Visible-light photoredox-catalyzed selective carboxylation of C(sp3)?F bonds with CO2

It is highly attractive and challenging to utilize carbon dioxide (CO2), because of its inertness, as a nontoxic and sustainable C1 source in the synthesis of valuable compounds. Here, we report a novel selective carboxylation of C(sp3)?F bonds with CO2 via visible-light photoredox catalysis. A variety of mono-, di-, and trifluoroalkylarenes as well as α,α-difluorocarboxylic esters and amides undergo such reactions to give important aryl acetic acids and α-fluorocarboxylic acids, including several drugs and analogs, under mild conditions. Notably, mechanistic studies and DFT calculations demonstrate the dual role of CO2 as an electron carrier and electrophile during this transformation. The fluorinated substrates would undergo single-electron reduction by electron-rich CO2 radical anions, which are generated in situ from CO2 via sequential hydride-transfer reduction and hydrogen-atom-transfer processes. We anticipate our finding to be a starting point for more challenging CO2 utilization with inert substrates, including lignin and other biomass.

A Series of Deoxyfluorination Reagents Featuring OCF2Functional Groups

Research on perfluoroalkyl ether carboxylic acids (PFECAs) as alternatives for perfluoroalkyl substances continues with the goal of protecting the environment. However, very little is known about the utilization of decomposition products of PFECAs. We report herein a new series of deoxyfluorination reagents featuring OCF2 functional groups derived from certain PFECAs. Alkyl fluorides were generated from various alcohols in ≤97% yield by these novel reagents. The mechanistic experiment verified in situ generation of carbonic difluoride (COF2).

Fluorination reagent and deoxygenation fluorination method

In order to overcome the problems of high cost and poor stability of the existing deoxidation fluorination reagent, the invention provides a fluorination reagent. The fluorination reagent comprises acation M and an anion, and the anion is selected from one or more of the following perfluoropolyether chain carboxylic acid anions: CF3 (OCF2) nCO2, and n is selected from 1-10. Meanwhile, the invention further discloses a deoxidation fluorination method. The fluorination reagent provided by the invention has the advantages that the materials are easy to obtain, the fluorination products can beobtained at higher yield for various alcohol substrates, and the universality for different alcohol substrates is better.

Cobalt-Catalyzed Asymmetric Cross-Coupling Reaction of Fluorinated Secondary Benzyl Bromides with Lithium Aryl Boronates/ZnBr2

A cobalt-catalyzed asymmetric cross-coupling of α-bromo-α-fluorotoluene derivatives with a variety of aryl zincates derived from lithium aryl n-butyl pinacol boronates and ZnBr2 under mild reaction conditions was described. In addition to mild reaction conditions, another advantage includes the compatibility of various common functional groups such as fluoride, chloride, bromide, cyano, or ester groups. Furthermore, this protocol was successfully applied to the enantioselective synthesis of three fluorinated derivatives of biologically active compounds or drug molecules.

Denitrogenative hydrofluorination of aromatic aldehyde hydrazones using (difluoroiodo)toluene

An operationally simple conversion of aromatic aldehyde hydrazones to monofluoromethylated arenes is reported.

Facile Access to Fluoromethylated Arenes by Nickel-Catalyzed Cross-Coupling between Arylboronic Acids and Fluoromethyl Bromide

The nickel-catalyzed fluoromethylation of arylboronic acids was achieved with the industrial raw material fluoromethyl bromide (CH2FBr) as the coupling partner. The reaction proceeded under mild reaction conditions with high efficiency; it features the use of a low-cost nickel catalyst, synthetic simplicity, and excellent functional-group compatibility, and provides facile access to fluoromethylated biologically relevant molecules. Preliminary mechanistic studies showed that a single-electron-transfer (SET) pathway is involved in the catalytic cycle.

Selective electrolytic fluorinations in 70% HF/30% pyridine

The selective fluorination of compounds containing benzylic hydrogen atoms was accomplished by electrolysis in a mixture of 70% HF and 30% pyridine (Olah's reagent) using a square wave alternating current (1.76-2.75 V, 0.02-0.05 Hz) and Pt electrodes. This method can be used in the laboratory to prepare conveniently gram-size quantities of monofluorinated products. An ion radical mechanism has been proposed.
