- Mechanistic Basis for Efficient, Site-Selective, Aerobic Catalytic Turnover in Pd-Catalyzed C-H Imidoylation of Heterocycle-Containing Molecules
-
A recently reported Pd-catalyzed method for oxidative imidoylation of C-H bonds exhibits unique features that have important implications for Pd-catalyzed aerobic oxidation catalysis: (1) The reaction tolerates heterocycles that commonly poison Pd catalysts. (2) The site selectivity of C-H activation is controlled by an N-methoxyamide group rather than a suitably positioned heterocycle. (3) A Pd0 source, Pd2(dba)3 (dba = dibenzylideneacetone), is superior to Pd(OAc)2 as a precatalyst, and other PdII sources are ineffective. (4) The reaction performs better with air, rather than pure O2. The present study elucidates the origin of these features. Kinetic, mechanistic, and in situ spectroscopic studies establish that PdII-mediated C-H activation is the turnover-limiting step. The tBuNC substrate is shown to coordinate more strongly to PdII than pyridine, thereby contributing to the lack of heterocycle catalyst poisoning. A well-defined PdII-peroxo complex is a competent intermediate that promotes substrate coordination via proton-coupled ligand exchange. The effectiveness of this substrate coordination step correlates with the basicity of the anionic ligands coordinated to PdII, and Pd0 catalyst precursors are most effective because they selectively afford the PdII-peroxo in situ. Finally, elevated O2 pressures are shown to contribute to background oxidation of the isonitrile, thereby explaining the improved performance of reactions conducted with air rather than 1 atm O2. These collective results explain the unique features of the aerobic C-H imidoylation of N-methoxybenzamides and have important implications for other Pd-catalyzed aerobic C-H oxidation reactions.

- Monomeric (Pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)iridium Imido Compounds: Synthesis, Structure, and Reactivity
-
The monomeric terminal imido complexes Cp*IrNR (Cp* = η5-C5Me5; 1a, R = t-Bu; 1b, R = SiMe2t-Bu; 1c, R = 2,6-Me2C6H3; 1d, R = 2,6-i-Pr2C6H3) were prepared from [Cp*IrCl2]2 (2) and 4 equiv of the corresponding lithium amide LiNHR in THF. In addition, the complexes Cp*Ir(RNH2)Cl2 (3a, R = t-Bu; 3d, R = 2,6-i-Pr2C6H3) were made from an amine and [Cp*IrCl2]2 (2) and dehydrochlorinated with KN(SiMe3)2 to provide an alternate route to 1a,d. Efficient exchange occurred between 1a and arylamines, leading to 1c,d and tert-butylamine. tert-Butylimido complex 1a, a weak nucleophile, reacted with MeI to form [Cp*IrI2]2 and Me3Nt-Bu+I-. Coupling of the imido ligand in 1a with CNt-Bu and CO gave Cp*Ir(t-BuNCNt-Bu)(CNt-Bu) (4) and Cp*Ir(t-BuNCO)(CO) (5a), respectively. Cp*IrPPh3(t-BuNCO) (5b) was formed from 1a, PPh3, and CO. The bridging imido complex Cp*IrNt-Bu(dppePt) (6, dppe = 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane) was prepared from 1a and dppePt(C2H4). Complex 1a and CO2 gave the cycloadduct Cp*Ir(Nt-BuOCO) (7a), which added PPh3 to form Cp*IrPPh3(Nt-BuOCO) (7b). Two equivalents of dimethylacetylenedicarboxylate reacted with 1a to yield the pyrrole complex Cp(Ir(η4-RCCRNt-BuRCCR) (8, R = CO2Me). Maleic anhydride was added to 1a to give Cp*Ir[Nt-BuC(O)CH=CHCO2] (9a), which reacted with CO to yield Cp*Ir(CO)[Nt-BuC(O)CH=CHCO2] (9b). Compounds 1a-d, 7a, and 8 were structurally characterized by X-ray diffraction; imido complexes 1a-d have short Ir-N distances and nearly linear Ir-N-C(Si) angles, consistent with the presence of a metal-nitrogen triple bond.

