Coupling of thiols and aromatic halides promoted by diboron derived super electron donors

We have proven that pyridine-boryl complexes can be used as superelectron donors to promote the coupling of thiols and aromatic halides through a SRN1 mechanism. The reaction is efficient for a broad substrate scope, tolerating heterocycles including pyridines, enolizable or reducible functional groups. The method has been applied to intermediates in drug synthesis as well as interesting functionalized polythioethers through a controlled and consecutive intramolecular electron transfer process.

PHOTOCATALYST-FREE, LIGHT-INDUCED CARBON-SULFUR CROSS-COUPLING METHODS

In one aspect, the invention provides a method of promoting a carbon-sulfur bond forming reaction. In certain embodiments, the reaction comprises cross-coupling of a(n) (hetero)aryl halide with a thiol to form the carbon-sulfur bond, wherein the method is promoted by light irradiation in the absence of a photocatalyst. In other embodiments, the cross-coupling reaction can be promoted through visible light irradiation, including sunlight.

Visible-light-promoted C-S cross-coupling via intermolecular charge transfer

Disclosed is a mild, scalable, visible-lightpromoted cross-coupling reaction between thiols and aryl halides for the construction of C-S bonds in the absence of both transition metal and photoredox catalysts. The scope of aryl halides and thiol partners includes over 60 examples and therefore provides an entry point into various aryl thioether building blocks of pharmaceutical interest. Furthermore, to demonstrate its utility, this C-S coupling protocol was applied in drug synthesis and latestage modifications of active pharmaceutical ingredients. UV-vis spectroscopy and time-dependent density functional theory calculations suggest that visible-lightpromoted intermolecular charge transfer within the thiolate-aryl halide electron donor-acceptor complex permits the reactivity in the absence of catalyst.

SINGLE-STEP SYNTHESIS METHOD OF ARYL THIOL AND APPLICATION THEREOF

The present invention relates to a single-step synthesis method of aryl thiol, and more specifically, to a method of synthesizing aryl thiol in a single-step by making aryl halide react with alkane dithiol in the presence of a transition metal catalyst. According to the present invention, a single-step synthesis method using the transition metal catalyst, the synthesis method which is capable of synthesizing aryl thiol from aryl halide at a high yield, can be provided. Various aryl halides may be applied to the synthesis method. Further, the synthesis method has advantages that an easily usable reagent may be used, operations are simple, and reactions can be performed under mild conditions. In addition, the synthesized aryl thiol may be used in the synthesis of advanced molecules such as diaryl sulfides and benzothiophenes.COPYRIGHT KIPO 2017

Copper(II)-Catalyzed Single-Step Synthesis of Aryl Thiols from Aryl Halides and 1,2-Ethanedithiol

A highly efficient transition metal-catalyzed single-step synthesis of aryl thiols from aryl halides has been developed employing copper(II) catalyst and 1,2-ethanedithiol. The key features are use of readily available reagents, a simple operation, and relatively mild reaction conditions. This new protocol shows a broad substrate scope with excellent functional group compatibility. A variety of aryl thiols are directly prepared from aryl halides in high yields. Furthermore, the aryl thiols are used in situ for the synthesis of more advanced molecules such as diaryl sulfides and benzothiophenes.

Cu-catalyzed carbon-heteroatom coupling reactions under mild conditions promoted by resin-bound organic ionic bases

Resin-bound organic ionic bases (RBOIBs) were developed in which tetraalkyl-ammonium or phosphonium cations are covalently attached to solid resins. The application tests showed that the performance of the tetraalkyl-ammonium-type RBOIBs is slightly better than that of the corresponding Cs salts in Cu-catalyzed C-N cross-couplings, while the tetraalkylphosphonium-type RBOIBs are significantly better than all the inorganic bases. With these newly developed RBOIBs, room-temperature Cu-catalyzed C-Ncoupling with various nonactivated aryl iodides and even aryl bromides can be readily accomplished. Moreover, RBOIBs can be easily recycled and reused for a number of times without much drop of activity. The good performances of RBOIBs are proposed to arise from the relatively weak binding forces between the cationic polymer backbone and basic anions, as opposed to the strong metal-anion interactions in the inorganic bases. Further applications of RBOIBs in Ni-catalyzed Suzuki-type couplings at room temperature, Cu-catalyzed C-N couplings at -30 °C, a Pd-catalyzed Heck reaction at 60 °C, and Cu-catalyzed C-S couplings at room temperature demonstrate that RBOIBs are generally applicable bases with improved performance for many other types of organic transformations.
