Nucleophilic aryl fluorination and aryl halide exchange mediated by a CuI/CuIII catalytic cycle

Copper-catalyzed halide exchange reactions under very mild reaction conditions are described for the first time using a family of model aryl halide substrates. All combinations of halide exchange (I, Br, Cl, F) are observed using catalytic amounts of Cus

Synthesis of potentially carcinogenic higher oxidized metabolites of dibenz[a,j]anthracene and benzo[c]chrysene

Bis(dihydrodiols) and other higher oxidized metabolites are implicated as active carcinogenic metabolites of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, such as dibenz[a,j]anthracene, that possess more than one bay region in the molecule. The bis(dihydrodiol) metabolites may potentially undergo further metabolism to mono- or diepoxides that combine covalently with DNA or undergo conversion to bis(catechols) that enter into a redox cycle with O2 to form reactive oxygen species that attack DNA. This paper reports convenient syntheses of the terminal ring bis(dihydrodiol) derivatives of dibenz[a,j]anthracene (5) and benzo[c]chrysene (6) via routes that involve in the key steps double oxidative photocyclization of tetramethoxy-substituted diolefins. The latter are synthesized via double Wittig reaction of a bis(phosphonium) salt with 2,3-dimethoxybenzaldehyde. Demethylation of the bis(catechol) products followed by acetylation and reduction with NaBH4 in the presence of O2 affords the bis(dihydrodiol) products. Several additional higher oxidized derivatives of dibenz[a,j]anthracene, specifically the 3,11- diphenol (14a), the 11-hydroxy-3,4-quinone (15), and the 11-hydroxy-trans- 3,4-dihydrodiol (2c), are obtained by an alternative synthesis entailing the reaction of the lithium salt of 1,4-dimethoxy-1,4-cyclohexadiene with 1,3- bis(iodoethyl)benzene to furnish a bis-alkylated diketone which undergoes acid-catalyzed cyclization to 3,11-diketododecahydrodibenz[a,j]anthracene.