- Phosphazenes: Efficient organocatalysts for the catalytic hydrosilylation of carbon dioxide
-
Phosphazene superbases are efficient organocatalysts for the metal-free catalytic hydrosilylation of carbon dioxide. They react with CO2 to form the respective phosphine oxides, but in the presence of hydrosilanes, CO2 can be selectively reduced to silyl formates, which can in turn be reduced to methoxysilanes by addition of an extra loading of silanes. Activities reach a TOF of 32 h-1 with a TON of 759. It is also shown that unexpectedly, N,N-dimethylformamide can reduce CO2 to a mixture of silyl formates, acetals and methoxides in the absence of any catalyst.

- Reversible CO2 fixation by N-heterocyclic imines forming water-stable zwitterionic nitrogen-base-CO2 adducts
-
Zwitterionic Lewis base adducts between nitrogen bases and CO2 play a pivotal role as transient intermediates in many projects aiming at CO2 capture, storage and utilization. Yet, fundamental questions about the required parameters for the formation of isolable adducts remain and only a single adduct (TBD-CO2) has been characterized unequivocally. Using a combination of NMR spectroscopy, single-crystal X-ray diffraction, IR spectroscopy and quantum chemistry, we systematically explore the formation and properties of the CO2 adducts with amidines (DBN), guanidines (MTBD) and N-heterocyclic imines. Spectroscopic and theoretical results show that the stability of the NHI-CO2 adducts is largely governed by the nature of the N-heterocycle and the substituent at the exocyclic nitrogen atom. The surprising stability of some NHI-CO2 adducts towards hydrolysis can be ascribed to the hydrophobic CO2 binding site of the nitrogen bases and offers new opportunities in the field of CO2 capture and utilization.

- Metal-Mediated Production of Isocyanates, R3EN=C=O from Dinitrogen, Carbon Dioxide, and R3ECl
-
A highly efficient and versatile chemical cycle has been developed for the production of isocyanates through the molecular fixation of N2, CO2 and R3ECl (E=C, Si, and Ge). Key steps include a 'one-pot' photolytic N-N bond cleavage of a Group6 dinuclear dinitrogen complex with insitu trapping by R3ECl to provide a metal terminal imido complex that can engage in simultaneous nitrene-group transfer and oxygen-atom transfer to generate an intermediate metal terminal oxo complex with release of the isocyanate product. Reaction of the oxo complex with additional equivalents of R3ECl regenerates a metal dichloride that is the precursor for dinuclear dinitrogen starting material.

- Catalytic production of isocyanates via orthogonal atom and group transfers employing a shared formal group 6 M(II)/M(IV) redox cycle
-
Under an atmosphere of CO, the Mo(IV) imido complex CpMo[N( iPr)C(Me)N(iPr)](NSiMe3) (Cp* = η5-C5Me5) (1) serves as a catalyst for production of an isocyanate via metal-mediated nitrene group transfer in benzene solution under mild conditions (55 °C, 10 psi) according to RN3 + CO → N2 + RNCO. Mechanistic and structural studies support a catalytic cycle for nitrene group transfer involving formal Mo(II) monocarbonyl and Mo(IV) (κ2-C,N)-isocyanate intermediates. These results complement an earlier finding that catalytic production of isocyanates can alternatively proceed through oxygen-atom transfer and an isomeric Mo(IV) (κ2-C,O)-isocyanate according to N2O + CNR → N2 + RNCO.

-
A new, mild procedure for the Hofmann rearrangement of aromatic and aliphatic carboxamides using (tosylimino)phenyl-λ3-iodane, PhINTs, as a reagent is reported. Because of the mild reaction conditions, this method is particularly useful for the Hofmann rearrangement of substituted benzamides, which usually afford complex reaction mixtures with other hypervalent iodine oxidants. The mild reaction conditions and high selectivity in the reaction of carboxamides with PhINTs allow the isolation of the initially formed labile isocyanates or their subsequent conversion to stable carbamates by treatment with alcohols.

