Thiourea-Mediated Halogenation of Alcohols
Mohite, Amar R.,Phatake, Ravindra S.,Dubey, Pooja,Agbaria, Mohamed,Shames, Alexander I.,Lemcoff, N. Gabriel,Reany, Ofer
, p. 12901 - 12911 (2020/11/26)
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.

N-Heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) have been extensively used as a versatile class of catalysts and ligands in organocatalytic and organometallic chemistry. However, there are only a small number of synthetic applications where they act as reagents. Here we demonstrate that NHCs can be used as stoichiometric redox reagents for Appel-type halogenation reactions of alcohols. This new reactivity reveals a fresh and interesting aspect and enriches the chemistry of NHCs in an underexplored area. The potential of performing this chemical transformation at the catalytic level using an NHC-oxide derivative is also investigated.
Nucleophilic Substitutions of Alcohols in High Levels of Catalytic Efficiency

supporting information, p. 2980 - 2983 (2018/05/28)
A practical method for the nucleophilic substitution (SN) of alcohols furnishing alkyl chlorides, bromides, and iodides under stereochemical inversion in high catalytic efficacy is introduced. The fusion of diethylcyclopropenone as a simple Lewis base organocatalyst and benzoyl chloride as a reagent allows notable turnover numbers up to 100. Moreover, the use of plain acetyl chloride as a stoichiometric promotor in an invertive SN-type transformation is demonstrated for the first time. The operationally straightforward protocol exhibits high levels of stereoselectivity and scalability and tolerates a variety of functional groups.

Page/Page column 182; 183; 185, (2017/01/02)
The present invention relates to a method of converting an alcohol into a corresponding halide. This method comprises reacting the alcohol with an optionally substituted aromatic carboxylic acid halide in presence of an N-substituted formamide to replace a hydroxyl group of the alcohol by a halogen atom. The present invention also relates to a method of converting an alcohol into a corresponding substitution product. The second method comprises: (a) performing the method of the invention of converting an alcohol into the corresponding halide; and (b) reacting the corresponding halide with a nucleophile to convert the halide into the nucleophilic substitution product.
Halogen Exchange Reaction of Aliphatic Fluorine Compounds with Organic Halides as Halogen Source
Mizukami, Yuki,Song, Zhiyi,Takahashi, Tamotsu
, p. 5942 - 5945 (2016/01/09)
The halogen exchange reaction of aliphatic fluorine compounds with organic halides as the halogen source was achieved. Treatment of alkyl fluorides (primary, secondary, or tertiary fluorides) with a catalytic amount of titanocene dihalides, trialkyl aluminum, and polyhalomethanes (chloro or bromo methanes) as the halogen source gave the corresponding alkyl halides in excellent yields under mild conditions. In the case of a fluorine/iodine exchange, no titanocene catalyst is needed. Only C-F bonds are selectively activated under these conditions, whereas alkyl chlorides, bromides, and iodides are tolerant to these reactions.

A versatile heterogeneous photocatalysis protocol was developed by using ruthenium bipyridyl tethered porous organosilica (Ru-POS). The versatility of the Ru-POS catalyst in organo-photocatalysis was explored by (i) oxidative aromatization of Hantzsch ester, (ii) reductive dehalogenation of alkyl halides, and (iii) functional group interconversion (FGI) of alcohols to alkyl halides.

Synthesis of some acyclic quaternary ammonium compounds. Alkylation of secondary and tertiary amines in a two-phase system
Kharlamov,Artyushin,Bondarenko
, p. 2445 - 2454 (2015/08/03)
A series of acyclic symmetrical and asymmetrical quaternary ammonium chlorides of the general formula R1R2R3N+AR4Cl- (R1 = Me, Bu; R2 = n-C12H25, PhCH2, C n H2n+1(OCH2CH2) m, n = 9 and 12, m = 1 and 2; R3 = n-C12H25, PhCH2, HOCH2CH2,-OOCCH2; R4 = n-C12H25, PhCH2; A = (CH2CH2O)1,2, CH2C(O)O) was synthesized by the alkylation of tertiary amines in a two-phase system containing water. A convenient method for the synthesis of the initial symmetrical and asymmetrical tertiary amines of the general formula MeNR1R2 (R1 = Me, Bu; R2 = n-C12H25, PhCH2, CnH2n+1(OCH2CH2) m, n = 9 and 12, m = 1 and 2) in an organic phase-aqueous phase heterogeneous system, which allows the use of aqueous solutions of alkali and amines, was developed. The improved method for the preparation of intermediate ethylene glycol and diethylene glycol monoethers is monoalkylation of glycols in dioxane using solid KOH in a two-phase system.
Efficient procedures to prepare primary and secondary alkyl halides from alkanols via the corresponding sulfonates under mild conditions

The study presented herein shows that sulfonate/halide exchange can be advantageously performed in THF to avoid several side reactions such as elimination and epimerization when the reaction is performed from a chiral alkyl sulfonate or a substrate having a C-H acidic chiral center. The main limitation of this procedure was found to be the conversion of secondary alkyl sulfonates to alkyl chlorides. In this case, the addition of a catalytic amount of manganese chloride clearly accelerates the rate and the efficiency of the reaction. Copyright
Arylsulfur trifluorides: Improved method of synthesis and use as in situ deoxofluorination reagents
Xu, Wei,Martinez, Henry,Dolbier Jr., William R.
experimental part, p. 482 - 488 (2011/08/03)
Building on recent results of Umemoto and Winter, an improved method of synthesis of arylsulfur trifluorides, including the excellent, new deoxofluorination reagent Fluolead, is hereby reported. The method utilizes Br2 and KF as oxidizing and fluorinating reagents for efficient, high yield conversion of aryl disulfides and mercaptans to arylsulfur trifluorides. It has also been shown that both Fluolead and mesitylsulfur trifluoride may be generated in acetonitrile and used as in situ deoxofluorination reagents for conversion of either aldehydes or ketones to their respective gem-difluoro compounds. An analysis of the probable mechanism of action, including computational efforts, allows postulation of a rationale for the highly variable reactivities of different arylsulfur trifluorides as deoxofluorination reagents.

A triphasic phase-vanishing (PV) system comprised of an alkane, perfluorohexanes, and bromine was successfully combined by photoirradiation to efficiently generate hydrogen bromide, which underwent radical addition with 1-alkenes in the hydrocarbon layer to afford terminal bromides in high yields.
