- Dynamics of Atropisomerization of 1,1'-Binaphtyl in Several Nematic Solvents. Rate Enhancement by a Solid Phase
-
The rates of atropisomerization of (S)-1,1'-binaphtyl (BN) are compared in six nematic phases and in the solid phase of p-methoxybenzylidene-p-n-butylaniline.The influence of each phase on the activation parameters for atropisomerization are correlated with the solvent molecular structures.The results in the nematic and solid phases are interpreted in terms of degree to which the solvent matrices flatten the angle between the naphtyl rings of BN.

- Novel route to enantiopure 2,2′-diaryl-1,1′-binaphthalenes by stereoconservative Suzuki arylation at positions 2 and 2′
-
The Suzuki arylation of enantiopure 2,2′-diiodo-1,1′- binaphthalene affords the 2,2′-diarylated products in considerable yields (up to 52%), however, significantly racemized. The reversed-polarity approach, using novel enantiopure 1,1′-binaphthalene-2,2′-diyldiboronic acid, prepared either by resolution or by stereoconservative boronation, allowed, after optimization of coupling conditions, to obtain the model 2,2′-ditolylated product in good yield (56%) as well, but in addition, without impairing of enantiomeric purity (i.e. stereo-conservatively). The developed synthetic approach was found to be an expedient method for the synthesis of enantiopure 2,2′-diaryl-1,1′-binaphthalenes, especially for those with electron-neutral and electron-deficient poor aryl groups. Observing that the diboronic acid decomposes by hydrodeboronation under the reaction conditions, 2-aryl-1,1′-binaphthalenes were isolated as the main products from the reaction with less reactive electron-rich aryl iodides.

- Cleavage of aryl iodides at carbon cathodes in organic carbonates. Surfaces doped by transition metals at the nanometric scale: Electro or redox catalysis?
-
The cathodic reduction of aryl iodides ArIs at carbon electrodes was achieved in cyclic carbonates (e.g., propylene carbonate PC). The novelty of the present method simply lies in the ability of title compounds to create aromatic carbanions that may act as nucleophiles towards carbonates. Consequently, several aromatic esters ArC(O)OR are generated as side products that play the role of redox mediators for indirectly cleaving C-X bond at solid inert electrodes. This procedure surprisingly allows one to obtain, through this self-induced redox catalysis, Ar-Ar dimers sometimes in high yield. Meanwhile, the triggering of such processes could be boosted by doping inert electrodes by electro-deposition of metals such as palladium, nickel, or silver. Extremely thin layers of metals are well shown to be very efficient (even at average thickness 0.1 nm) to induce catalytic steps presenting quite large potential shifts compared to bare carbon electrodes when employed in inert solvents. The probable concomitance of electrocatalytic and redox catalytic processes is discussed and argued.

- Origin of the excellent catalytic activity of Pd loaded on ultra-stable y zeolites in Suzuki-Miyaura reactions
-
Suzuki-Miyaura reactions were performed over Pd loaded on (ultra-stable Y) USY zeolites prepared by steam treatment of NH4-Y. We found that the catalytic activity of Pd increased significantly with steam treatment of NH 4-Y when 6% H2 was applied before and during the reactions. For instance, a TON of 13,000,000 was obtained in the reaction between bromobenzene and phenylboronic acid in 1.5 h. Pd K-edge and Pd L 3-edge X-ray absorption fine structure analyses revealed the formation of atomic Pd with a cationic character. The catalytic activity of Pd/USY prepared under different steam-treatment conditions was in good correlation with the strong Bronsted acid sites induced by the extra-framework Al. Based on the catalytic performance data, the structure of Pd, and acidic analysis of the support, atomic Pd anchored to the strong Bronsted acid sites of the USY zeolite was proposed to be the active species.

- Structures and photoluminescence of Silver(I) and Gold(I) cyclic trinuclear complexes with aryl substituted pyrazolates
-
The 4-aryl substituted pyrazolate ligands, L1(Ph)H and L1(Naph)H, were synthesized by SuzukiMiyaura cross-coupling and combined with metal sources to give cyclic trinuclear structures [AgL1(Ph)]3, [AuL1(Ph)] 3, [AgL1(Naph)] 3, and [AuL1(Naph)]3. The aryl group determined the crystal packing of these cyclic trinuclear complexes with the phenyl systems exhibiting stair type solid state structures and the naphthyl complexes exhibiting irregular structures with spaces occupied with some solvent molecules. These differences in solid-state structures were accompanied by differences in MN stretching frequencies and temperature dependent photoluminescence.

