We report herein that a borane-trimethylamine complex worked as an efficient reducing agent for the selective methylation and formylation of amines with 1 atm CO2 under metal-free conditions. 6-Amino-2-picoline serves as a highly efficient catalyst for the methylation of various secondary amines, whereas in its absence, the formylation of primary and secondary amines was achieved in high yield with high chemoselectivity. Mechanistic studies suggest that the 6-amino-2-picoline-borane catalytic system operates like an intramolecular frustrated Lewis pair to activate CO2.

A nickel-catalyzed amination of aryl chlorides with diverse amides via C-N bond cleavage has been realized under mild conditions. A broad substrate scope with excellent functional group tolerance at a low catalyst loading makes the protocol powerful for synthesizing various aromatic amines. The aryl chlorides could selectively couple to the amino fragments rather than the carbonyl moieties of amides. Our protocol complements the conventional amination of aryl chlorides and expands the usage of inactive amides.

We develop an electrochemical nickel-catalyzed aminomethylation of aryl bromides under mild conditions. The convergent paired electrolysis makes full use of anode and cathode processes, free of a terminal oxidant, a sacrificial anode, a metal reductant, and a prefunctionalized radical precursor. In addition, this method exhibits wide functional group tolerance (63 examples), including some sensitive substituents and aromatic heterocycles. This redox neutral cross coupling provides a more environmentally friendly and synthetic practical protocol for forging C(sp2)–C(sp3) bonds.

Sulfones feature prominently in biologically active molecules and are key functional groups for organic synthesis. We report a mild, photoredox-catalyzed reaction for sulfonylation of aniline derivatives with sulfinate salts, and demonstrate the utility of the method by the late-stage functionalization of drugs. Key features of the method are the straightforward generation of sulfonyl radicals from bench-stable sulfinate salts and the use of simple aniline derivatives as convenient readily available coupling partners.
Synthesis and biological evaluation of [18F]bicalutamide, 4-[76Br]bromobicalutamide, and 4-[76Br]bromo- thiobicalutamide as non-steroidal androgens for prostate cancer imaging

Androgen receptors (AR) are overexpressed in most primary and metastatic prostate cancers. To develop a nonsteroidal AR-mediated imaging agent, we synthesized and radiolabeled several analogs of the potent antiandrogen bicalutamide: [18F]bicalutamide, 4-[76Br] bromobicalutamide, and [76Br]bromo-thiobicalutamide. Two of these analogs, 4-[76Br]bromobicalutamide and [76Br]bromo- thiobicalutamide, were found to have a substantially increased affinity for the androgen receptor (AR) compared to that of bicalutamide. The synthesis of [ 18F]bicalutamide utilized a pseudocarrier approach to effect addition of a carbanion generated from tracer-level amounts of a radiolabeled precursor to an unlabeled carbonyl precursor. 4-[76Br]Bromobicalutamide and [76Br]bromo-thiobicalutamide were labeled through electrophilic bromination of a tributylstannane precursor. The former could be prepared in high specific activity, and its tissue distribution was tested in vivo. Androgen target tissue uptake was evident in castrated adult male rats; however, in DES-treated, AR-positive, tumor-bearing male mice, tumor uptake was low.
