Palladium Complex Immobilized on Magnetic Nanoparticles Modified with 2-Aminopyridine Ligand: A Novel and Efficient Recoverable Nanocatalyst for C–S and C–Se Coupling Reactions

A novel, versatile and efficient magnetically recoverable palladium nanocatalyst [Fe3O4@SiO2/2-aminopyridine-Pd(II)] was fabricated via the immobilization of palladium(II) complex on the surface of magnetic nanoparticles modified with 2-aminopyridine ligand. The structure of the as-fabricated Fe3O4@SiO2/2-aminopyridine-Pd(II) nanocomposite was characterized by a series of spectroscopic techniques including FT-IR, SEM, TEM, EDX, TGA, XRD, VSM and ICP-OES techniques. The Fe3O4@SiO2/2-aminopyridine-Pd(II) nanocomposite was utilized under mild and eco-friendly conditions in C–S and C–Se coupling reactions to afford a vast variety of diaryl sulfides and diaryl selenides with good to excellent yields. This heterogeneous palladium catalyst can be magnetically separated and reused for at least 7 consecutive trials without any reduction in activity.

Metal-free C-Se cross-coupling enabled by photoinduced inter-molecular charge transfer

Metal-free C-Se cross-couplingsviathe formation of electron-donor-acceptor (EDA) complexes have been developed. The visible-light induced reactions can be applied for the synthesis of a series of unsymmetrical diaryl selenides employing aryl bromides, aryl iodides as well as aryl chlorides under mild reaction conditions. The scale-up was readily achieved. UV-Vis spectroscopy measurements provide insight into the reaction mechanism.

Electrochemical Thiolation and Borylation of Arylazo Sulfones with Thiols and B2pin2

An efficient electrochemical synthesis approach of various unsymmetrical thioethers and arylboronates has been developed. Bench stable arylazo sulfones were used as radical precursors for carbon-heteroatom bond formation under electrochemical conditions. Moreover, the scalability of this approach was evaluated by performing the electrochemical thiolation and borylation of arylazo sulfones with thiols and B2pin2 on a gram scale. This protocol not only avoided the use of stoichiometric oxidants, metal catalysts, activating agents and even added bases, but also exhibited favorable functional group tolerance. (Figure presented.).

Forging C?S(Se) Bonds by Nickel-catalyzed Decarbonylation of Carboxylic Acid and Cleavage of Aryl Dichalcogenides

A nickel-catalyzed decarbonylation of carboxylic acids cross-coupling protocol has been developed for the straightforward C?S(Se) bond formation. This reaction is promoted by a commercially-available, user-friendly, inexpensive, air and moisture-stable nickel precatalyst. Various carboxylic acids and a wide range of aryl dichalcogenide substrates were tolerated in this process which afforded products in good to excellent yields. In addition, the present reaction can be conducted on gram scale in good yield.

Metal-Free Synthesis of Unsymmetrical Aryl Selenides and Tellurides via Visible Light-Driven Activation of Arylazo Sulfones

A protocol for the visible light driven preparation of unsymmetrical (hetero)aryl selenides and tellurides is described herein. The method exploits the peculiar photoreactivity of arylazo sulfones that act as thermally stable, precursors of aryl radicals under both photocatalyst- and additive-free conditions. The method developed shows an impressive versatility (more than fifty compounds isolated).

Copper-Silver Dual Catalyzed Decyanative C–Se Cross-Coupling

Traditionally, a metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction is governed by displacement of leaving groups such as halogens, tosylates, etc. by different nucleophiles leading to the formation of carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom bonds. Besides displacement of traditional leaving groups in coupling reactions decyanative cross-coupling has also received current attention. The objective of this work is to develop a decyanative cross-coupling through metal-assisted nucleophilic displacement, which is less explored so far. Thus, a decyanative cross-coupling of aryl selenocyanate with aryl-/alkylacetylenes, boronic acids and silanes has been accomplished by a copper-assisted nucleophilic displacement reaction for an easy access to a series of diaryl, aryl alkyl, aryl vinyl and aryl alkynyl selenides. The best yield of product was obtained using 5 mol% of Cu(OAc)2, Ag2CO3(20 mol%) and Cs2CO3(1 equiv.) at 100 °C for 8 h in N-methylpyrrolidinone (NMP). The advantages of simple operation, high yields and general applicability make this procedure more attractive. A mechanistic pathway has been proposed. Silver plays a key role in the decyanation process. A plausible mechanistic pathway of this decyanative carbon-selenium cross-coupling has been proposed based on UV, EPR, HR-MS and IR analytical data along with results obtained from control experiments. (Figure presented.).

Copper-catalyzed synthesis of unsymmetrical diorganyl chalcogenides (Te/Se/S) from boronic acids under solvent-free conditions?

The efficient and mild copper-catalyzed synthesis of unsymmetrical diorganyl chalcogenides under ligand- and solvent-free conditions is described. The cross-coupling reaction was performed using aryl boric acids and 0.5 equiv. of diorganyl dichalcogenides (Te/Se/S) in the presence of 3 mol % of CuI and 3 equiv. of DMSO, under microwave irradiation. This new protocol allowed the preparation of several unsymmetrical diorganyl chalcogenides in good to excellent yields.

Silver-catalyzed carbon-selenium cross-coupling using N-(phenylseleno)phthalimide: An alternate approach to the synthesis of organoselenides

Silver(I) catalyzed phenylselenylation of terminal alkynes and organoboronic acids has been demonstrated using N-(phenylseleno)phthalimide as an electrophilic SePh donor. A wide variety of terminal alkynes and organoboronic acids are selenylated efficiently to produce the corresponding alkynyl and diaryl selenides, respectively, in good yields. Silver(I) acts as a Lewis acid in this process.