- Deracemization of a Racemic Compound by Using Tailor-Made Additives
-
Viedma ripening is a process that combines abrasive grinding of a slurry of crystals with solution-phase racemization, resulting in solid-phase deracemization. One of the major disadvantages of Viedma ripening is that the desired compound needs to crystallize as a racemic conglomerate, accounting for only 5–10 % of all chiral molecules. Herein, we show that use of a chiral additive causes deracemization under conditions, in which the compound normally crystallizes as a racemic compound. Although this concerns a single example, it is envisioned that through this new approach the scope of Viedma ripening can be significantly expanded.

- Platinum-Catalyzed Racemization of 1,1'-Binaphthyl
-
The racemization of 1,1'-binaphthyl in ethanol is subject to heterogeneous catalysis by platinum (prepared by reduction of platinum oxide with hydrogen).The rate of catalyzed reaction is first order in binaphthyl but independent of platinum concentration over a limited range.First-order rate constants at 25 deg C decrease with increased binaphthyl concentration and are up to 12-fold that for the uncatalyzed racemization.Catalysis by platinum is stopped momentarily by the injection of air and is diminished by injection of cyclohexene or cyclohexane into the solution.Racemization therefore occurs on active sites which are also capable of reducing oxygen or cyclohexene.It is suggested that, for racemization of binaphthyl, these sites are acting as electron donors rather than hydrogen atom donors.

- Bimetallic Ni–Pd Synergism—Mixed Metal Catalysis of the Mizoroki-Heck Reaction and the Suzuki–Miyaura Coupling of Aryl Bromides
-
Abstract: A combination of Pd and Ni complexes activated aryl bromides for the thermal Mizoroki-Heck reaction and Suzuki coupling giving high yields in short reaction times. A thermal redox mechanism probably occurs whereby Ni complex transfers electron and reduces the Pd (II) to Pd (0) which then takes the reactants through the standard protocol of oxidative-addition, migratory insertion and reductive elimination, typical for the Mizoroki-Heck reaction and the Suzuki coupling.

- "benchtop" Biaryl Coupling Using Pd/Cu Cocatalysis: Application to the Synthesis of Conjugated Polymers
-
Typically, Suzuki couplings used in polymerizations are performed at raised temperatures in inert atmospheres. As a result, the synthesis of aromatic materials that utilize this chemistry often demands expensive and specialized equipment on an industrial scale. Herein, we describe a bimetallic methodology that exploits the distinct reactivities of palladium and copper to perform high yielding aryl-aryl dimerizations and polymerizations that can be performed on a benchtop under ambient conditions. These couplings are facile and can be performed by simple mixing in the open vessel. To demonstrate the utility of this method in the context of polymer synthesis: polyfluorene, polycarbazole, polysilafluorene, and poly(6,12-dihydro-dithienoindacenodithiophene) were created at ambient temperature and open to air.

- Tandem Mn–I Exchange and Homocoupling Processes Mediated by a Synergistically Operative Lithium Manganate
-
Pairing lithium and manganese(II) to form lithium manganate [Li2Mn(CH2SiMe3)4] enables the efficient direct Mn–I exchange of aryliodides, affording transient (aryl)lithium manganate intermediates which in turn undergo spontaneous C?C homocoupling at room temperature to furnish symmetrical (bis)aryls in good yields under mild reaction conditions. The combination of EPR with X-ray crystallographic studies has revealed the mixed Li/Mn constitution of the organometallic intermediates involved in these reactions, including the homocoupling step which had previously been thought to occur via a single-metal Mn aryl species. These studies show Li and Mn working together in a synergistic manner to facilitate both the Mn–I exchange and the C?C bond-forming steps. Both steps are carefully synchronized, with the concomitant generation of the alkyliodide ICH2SiMe3 during the Mn–I exchange being essential to the aryl homocoupling process, wherein it serves as an in situ generated oxidant.

- Zirconium-redox-shuttled cross-electrophile coupling of aromatic and heteroaromatic halides
-
Transition metal-catalyzed cross-electrophile coupling (XEC) is a powerful tool for forging C(sp2)–C(sp2) bonds in biaryl molecules from abundant aromatic halides. While the synthesis of unsymmetrical biaryl compounds through multimetallic XEC is of high synthetic value, the selective XEC of two heteroaromatic halides remains elusive and challenging. Herein, we report a homogeneous XEC method, which relies on a zirconaaziridine complex as a shuttle for dual palladium-catalyzed processes. The zirconaaziridine-mediated palladium (ZAPd)-catalyzed reaction shows excellent compatibility with various functional groups and diverse heteroaromatic scaffolds. In accord with density functional theory (DFT) calculations, a redox transmetallation between the oxidative addition product and the zirconaaziridine is proposed as the crucial elementary step. Thus, cross-coupling selectivity using a single transition metal catalyst is controlled by the relative rate of oxidative addition of Pd(0) into the aromatic halide. Overall, the concept of a combined reducing and transmetallating agent offers opportunities for the development of transition metal reductive coupling catalysis.

