PyFluor: A low-cost, stable, and selective deoxyfluorination reagent

We report an inexpensive, thermally stable deoxyfluorination reagent that fluorinates a broad range of alcohols without substantial formation of elimination side products. This combination of selectivity, safety, and economic viability enables deoxyfluorination on preparatory scale. We employ the [18F]-labeled reagent in the first example of a no-carrier-added deoxy-radiofluorination.

Flow Chemistry Syntheses of Styrenes, Unsymmetrical Stilbenes and Branched Aldehydes

Two tandem flow chemistry processes have been developed. A single palladium-catalysed Heck reaction with ethylene gas provides an efficient synthesis for functionalised styrenes. Through further elaboration the catalyst becomes multi-functional and performs a second Heck reaction providing a single continuous process for the synthesis of unsymmetrical stilbenes. In addition, the continuous, rhodium-catalysed, hydroformylation of styrene derivatives with syngas affords branched aldehydes with good selectivity. Incorporation of an in-line aqueous wash and liquid-liquid separation allowed for the ethylene Heck reaction to be telescoped into the hydroformylation step such that a single flow synthesis of branched aldehydes directly from aryl iodides was achieved. The tube-in-tube semi-permeable membrane-based gas reactor and liquid-liquid separator both play an essential role in enabling these telescoped flow processes.

Concise synthesis of vinylheterocycles through β-elimination under solventless phase transfer catalysis conditions

Various vinylheterocycles compounds have been prepared in excellent yields through β-elimination of the corresponding sulfonate esters with 50% aq NaOH under phase transfer catalysis conditions without organic solvent. The new approach provides an economic and environmentally friendly solution to removal of hazardous bases as well as toxic and expensive dipolar aprotic solvents.

Photochemical reactivity of aromatic and heteroaromatic nitroderivatives in the presence of arylalkenes

The irradiation of styrene in the presence of nitroarenes in acetonitrile gives the corresponding nitrones in high yields. However, when 4-methyl-5-ethenylthiazole is used as arylalkene the starting material is converted to a pyrrole analogous of thianthrene. On the contrary, when 1,1-diphenylethylene is used, the main product observed is benzophenone. Nitrones are obtained only as minor products. An unusual coupling product, where a substitution reaction has occurred on the carbon bearing the nitro group, is also obtained. trans-Stilbene is unreactive under the same photochemical conditions, and it gives in low yields only benzaldehyde. Finally, indene gives, when aromatic nitro derivatives are used, only oxidation products, while, when heteroaromatic nitro derivatives are used, only substitution products on the nitro group are observed. The above described reactivity can be explained by using the results of AM1 semiempirical calculations on the frontier orbitals of the reagents. Both the nature of the LSOMO of the nitroarenes and the dipole moments of the reagents can account for the observed reactivity. The nitrone obtained in the photochemical reaction between styrene and nitrobenzene is used as starting material in a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction with styrene.
