- Ring-closure reaction of 2-benzoylbenzenediazonium salts in 1-butyl-3- methylimidazolium ionic liquids
-
A ring-closure reaction by thermal dediazoniation of 2-substituted benzenediazonium tetrafluoroborates in imidazolium-based ionic liquids was investigated. Dediazoniation of 2-(4-R-benzoyl)benzenediazonium tetrafluoroborates (R = H, Me, OMe, Cl) in ionic liquid [BMIM][TfO] gave 3-R-9-fluorenones as ring-closure products and 2-(4-R-benzoyl)phenyl trifluoromethanesulfonates as substitution products. Dediazoniation in [BMIM][Tf2N] afforded 3-R-9-fluorenones and R-C6H4-CO-C6H4-OSO(CF3)(NSO2CF3). Yields of the ring-closure products were higher in [BMIM][Tf2N] than in [BMIM][TfO]. 2-Benzylbenzenediazonium and 2-phenoxybenzenediazonium tetrafluoroborates exclusively produced substitution products in both ionic liquids. DFT calculations suggest that electron transfer from the anion to render homolytic process should be induced more readily in [BMIM][Tf2N] than in [BMIM][TfO]. This ability may be responsible for the higher yields of the ring-closure products via homolytic pathway and the smaller yields of the substitution products via heterolytic pathway in [BMIM][Tf2N].

Palladium-catalyzed C2-arylation/intramolecular acylation with arylcarboxylic acids was developed by using diaryliodonium salts. The protocol has the advantage of good step-economy by two chemical bonds formation in one pot.

- Photoinduced C-Br homolysis of 2-bromobenzophenones and Pschorr ring closure of 2-aroylaryl radicals to fluorenones
-
(Chemical Equation Presented) A variety of diversely substituted 2-aroylaryl radicals, generated by photoinduced homolysis of 2-bromoarylketones, is shown to undergo Pschorr cyclization to yield fluorenones in moderate to excellent yields. The photochemical results illustrate that the substituents in the two phenyl rings of the 2-bromobenzophenone skeleton exert a dramatic influence on the reactivity of the derived 2-aroylaryl radicals. The disubstitution by methoxy groups in the radical ring renders the aryl σ-radical highly electrophilic and unreactive for hydrogen abstraction and cyclization. On the other hand, the substituents in the non-radical ring that strongly stabilize the hydrofluorenyl π-radical, formed subsequent to the attack of the 2-aroylaryl radical on the non-radical ring, promote cyclization to furnish fluorenones in excellent isolated yields.
