- Direct cupration of fluoroform
-
We have found the first reaction of direct cupration of fluoroform, the most attractive CF3 source for the introduction of the trifluoromethyl group into organic molecules. Treatment of CuX (X = Cl, Br, I) with 2 equiv of MOR (M = K, Na) in DMF or NMP produces novel alkoxycuprates that readily react with CF3H at room temperature and atmospheric pressure to give CuCF3 derivatives. The CuCl and t-BuOK (1:2) combination provides best results, furnishing the CuCF3 product within seconds in nearly quantitative yield. As demonstrated, neither CF3- nor CF2 mediate the Cu-CF3 bond formation, which accounts for its remarkably high selectivity. The fluoroform-derived CuCF3 solutions can be efficiently stabilized with TREAT HF to produce CuCF 3 reagents that readily trifluoromethylate organic and inorganic electrophiles in the absence of additional ligands such as phenanthroline. A series of novel Cu(I) complexes have been structurally characterized, including K(DMF)[Cu(OBu-t)2] (1), Na(DMF)2[Cu(OBu-t)2] (2), [K8Cu6(OBu-t)12(DMF)8(I)] + I- (3), and [Cu4(CF3) 2(C(OBu-t)2)2(μ3-OBu-t) 2] (7).

- Mechanistic Insight into Copper-Mediated Trifluoromethylation of Aryl Halides: The Role of CuI
-
The synthesis, characterization, and reactivity of key intermediates [Cu(CF3)(X)]-Q+ (X = CF3 or I, Q = PPh4) in copper-mediated trifluoromethylation of aryl halides were studied. Qualitative and quantitative studies showed [Cu(CF3)2]-Q+ and [Cu(CF3)(I)]-Q+ were not highly reactive. Instead, a much more reactive species, ligandless [CuCF3] or DMF-ligated species [(DMF)CuCF3], was generated in the presence of excess CuI. On the basis of these results, a general mechanistic map for CuI-promoted trifluoromethylation of aryl halides was proposed. Furthermore, on the basis of this mechanistic understanding, a HOAc-promoted protocol for trifluoromethylation of aryl halides with [Ph4P]+[Cu(CF3)2]- was developed.

- Discovery and characterization of a novel perylenephotoreductant for the activation of aryl halides
-
To develop a photocatalyst with catalytical activity for substrates with low reactivities is always highly desired. Herein, based on the principle of structure–property relationships, we rationally designed the natural product cercosporin, the naturally occurring perylenequinonoid pigment, to develop a novel organic perylenephotoreductant, hexacetyl reduced cercosporin (HARCP), through structural manipulation. Compared with cercosporin, HARCP shows prominent electrochemical and photophysical characteristics with greatly improved photoreductive activity, fluorescence lifetime and fluorescence quantum yield. These properties allowed HARCP as a powerful photoreductant to efficiently realize a series of benchmark reactions, including photoreduction, alkoxylation and hydroxylation to construct C–H and C–O bonds using aryl halides as substrates under mild conditions, all of which have never been achieved by the same photocatalyst. Thus, this study well supports the notion that the principle between structural manipulation and photocatalytic activity is of great significance to design customized photocatalysts for photoredox chemistry.

The trifluoromethylation of iodoarenes was accomplished by use of a 2-trifluoromethylbenzimidazoline derivative as the trifluoromethylating reagent and a catalytic amount of Cu(I) in the presence of 2,2'-bipyridyl as the ligand. Through a mechanistic study, we found that the oxidative addition of the iodoarene to the Cu(I)–CF3 species is the rate-determining step.

- Silica-supported silver nanoparticles as an efficient catalyst for aromatic C-H alkylation and fluoroalkylation
-
The efficient catalysis of oxidative alkylation and fluoroalkylation of aromatic C-H bonds is of paramount importance in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries, and requires the development of convenient Ag0-based nano-architectures with high catalytic activity and recyclability. We prepared Ag-doped silica nanoparticles (Ag0/+@SiO2) with a specific nano-architecture, where ultra-small sized silver cores are immersed in silica spheres, 40 nm in size. The nano-architecture provides an efficient electrochemical oxidation of Ag+@SiO2 without any external oxidant. In turn, Ag+@SiO2 5 mol% results in 100% conversion of arenes into their alkylated and fluoroalkylated derivatives in a single step at room temperature under nanoheterogeneous electrochemical conditions. Negligible oxidative leaching of silver from Ag0/+@SiO2 is recorded during the catalytic coupling of arenes with acetic, difluoroacetic and trifluoroacetic acids, which enables the good recyclability of the catalytic function of the Ag0/+@SiO2 nanostructure. The catalyst can be easily separated from the reaction mixture and reused a minimum of five times upon electrochemical regeneration. The use of the developed Ag0@SiO2 nano-architecture as a heterogeneous catalyst facilitates aromatic C-H bond substitution by alkyl and fluoroalkyl groups, which are privileged structural motifs in pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals.

