Catalytic Asymmetric Construction of Tertiary Carbon Centers Featuring an α-Difluoromethyl Group with CF2H-CH2-NH2as the "building Block"

We report here for the first time a novel difluoromethylated ketimine building block condensed by thioisatin and difluoroethylamine, offering efficient access to a broad range of enantioenriched products bearing difluoroethylamine units (27 examples, ≤98% yield, >99% ee) in the presence of quinine-derived squaramide. Further transformation of the intermediate would generate a variety of versatile functional blocks like α-difluoromethyl amines, β-amino acid, and β-diamine with retention of the enantiomeric excess at the difluoromethyl-bound carbon.

Exploiting the chiral ligands of bis(Imidazolinyl)-and bis(oxazolinyl)thiophenes—Synthesis and application in Cu-catalyzed friedel–crafts asymmetric alkylation

Five new C2-symmetric chiral ligands of 2,5-bis(imidazolinyl)thiophene (L1–L3) and 2,5-bis(oxazolinyl)thiophene (L4 and L5) were synthesized from thiophene-2,5-dicarboxylic acid (1) with enantiopure amino alcohols (4a–c) in excellent optical purity and chemical yield. The util-ity of these new chiral ligands for Friedel–Crafts asymmetric alkylation was explored. Subse-quently, the optimized tridentate ligand L5 and Cu(OTf)2 catalyst (15 mol%) in toluene for 48 h promoted Friedel–Crafts asymmetric alkylation in moderate to good yields (up to 76%) and with good enantioselectivity (up to 81% ee). The bis(oxazolinyl)thiophene ligands were more potent than bis(imidazolinyl)thiophene analogues for the asymmetric induction of the Friedel–Crafts asymmetric alkylation.

Preparation method of beta-trans-nitroolefin

The invention relates to a preparation method of beta-trans-nitroolefin. The method comprises: sequentially adding an olefin compound, a nitration reagent and a solvent into a reaction container, mixing the substances uniformly, and carrying out constant temperature reaction for 18h under an illumination condition to obtain a reaction solution; and sequentially carrying out drying, concentration and column chromatography treatment on the reaction solution to obtain the beta-trans-nitroolefin compound. The method is simple and practicable, low in cost and high in product yield, can realize large-scale production, and has good industrial application prospects in the aspects of functional organic material, bioactive compound and drug synthesis.

Co-Polymeric Nanosponges from Cellulose Biomass as Heterogeneous Catalysts for amine-catalyzed Organic Reactions

Heterogeneous catalysts prepared from biomass waste sources are attracting increasing interest. The reasons rely on the possibility of combining the virtuous approach of circular economy with the consolidated advantages of heterogeneous catalysis, namely the recycling of the system and the possibility to drive selectivity towards desired products. Herein we report a highly porous cellulose-based nanosponge (CNS) and its use as a recoverable catalyst for Henry and Knoevenagel reactions, two classical amino-catalyzed transformations. The material is obtained by cross-linking between TEMPO-oxidized cellulose nanofibers (TOCNF) and branched polyethyleneimine 25 kDa (bPEI) in the presence of citric acid. CNS have been developed as sorbent materials for water remediation but their use as heterogeneous catalysts was never investigated. The fully characterized micro- and nano-porous system guarantees a complete penetration of CNS, allowing reagents to diffuse within. Indeed, by modulating reaction conditions (catalyst loading, temperature, solvent, microwave versus conventional heating, relative ratio of reagents) it was possible to drive selectivity towards the desired products, while maintaining high efficiency in terms of conversion. The catalyst could be re-used several times without losing in catalytic efficiency. In most cases the products’ distribution is quite different from homogeneous conditions, this much more emphasizing the importance of this heterogeneous solution.