The reaction proceeded well under mild conditions with phenylboronic acid, pinacol ester or anhydride and provided yields of products up to 97% with good functional group compatibility. The direct arylation of arylamine can be performed by a two-step one-pot process and the protocol can be performed on the gram scale.

- Sterically enhanced 2-iminopyridylpalladium chlorides as recyclable ppm-palladium catalyst for Suzuki–Miyaura coupling in aqueous solution
-
Sterically hindered 2-iminopyridine derivatives and their palladium chlorides complexes are designed and prepared, which efficiently promote the Suzuki–Miyaura coupling (SMC) reaction in aqueous solution. Besides the good to excellent yields and broad substrate scope, these catalysts can be reused for at least four new batches of the substrates. Spontaneous separation of coupling products in the aqueous reaction medium is the additional striking feature of this catalytic process. Furthermore, catalytic performance of palladium complexes bearing the azo-bridged phenyl groups was greatly influenced by the UV irradiation due to the cis/trans photoisomerization of azo unit of the catalysts. In conclusion, titled palladium complexes provide a green, sustainable, cost-effective, and convenient process to synthesize SMC products at multi-gram-scale reaction.

- Grignard reagent dictated copper(I) phosphines catalyzed reductive coupling of diazo compounds: The chemistry beyond carbene generation
-
Copper-dppf catalyzed reductive coupling of diazo compounds through terminal nitrogen is reported. However, copper catalysts are known to produce carbene from diazo compounds; the reaction conditions played an important role in the formation of diazine over carbene generation. Several control experiments have been conducted to understand the reaction mechanism and found that the formation of a copper–Mg heterobimetallic complex would be responsible for the observed reactivity pattern. The reaction produced diazine as a reductive coupling product along with biphenyl as a by-product. All the synthesized diazines have been characterized fully by using analytical and spectroscopic techniques.

- Green-Synthesized Nickel Nanoparticles on Reduced Graphene Oxide as an Active and Selective Catalyst for Suzuki and Glaser-Hay Coupling Reactions
-
A mild and benign methodology to syntheses biaryls and 1,3-diynes has been demonstrated using the nickel nanoparticles supported on reduced graphene oxide (RGO-Ni) as a heterogeneous catalyst which is prepared using green reagents. A series of substituted biaryls and 1,3-diynes has been synthesised in good to excellent yields through C-C homocoupling reaction of arylboronic acids and terminal alkynes respectively using 1,4-dioxane as a benign solvent. The present ligand-free catalytic system proceeds smoothly under mild conditions, avoids noble and stoichiometric metal reagents and tolerates sensitive functional groups. Also has a wide substrate scope and feasible with other nitrogen and sulphur containing heteroaryl boronic acids. Hot filtration test unambiguously proves the true heterogeneity of the catalyst and which support for the further reusability of the catalyst for several times without any change in the activity. The easy preparation and simple magnetic separation, stability and reusability reveal that as-prepared RGO-Ni as a versatile catalyst for the synthesis of polyaromatic compounds both in academia and industries. Highlights: Green-synthesized RGO-Ni nanocomposite used as a heterogeneous catalyst for Suzuki type (C-C) and Glaser–Hay (C ≡ C) homocoupling coupling reactions. Ligand-free catalytic system and avoids noble and stoichiometric metal reagents Short reaction time with a minimum catalyst (nickel) loading RGO-Ni nanocomposite is highly stable, reusable, and magnetically retrievable.

The superiority of this Pd(II)-reagent to those commercial Pd(II) and Pd(0) catalysts in catalyzing the reactions has been confirmed by parallel experiments.

This is the first time that a sensory component has been used in an organic reaction. Experiments using the catalyst system showed that the reactions proceeded smoothly under air in the absence of both an additional ligand and a reductant. Furthermore, the catalyst system can be applied to the coupling reactions of hetaryl iodides. Many functional groups (including a hydroxy group) are tolerated.

