Indium-catalyzed direct chlorination of alcohols using chlorodimethylsilane-benzil as a selective and mild system
Yasuda, Makoto,Yamasaki, Satoshi,Onishi, Yoshiyuki,Baba, Akio
, p. 7186 - 7187 (2004)
The InCl3-catalyzed reaction of alcohols with chlorodimethylsilane (HSiMe2Cl) in the presence of benzil gave the corresponding organic chlorides under mild conditions. Benzil significantly changes the reaction course because the reducing product through dehydroxyhydration was obtained in the absence of benzil. The secondary or tertiary alcohols were effectively chlorinated. The substrates bearing acid-sensitive functional groups were also applied to this system. The highly selective chlorination of the tertiary site was observed in the competitive reaction between tertiary and primary alcohols. The highly coordinated hydrosilane generated from benzil and HSiMe2Cl is an important intermediate. Copyright
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

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.

Vicarious Nucleophilic Chloromethylation of Nitroaromatics
Khutorianskyi, Viktor V.,Klepetá?ová, Blanka,Beier
, p. 5443 - 5446 (2019)
Nitroaromatics substituted with electron-acceptor or electron-donor groups undergo vicarious nucleophilic substitution with the lithium salt of dichloromethane to provide chloromethyl-substituted nitroaromatics in good to high yields. The methodology represents a new strategy for the synthesis of benzyl chlorides.
Promotion of Appel-type reactions by N-heterocyclic carbenes
Hussein, Mohanad A.,Nguyen, Thanh Vinh
, p. 7962 - 7965 (2019)
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.
N -Hydroxyphthalimide/benzoquinone-catalyzed chlorination of hydrocarbon C-H bond using N -chlorosuccinimide

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.
Synthetic Strategy and Performances of a UV-Curable Poly Acryloyl Phosphinate Flame Retardant by Carbene Polymerization
Yu, Jia,Li, Minglei,Yu, Yong,Gao, Yanjing,Liu, Jiancheng,Sun, Fang
, p. 1958 - 1970 (2015)
A route to synthesize poly ethyl (4-acrylamidebenzyl) phosphinate (PPAC) was discussed and the optimal route was determined. Diethyl benzylphosphonate was synthesized by Arbuzov reaction, then, a nitryl was introduced onto the aromatic ring by the nitration reaction of ethyl benzylphosphonate. Subsequently the carbene polymerization of the product was carried out. Finally, the nitryls were reduced and amidated to introduce the acryloyl group into the prepolymer to obtain the target product (PPAC). PPAC can rapidly photopolymerize under UV light irradiation. The addition of PPAC decreased the smoke production rate (SPR), CO2 production (CO2P), and CO production (COP) of the UV-cured resin.

Described herein is the direct chlorination of carboxylic acids using copper(II) chloride via a gallium(III)-catalyzed reduction in the presence of a hydrosiloxane. During this reductive chlorination, the counteranions of CuCl2 functioned as a chloride source.
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.

NMP-mediated chlorination of aliphatic alcohols has been developed for the synthesis of alkyl chlorides. This facile, efficient and practical approach used simple and readily available aryl sulfonyl chlorides as the chlorination reagent for the construction of C–Cl bond in good to excellent yields with mild conditions and broad substrate scope.
Bambusurils Bearing Nitro Groups and Their Further Modifications
Yawer, Mirza Arfan,Sleziakova, Kristina,Pavlovec, Lukas,Sindelar, Vladimir
, p. 41 - 47 (2018)
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.
