- Cobalt-Catalyzed C(sp2)-C(sp3) Suzuki-Miyaura Cross-Coupling Enabled by Well-Defined Precatalysts with L,X-Type Ligands
-
Cobalt(II) halides in combination with phenoxyimine (FI) ligands generated efficient precatalysts in situ for the C(sp2)-C(sp3) Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling between alkyl bromides and neopentylglycol (hetero)arylboronic esters. The protocol enabled efficient C-C bond formation with a host of nucleophiles and electrophiles (36 examples, 34-95%) with precatalyst loadings of 5 mol %. Studies with alkyl halide electrophiles that function as radical clocks support the intermediacy of alkyl radicals during the course of the catalytic reaction. The improved performance of the FI-cobalt catalyst was correlated with decreased lifetimes of cage-escaped radicals as compared to those of diamine-type ligands. Studies of the phenoxyimine-cobalt coordination chemistry validate the L,X interaction leading to the discovery of an optimal, well-defined, air-stable mono-FI-cobalt(II) precatalyst structure.

- A general N-alkylation platform via copper metallaphotoredox and silyl radical activation of alkyl halides
-
The catalytic union of amides, sulfonamides, anilines, imines, or N-heterocycles with a broad spectrum of electronically and sterically diverse alkyl bromides has been achieved via a visible-light-induced metallaphotoredox platform. The use of a halogen abstraction-radical capture (HARC) mechanism allows for room temperature coupling of C(sp3)-bromides using simple Cu(II) salts, effectively bypassing the prohibitively high barriers typically associated with thermally induced SN2 or SN1 N-alkylation. This regio- and chemoselective protocol is compatible with >10 classes of medicinally relevant N-nucleophiles, including established pharmaceutical agents, in addition to structurally diverse primary, secondary, and tertiary alkyl bromides. Furthermore, the capacity of HARC methodologies to engage conventionally inert coupling partners is highlighted via the union of N-nucleophiles with cyclopropyl bromides and unactivated alkyl chlorides, substrates that are incompatible with nucleophilic substitution pathways. Preliminary mechanistic experiments validate the dual catalytic, open-shell nature of this platform, which enables reactivity previously unattainable in traditional halide-based N-alkylation systems.

- Cobalt-Catalyzed Cross-Coupling of 3- and 4-Iodopiperidines with Grignard Reagents
-
A cobalt-catalyzed cross-coupling between 3- and 4-iodopiperidines and Grignard reagents is disclosed. The reaction is an efficient, cheap, chemoselective, and flexible way to functionalize piperidines. This coupling was used as the key step to realize a short synthesis of (±)-preclamol. Some mechanistic investigations were conducted that highlight the formation of radical intermediates. Scaffold synthesis: A cobalt-catalyzed cross-coupling between iodopiperidines and Grignard reagents is reported (see scheme; PG=protecting group). A large variety of 3- and 4-substituted piperidines were synthesized and the method was applied to a short synthesis of (±)-preclamol. This work constitutes one of the rare examples of cross-couplings involving 3-halogeno piperidines.

- Nonsolvent application of ionic liquids: Organo-catalysis by 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium cation based room-temperature ionic liquids for chemoselective N-tert-butyloxycarbonylation of amines and the influence of the C-2 hydrogen on catalytic efficiency
-
1-Alkyl-3-methylimidazolium cation based ionic liquids efficiently catalyze N-tert-butyloxycarbonylation of amines with excellent chemoselectivity. The catalytic role of the ionic liquid is envisaged as "electrophilic activation" of di-tert-butyl dicarbonate (Boc2O) through bifurcated hydrogen bond formation with the C-2 hydrogen of the 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium cation and has been supported by a downfield shift of the imidazolium C-2 hydrogen of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide ([bmim][NTf2]) from δ 8.39 to 8.66 in the presence of Boc2O in the 1H NMR and a drastic reduction of the catalytic efficiency with 1-butyl-2,3-dimethylimidazolium ionic liquids that are devoid of the C-2 hydrogen. The differential time required for reaction with aromatic and aliphatic amines has offered means for selective N-t-Boc formation during inter and intramolecular competitions. Preferential N-t-Boc formation with secondary aliphatic amine has been achieved in the presence of primary aliphatic amine. Comparison of the catalytic efficiency for N-t-Boc formation with a common substrate revealed that [bmim][NTf2] is superior to the reported Lewis acid catalysts.