Metal-free, room temperature, acid-K2S2O8 mediated method for the nitration of olefins: An easy approach for the synthesis of nitroolefins

Here, we have developed a simple, room temperature method for the nitration of olefins by using inexpensive sodium nitrite as a source of nitro groups in the presence of trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) and potassium persulfate (K2S2O8) under an open atmosphere. Styrenes and mono-substituted olefins give stereo-selective corresponding E-nitroolefins under optimized conditions, however, 1,1-bisubstituted olefins give a mixture of E- and Z-nitroolefins. The optimized conditions work well with electron-donating, electron-withdrawing, un-substituted and heterocyclic styrenes and mono-substituted olefins and give corresponding nitroolefins with good to excellent yields.

Synthetic Diversity from a Versatile and Radical Nitrating Reagent

We leverage the slow liberation of nitrogen dioxide from a newly discovered, inexpensive succinimide-derived reagent to allow for the C?H diversification of alkenes and alkynes. Beyond furnishing a library of aryl β-nitroalkenes, this reagent provides unparalleled access to β-nitrohydrins and β-nitroethers. Detailed mechanistic studies strongly suggest that a mesolytic N?N bond fragmentation liberates a nitryl radical. Using in situ photo-sensitized, electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy, we observed direct evidence of a nitryl radical in solution by nitrone spin-trapping. To further exhibit versatility of N-nitrosuccinimide under photoredox conditions, the late-stage diversification of an extensive number of C?H partners to prepare isoxazolines and isoxazoles is presented. This approach allows for the formation of an in situ nitrile oxide from a ketone partner, the presence of which is detected by the formation of the corresponding furoxan when conducted in the absence of a dipolarophile. This 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition with nitrile oxides and alkenes or alkynes proceeds in a single-operational step using a mild, regioselective, and general protocol with broad chemoselectivity.

A chiral bicyclic skeleton-tethered bipyridine-Zn(OTf)2 complex as a Lewis acid: Enantioselective Friedel-Crafts alkylation of indoles with nitroalkenes

A conformationally rigid chiral bicyclic skeleton tethered bipyridine-Zn(OTf)2 complex facilitated the enantioselective Friedel-Crafts alkylation of indoles with trans-β-nitroarylalkenes in an enantioselective manner at elevated temperature. Indoles reacted smoothly with β-nitroarylalkenes to generate the corresponding 3-(2-nitroalkyl)indoles in good to excellent yields (up to 94%) with moderate to excellent enantioselectivities (up to 91%). The stereochemical outcome of the product from indole and trans-β-nitrostyrene in the presence of the CRCB tethered bipyridine-Zn(OTf)2 complex and the DFT calculation of the CRCB tethered bipyridine-Zn:trans-β-nitrostyrene complex support the si-face attack of indole on trans-β-nitrostyrene.

Iodine monobromide catalysed regioselective synthesis of 3-arylquinolines from α-aminoacetophenones and: Trans -β-nitrostyrenes

A simple and efficient method for regioselective synthesis of 3-arylquinolines is described from α-aminoacetophenones and trans-β-nitrostyrenes using 20 mol% iodine monobromide as a catalyst in acetonitrile solvent at 80 °C. The present method involves tandem reaction of α-aminoacetophenones and trans-β-nitrostyrenes, formation of two new C-C bonds and cleavage of one C-C bond in a single step. The salient features of the protocol are metal- and oxidant-free reaction conditions, broad substrate scope, and good yields.

Combined Photoredox/Enzymatic C?H Benzylic Hydroxylations

Chemical transformations that install heteroatoms into C?H bonds are of significant interest because they streamline the construction of value-added small molecules. Direct C?H oxyfunctionalization, or the one step conversion of a C?H bond to a C?O bond, could be a highly enabling transformation due to the prevalence of the resulting enantioenriched alcohols in pharmaceuticals and natural products,. Here we report a single-flask photoredox/enzymatic process for direct C?H hydroxylation that proceeds with broad reactivity, chemoselectivity and enantioselectivity. This unified strategy advances general photoredox and enzymatic catalysis synergy and enables chemoenzymatic processes for powerful and selective oxidative transformations.