- Oxo and imido/imido exchange and C-H activation reactions based on pentamethylcylopentadienyl imido tantalum complexes
-
Reactions of [TaCp*Cl4] with two, three and four equivalents of LiNHtBu give the halo- and amido-imido complexes [TaCp*Cl2(NtBu)] (1a), [TaCp*Cl(NtBu)(NHtBu)] (2) and [TaCp*(NtBu)(NHtBu)2] (3), respectively. The related complex [TaCp*Cl2{N(2,6-Me2C6H3)}] (1b) is prepared by a similar reaction using two equivalents of Li[NH(2,6-Me2C6H3)]. Complex 3 can be transformed into 2 and further into 1a by reaction with SiClMe3. Complex 1a reacts with CNtBu to give the 18-electron adduct [TaCp*Cl2(NtBu)(CNtBu)] (4) whereas addition of excess CN(2,6-Me2C6H3) results in reductive elimination of the carbodiimide tBuN=C=N(2,6-Me2C6H3) (5) to give [TaCp*Cl2{CN(2,6-Me2C6H 3)}3]. However complex 1b does not react with any of the isocyanide ligands. Both complexes 1a and 1b react with PhCHO undergoing imido/oxo exchange to give the imines PhCH=NR (R=tBu, 2,6-Me2C6H3 (6)) and dimeric [TaCp*Cl2(O)]2 or trimeric [(TaCp*Cl)3(μ2-Cl)(μ2-O) 3(μ3-O)] oxo-complexes, whereas only 1a reacts with CO2, PhCH=NR′ (R′=Ph, Me) and (2,6-Me2C6H3)N=C=NtBu producing tBuN=CO, PhCH=NtBu and tBuN=C=NtBu, respectively and the corresponding oxo or imido tantalum derivative. None of the complexes reacts with CO or NCR (R=Me, Ph). The complex [TaCp*Me(NtBu)(NHtBu)] activates C-H bonds when heated in benzene and toluene affording [TaCp*Ph(NtBu)(NHtBu)] (7) and a mixture of [TaCp*(m-MeC6H4)(NtBu)(NHtBu)] 8a and [TaCp*(p-MeC6H4)(NtBu)(NHtBu)] (8b). All of the reported organic compounds and tantalum complexes were characterized by 1H- and 13C-NMR spectroscopy.

- Preparation of isocyanates from primary amines and carbon dioxide using Mitsunobu chemistry
-
Primary alkylamines 1 and hindered arylamines 1 give high yields of isocyanates 5 when reacted with carbon dioxide and the Mitsunobu zwitterions 4 generated from dialkyl azodicarboxylates and Bu3P in dichloromethane at - 78°C. Use of Ph3P still gave high yields of isocyanates from reactions of primary alkylamines, but only low yields were obtained from reactions of aromatic amines. Reactions which failed to give high yields of isocyanates gave either carbamoylhydrazines 6 and/or dicarbamoylhydrazines 10 and/or triazolinones 7. The triazolinones were shown to arise from reactions of reactive aryl isocyanates with the Mitsunobu zwitterion. The carbamoylhydrazines were shown not to arise from reaction of isocyanate with reduced dialkyl azodicarboxylates, and a mechanism for their formation is proposed. Single-crystal X-ray analyses confirmed the structures of 6, 7, and 10.

- THE PHOTOCHEMISTRY OF 1,4-DIHYDRO-5H-TETRAZOLE DERIVATIVES ISOLATED IN LOW-TEMPERATURE MATRICES
-
Six 1,4-dihydro-5H-tetrazole (tetrazoline) derivatives have been photolysed in Ar and N2 matrices at 12 K.The dimethyltetrazolinone (1a) gave as the major product the same diaziridinone obtained previously from solution photolysis, but it also underwent a novel cleavage to MeNCO and, presumably, methyl azide.Iminotetrazolines (3a) and (3b) gave the corresponding carbodiimides (5a) and (5b), and iminodiaziridines (4a) and (4b); while the tetrazolinethiones (7a) and (7b) gave carbodiimides (8a) and (8b), respectively.Photolysis of the vinyl substituted tetrazolinone (9) proceeded differently in inert ambient-temperature solutions and low-temperature matrices.In the former an imidazolone (10) was the sole isolable product, while in the latter formation of diaziridinone (15) competed with an alternative cleavage giving t-butyl isocyanate and vinyl azide.THese results are best interpreted on the basis of an intermediate biradical, which, however, could not be detected directly by matrix ir. spectroscopy.

