Here we describe the discovery of a new class of C-H borylation catalysts and their use for regioselective C-H borylation of aromatic, heteroaromatic, and aliphatic systems. The new catalysts have Ir-C(thienyl) or Ir-C(furyl) anionic ligands instead of the diamine-type neutral chelating ligands used in the standard C-H borylation conditions. It is reported that the employment of these newly discovered catalysts show excellent reactivity and ortho-selectivity for diverse classes of aromatic substrates with high isolated yields. Moreover, the catalysts proved to be efficient for a wide number of aliphatic substrates for selective C(sp3)-H bond borylations. Heterocyclic molecules are selectively borylated using the inherently elevated reactivity of the C-H bonds. A number of late-stage C-H functionalization have been described using the same catalysts. Furthermore, we show that one of the catalysts could be used even in open air for the C(sp2)-H and C(sp3)-H borylations enabling the method more general. Preliminary mechanistic studies suggest that the active catalytic intermediate is the Ir(bis)boryl complex, and the attached ligand acts as bidentate ligand. Collectively, this study underlines the discovery of new class of C-H borylation catalysts that should find wide application in the context of C-H functionalization chemistry.

Selective bioconjugation remains a significant challenge for the synthetic chemist due to the stringent reaction conditions required by biomolecules coupled with their high degree of functionality. The current trailblazer of transition-metal mediated bioconjugation chemistry involves the use of Pd(II) complexes prepared via an oxidative addition process. Herein, the preparation of Pd(II) complexes for cysteine bioconjugation via a facile C?H activation process is reported. These complexes show bioconjugation efficiency competitive with what is seen in the current literature, with a user-friendly synthesis, common Pd(II) sources, and a more cost-effective ligand. Furthermore, these complexes need not be isolated, and still achieve high conversion efficiency and selectivity of a model peptide. These complexes also demonstrate the ability to selectively arylate a single surface cysteine residue on a model protein substrate, further demonstrating their utility.

The triazole heterocycle has been widely adopted as an isostere for the amide bond. Many native amides are α-chiral, being derived from amino acids. This makes α-N-chiral triazoles attractive building blocks. This report describes the first enantioselective triazole synthesis that proceeds via nickel-catalyzed alkyne-azide cycloaddition (NiAAC). This dynamic kinetic resolution is enabled by a spontaneous [3,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement of the allylic azide. The 1,4,5-trisubstituted triazole products, derived from internal alkynes, are complementary to those commonly obtained by the related CuAAC reaction. Initial mechanistic experiments indicate that the NiAAC reaction proceeds through a monometallic Ni complex, which is distinct from the CuAAC manifold.

The homogenous, [IrCp?I2]2, SCRAM catalyst (1) is active in the racemization of chiral amines. NMR, kinetic and structural mechanistic studies have determined the cause of catalyst deactivation to occur when ammonia or methylamine are liberated by hydrolysis or aminolysis of the intermediate imine, which tightly coordinate to the iridium centre to block turnover. Control of moisture and substrate concentration can suppress deactivation, whilst partial reactivation of spent catalyst was identified using hydroiodic acid.

Paragraph 0021; 0053, (2021/07/09)
The invention relates to a preparation method of an N-alkylated derivative of a primary amine compound. The method comprises the following steps: uniformly mixing a primary amine compound, an alcohol compound and a catalyst in a reactor, and heating to react for a period of time to generate an N-alkylated substituted tertiary amine compound; wherein the catalyst is a copper-cobalt bimetallic catalyst, and the carrier of the catalyst is Al2O3. According to the method, alcohol is adopted as an alkylating reagent and is low in price and easy to obtain, a byproduct is water, no pollution is caused to the environment, and the overall reaction atom economy is high; the catalyst is simple in preparation method, low in cost, high in reaction activity and good in structural stability; meanwhile, by using the copper-cobalt bimetallic catalyst, the use of strong base additives can be avoided, and the requirement on reaction equipment is low; and the reaction post-treatment is convenient, and the catalyst can be recycled and is environment-friendly.

A ruthenium complex [(p-cymene)Ru(2,2′-bpyO)(H2O)] was found to be a general and efficient catalyst for the N-methylation of amines with methanol in the presence of carbonate salt. Moreover, a series of sensitive substituents, such as nitro, ester, cyano, and vinyl groups, were tolerated under present conditions. It was confirmed that OH units in the ligand are crucial for the catalytic activity. Notably, this research exhibited the potential of metal-ligand bifunctional ruthenium catalysts for the hydrogen autotransfer process.

The base-induced Sommelet–Hauser (S–H) rearrangement of N-(α-branched)benzylic glycine ester-derived ammonium salts 1 was investigated. When the α-branched substituent was a simple alkyl, such as a methyl or butyl, desired S–H rearrangement product 2 was obtained in low yield with formation of the [1,2] Stevens rearranged 4 and Hofmann eliminated products 5 and 6. However, when the α-branched substituent had a 2-oxy moiety, such as 2-acetoxyethyl or 2-benzoyloxyethyl, the yields of 2 were improved. These results could be explained by formation of chelated intermediate C that stabilizes the carbanionic ylide, and the subsequent initial dearomative [2,3] sigmatropic rearrangement would be accelerated. The existence of C was supported by mechanistic experiments. This enhancement effect is not very strong or effective; however, it will expand the synthetic usefulness of ammonium ylide rearrangements.

A new protocol for the synthesis of (enantioenriched) benzylic sulfones via the Cu2O-catalyzed C–S bond cross coupling of alkane-/arene-sulfinates and (enantioenriched) benzylic quaternary ammonium salts has been developed. The product benzylic sulfones were obtained in good to high yields (75–96%). Chiral arylmethyl sulfones with high enantiomeric excess (90–94% ee) were also synthesized in the presence of Cu2O and 1,1′-bis-(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene (dppf).

The transformation of acyl azide derivatives into N-methylamines was developed using methanol as the C1 source via the one-pot Curtius rearrangement and borrowing hydrogen methodology. Following this protocol, various functionalised N-methylated amines were synthesized using the (NNN)Ru(ii) complex from carboxylic acids via an acyl azide intermediate. Several kinetic studies and DFT calculations were carried out to support the mechanism and also to determine the role of the Ru(ii) complex and base in this transformation.

The N-methylation of amines with methanol in aqueous solution was proposed and accomplished by using a water-soluble metal-ligand bifunctional dinuclear iridium catalyst. In the presence of [(Cp*IrCl)2(thbpym)][Cl]2 (1 mol %), a range of desirable products were obtained in high yields under environmentally benign conditions. Notably, this research exhibited the potential of transition metal-catalyzed activation of methanol as a C1 source for the construction of the C-N bond in aqueous solution.
