Method for synthesizing beta-bromostyrene through metal-free catalysis

The invention discloses a method for synthesizing beta-bromostyrene through metal-free catalysis, and belongs to the technical field of organic chemistry. Substituted styrene 1 is used as a raw material and is reacted in the presence of a bromination reagent, sodium persulfate and dichloroethane, and the beta-bromostyrene compound 2 can be obtained in one step. The method is capable of solving thetechnical problem that in the traditional synthesis method, conversion into alkenyl boron, alkenyl silicon and other intermediates under the catalysis of noble metals and then further halogenation are needed; the defects of expensive reaction reagent, high catalytic cost, complex operation, incapability of large-scale preparation and the like in the traditional preparation method are avoided; byadopting the method, a series of beta-bromostyrene compounds can be obtained, and the method has a potential application prospect.

Facile Synthesis of β-Bromostyrenes by Direct Bromination of Styrenes with N -Bromosuccinimide and Sodium Persulfate

A new, direct, efficient, and transition-metal-free method is reported for the synthesis of β-bromostyrenes from styrenes by using N -bromosuccinimide as the brominating reagent and sodium persulfate (Na 2S 2O 8) as the oxidant. This convenient and concise reaction is practical, operationally simple, and can be adapted for large-scale syntheses.

Photocatalytic Isomerization of Styrenyl Halides: Stereodivergent Synthesis of Functionalized Alkenes

An efficient and general method for the isomerization of styrenyl halides under different photocatalytic conditions (fac-Ir(ppy)3 in methanol for E to Z isomerization and fluorescein in 1,4-dioxane for Z to E isomerization, respectively) is disclosed. A series of stereospecific transformations constitute preliminary validation of this strategy in the synthesis of functionalized alkenes, including two diaryl alkenes, a styrenyl boronic ester and an enyne. The photocatalytic isomerization and subsequent cross coupling reaction can be run in a one-pot manner. The stereodivergent synthesis of all four isomers of a conjugated diene, as well as the antitumor agent DMU-212 and its (Z)-isomer highlights the synthetic applicability of this method.

A Simplified Protocol for the Stereospecific Nickel-Catalyzed C-S Vinylation Using NiX 2 Salts and Alkyl Phosphites

A Ni-catalyzed C-S cross-coupling using only NiI 2 (0.5-2.5 molpercent) and P(O i Pr) 3 (2.0-10.0 molpercent) is reported. Using an air-stable Ni(II) precatalyst, and a cheap and commercially available ligand, a scalable and robust method was developed to cross-couple various thiophenols and styryl bromides, including some sterically encumbered thiols, an α-bromocinnamaldehyde as well as a thiolation-cyclization.

TsNBr2 promoted decarboxylative bromination of α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids

A rapid process for decarboxylative bromination of α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids have been developed using N,N-dibromo-p-toluenesulfonamide (TsNBr2). Treatment of cinnamic acids with TsNBr2 in presence of potassium carbonate in acetonitrile produces corresponding β-bromostyrenes at room temperature. Exclusive formation of (E)-β-bromostyrenes was observed in a stereoselective manner within a very short period of time (5–15 min). This method was further extended for obtaining 1-bromoalkynes from corresponding propiolic acids. Instantaneous formation of bromoalkynes was observed when the reaction was carried out in presence of DBU as a base in acetonitrile at room temperature. A wide variety of cinnamic acids and propiolic acids could be converted to corresponding β-bromostyrenes and 1-bromoalkynes respectively under mild reaction condition with high to excellent yield.

Palladium-Catalyzed Domino Reaction for Stereoselective Synthesis of Multisubstituted Olefins: Construction of Blue Luminogens

The first Pd-catalyzed multicomponent reaction of aryl iodides, alkenyl bromides, and strained alkenes has been developed, which allowed us to synthesize a variety of multisubsituted olefins in yields of 45-96% with excellent stereoselectivity. The configuration of the product was controlled by the configuration of the alkenyl bromides. Moreover, this practical methodology employing readily available substrates was found to be tolerant to a wide range of functional groups. Fifty six examples of highly stereoselective tri- or tetrasubstituted olefins have been successfully synthesized via this methodology. Most of the synthesized tetrasubstituted olefins are good aggregation-induced emission (AIE) luminogens.

Decarboxylative bromination of α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids via an anodic oxidation

A novel bromination of α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids was developed via a decarboxylation by virtue of a direct anodic electro-oxidation. In this method, ammonium bromide was employed as a bromine source and the reaction features transition-metal-free, short time, and no additional supporting electrolyte.

Synthesis and biological evaluation of polyenylpyrrole derivatives as anticancer agents acting through caspases-dependent apoptosis

A class of polyenylpyrroles and their analogues were designed from a hit compound identified in a fungus. The compounds synthesized were evaluated for their cell cytotoxicity against human non-small-cell lung carcinoma cell lines A549. Two compounds were found to exhibit high cytotoxicity against A549 cells with IC50 of 0.6 and 0.01 μM, respectively. The underlying mechanisms for the anticancer activity were demonstrated as caspases activation dependent apoptosis induction through loss of mitochondrial membrane potential, release of cytochrome c, increase in B-cell lymphoma-2-associated X protein (Bax) level, and decrease in B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2) level. The two compounds were nontoxic to normal human lung Beas-2b cells (IC50 > 80 μM), indicating that they are highly selective in their cytotoxicity activities. Furthermore, one compound showed in vivo anticancer activity in human-lung-cancer-cell-bearing mice. These results open promising insights on how these conjugated polyenes mediate cytotoxicity and may provide a molecular rationale for future therapeutic interventions in carcinogenesis.
