Pd-Catalyzed Autotandem Reactions with N-Tosylhydrazones. Synthesis of Condensed Carbo- and Heterocycles by Formation of a C-C Single Bond and a C-C Double Bond on the Same Carbon Atom

A new Pd-catalyzed autotandem reaction is introduced that consists of the cross-coupling of a benzyl bromide with a N-tosylhydrazone followed by an intramolecular Heck reaction with an aryl bromide. During the process, a single and a double C-C bond are formed on the same carbon atom. Two different arrangements for the reactive functional groups are possible, rendering great flexibility to the transformation. The same strategy led to 9-methylene-9H-fluorenes, 9-methylene-9H-xanthenes, 9-methylene-9,10-dihydroacridines, and also dihydropyrroloisoquinoline and dihydroindoloisoquinoline derivatives.

Experimental evidence of the occurrence of intramolecular electron transfer in catalyzed 1,2-dioxetane decomposition

The activation parameters for the thermal decomposition of 13 acridinium-substituted 1,2-dioxetanes, bearing an aromatic moiety, were determined and their chemiluminescence emission quantum yields estimated, utilizing in situ photosensitized 1,2-dioxetane generation and observation of its thermal decomposition kinetics, without isolation of these highly unstable cyclic peroxides. Decomposition rate constants show linear free-energy correlation for electron-withdrawing substituents, with a Hammett reaction constant of Φ = 1.3 ± 0.1, indicating the occurrence of an intramolecular electron transfer from the acridinium moiety to the 1,2-dioxetane ring, as postulated by the intramolecular chemically initiated electron exchange luminescence (CIEEL) mechanism. Emission quantum yield behavior can also be rationalized on the basis of the intramolecular CIEEL mechanism, additionally evidencing its occurrence in this transformation. Both relations constitute the first experimental evidence for the occurrence of the postulated intramolecular electron transfer in the catalyzed and induced decomposition of properly substituted 1,2-dioxetanes.
