist as selectivity determining features in a unified strategy for cross-coupling of acyclic amides. Structural studies, mechanistic investigations as well as beneficial effects of the N-acyl substitution on cross-coupling of amides are reported.

- Method of utilizing continuous flow microreactor to synthesize benzophenone derivative
-
The invention belongs to the technical field of organic synthesis, and particularly relates to a method of utilizing a continuous flow microreactor to synthesize a benzophenone derivative. The methodincludes: using aryl Grignard reagent and acyl chloride as raw materials; at normal temperature, continuously synthesizing the benzophenone derivative in the microreactor; recycling a reaction solvent2-methyl tetrahydrofuran. Problems of environmental pollution and reaction operation safety caused by the fact that conventional Fridel-Crafts reaction is excessively dependent on reagents like aluminum trichloride, ferric trichloride and zinc dichloride are avoided, the defect that novel catalytic processes are expensive in catalytic reagent and harsh in operation condition is made up, and continuous synthesis of a medical intermediate ketoprofen nitrile is realized efficiently. The method has the advantages of high operation convenience, high reaction safety, high yield, high efficiency andreaction solvent reusability and is environment-friendly and efficient.

- Pd(II)-Catalyzed Denitrogenative and Desulfinative Addition of Arylsulfonyl Hydrazides with Nitriles
-
A Pd(II)-catalyzed denitrogenative and desulfinative addition of arylsulfonyl hydrazides with nitriles has been successfully achieved under mild conditions. This transformation is a new method for the addition reaction to nitriles with arylsulfonyl hydrazides as arylating agent, thus providing an alternative synthesis of aryl ketones. The reported addition reaction is tolerant to many common functional groups, and works well in the presence of electron-donating and electron-withdrawing substituents. Notably, the reported denitrogenative and desulfinative addition was also appropriate for alkyl nitriles, making this newly developed transformation attractive.

- Pd-NHC catalysed Carbonylative Suzuki coupling reaction and its application towards the synthesis of biologically active 3-aroylquinolin-4 (1H)-one and acridone scaffolds
-
We have unfolded a convenient and mild protocol for the synthesis of diaryl ketones via Pd- NHC catalysed carbonylative Suzuki coupling reaction. Notably, this method offers advantages like no use of toxic CO gas, shorter reaction time, high yield, and broad substrate scope. Several sensitive functional groups (like-COMe, -COOMe, -F, -Cl, -Br, -NH2, -CN) are well tolerated in this reaction. In addition, we have also demonstrated a new efficient route for the synthesis of biologically active and pharmaceutically important 2-substituted 3-Aroylquinolin-4(1H)-ones and acridone scaffolds.

- Efficient N-heterocyclic carbene palladium(II) catalysts for carbonylative Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reactions leading to aryl ketones and diketones
-
New N, N′-substituted imidazolium salts (L1 and L2) and their corresponding diiodopyridinepalladium(II) complexes (C1 and C2) were successfully synthesized and characterized. Reactions of palladium iodide with the newly synthesized N, N′-substituted imidazolium iodides in pyridine afforded the corresponding new palladium-N-heterocyclic carbene pyridine complexes in high yields. The new palladium(II) complex C1 was characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The Pd(II) ion is bonded to the nitrogen atom of the pyridine, the carbon atom of the NHC carbene ligand and two trans iodides resulting in distorted square planar geometry. The two Pd-NHC-Py complexes C1 and C2 displayed higher catalytic activity in the carbonylative Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reactions with much lower catalyst loading as compared to the catalytic systems reported in the literature.

- A phosphine-free, heterogeneous palladium-catalyzed atom-efficient carbonylative cross-coupling of triorganoindiums with aryl halides leading to unsymmetrical ketones
-
The first phosphine-free heterogeneous palladium-catalyzed carbonylative cross-coupling of aryl halides with triorganoindiums has been developed that proceeds smoothly under 1 or 2.5 atm of carbon monoxide in THF at 68 °C and provides a general and powerful tool for the synthesis of various valuable unsymmetrical ketones with high atom-economy, good yield, and recyclability of the catalyst. Our system not only avoids the use of phosphine ligands, but also solves the basic problem of palladium catalyst recovery and reuse.