- Exploring the coordination confinement effect of divalent palladium/zero palladium doped polyaniline-networking: As an excellent-performance nanocomposite catalyst for C-C coupling reactions
-
A pre-formed catalyst Pd2+/PANI composite for C-C coupling reaction was synthesized by combining the self-stabilized dispersion polymerization method with the in-situ composite material. Experiments have confirmed that the relatively high reduced structure (75%) in the polyaniline carrier is more favorable for the coupling reaction. Raman spectroscopy, solid nuclear magnetic, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy were performed to characterize the structures. The pre-formed catalyst has uniform coordination of divalent palladium and nitrogen in different valence states of the carrier polyaniline, which shows a good synergistic effect in the catalytic Ullmann reaction, and greatly reduces the use of reducing agents such as hydrazine hydrate. Compared with other studies, we analyzed the catalytic reaction mechanism in detail through real-time online infrared and XPS characterization. The results show that the divalent palladium in the catalyst and the zero-valent palladium generated by the in-situ reaction synergistically promote the reaction, while the polyaniline support acts as a stabilizer and dispersant, which prevents the agglomeration of the metal particles and prolongs increased catalyst life. The prepared Pd2+/PANI composites will become the most attractive alternative to traditional organic materials due to their wide applicability, high catalytic activity, stable recycling and relatively low price. This work provides a new theoretical basis for the understanding of the essential driving force of PANI catalytic activity and the cognition of the micro mechanism of action.

- Exploration of mechanochemical activation in solid-state fluoro‐grignard reactions
-
Owing to the strength of the C–F bond, the ‘direct’ preparation of Grignard reagents, i.e., the interaction of elemental magnesium with an organic halide, typically in an ethereal solvent, fails for bulk magnesium and organofluorine compounds. Previously described mechanochemical methods for preparing Grignard reagents have involved ball milling powdered magnesium with organochlorines or bromines. Activation of the C–F bond through a similar route is also possible, however. For example, milling 1- and 2-fluoronaphthalene with an excess of magnesium metal for 2 h, followed by treatment with FeCl3 and additional milling, produces the corresponding binaphthalenes, albeit in low yields (ca. 20%). The yields are independent of the particular isomer involved and are also comparable to the yields from corresponding the bromonaphthalenes. These results may reflect similar charges that reside on the α-carbon in the naphthalenes, as indicated by density functional theory calculations.

- Fine Tuning of Chiral Bis(N-heterocyclic carbene) Palladium Catalysts for Asymmetric Suzuki-Miyaura Cross-Coupling Reactions: Exploring the Ligand Modification
-
Novel chiral N,N′-bisaryl bis(NHC) ligand precursors H2[(S)-2]Cl2 on a spiro scaffold and H2[(S)-3b-g]Cl2 with a binaphthyl linkage were rationally designed and their cyclometalated cis-chelated NHC palladium complexes (S)-5, (S)-6, and (S)-7b-g have been synthesized and fully characterized. Complexes 6 and 7b were further confirmed by X-ray single-crystal analysis. Both complexes adopted a slightly distorted square planar geometry around the Pd(II) center. The structure of 6 consists of a rare dimeric arrangement incorporating two palladium(II) centers bonded through a short metal-metal bond (2.853(2) ?), indicating a PdII-PdII intramolecular interaction (?). These N,N′-bisaryl-bis(NHC)-Pd complexes together with N,N′-bisalkyl analogues {[(S)-1a-d]PdX2} (X = I, (S)-4a; X = Br, (S)-4b-d) have been used in the asymmetric aryl-aryl cross-coupling reactions of arylboronic acids and aryl halides. The enantioselectivity of the biaryl products was greatly improved within 24 h (up to 74% ee) when complexes 7a-g were used as catalysts. The results show that for these types of bis(NHC) palladium catalysts the structural characters of the chiral scaffolds play a decisive role in the enantioselectivities of cross-coupling reactions.

- Generation of Organozinc Reagents by Nickel Diazadiene Complex Catalyzed Zinc Insertion into Aryl Sulfonates
-
The generation of arylzinc reagents (ArZnX) by direct insertion of zinc into the C?X bond of ArX electrophiles has typically been restricted to iodides and bromides. The insertions of zinc dust into the C?O bonds of various aryl sulfonates (tosylates, mesylates, triflates, sulfamates), or into the C?X bonds of other moderate electrophiles (X=Cl, SMe) are catalyzed by a simple NiCl2–1,4-diazadiene catalyst system, in which 1,4-diazadiene (DAD) stands for diacetyl diimines, phenanthroline, bipyridine and related ligands. Catalytic zincation in DMF or NMP solution at room temperature now provides arylzinc sulfonates, which undergo typical catalytic cross-coupling or electrophilic substitution reactions.

