Annulative π-Extension of Unactivated Benzene Derivatives through Nondirected C-H Arylation

Annulative π-extension chemistry provides a concise synthetic route to polycyclic arenes. Herein, we disclose a nondirected annulation approach of unactivated simple arenes. The palladium-catalyzed 2-fold C-H arylation event facilitates tandem C-C linkage relays to furnish fully benzenoid triphenylene frameworks using cyclic diaryliodonium salts. The inseparable regioisomeric mixture of 1- and 2-methyltriphenylenes is identified by the combined analysis of ion mobility-mass spectrometry, gas-phase infrared spectroscopy, and molecular simulation studies.

Two-in-One Strategy for the Pd(II)-Catalyzed Tandem C-H Arylation/Decarboxylative Annulation Involved with Cyclic Diaryliodonium Salts

We report here a two-in-one strategy for the Pd(II)-catalyzed tandem C-H arylation/decarboxylative annulation between readily available cyclic diaryliodonium salts and benzoic acids. The carboxylic acid functionality can be used as both a directing group for the ortho-C-H arylation and the reactive group for the tandem decarboxylative annulation. By a step-economical double cross-coupling annulation procedure, the privileged triphenylene frameworks were efficiently constructed, which have potential applications in material chemistry.

Palladium Catalyzed C-I and Vicinal C-H Dual Activation of Diaryliodonium Salts for Diarylations: Synthesis of Triphenylenes

Using the synthetic strategy of palladium-catalyzed dual activation of both C-I and vicinal C-H bonds of diaryliodonium salts, we report an approach for direct diarylations of 2-bromobiphenyls or bromobenzenes. As a result, a wide range of triphenylenes with various substituents have been synthesized in good yields. These triphenylenes are expected to be employed in the "bottom-up" synthesis of functional aromatic molecules in material science.

Synthesis of Functionalized Triphenylenes via a Traceless Directing Group Strategy

A novel ligand-free Pd-catalyzed cascade reaction between o-chlorobenzoic acids and cyclic diaryliodonium salts is reported. This one-pot procedure involves a carboxylic acid directed o-arylation followed by intramolecular decarboxylative annulation affording various valuable triphenylenes, which can be further transformed into diversified building blocks for material chemistry. For the first time, it was shown that an aromatic halide can react with diaryliodonium salts under the direction of carboxylic acid functionality. It was also demonstrated that the carboxylic acid could be employed as both a traceless directing group and functional handle for the atom- and step-economical one-pot double cross-coupling annulation reaction with cyclic diaryliodonium salts as the π-extending agents.

C-C Bond (Hetero)arylation of Ring-Fused Benzocyclobutenols and Application in the Assembly of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons

Herein, we disclose a new and efficient synthetic approach to triphenylene-based polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) from ring-fused benzocyclobutenols (RBCBs) through the cleavage of the C-C σ-bond. Two key transformations are involved: (a) palladium-catalyzed C-C bond (hetero)arylation of RBCBs; and (b) Lewis acid-promoted intramolecular annulation leading to complex polycyclic compounds. A variety of multiply substituted triphenylenes and derivatives are obtained in synthetically useful yields.

Synthesis of Triphenylenes Starting from 2-Iodobiphenyls and Iodobenzenes via Palladium-Catalyzed Dual C-H Activation and Double C-C Bond Formation

A novel and facile approach for the synthesis of triphenylenes has been developed via palladium-catalyzed coupling of 2-iodobiphenyls and iodobenzenes. The reaction involves dual palladium-catalyzed C-H activations and double palladium-catalyzed C-C bond formations. A range of unsymmetrically functionalized triphenylenes can be synthesized with the reaction. The approach features readily available starting materials, high atom- and step-economy, and access to various unsymmetrically functionalized triphenylenes.

Transition-Metal-Free Synthesis of Homo- and Hetero-1,2,4-Triaryl Benzenes by an Unexpected Base-Promoted Dearylative Pathway

An unprecedented approach for the synthesis of homo- and hetero-1,2,4-triaryl benzenes has been developed using a simple base-mediated reaction of either α-aryl cinnamyl alcohols or α,γ-di-aryl propanones. The salient feature of this strategy involves the sequential hydride transfer, regiospecific condensation, regiospecific dearylation, and aromatization under metal-free reaction conditions. The synthesis of unsymmetrically substituted triphenylenes by oxidative coupling of the synthesized 1,2,4-triaryl benzenes has also been demonstrated.

Synthesis of Multisubstituted Triphenylenes and Phenanthrenes by Cascade Reaction of o-Iodobiphenyls or (Z)-β-Halostyrenes with o-Bromobenzyl Alcohols through Two Sequential C-C Bond Formations Catalyzed by a Palladium Complex

o-Bromobenzyl alcohol has been developed as a novel annulating reagent, bearing both nucleophilic and electrophilic substituents, for the facile synthesis of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. A palladium/electron-deficient phosphine catalyst efficiently coupled o-iodobiphenyls or (Z)-β-halostyrenes with o-bromobenzyl alcohols to afford triphenylenes and phenanthrenes, respectively. The present cascade reaction proceeded through deacetonative cross-coupling and sequential intramolecular cyclization. An array of experimental data suggest that the reaction mechanism involves the equilibrium of 1,4-palladium migration.

Highly regioselective syntheses of substituted triphenylenes from 1,2,4-trisubstituted arenes via a Co-catalyzed intermolecular alkyne cyclotrimerization

Herein, we report the development of a new method for the syntheses of substituted triphenylenes from the corresponding 1,2,4-trisubstituted arenes, which were themselves generated in a highly regioselective manner according to an intermolecular alkyne cyclotrimerization reaction that was catalyzed by a novel Co-TMTU complex. This highly regioselective reaction for the formation of 1,2,4-trisubstituted arenes will be a valuable addition to the plethora of tools already available to synthetic chemists and encourage further mechanistic studies of this important alkyne trimerization process.

Palladium-catalyzed annulation of o-iodobiphenyls with o-bromobenzyl alcohols: Synthesis of functionalized triphenylenes via C-C and C-H bond cleavages

Treatment of o-iodobiphenyls with o-bromobenzyl alcohols in the presence of cesium carbonate under palladium catalysis affords a series of highly substituted triphenylenes. The reaction involves two C-C bond formations and C-C and C-H bond cleavages. A combination of palladium and an electron-deficient phosphine ligand proves to be effective for both decarbonylative cross-coupling and intramolecular cyclization.
