Metal-Free Aryl Cross-Coupling Directed by Traceless Linkers

The metal-free, highly selective synthesis of biaryls poses a major challenge in organic synthesis. The scope and mechanism of a promising new approach to (hetero)biaryls by the photochemical fusion of aryl substituents tethered to a traceless sulfonamide linker (photosplicing) are reported. Interrogating photosplicing with varying reaction conditions and comparison of diverse synthetic probes (40 examples, including a suite of heterocycles) showed that the reaction has a surprisingly broad scope and involves neither metals nor radicals. Quantum chemical calculations revealed that the C?C bond is formed by an intramolecular photochemical process that involves an excited singlet state and traversal of a five-membered transition state, and thus consistent ipso–ipso coupling results. These results demonstrate that photosplicing is a unique aryl cross-coupling method in the excited state that can be applied to synthesize a broad range of biaryls.

Synthesis of 2-substituted benzo[: B] thiophenes via gold(i)-NHC-catalyzed cyclization of 2-alkynyl thioanisoles

Benzo[b]thiophene heterocycles are important components of many important small molecule pharmaceuticals and drug candidates as well as organic semiconducting materials. Many methods have been developed for the construction of a benzo[b]thiophene core via cyclization reaction of alkynes. Although few catalytic reactions were disclosed, most methods rely on stoichiometric activation of alkynes. Here we report an efficient method for the synthesis of 2-substituted benzo[b]thiophenes from 2-alkynyl thioanisoles catalyzed by a gold(i)-IPr hydroxide that is applicable to a wide range of substrates with diverse electronic and steric properties. Additionally, we demonstrate experimentally that the acid additive and its conjugate base are essential to catalyst turnover.

Ag(I)-C-H Activation Enables Near-Room-Temperature Direct α-Arylation of Benzo[ b]thiophenes

The first example of near-room-temperature α-arylation of benzo[b]thiophenes is reported. The discovery rests on the observation of a switch in α-/β-regioselectivity at different loadings of Pd2(dba)3·CHCl3 in the coupling between benzo[b]thiophene and 4-iodotoluene. We show that this unprecedented regioselectivity switch is driven by a Ag(I)-mediated C-H activation at the α-C-H position, which becomes the dominant mode of reactivity at low concentrations of Pd. Competition experiments, kinetic studies, KIE, and D/H scrambling experiments have been carried out supporting this mechanism.

Room-temperature arylation of arenes and heteroarenes with diaryliodonium salts by photoredox catalysis

Aryl radicals produced by irradiation of diaryliodonium salts with visible light under the catalysis of [Ru(bpy)3]2+ undergo coupling with a wide range of arenes and heteroarenes, affording various biaryls through direct C-H arylation at room temperature. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart · New York.