- C?H Bond Trifluoromethylation of Arenes Enabled by a Robust, High-Valent Nickel(IV) Complex
-
The robust, high-valent NiIV complex [(Py)2NiIVF2(CF3)2] (Py=pyridine) was synthesized and fully characterized by NMR spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and elemental analysis. It reacts with aromatic compounds at 25 °C to form the corresponding benzotrifluorides in nearly quantitative yield. The monomeric and dimeric NiIIICF3 complexes 2?Py and 2 were identified as key intermediates, and their structures were unambiguously determined by EPR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. Preliminary kinetic studies in combination with the isolation of reaction intermediates confirmed that the C?H bond-breaking/C?CF3 bond-forming sequence can occur both at NiIVCF3 and NiIIICF3 centers.

- Ni/Ir-Catalyzed Photoredox Decarboxylative Coupling of S-Substituted Thiolactic Acids with Heteroaryl Bromides: Short Synthesis of Sulfoxaflor and Its SF5 Analog
-
Metallaphotoredox cross-coupling reactions have recently emerged as a powerful tool for the construction of C(sp2)?C(sp3) bonds between alkyl chains and aromatic systems, including electron-deficient heteroaryls, which are known to be challenging coupling partners. In this article, we disclose the Ni/Ir-catalyzed photoredox decarboxylative coupling of readily available S-substituted thiolactic acids with electron-deficient heteroaryl bromides, which resulted in the formation of simple but otherwise not easily accessible heteroarenes with alkylsulfide side chains. To demonstrate a practical use of this coupling reaction, we have shown its efficiency in the one-step synthesis of a key intermediate in the synthesis of the recently marketed insecticide Sulfoxaflor, and for the short synthesis of SF5-Sulfoxaflor.

The reaction of the trifluoromethylating reagent with tert-butoxy cuprate K[Cu(OtBu)2] leads to the CuCF3in high yield. This species is directly formed from the tetrahedral cuprate intermediate through intramolecular migration of the trifluoromethyl group to copper. The CuCF3reagent prepared in situ by our method can be used for the trifluoromethylation of aryl iodides, arylboronic acids, and terminal alkynes in good to excellent yields, even on a gram scale. Furthermore, the CuC2F5reagent can be prepared in the same way, and this can be used in the pentafluoroethylation of arylboronic acids or aryl bromides in good to excellent yields.

- Copper-mediated perfluoroalkylation of heteroaryl bromides with (phen)CuRF

The attachment of perfluoroalkyl groups onto organic compounds has been a major synthetic goal over the past several decades. Previously, our group reported phenanthroline-ligated perfluoroalkyl copper reagents, (phen)CuR F, which react with aryl iodides and aryl boronates to form the corresponding benzotrifluorides. Herein the perfluoroalkylation of a series of heteroaryl bromides with (phen)CuCF3 and (phen)CuCF 2CF3 is reported. The mild reaction conditions allow the process to tolerate many common functional groups. Perfluoroethylation with (phen)CuCF2CF3 occurs in somewhat higher yields than trifluoromethylation with (phen)CuCF3, creating a method to generate fluoroalkyl heteroarenes that are less accessible from trifluoroacetic acid derivatives.

- Trifluoromethylation of aryl and heteroaryl halides with fluoroform-derived CuCF3: Scope, limitations, and mechanistic features
-
Fluoroform-derived CuCF3 recently discovered in our group exhibits remarkably high reactivity toward aryl and heteroaryl halides, performing best in the absence of extra ligands. A broad variety of iodoarenes undergo smooth trifluoromethylation with the ligandless CuCF3 at 23-50 C to give the corresponding benzotrifluorides in nearly quantitative yield. A number of much less reactive aromatic bromides also have been trifluoromethylated, including pyridine, pyrimidine, pyrazine, and thiazole derivatives as well as aryl bromides bearing electron-withdrawing groups and/or ortho substituents. Only the most electrophilic chloroarenes can be trifluoromethylated, e.g., 2-chloronicotinic acid. Exceptionally high chemoselectivity of the reactions (no side-formation of arenes, biaryls, and C2F5 derivatives) has allowed for the isolation of a large number of trifluoromethylated products in high yield on a gram scale (up to 20 mmol). The CuCF3 reagent is destabilized by CuX coproduced in the reaction, the magnitude of the effect paralleling the Lewis acidity of CuX: CuCl > CuBr > CuI. While SNAr and SRN1 mechanisms are not operational, there is a well-pronounced ortho effect, i.e., the enhanced reactivity of ortho-substituted aryl halides 2-RC6H4X toward CuCF3. Intriguingly, this ortho-effect is observed for R = NO2, COOH, CHO, COOEt, COCH3, OCH3, and even CH3, but not for R = CN. The fluoroform-derived CuCF3 reagent and its reactions with haloarenes provide an unmatched combination of reactivity, selectivity, and low cost.