- Evaluation of the Transferability of the “Flexible Steric Bulk” Concept from N-Heterocyclic Carbenes to Planar-Chiral Phosphinoferrocenes and their Electronic Modification
-
The concept of “flexible steric bulk” is discussed at 2-phenylvinyl-1-phosphinoferrocenes. The introduction of freely rotatable 1'-silyl groups increases the catalytic productivity within the synthesis of tri-ortho-substituted biaryls by Suzuki–Miyaura C,C cross-coupling reactions, giving higher yields with 1/4 of catalyst concentration than for the non-silylated derivatives. Electronic modification of the P and the vinyl donor functionalities was investigated by introducing substituents in the para positions of both groups. Therein, electron-withdrawing phosphines increased the yield from 78 to 91 percent for a given biaryl, by changing from a diphenylphosphino to the P(p-CN-C6H4)2 unit. Opposite results, obtained from electron-donating and sterically demanding phosphines, were in accordance with the 1J(31P,77Se) values. However, the electron density of the ferrocenyl backbone, expressed by the redox potential of the first ferrocenyl-related redox process, cannot be correlated with the donor-properties at the P atom. Changing from a PPh2-substituted ferrocene to a (RA)-1,1'-binaphthyl-containing phosphonite, a complex interaction between the axial- and the planar-chiral motifs occurs, resulting a change of the absolute biaryl configuration.

- Cobalt-catalyzed C(sp2)?CN bond activation: Cross-electrophile coupling for biaryl formation and mechanistic insight
-
Herein, we report a cross-electrophile coupling of benzonitrile derivatives and aryl halides with a simple cobalt-based catalytic system under mild conditions to form biaryl compounds. Even though the cobalt catalyst is able to activate the C(sp2)?CN bond alone, the use of the AlMe3 Lewis acid enhances the reactivity of benzonitriles and improves the cross-selectivity with barely any influence on the functional group compatibility. X-ray structure determination of an original low-valent cobalt species combined with catalytic and stoichiometric reactions reveals a catalytically active cobalt(I) species toward the aryl halide partner. On the other hand, experimental insights, including cyclic voltammetry experiments, suggest the involvement of a cobalt complex of a lower oxidation state to activate the benzonitrile derivative. Finally, density functional theory calculations support the proposed mechanistic cycle involving two low-valent cobalt species of different oxidation states to perform the reaction.

This method is compatible with various silicon sources and can be operated under aerobic conditions. Mechanistic studies support the in situ formation of a Grignard reagent, which is captured by the electrophilic silicon source.

- Catalyst shuttling enabled by a thermoresponsive polymeric ligand: Facilitating efficient cross-couplings with continuously recyclable ppm levels of palladium
-
A polymeric monophosphine ligand WePhos has been synthesized and complexed with palladium(ii) acetate [Pd(OAc)2] to generate a thermoresponsive pre-catalyst that can shuttle between water and organic phases, with the change being regulated by temperature. The structure of the polymeric ligand was confirmed with matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry and size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) analysis, as well as nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) measurements. This polymeric metal complex enables highly efficient Pd-catalyzed cross-couplings and tandem reactions using 50 to 500 ppm palladium, and this can facilitate reactions that are tolerant to a broad spectrum of (hetero)aryl substrates and functional groups, as demonstrated with 73 examples with up to 99% isolated yields. Notably, 97% Pd remained in the aqueous phase after 10 runs of catalyst recycling experiments, as determined via inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES) measurements, indicating highly efficient catalyst transfer. Furthermore, a continuous catalyst recycling approach has been successfully developed based on flow chemistry in combination with the catalyst shuttling behavior, allowing Suzuki-Miyaura couplings to be conducted at gram-scales with as little as 10 ppm Pd loading. Given the significance of transition-metal catalyzed cross-coupling and increasing interest in sustainable chemistry, this work is an important step towards the development of a responsive catalyst, in addition to having high activity, by tuning the structures of the ligands using polymer science.

- Micro-electro-flow reactor (μ-EFR) system for ultra-fast arene synthesis and manufacture of daclatasvir
-
The World Health Organization (WHO) has listed daclatasvir (DCV), symmetrical arene, as one of the essential medicines for human health. DCV manufacturing is usually carried out in a non-continuous or "batch" approach over multiple locations and is severely limited by long production times (3-10 days), resulting in non-affordability (highly expensive) and disruption of the potential chain supply. Here, we report the total process system including the development of a novel electro-flow reactor containing patterned electrodeposited Ni or Pt nanoparticles over a copper electrode for a C-C coupling reaction in a co-reductant/oxidant-free, ultra-fast process for symmetrical substituted/unsubstituted biphenyl synthesis. This method was further extended to a new generation commercial batch synthetic route for continuous flow ultra-fast daclatasvir synthesis in 33.2 min. We envisage that this micro-electro-flow reactor (μ-EFR) system platform will substantially enable advances in continuous-μ-flow fine chemical manufacturing, multistep reaction sequences, reaction devising equipment, and real-time extraction.

