Boron insertion into alkyl ether bonds via zinc/nickel tandem catalysis

, (2021)
Mild methods to cleave the carbon-oxygen (C?O) bond in alkyl ethers could simplify chemical syntheses through the elaboration of these robust, readily available precursors. Here we report that dibromoboranes react with alkyl ethers in the presence of a nickel catalyst and zinc reductant to insert boron into the C?O bond. Subsequent reactivity can effect oxygen-to-nitrogen substitution or one-carbon homologation of cyclic ethers and more broadly streamline preparation of bioactive compounds. Mechanistic studies reveal a cleavage-then-rebound pathway via zinc/nickel tandem catalysis.

The first systematic investigation of unactivated aliphatic sulfur compounds as electrophiles in transition-metal-catalyzed cross-coupling are described. Initial studies focused on discerning the structural and electronic features of the organosulfur substrate that enable the challenging oxidative addition to the C(sp3)-S bond. Through extensive optimization efforts, an Fe(acac)3-catalyzed cross-coupling of unactivated alkyl aryl thio ethers with aryl Grignard reagents was realized in which a nitrogen "directing group" on the S-aryl moiety of the thio ether served a critical role in facilitating the oxidative addition step. In addition, alkyl phenyl sulfones were found to be effective electrophiles in the Fe(acac) 3-catalyzed cross-coupling with aryl Grignard reagents. For the latter class of electrophile, a thorough assessment of the various reaction parameters revealed a dramatic enhancement in reaction efficiency with an excess of TMEDA (8.0 equiv). The optimized reaction protocol was used to evaluate the scope of the method with respect to both the organomagnesium nucleophile and sulfone electrophile.

, p. 34 - 40 (2007/10/03)
A method was developed for the synthesis of derivatives of 3-substituted pyrrolidines from activated alkenes by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of unstable 2-benzylazomethylide, generated in situ from N-benzyl-N-(methoxymethyl)-N- (trimethylsilyl)amine. A method was developed for the reduction of 4-(3-pyrrolidyl)pyridine, prepared by the above-mentioned method, to the corresponding derivatives of (3-pyrrolidyl)piperidine with high yields under mild conditions.

, p. 673 - 682 (2008/09/18)
A new efficient method for the N-cycloalkylation of primary amines with diols catalyzed by a Cp*Ir complex have been developed. A variety of five-, six-, and seven-membered cyclic amines are synthesized in good to excellent yields in environmentally benign and atom economical manner with the formation of only water as a coproduct. A large scale synthesis of N-benzylpiperidine and a two-step asymmetric synthesis of (S)-2-phenylpiperidine using (R)-1-phenylethylamine as a starting primary amine have been also achieved.

3-Arylpyrrolidines are synthesized through the coupling of N-benzyl-3-(methanesulfonyloxy)pyrrolidine with diarylcuprates. Pharmacological evaluation of a series of N-substituted-3-arylpyrrolidines toward several neurotransmitter receptors indicated that some of them are good ligands for serotonin 1A receptor. Particularly, N-pyrrolidines were found to be potent and selective ligands. A preliminary biological evaluation for several selected compounds indicated that they are potentially effective antianxiety and antidepressant agents.
