HOMOGENEOUS PALLADIUM-CATALYSED ARYLATION OF ACTIVATED ALKENES WITH ARYL CHLORIDES
Spencer, Alwyn
, p. 115 - 120 (1984)
A study has been made of arylation of activated alkenes with aryl chlorides homogeneously catalysed by palladium acetate in the presence of triphenylphosphine or tri-p-tolylphosphine.Electron-withdrawing substituents in the aryl chloride favour the reaction.Only moderate yields could be obtained, and the maximum turnover number was 51, mainly because of precipitation of palladium metal.The probable mechanism of the reaction is discussed.

We have developed hypervalent iodine(iii) induced oxidative olefination of primary and secondary benzylamines using 2C-Wittig reagents, which provides easy access to α,β-unsaturated esters. Mild reaction conditions, good to excellent yields with high (E) selectivity, and a broad substrate scope are the key features of this reaction. We have successfully carried out the gram-scale synthesis of α,β-unsaturated esters.

Cinnamic acid derivatives (CAD's) represent a great alternative in the search for insecticides against Aedes aegypti mosquitoes since they have antimicrobial and insecticide properties. Ae. aegypti is responsible for transmitting Dengue, Chikungunya, and Zika viruses, among other arboviruses associated with morbimortality, especially in developing countries. In view of this, in vitro analyses of n-substituted cinnamic acids and esters were performed upon 4th instar larvae (L4) of Ae. aegypti, as well as, molecular docking studies to propose a potential biological target towards this mosquitoes species. The larvicide assays proved that n-substituted ethyl cinnamates showed a more pronounced activity than their corresponding acids, in which p-chlorocinnamate (3j) presented a LC50 value of 8.3 μg/mL. Thusly, external morphologic alterations (rigid and elongated body, curved bowel, and translucent or darkened anal papillae) of mosquitoes’ group exposed to compound 3j, were observed by microscopy. In addition, an analytical method was developed for the quantification of the most promising analog by using high-performance liquid chromatography with UV detection (HPLC-UV). Molecular docking studies suggested that the larvicide action is associated with inhibition of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) enzyme. Therefore, expanding the larvicidal study with the cinnamic acid derivatives against the vector Ae. aegypti is important for finding search for more effective larvicides and with lower toxicity, since they have already shown good larvicidal properties against Ae. aegypti.

Abstract: Several highly efficient and magnetically recyclable cobalt catalytic systems were prepared using magnetic chitosan and some safe and available organic compounds (Co-ligand@MNPs/Ch). The structure of these nanocomposites was confirmed by various physicochemical techniques such as FT-IR, XRD, TGA, VSM, TEM, SEM, CHNS and ICP-OES. These nano composites exhibit remarkable catalytic efficiency for Suzuki and Heck cross-coupling reactions in mild and green reaction conditions. The facile accessibility of starting materials, possible performance in air and eco-friendly conditions are merits of our catalysts. In addition, to describe and go insight to role and effect of ligands present in these catalysts, electrostatic interactions, density functional theory (DFT) model in molecular method were employed.

Abstract: 2,2′-Bipyridine was successfully integrated into the skeleton of hypercrosslinked polymers networks (HCPs-bipy) via Friedel–Crafts reaction and Scholl coupling reaction, and PdCl2 was locked in this network polymers by coordination with pyridine motif. The preparation of HCPs-bipy has the advantages of low cost, mild conditions, easy separation and high yield. FT-IR, TGA, N2 sorption, ICP, XPS, SEM, EDX and TEM was employed to characterize the structure and composition of the heterogeneous catalysts. The result indicates that HCPs-bipy-Pd possess high specific surface areas, large microporous volume, thermal stability, and highly dispersion of palladium species. HCPs-bipy-Pd can be applied in Suzuki–Miyaura reactions and Heck reactions as robust heterogeneous catalyst to afford high yield. The reusability test demonstrates that HCPs-bipy-Pd could be recovered and reused for at least five times without losing catalytic activity. Graphic Abstract: [Figure not available: see fulltext.].

By constructing an in vivo-assembled, catalytically proficient peroxidase, C45, we have recently demonstrated the catalytic potential of simple, de novo-designed heme proteins. Here, we show that C45's enzymatic activity extends to the efficient and stereoselective intermolecular transfer of carbenes to olefins, heterocycles, aldehydes, and amines. Not only is this a report of carbene transferase activity in a completely de novo protein, but also of enzyme-catalyzed ring expansion of aromatic heterocycles via carbene transfer by any enzyme.

The recently reported chemoselective reduction of phosphine oxides with 1,3-diphenyldisiloxane (DPDS) has opened up the possibility of additive-free phosphine oxide reductions in catalytic systems. Herein we disclose the use of this new reducing agent as an enabler of phosphorus redox recycling in Wittig, Staudinger, and alcohol substitution reactions. DPDS was successfully utilized in ambient-temperature additive-free redox recycling variants of the Wittig olefination, Appel halogenation, and Staudinger reduction. Triphenylphosphine-promoted catalytic recycling reactions were also facilitated by DPDS. Additive-free triphenylphosphine-promoted catalytic Staudinger reductions could even be performed at ambient temperature due to the rapid nature of phosphinimine reduction, for which we characterized kinetic and thermodynamic parameters. These results demonstrate the utility of DPDS as an excellent reducing agent for the development of phosphorus redox recycling reactions.

, p. 649 - 656 (2020/05/25)
The outcome of photosensitized [2+2]-cycloaddition reactions of various cinnamates has been compared in different reaction media, including homogeneous organic solutions under inert conditions, degassed water, and aerated physical gels. The reactions were performed under LED blue light (λmax=455 nm) irradiation and [Ir{dF(CF3)ppy}2(dtb-bpy)]PF6 (1.0 mol%) as photocatalyst. The processes were optimized taking into consideration solvent, gelator, and substrate. Comparative kinetics analyses, as well as the effect of the reaction media on the diastereoselectivity of the process, were evaluated during this investigation. In a number of cases, carrying out the reaction in a less polar solvent, like toluene or highly polar solvent, like water had a tremendous impact on the diastereoselectivity of the process, pointing towards an effect on the stabilization of the putative diradical intermediate in this medium. Moreover, while for reactions run in homogeneous solution oxygen needs to be excluded, no erosion in yield is observed when the photoadditions were run in aerated gel media.

Efficient catalytic arsa-Wittig reactions have been developed by using 1-phenylarsolane as a catalyst. A wide array of aldehydes was converted to the corresponding olefins in high yields with moderate to excellent E stereoselectivity in the presence of a catalytic amount of 1-phenylarsolane. Moreover, density functional theory calculations were carried out to afford insight into the E/Z selectivity.

Gold(I) can exhibit a cooperative effect with triphenylphosphine, accelerating the triphenylphosphine-mediated partial hydrogenation of activated alkynes. In this protocol, 3-arylpropiolates are selectively reduced to the Z -isomer when the aryl ring bears an electron-donor substituent, whereas 3-arylpropynones are reduced to the E-isomers.