- Aerobic and Ligand-Free Manganese-Catalyzed Homocoupling of Arenes or Aryl Halides via in Situ Formation of Aryllithiums
-
Ligand-free manganese-catalyzed homocoupling of arenes or aryl halides can be carried out under aerobic conditions via the in situ formation of the corresponding aryllithiums. A wide range of biaryls and derivatives has been obtained, and a mechanism involving monomeric manganese-oxo complexes has been proposed on the basis of DFT calculations.

- Method for directly synthesizing biarene compounds without metal catalysis
-
The invention discloses a method for directly synthesizing biarene compounds without metal catalysis. The method is characterized in that one diaryl sulfoxide represented by a structural formula (I) shown in the description and trimethylsilyl phenyl trifluoromethanesulfonate represented by a structural formula (II) are subjected to a reaction in the presence of cesium fluoride to obtain one corresponding biarene compound represented by a formula (III) shown in the description. The method provided by the invention does not require to add any expensive metal catalyst during the reaction, therebyreducing the production costs; and the compounds have better compatibility with a substrate containing better leaving groups (such as halogen and OTs) on an aromatic ring.

- Desulfurization of Diaryl(heteroaryl) Sulfoxides with Benzyne
-
Two benzyne-enabled desulfurization reactions have been demonstrated which convert diaryl sulfoxides and heteroaryl sulfoxides to biaryls and desulfurized heteroarenes, respectively. The reaction accessing biaryls tolerates a variety of functional groups, such as halides, pseudohalides, and carbonyls. Mechanistic studies reveal that both reactions proceed via a common assembly process but divergent disassemblies of the generated tetraaryl(heteroaryl) sulfuranes.

- A Copper-Catalyzed Reductive Defluorination of β-Trifluoromethylated Enones via Oxidative Homocoupling of Grignard Reagents
-
An efficient copper-catalyzed reductive defluorination of β-trifluoromethylated enones via an oxidative homocoupling of Grignard reagents is reported. The reaction proceeded smoothly with a wide range of substrates, including the ones bearing aromatic heterocycles, such as furyl and thienyl ring systems in high yields (80-92%, except one example) under mild conditions. This provides a practical method for synthesis of gem-difluoroolefin ketones. It is also worth noting that this homocoupling process of Grignard reagents using β-trifluoromethylated enones as oxidizing reagents is effective for both the Csp2-Csp2 and Csp3-Csp3 bond formations, including for substrates whose β-hydride elimination of the corresponding transition metal alkyl complex is particularly facile, affording coupling products with high yields (83-95%), simultaneously.

- Facile three-step synthesis and photophysical properties of [8]-, [9]-, and [12]cyclo-1,4-naphthalene nanorings: Via platinum-mediated reductive elimination
-
Herein we report a facile three-step synthesis of [8]-, [9]-, and [12]cyclo-1,4-naphthalene nanorings as the conjugated segments of carbon nanotubes. The nanorings were created via a platinum-mediated assembly of 1,4-naphthalene-based units and subsequent reductive elimination in the presence of triphenylphosphine. This present platinum-mediated approach is attractive because of its simple three-step process to produce the targeted nanorings in a high overall yield. In addition, their photophysical properties were studied using UV-vis spectroscopy and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy, which further revealed their unique size-dependent properties.

The invention discloses a method used for preparing 1,1'-binaphthalene. According to the method, under the catalytic effect of a cupric salt in an ionic liquid, metal samarium is adopted to promote 1-naphthalene halide coupling reaction to prepare 1,1'-binaphthalene; under stirring, 1-bromonaphthalene is mixed with and dissolved in ionic liquid [bmim][BF4]( 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate), metal samarium powder and anhydrous cupric chloride powder are added successively; reaction of an obtained reaction system is carried out at water-free conditions at room temperature with stirring until full reaction is achieved; an obtained reaction mixed solution is subjected to ionic liquid recovery; an obtained crude product is subjected to column chromatography separating so as to obtain 1,1'-binaphthalene, and recrystallization is adopted so as to obtain a pure product. The yield ranges from 70 to 98%.

- Fast, Efficient and Low E-Factor One-Pot Palladium-Catalyzed Cross-Coupling of (Hetero)Arenes
-
The homocoupling of aryl halides and the heterocoupling of aryl halides with either aryl bromides or arenes bearing an ortho-lithiation directing group are presented. The use of a Pd catalyst, in combination with t-BuLi, allows for the rapid and efficient formation of a wide range of polyaromatic compounds in a one pot procedure bypassing the need for the separate preformation of an organometallic coupling partner. These polyaromatic structures are obtained in high yields, in 10 min at room temperature, with minimal waste generation (E-factors as low as 1.5) and without the need for strict inert conditions, making this process highly efficient and practical in comparison to classical methods. As illustration, several key intermediates of widely used BINOL-derived structures are readily prepared.