- Design of thymidylate synthase inhibitors using protein crystal structures: The synthesis and biological evaluation of a novel class of 5- substituted quinazolinones
-
The design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of a new class of inhibitors of thymidylate synthase (TS) is described. The molecular design was carried out by a repetitive crystallographic analysis of protein-ligand structures. At the onset of this project, we focused on the folate cofactor binding site of a high-resolution ternary crystal complex of Escherichia coli TS, 5'-fluorodeoxyuridylate (5-FdUMP) and a classical glutamate-containing folic acid analog. A preliminary ternary crystal structure of a novel compound was successfully solved. Upon analysis of this initial complex, further structural elaborations were made, and a series of active 5- (arylthio)quinazolinones was developed. The synthetic strategy was based on the displacement of a halogen at the 5-position of a quinazolinone by various arylthioanions. The compounds were tested for inhibition of purified E. coli and/or human TS, and were assayed for cytotoxicity against three tumor cell lines in vitro. Significant thymidine protection effects were observed with several of the inhibitors, indicating that TS was the intracellular locus of activity.

- THE TRIFLUOROMETHYLATION OF CHLOROAROMATICS USING THE COPPER-CF2Br2-DIALKYLAMIDE REACTION SYSTEM
-
The in situ generation of CuCF3 from the reaction of copper, dibromodifluoromethane and either N,N-dimethylformamide or N,N-dimethylacetamide (Burton's reagent) has been used for the direct substitution of chlorine by CF3 in a number of aromatic substrates.Particular attention has been paid to the effects of ring substituents on the efficiency of reaction.

- Reactions of Trifluoromethyl Bromide and Related Halides: Part 10. Perfluoroalkylation of Aromatic Compounds induced by Sulphur Dioxide Radical Anion Precursors
-
Perfluoroalkylation of electron-rich aromatic compounds with trifluoromethyl bromide, or long-chain perfluoroalkyl iodides, was performed in the presence of sodium dithionite or zinc-sulphur dioxide.This alkylation occurred at the ortho and para positions relative to the amino or hydroxy substitutent.Pyrroles were perfluoroalkylated regioselectively at the 2-position.This alkylation was interpreted as a radical aromatic substitution; the formation of the perfluoroalkyl radical can be induced by a single-electron transfer from sulphur dioxide radical anion to the perfluoroalkyl halide.

- Studies on Organic Fluorine Compounds. Part 27. Abnormal Reactions in the Trifluoromethylation of Aromatic Compounds with Trifluoromethyl Iodide and Copper Powder
-
Reaction of 3-bromobenzofuran with trifluoromethyl iodide and copper powder in pyridine gave 2-(trifluoromethyl)-, 2- and 3-(pentafluoroethyl)-, and 2,3-bis(trifluoromethyl)-benzofuran, as well as the expected product, 3-(trifluoromethyl)benzofuran.Bromoanisole also gave (trifluoromethyl)anisole and (pentafluoroethyl)anisole, but introduction of the perfluoroalkyl group occurred at the position originally occupied by the bromine.Formation of pentafluoroethyl compounds is explained by decomposition of trifluoromethylcopper to cuprous fluoride and difluorocarbene, which can then react with a further molecule of trifluoromethylcopper to form pentafluoroethylcopper.This then reacts with aryl halide to give pentafluoroethyl compounds.Perfluoroalkylcopper is thermally cleaved to perfluoroalkyl radical, which then reacts with pyridine to give perfluoroalkylpyridines.This mechanism must be involved in the formation of 2,3-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzofuran.Introduction of a perfluoroalkyl group to the position originally unoccupied with halogen might be due to the rather localized double bond in benzofuran.