Thirteen alkyl halides (primary, secondary, and tertiary aliphatic including alicyclic, aralkyl, and heteroalkyl systems) and certain non-vicinal dihalides on treatment with silver nitrocyanamide are converted into the corresponding isocyanates (63-95percent).Intermediate alkylnitrocyanamides, spectroscopically detected, thermolysed (-20-80 deg C) to the expected isocyanates.In certain examples silver nitrocyanamide is generated in situ from sodium nitrocyanamide and silver nitrate.Silver nitrocyanamide does not react with cyclopropyl bromide, acetyl chloride, toluene-p-sulphonyl chloride, phenacyl bromide and 2-bromomethyldioxolane (27), and the ethylene acetal (28) of 1-bromo-4-iodopentacyclo-nonan-9-one.Silver nitrocyanamide reacts with 4,6-bis(bromomethyl)-3,7-dimethyl-1,5-diazabicyclo3.3.0)octane-2,8-dione (26), to give an intractable mixture.Vicinal dihalides give erratic results without detectable formation of vicinal di-isocyanates: unisolated 2-bromoethyl isocyanate (tentative assignment) has been detected in a product mixture from ethylene dibromide; an expected rearrangement during the reaction with 1,2-dibromocyclobutane, brought about the formation of 4-bromobut-3-enyl isocyanate isolated as ethyl 4-bromobut-3-enylcarbamate in low yield; and 1,2-dibromocyclohexane gives 2-bromocyclohexyl isocyanate isolated as ethyl N-(2-bromocyclohexyl)-carbamate in low yield.

- Chemiluminescence of Imino-1,2-dioxetan Formed from Ketenimine and Singlet Oxygen
-
The chemiluminescent properties of several imino-1,2-dioxetans prepared by the photosensitized oxygenation of ketenimines at -78 degC, indicate that the energy level of the transition state for their decomposition to the corresponding ketones and isocyanates is low and that the decomposition proceeds via a biradical mechanism.

- N-[2-(pyridinyl)-4-pyrimidinyl]ureas
-
Compounds useful as anti-allergic agents are N-R3 -N-R4 -N'-R-N'-(2-Q-5-R1 -6-R2 -4-pyrimidinyl)ureas (I), where Q is 4- or 3- or 2-pyridinyl or 4- or 3- or 2-pyridinyl having one or two lower-alkyl substituents or N-oxide thereof, R is hydrogen or lower-alkyl, R1 is hydrogen, lower-alkyl or cyano, R2 is hydrogen or lower-alkyl, R3 is hydrogen, lower-alkyl or lower-hydroxyalkyl, R4 is hydrogen, lower-alkyl, lower-hydroxyalkyl, lower-alkenyl or lower-cycloalkyl. Said ureas are prepared by reacting 2-Q-4-RNH-5-R1 -6-R2 -pyrimidine (II) with a carbamylating agent selected from an R4 '-isocyanate of the formula R4 'N=C=O to produce N-R4 '-N'-R-N'-(2-Q-5-R1 -6-R2 -4-pyrimidinyl)urea (IA), an N-R3 '-N-R4 '-carbamyl halide of the formula R3 'R4 'NC(=O)-halide to produce N-R3 '-N-R4 'N'-R-N'-(2-Q-5-R1 -6-R2 -4-pyrimidinyl)urea (IB) or 1,1'-carbonyldiimidazole to produce N-(2-Q-5-R1 -6-R2 -4-pyrimidinyl)-N-R-imidazole-1-carboxamide and then reacting said 1-carboxamide with R3 R4 NH to produce I.