-
Gold nanoparticles were decorated onto sulfonated three-dimensional graphene (3DG-SO3H) through spontaneous chemical reduction of HAuCl4 by 3DG-SO3H. This nanocomposite exhibited excellent catalytic activity for the synthesis of symmetric biaryls via the Ullmann homocoupling of aryl iodides in an aqueous medium. Additionally, this nanocomposite was used as a catalyst for the reduction of p-nitrophenol to p-aminophenol. The catalyst could be used more than six times successively without significant deactivation.

- Intermediacy of Ni-Ni Species in sp2 C-O Bond Cleavage of Aryl Esters: Relevance in Catalytic C-Si Bond Formation
-
Monodentate phosphine ligands are frequently employed in the Ni-catalyzed C-O functionalization of aryl esters. However, the extensive body of preparative work on such reactions contrasts with the lack of information concerning the structure and reactivity of the relevant nickel intermediates. In fact, experimental evidence for a seemingly trivial oxidative addition into the C-O bond of aryl esters with monodentate phosphines and low-valent nickel complexes still remains elusive. Herein, we report a combined experimental and theoretical study on the Ni(0)/PCy3-catalyzed silylation of aryl pivalates with CuF2/CsF additives that reveals the involvement of unorthodox dinickel oxidative addition complexes in C-O bond cleavage and their relevance in C-Si bond formation. We have obtained a mechanistic picture that clarifies the role of the additives and demonstrates that dinickel complexes act as reservoirs of the propagating monomeric nickel complexes by disproportionation. We believe this study will serve as a useful entry point to unravelling the mechanistic underpinnings of other related Ni-catalyzed C-O functionalization reactions employing monodentate phosphines.

- Towards environmentally friendlier Suzuki-Miyaura reactions with precursors of Pd-NHC (NHC = N-heterocyclic carbene) complexes
-
The preparation of [NHC·H][Pd(η3-R-allyl)Cl2] complexes is disclosed and represents a facile, atom-economical, environmentally friendly and rapid synthesis. These palladates are immediate synthetic precursors to the well-known [Pd(NHC)(η3-R-allyl)Cl] complexes. Their activation leading to catalytically relevant species has been studied in the Suzuki-Miyaura reaction. The need for an activation step prior to the catalysis was examined. The reaction scope showcases its ease and breadth in terms of functional group tolerance. Electron-donating and electron-withdrawing aryl chlorides and bromides were coupled effectively as well as heteroatom-containing and sterically hindered aryl halides. The catalytic reaction was conducted in ethanol with a weak and inexpensive inorganic base.

- Synthesis and catalytic activity of chiral linker-bridged bis-N-heterocyclic carbene dipalladium complexes
-
A series of new chiral-bridged N-heterocyclic carbene ligands with different substituents and their corresponding palladium complexes have been synthesised. The effect of the substituents on the catalytic activity of these Pd complexes was investigated in the Suzuki reaction of p-bromotoluene with phenylboronic acid, and the results showed that the complexes with aryl substituents performed better than those with alkyl substituents. The complex with the most sterically hindered substituent (diisopropyl on a phenyl group) performed best, and it was also an efficient catalyst for the reaction of various arylboronic acids with aryl halides having different electronic and steric properties. In addition, it was employed as a catalyst in the asymmetric Suzuki reaction, but only moderate yields of 1,1-binaphthalenes with less than 20% enantiomeric excess were obtained.

The complex was fully characterized by elemental analysis (CHN), FT-IR, UV–Vis and EPR spectroscopic techniques. The structure of the complex was confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction study. The EPR spectrum is isotropic type having giso?=?2.078, which indicates a distorted octahedral geometry of the complex. The complex was found to be an active homogeneous catalyst for the homocoupling reactions of arylboronic acid to obtain symmetrical biaryls at room temperature in methanol without the use of any additives such as a base and or an oxidant.

A simple and highly efficient method for the constructions of Csp-Csp, Csp2-Csp2 and Csp3-Csp3 bonds is reported. The symmetrical diaryl tellurides undergo detellurative homocouplings to afford symmetrical biaryl products. The reactions are carried out at ambient temperature using PdCl2 as a catalyst in the presence of Ag2O and Na2CO3. Similarly, the detellurative homocouplings of dibenzyl telluride and bis(phenylethynyl)telluride give bibenzyl and the conjugated diyne, respectively.

