Copper-Catalyzed Ullmann-Type Coupling and Decarboxylation Cascade of Arylhalides with Malonates to Access α-Aryl Esters

We have developed a high-efficiency and practical Cu-catalyzed cross-coupling to directly construct versatile α-aryl-esters by utilizing readily available aryl bromides (or chlorides) and malonates. These gram-scale approaches occur with turnovers of up to 1560 and are smoothly conducted by the usage of a low catalyst loading, a new available ligand, and a green solvent. A variety of functional groups are tolerated, and the application occurs with α-aryl-esters to access nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) on the gram scale.

Aryl or heteroaryl methoxylation reaction method

The invention discloses an aryl or heteroaryl methoxylation reaction method. The method comprises the following steps: preparing a substrate. The coupling agent, ligand, solvent, catalyst and base are mixed homogeneously in an inert gas to give the aryl or heteroaryl methoxy compounds. Compared with a methoxylation reaction method in the prior art, the method has the advantages that the reaction system conditions are mild, the usage amount of the catalyst and the ligand is low to 5% of the amount of the substrate material, and the catalytic efficiency is improved. The method has better compatibility to different substrate expansion and discovery of aryl halides or heteroaryl halides with different functional groups. The yield of aryl or heteroaryl methoxy compounds prepared by the method disclosed by the invention is 36% - 89%.

Reagent Design and Ligand Evolution for the Development of a Mild Copper-Catalyzed Hydroxylation Reaction

Parallel synthesis and mass-directed purification of a modular ligand library, high-throughput experimentation, and rational ligand evolution have led to a novel copper catalyst for the synthesis of phenols with a traceless hydroxide surrogate. The mild reaction conditions reported here enable the late-stage synthesis of numerous complex, druglike phenols.

Copper-Catalyzed Hydroxylation of (Hetero)aryl Halides under Mild Conditions

The combination of Cu(acac)2 and N,N′-bis(4-hydroxyl-2,6-dimethylphenyl)oxalamide (BHMPO) provides a powerful catalytic system for hydroxylation of (hetero)aryl halides. A wide range of (hetero)aryl chlorides bearing either electron-donating or -withdrawing groups proceeded well at 130 °C, delivering the corresponding phenols and hydroxylated heteroarenes in good to excellent yields. When more reactive (hetero)aryl bromides and iodides were employed, the hydroxylation reactions completed at relatively low temperatures (80 and 60 °C, respectively) at low catalytic loadings (0.5 mol % Cu).

CuI/Oxalic Diamide Catalyzed Coupling Reaction of (Hetero)Aryl Chlorides and Amines

A class of oxalic diamides are found to be effective ligands for promoting CuI-catalyzed aryl amination with less reactive (hetero)aryl chlorides. The reaction proceeds at 120 °C with K3PO4 as the base in DMSO to afford a wide range of (hetero)aryl amines in good to excellent yields. The bis(N-aryl) substituted oxalamides are superior ligands to N-aryl-N′-alkyl substituted or bis(N-alkyl) substituted oxalamides. Both the electronic nature and the steric property of the aromatic rings in ligands are important for their efficiency.

Synthesis of quaternary carbon stereocenters by copper-catalyzed asymmetric allylic substitution of allyl phosphates with arylboronates

A copper-catalyzed asymmetric allylic substitution of γ,γ- disubstituted allyl phosphates with arylboronates has been developed for the construction of quaternary stereocenters. High regio- and enantioselectivities have been achieved by employing a hydroxy-bearing chiral N-heterocyclic carbene ligand, and both E and Z substrates provide the same enantiomer as the major product. The mechanistic aspect of this catalysis has also been investigated to find that a 1:1 copper/ligand complex is most likely responsible for the present asymmetric catalysis, and the reaction proceeds with almost perfect 1,3-anti stereochemistry with respect to the allylic electrophile.

Dinuclear tin(II) complex of a bulky cis-oxamide: Synthesis, characterization, crystal structure, and DFT studies

The reaction of the di-lithiated oxamide of 1 with two equivalents of SnCl2 provided the tin trans-oxamide 3. In solution, spectroscopic analysis suggests exclusively the formation of a trans-oxamide (trans-3). However, the solid state shows an

Synthesis and structural investigations of Ni(II)- and Pd(II)-coordinated α-diimines with chlorinated backbones

Novel square planar Pd(II) α-diimines [PdX2{ArN{double bond, long}C(Cl)}2], where Ar = C6H5, (2,6-Me2C6H3), (2,6-iPr2C6H3) and X = Cl or Br, and the octahedral Ni(II) complex [NiBr2{(C6H5)N{double bond, long}C(Cl)}2(THF)2] have been prepared and characterised by spectroscopic methods. For two of the Pd(II) complexes and the Ni(II) complex the crystal structures were determined by X-ray crystallography. A further insight into the geometry and electronic structure of [PdBr2{(2,6-Me2C6H3)N{double bond, long}C(Cl)}2] was gained using density functional theoretical calculations (DFT). This compound resembles structurally and electronically typical olefin polymerisation pre-catalysts supported by α-diimines incorporating methyl- and 1,8-naphtalenyl substituents at the ligand backbone. The chlorine-substituted backbone of the free ligand [2,6-Me2C6H3N{double bond, long}C(Cl)]2 can be employed in further alkylation reactions to generate new multifunctional ligand prototypes with potential uses as ansa-metallocene/diimines building blocks for catalytic applications of heterobimetallic complexes.

New osmium-based reagent for the dihydroxylation of alkenes

The cis dihydroxylation of alkenes is most efficiently accomplished by reaction with osmium tetroxide. Recently, the expense and toxicity of osmium tetroxide have led to a number of attempts to harness alternative osmium-based reagents, including microencapsulation and solid support techniques. We describe here the development of a new nonvolatile, stable, and recoverable osmium-based reagent devised for the stoichiometric cis dihydroxylation of alkenes. Although attempts to make this new dihydroxylation work with catalytic amounts of this reagent were unsuccessful, we did develop a sensitive test for free osmium tetroxide leached from the reagent in situ: this test may well have uses in probing future applications of derivatized osmium reagents.
