Visible Light Accelerated Vinyl C–H Arylation in Pd-Catalysis: Application in the Synthesis of ortho Tetra-substituted Vinylarene Atropisomers

A visible light accelerated C–H functionalization reaction in palladium-catalyzed arylation of vinyl arenes with diaryliodonium salts is reported in the absence of additional photosensitizer. The kinetic isotope effect (kH/kD) was ch

Copper-Catalyzed Selective N-Arylation of Oxadiazolones by Diaryliodonium Salts

Here, we report the method for copper-catalyzed N-arylation of diverse oxadiazolones by diaryliodonium salts under mild conditions in high yields (up to 92%) using available CuI as a catalyst. The developed method allows utilizing both symmetric and unsymmetric diaryliodonium salts bearing auxiliary groups such as 2,4,6-trimethoxyphenyl (TMP). We found that the steric effects in aryl moieties determined the chemoselectivity of N- and O-arylation of the 1,2,4-oxadiazol-5(4H)-ones. Mesityl-substituted diaryliodonium salts demonstrated the high potential as a selective arylation reagent. The structural study suggests that steric accessibility of N-atom in 1,2,4-oxadiazol-5(4H)-ones impact to arylation with sterically hindered diaryliodonium salts. The synthetic application of proposed method was also demonstrated on selective arylation of 1,3,4-oxadiazol-2(3H)-ones and 1,2,4-oxadiazole-5-thiol. (Figure presented.).

Reengineering Chemical Glycosylation: Direct, Metal-Free Anomeric O-Arylation of Unactivated Carbohydrates

To sustain innovation in glycobiology, effective routes to well-defined carbohydrate probes must be developed. For over a century, glycosylation has been dominated by the formation of the anomeric Csp3?O acetal junction in glycostructures. A dissociative mechanistic spectrum spanning SN1 and SN2 is frequently operational thereby reducing the efficiency. By reengineering this fundamental process, an orthogonal disconnection allows the acetal to be formed directly from the reducing sugar without the need for substrate pre-functionalisation. The use of stable aryliodonium salts facilitates a formal O?H functionalisation reaction. This allows lactols to undergo mild, metal-free O-arylation at ambient temperature. The efficiency of the transformation has been validated using a variety of pyranoside and furanoside monosaccharides in addition to biologically relevant di- and trisaccharides (up to 85 %). Fluorinated mechanistic probes that augment the anomeric effect were employed. It is envisaged that this strategy will prove expansive for the construction of complex acetals under substrate-based stereocontrol.

Flow Synthesis of Diaryliodonium Triflates

A safe and scalable synthesis of diaryliodonium triflates was achieved using a practical continuous-flow design. A wide array of electron-rich to electron-deficient arenes could readily be transformed to their respective diaryliodonium salts on a gram scale, with residence times varying from 2 to 60 s (44 examples).

Well-Defined, Shelf-Stable (NHC)Ag(CF2H) Complexes for Difluoromethylation

The preparation of the thermally stable, well-defined NHC-ligated difluoromethylated silver complexes 1a,b is described. The complexes were fully characterized, and the structural assignments were ambiguously further confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Reactions of [(SIPr)Ag(CF2H)] with a variety of activated electrophiles such as diaryliodonium salts, vinyl(aryl)iodonium salts, aryldiazonium salts, and acid chlorides in the presence or absence of CuI occurred smoothly at room temperature to generate difluoromethylated compounds in good to excellent yields.

Arylation with unsymmetrical diaryliodonium salts: A chemoselectivity study

Phenols, anilines, and malonates have been arylated under metal-free conditions with twelve aryl(phenyl)iodonium salts in a systematic chemoselectivity study. A new "anti-ortho effect" has been identified in the arylation of malonates. Several "dummy groups" have been found that give complete chemoselectivity in the transfer of the phenyl moiety, irrespective of the nucleophile. An aryl exchange in the diaryliodonium salts has been observed under certain arylation conditions. DFT calculations have been performed to investigate the reaction mechanism and to elucidate the origins of the observed selectivities. These results are expected to facilitate the design of chiral diaryliodonium salts and the development of catalytic arylation reactions that are based on these sustainable and metal-free reagents.

Metal-free arylation of oxygen nucleophiles with diaryliodonium salts

Phenols and carboxylic acids are efficiently arylated with diaryliodonium salts. The reaction conditions are mild, metal free, and avoid the use of halogenated solvents, additives, and excess reagents. The products are obtained in good-to-excellent yields after short reaction times. Steric hindrance is very well tolerated, both in the nucleophile and diaryliodonium salt. The scope includes ortho- and halo-substituted products, which are difficult to obtain by metal-catalyzed protocols. Many functional groups are tolerated, including carbonyl groups, heteroatoms, and alkenes. Unsymmetric salts can be chemoselectively utilized to obtain products with hitherto unreported levels of steric congestion. The arylation has been extended to sulfonic acids, which can be converted to sulfonate esters by two different approaches. With recent advances in efficient synthetic procedures for diaryliodonium salts the reagents are now inexpensive and readily available. The iodoarene byproduct formed from the iodonium reagent can be recovered quantitatively and used to regenerate the diaryliodonium salt, which improves the atom economy. Copyright

Efficient and general one-pot synthesis of diaryliodonium triflates: Optimization, scope and limitations

Symmetrical and unsymmetrical diaryliodonium triflates have been synthesized from both electron-deficient and electron-rich arenes and aryl iodides with mCPBA and triflic acid. A thorough investigation of the optimization, scope and limitations has resulted in an improved one-pot protocol that is fast, high-yielding, and operationally simple. The reaction has been extended to the direct synthesis of symmetrical iodonium salts from iodine and arenes, conveniently circumventing the need for aryl iodides.
