Phosphine functionalized polyphosphazenes: soluble and re-usable polymeric reagents for highly efficient halogenations under Appel conditions
K?nig, Michael,Linhardt, Anne,Brüggemann, Oliver,Teasdale, Ian
, p. 1575 - 1582 (2016)
In this paper we present the preparation and application of a novel soluble phosphine functionalized polyphosphazene (poly[3-(diphenylphosphino)propylamino]phosphazene) and investigate its application as a polymeric reagent. Upon chlorination of the pendant phosphine groups, the polymer was found to facilitate the rapid and efficient transformation of alcohols to the corresponding chlorides and bromides under Appel-type conditions. Reaction times followed by 31P NMR spectroscopy are shown to be rapid (several minutes) and the yields for the transformation of alcohols to the corresponding halides are in the range 80–99?%. The facile recovery of the oxidized polymeric agent by precipitation is also described, offering a significant advantage over notoriously difficult to remove small molecule phosphine oxide by-products. Furthermore the regeneration of the reactive phosphine chloride pendant groups is demonstrated, which could be efficiently re-used in a further chlorination reaction.

The direct chlorination of C-H bonds has received considerable attention in recent years. In this work, a metal-free protocol for hydrocarbon C-H bond chlorination with commercially available N-chlorosuccinimide (NCS) catalyzed by N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHPI) with 2,3-dicyano-5,6-dichlorobenzoquinone (DDQ) functioning as an external radical initiator is presented. Aliphatic and benzylic substituents and also heteroaromatic ones were found to be well tolerated. Both the experiments and theoretical analysis indicate that the reaction goes through a process wherein NHPI functions as a catalyst rather than as an initiator. On the other hand, the hydrogen abstraction of the C-H bond conducted by a PINO species rather than the highly reactive N-centered radicals rationalizes the high chemoselectivity of the monochlorination obtained by this protocol as the latter is reactive towards the C(sp3)-H bonds of the monochlorides. The present results could hold promise for further development of a nitroxy-radical system for the highly selective functionalization of the aliphatic and benzylic hydrocarbon C-H.

Intramolecular Electron Transfer in the Anion Radicals of Nitrobenzyl Halides
Neta, P.,Behar, D.
, p. 4798 - 4802 (1980)
One-electron reduction of nitrobenzyl halides produces the anion radicals which subsequently undergo intramolecular electron transfer and decompose into nitrobenzyl radicals and halide ions.The optical absorption spectra of the initial anion radicals (λmax ca. 300-310 nm) and the subsequently formed nitrobenzyl radicals (λmax = 359 and 400 for the para and ortho, respectively) are quite intense (ε ca. 104 M-1 cm-1 in most cases) and significantly different.This enables identification of the various species and measurement of the rates of intramolecular electron transfer or C-X bond scission.The rates are 4*103, 1.7*105, and 5.7*105 s-1 for p-nitrobenzyl chloride, bromide, and iodide, respectively.The ortho derivatives decomposed nearly twice as rapidly while the meta decomposed much more slowly.The anion radical of p-nitrobenzyl bromide has pKa = 2.8, and the protonated form is found to undergo the intramolecular transfer ca. 60 times more slowly than the anion radical.The pattern of reactivity of the various anion radicals is rationalized in terms of spin density and charge distribution at the various positions on the ring and in terms of the electrophilicities of the halogens.
Bambusurils Bearing Nitro Groups and Their Further Modifications

Bambusurils are recently developed neutral anion receptors that show a high affinity towards many inorganic anions, not only in organic solvents but also in water. However, the number of water-soluble bambusurils and also those bearing functional groups is very limited. In this paper we report the synthesis of four- and six-membered bambusurils containing eight and twelve nitro groups. All the nitro groups on the bambusuril portals could be transformed into amino functions, which provided the macrocycles with water solubility and allowed their further modification. For example, we have demonstrated the conversion of amino groups on the bambusurils into the corresponding urea-functionalized bambusuril derivatives. We also report the first example of a bambusuril bearing only two functional groups, which was prepared by the condensation of two different glycolurils.
A Visible-Light-Induced α-H Chlorination of Alkylarenes with Inorganic Chloride under NanoAg@AgCl

An efficient, photocatalytic chlorination of alkylarene α-H groups using NaCl/HCl as a chlorine source has been developed, which involves a radical mechanism under visible-light (including sunlight) conditions. A chlorine radical is proposed to be formed by an electron transfer from chloride ion to O2 in air through the bandgap hole of the semiconductor AgCl. The chlorination protocol is characterized by its use of natural sunlight or other visible light, mild conditions, cheap source of chlorine, green solvent, and high selectivity. The yield of benzylchloride is 95 % with a toluene conversion as high as 40 %, which rivals traditional chlorination methods.

Tungsten hexachloride (WCl6) has been used for the halo-de-hydroxylation and dihalo-de-oxo-bisubstitution reactions of benzylic alcohols, benzaldehydes, acyloins, and epoxides to their chlorides, gem-dichlorides, vic-trichlorides, and vic-dichlorides respectively.

The halogenation of alcohols under mild conditions expedited by the presence of substoichiometric amounts of thiourea additives is presented. The amount of thiourea added dictates the pathway of the reaction, which may diverge from the desired halogenation reaction toward oxidation of the alcohol, in the absence of thiourea, or toward starting material recovery when excess thiourea is used. Both bromination and chlorination were highly efficient for primary, secondary, tertiary, and benzyl alcohols and tolerate a broad range of functional groups. Detailed electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) studies, isotopic labeling, and other control experiments suggest a radical-based mechanism. The fact that the reaction is carried out at ambient conditions, uses ubiquitous and inexpensive reagents, boasts a wide scope, and can be made highly atom economic, makes this new methodology a very appealing option for this archetypical organic reaction.
Visible Light-Catalyzed Benzylic C-H Bond Chlorination by a Combination of Organic Dye (Acr+-Mes) and N-Chlorosuccinimide

By combining "N-chlorosuccinimide (NCS)"as the safe chlorine source with "Acr+-Mes"as the photocatalyst, we successfully achieved benzylic C-H bond chlorination under visible light irradiation. Furthermore, benzylic chlorides could be converted to benzylic ethers smoothly in a one-pot manner by adding sodium methoxide. This mild and scalable chlorination method worked effectively for diverse toluene derivatives, especially for electron-deficient substrates. Careful mechanistic studies supported that NCS provided a hydrogen abstractor "N-centered succinimidyl radical,"which was responsible for the cleavage of the benzylic C-H bond, relying on the reducing ability of Acr?-Mes.