- Reconnaissance of reactivity of an Ag(II)SO4 one-electron oxidizer towards naphthalene derivatives
-
We test divalent silver sulphate, Ag(ii)SO4 as a novel reagent for oxidative coupling of aromatic hydrocarbons under ambient temperature conditions. The applicability of the C(sp2)-C(sp2) coupling protocol is illustrated for naphthalene and its 1-substituted derivatives containing either electron donating (e.g. Me, MeO, or Ph) or electron-withdrawing groups (X = F?I), leading to 4,4′-disubstituted-1,1′-binaphthyls. Coupling of 2-bromo-naphthalene yields a mixture of 2,2′-, 2,7′-, and 7,7′-dibromo-1,1′-binaphthyls together with their trimeric and tetrameric analogues. The coupling of strongly electron-withdrawing 1-CF3-naphthalene provides the 5,5′-disubstituted-1,1′-binaphthyl derivative. The new method does not require the presence of halogen substituents, in contrast to most of the known C-C coupling methods, and it preserves them, if present. Ag(ii)SO4 may be easily electrochemically regenerated from the Ag(i)HSO4 byproduct. However, the C-C coupling method currently suffers from low yields, up to 17%, and it requires further optimization.

- Cyclopalladation in the Periphery of a NHC Ligand as the Crucial Step in the Synthesis of Highly Active Suzuki–Miyaura Cross-Coupling Catalysts
-
Starting from 2,4-dichloropyrimidine, 4-(2-dialkylamino)pyrimidinyl functionalized mesitylimidazolium chlorides are accessible in a five-step reaction sequence. Two routes leading to palladium NHC complexes derived from these ligands have been worked out: By transmetalation with the corresponding NHC-AgCl complexes, C,N-coordinated palladium(II) complexes can be obtained. Treatment of palladium dichloride with the imidazolium salts in pyridine and in the presence of K2CO3 gives cyclometalated and thus C,C-coordinated compounds. The reactivities of all these compounds were investigated in detail as well as their performance in the catalytic Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling reaction. It turned out that the C,C-coordinated derivatives exhibit high catalytic activities in the coupling of arylboronic acids with aryl chlorides, which is consistent with the generally accepted mechanistic ideas on substrate activation.

The boronate group is also retained on biaryls without any ArB bond cleavage, which is highly advantageous for orthogonal coupling.

Pincer complexes can act as efficient catalysts for many industrially important organic transformations under environmentally benign and mild conditions. The NNN pincer ligands have been prepared from the reactions between pyridine-2,6-dicarbonyldichloride and benzylamine or its derivatives in the presence of 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP). Pd(II) complexes containing NNN pincer ligand and acetonitrile/triphenylphosphine have been synthesized and characterized by analytical, spectroscopic (FT-IR, UV-Visible, 1H, 13C & 31P NMR and Mass) and single crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. Single crystal X-ray analysis reveals a distorted square planar geometry around Pd in all the complexes. These pincer complexes have been used as catalysts in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction. The effect of ancillary ligands (CH3CN and PPh3) in the complexes has been investigated towards the coupling reaction. The conversions have been determined from GC analyses. Scope of the system has been extended with various substituted halides.

Mixed organohalidopalladium complexes of the type trans-(NHC)2Pd(R)Br were conveniently obtained from trans-(NHC)2PdBr2 type complexes by a ligand-substitution reaction. In particular, the trans-[1-(1S)-menthyl-4-(R1)-1,2,4-triazol-5-ylidene]2Pd(R2)Br [R1 = Et, R2 = CH2Ph (3a1); R1 = Et, R2 = o-OMeC6H4 (3a2); R1 = R2 = CH2Ph (3b1); R1 = CH2Ph, R2 = o-OMeC6H4 (3b2)] complexes were obtained from the corresponding palladium(II) precursor complexes, 2a,b, by reaction with the respective Grignard reagents, in good to excellent yields (74–93 %). Three of the four mixed organohalidopalladium complexes, 3a1,a2,b1, have been structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, which revealed the trans disposition of the NHC ligands around the palladium center. The use of these mixed organohalidopalladium complexes in the Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling reaction was established for all of the complexes, 3a1–b2, which yielded the desired cross-coupled products upon treatment with various ArB(OH)2 [Ar = 1-naphthyl, 4-(1,1′-biphenyl), 9-phenanthrenyl, 4-FC6H4, and 2,6-Me2C6H3] compounds, in the presence of NaOH as a base, in CH3CN, in three hours, under reflux conditions.

A Pd(II)-catalysed homocoupling of sodium arylsulfinates has been successfully achieved under mild conditions. This transformation is a new method for the homocoupling reaction of sodium arylsulfinates, thus providing an alternative synthesis of symmetric biaryls. The reported homocoupling reaction is tolerant to many common functional groups, such as ester, halo, cyano and nitro and works well in the presence of electron-donating and electron-withdrawing substituents. Notably, the reported desulfinative homocoupling does not require Cu salts, ligands and bases, making this newly developed transformation attractive.
