This article describes a detailed investigation of ligand effects on Ph-CF3 coupling from phosphinoferrocene-ligated PdII(Ph)(CF3) complexes. This study reveals that increasing the size of the phosphine substituents results in an enhanced rate of Ph-CF3 coupling, with (DtBPF)Pd(Ph)(CF3) (DtBPF = 1,1′-bis(di-tert-butylphosphino)ferrocene) being the most reactive complex. The mechanism of Ph-CF3 bond formation from both (DtBPF)Pd(Ph)(CF3) and (DiPrPF)Pd(Ph)(CF3) (DiPrPF = 1,1′-bis(diisopropylphosphino)ferrocene) was interrogated experimentally and computationally. These studies implicate a pathway involving concerted Ph-CF3 bond-forming reductive elimination from the four-coordinate PdII centers. An alternative pathway involving α-fluoride elimination and subsequent PhF2C-F coupling from PdII(CF2Ph)(F) intermediates was also evaluated but was ruled out based on DFT as well as the independent synthesis and reactivity studies of (DiPrPF)Pd(CF2Ph)(F).

The activation of aryl-Br bonds was achieved by sequential combination of a triplet-triplet annihilation process of the organic dyes, butane-2,3-dione and 2,5-diphenyloxazole, with a single-electron-transfer activation of aryl bromides. The photophysical and chemical steps were studied by time-resolved transient fluorescence and absorption spectroscopy with a pulsed laser, quenching experiments, and DFT calculations.

Photoredox catalysis has emerged as a powerful strategy in synthetic organic chemistry, but substrates that are difficult to reduce either require complex reaction conditions or are not amenable at all to photoredox transformations. In this work, we show that strong bis-cyclometalated iridium photoreductants with electron-rich β-diketiminate (NacNac) ancillary ligands enable high-yielding photoredox transformations of challenging substrates with very simple reaction conditions that require only a single sacrificial reagent. Using blue or green visible-light activation we demonstrate a variety of reactions, which include hydrodehalogenation, cyclization, intramolecular radical addition, and prenylationviaradical-mediated pathways, with optimized conditions that only require the photocatalyst and a sacrificial reductant/hydrogen atom donor. Many of these reactions involve organobromide and organochloride substrates which in the past have had limited utility in photoredox catalysis. This work paves the way for the continued expansion of the substrate scope in photoredox catalysis.

The use of organic photoredox catalysts provides new ways to perform metal-free reactions controlled by light. While these reactions are usually performed in organic media, the application of these catalysts at ambient temperatures in aqueous media is of considerable interest. We here compare the activity of two established organic photoredox catalysts, one based on 10-phenylphenothiazine (PTH) and one based on an acridinium dye (ACR), in the light-activated dehalogenation of aromatic halides in pure water. Both PTH and ACR were covalently attached to amphiphilic polymers that are designed to form polymeric nanoparticles with hydrodynamic diameter DH ranging between 5 and 11 nm in aqueous solution. Due to the hydrophobic side groups that furnish the interior of these nanoparticles after hydrophobic collapse, water-insoluble reagents can gather within the nanoparticles at high local catalyst and substrate concentrations. We evaluated six different amphiphilic polymeric nanoparticles to assess the effect of polymer length, catalyst loading and nature of the catalyst (PTH or ACR) in the dechlorination of a range of aromatic chlorides. In addition, we investigate the selectivity of both catalysts for reducing different types of aryl-halogen bonds present in one molecule, as well as the activity of the catalysts for C-C cross-coupling reactions. We find that all polymer-based catalysts show high activity for the reduction of electron-poor aromatic compounds. For electron-rich compounds, the ACR-based catalyst is more effective than PTH. In the selective dehalogenation reactions, the order of bond stability is C-Cl > C-Br > C-I irrespective of the catalyst applied. All in all, both water-compatible systems show good activity in water, with ACR-based catalysts being slightly more efficient for more resilient substrates.
