The Versatility of the Aryne-Imine-Aryne Coupling for the -Synthesis of Acridinium Photocatalysts

The increasing use of acridinium photocatalysts as sustainable alternative to precious metal-based counterparts encourages the design and efficient synthesis of distinct catalyst structures. Herein, we report our exploration of the scope of the aryne-imin

A Three-Phase Four-Component Coupling Reaction: Selective Synthesis of o-Chloro Benzoates by KCl, Arynes, CO2, and Chloroalkanes

A transition-metal-free three-phase four-component coupling reaction (3P-4CR) involving KCl, arynes, chloroalkanes and CO2 has been reported for the first time, enabling the incorporation of both chloro and CO2 into an aryne simultaneously. The reactions for the synthesis of different types of o-chloro benzoates can be selectively modulated by the chloroalkane utilized. The corresponding products can be alternatively transformed for postsynthetic functionalizations conveniently.

Trifluoromethyl aryl sulfonates (TFMS): An applicable trifluoromethoxylation reagent

Fluorine is probably another favorite hetero-atom for incorporation into small molecules after nitrogen. Among many fluorine-containing groups, trifluoromethyl aryl ethers (ArOCF3) have unique properties in drug design and are difficult to be synthesized, and many different methods were developed to prepare them. A novel one-pot synthesis of o-iodine-aryl trifluoromethyl ethers (ArOCF3I) was described by the reaction of trifluoromethoxylation and iodination with trifluoromethyl aryl sulfonates (TFMS) in this manuscript. The reaction conditions were optimized by screening different solvents, crown ethers, substrates and the ratios and the yields of products were in moderate to high yields (up to 86%).

Construction of Phenanthrenes and Chrysenes from β-Bromovinylarenes via Aryne Diels-Alder Reaction/Aromatization

A highly efficient transition-metal-free general method for the synthesis of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons like phenanthrenes and chrysenes (and tetraphene) from β-bromovinylarenes and arynes has been developed. The reactions proceed via an aryne Diels-Alder (ADA) reaction, followed by a facile aromatization. This is the first report on direct construction of chrysenes (and tetraphene) using the ADA approach. Unlike the literature method which is limited to only 9/10-substituted derivatives, this method gives access to a wide variety of functionalized phenanthrenes.

Tandem nucleophilic addition-cycloaddition of arynes with α-iminoesters: Two concurrent pathways to imidazolidines

The tandem nucleophilic addition-cycloaddition reaction has been developed for the synthesis of functionalized imidazolidine derivatives. A variety of α-iminoesters and aryne precursors were well tolerated under the mild reaction conditions. This asymmetric cycloaddition afforded imidazolidine derivatives with high yields, complete regioselectivities, and excellent diastereo- and enantioselectivities. Aryne-induced ylides working as 1,3-dipoles for asymmetric cycloaddition are the notable feature of the present reaction. In the tandem reaction, the [3+2] cycloaddition of aryne-induced ylides with metallized α-iminoesters and metal-catalyzed [3+2] cycloaddition of azomethine ylide with α-iminoesters are two concurrent pathways to imidazolidines.

Synthesis of 2-arylbenzofuran-3-carbaldehydes: via an organocatalytic [3+2] annulation/oxidative aromatization reaction

A novel organocatalytic [3+2] annulation/oxidative aromatization reaction of enals with 2-halophenols or β-naphthols is reported. This process enables chemo- and regioselective access to 2-arylbenzofuran-3-carbaldehydes without the use of transition metals or strong oxidants. Preliminary mechanistic studies reveal that an unprecedented, organocatalytic, direct α-arylation pathway is involved.

Indanol-Based Chiral Organoiodine Catalysts for Enantioselective Hydrative Dearomatization

Rapid development in the last decade has rendered chiral organoiodine(I/III) catalysis a reliable methodology in asymmetric catalysis. However, due to the severely limited numbers of effective organoiodine catalysts, many reactions still give low to modes

Practical, mild and efficient electrophilic bromination of phenols by a new I(iii)-based reagent: The PIDA-AlBr3 system

A practical electrophilic bromination procedure for phenols and phenol-ethers was developed under efficient and very mild reaction conditions. A broad scope of arenes was investigated, including the benzimidazole and carbazole core as well as analgesics such as naproxen and paracetamol. The new I(iii)-based brominating reagent PhIOAcBr is operationally easy to prepare by mixing PIDA and AlBr3. Our DFT calculations suggest that this is likely the brominating active species, which is prepared in situ or isolated after centrifugation. Its stability at 4 °C after preparation was confirmed over a period of one month and no significant loss of its reactivity was observed. Additionally, the gram-scale bromination of 2-naphthol proceeds with excellent yields. Even for sterically hindered substrates, a moderately good reactivity is observed.

Access to Air-Stable 1,3-Diphosphacyclobutane-2,4-diyls by an Arylation Reaction with Arynes

Tuning of the physicochemical properties of the 1,3-diphosphacyclobutane-2,4-diyl unit is attractive in view of materials applications. The use of arynes is shown to be effective for installing relatively electron rich aryl substituents into the open-shell singlet P-heterocyclic system. Treatment of the sterically encumbered 1,3-diphosphacyclobuten-4-yl anion with ortho-silylated aryl triflates in the presence of fluoride under appropriate conditions afforded the corresponding 1-aryl 1,3-diphosphacyclobutane-2,4-diyls. The air-stable open-shell singlet P-heterocycles exhibit considerable electron-donating character, and the aromatic substituent influences the open-shell character, which is thought to be related to the property of p-type semiconductivity. The P-arylated 1,3-diphosphacyclobutane-2,4-diyl systems can be further utilized as detectors of hydrogen fluoride (HF), which causes a remarkable change in their photoabsorption properties.
