We describe here a convenient and mild procedure for double carbonylation of o-dibromobenzenes with various 2-amino pyridines and naturally occurring amines, thus providing in good to excellent yields N-substituted phthalimides by using this palladium-catalyzed carbonylation procedure. Furthermore, for the first time we have applied the developed synthetic protocol for the synthesis of biologically active molecule thalidomide via a single step carbonylative cyclization reaction in excellent yield. the Partner Organisations 2014.

An efficient nano-Cu2O-catalyzed cascade multicomponent reaction of 2-halobenzoic acids and trimethylsilyl cyanide with diverse amines was developed using water as a solvent, affording versatileN-substituted phthalimide derivatives in moderate to excellent yields. This novel strategy features carbon monoxide gas-free, environmentally benign, one-pot multistep transformation, commercially available reagents, a cheap catalyst without any additives, wide functional group tolerance, and operational convenience.

The site-selective trifluoromethylation of aliphatic systems remains an important challenge. This work describes a light-driven, copper-mediated trifluoromethylation of O-alkyl thiocarbonates. The reaction provides broad functional group tolerance (e.g., alkyne, alkene, phenol, free alcohol, electron-rich and -deficient arenes), thereby offering orthogonality and practicality for trifluoromethylation. A radical organometallic mechanism is proposed.

The introduction of a trifluoromethyl (CF3) group can dramatically improve a compound’s biological properties. Despite the well-established importance of trifluoromethylated compounds, general methods for the trifluoromethylation of alkyl C–H bonds remain elusive. Here we report the development of a dual-catalytic C(sp3)–H trifluoromethylation through the merger of light-driven, decatungstate-catalysed hydrogen atom transfer and copper catalysis. This metallaphotoredox methodology enables the direct conversion of both strong aliphatic and benzylic C–H bonds into the corresponding C(sp3)–CF3 products in a single step using a bench-stable, commercially available trifluoromethylation reagent. The reaction requires only a single equivalent of substrate and proceeds with excellent selectivity for positions distal to unprotected amines. To demonstrate the utility of this new methodology for late-stage functionalization, we have directly derivatized a broad range of approved drugs and natural products to generate valuable trifluoromethylated analogues. Preliminary mechanistic experiments reveal that a ‘Cu–CF3’ species is formed during this process and the critical C(sp3)–CF3 bond-forming step involves the copper catalyst.
