Aerobic Copper-Catalyzed Salicylaldehydic Cformyl?H Arylations with Arylboronic Acids

We report a challenging copper-catalyzed Cformyl?H arylation of salicylaldehydes with arylboronic acids that involves unique salicylaldehydic copper species that differ from reported salicylaldehydic rhodacycles and palladacycles. This protocol has high chemoselectivity for the Cformyl?H bond compared to the phenolic O?H bond involving copper catalysis under high reaction temperatures. This approach is compatible with a wide range of salicylaldehyde and arylboronic acid substrates, including estrone and carbazole derivatives, which leads to the corresponding arylation products. Mechanistic studies show that the 2-hydroxy group of the salicylaldehyde substrate triggers the formation of salicylaldehydic copper complexes through a CuI/CuII/CuIII catalytic cycle.

Eco-friendly organocatalyst- And reagent-controlled selective construction of diverse and multifunctionalized 2-hydroxybenzophenone frameworks for potent UV-A/B filters by cascade benzannulation

The organocatalyst- and reagent-controlled highly selective synthesis of diversely functionalized novel 2-hydroxybenzophenone frameworks, such as 2-hydroxy-3′-formylbenzophenones, 7-(2′-hydroxybenzoyl)-2-naphthaldehydes, and 2-hydroxybenzophenones, under green conditions, for the development of potent UV-A/B filters is described. The organocatalyzed benzannulation reactions proceed individually via [3 + 3] cycloaddition for the synthesis of 2-hydroxy-3′-formylbenzophenones and [4 + 2] cycloaddition for 2-hydroxybenzophenones. With this methodology, an unprecedented double benzannulation allows one-pot construction of diverse 7-(2′-hydroxybenzoyl)-2-naphthaldehydes via [3 + 3 + 4] cycloaddition. This protocol features a broad substrate scope, high functional-group tolerance, and operational simplicity in an environmentally benign green solvent. The synthesized compounds are successfully utilized for further transformations and well characterized as potent UV-A/B filters.

Efficient visible-light photocatalytic aerobic oxidation of cyclic sulfamides to imines

A highly efficient photocatalytic aerobic oxidation of cyclic sulfamides to synthesize cyclic N-sulfonyl imines with Ir(ppy)2(dtbpy)PF6 as photocatalyst is reported. These environmentally friendly transformations exihibit good to excellent isolated yields and good generality with respect to both five-membered and six-membered cyclic sulfamides.

Ruthenium-Catalyzed Direct Asymmetric Reductive Amination of Diaryl and Sterically Hindered Ketones with Ammonium Salts and H2

A Ru-catalyzed direct asymmetric reductive amination of ortho-OH-substituted diaryl and sterically hindered ketones with ammonium salts is reported. This method represents a straightforward route toward the synthesis of synthetically useful chiral primary diarylmethylamines and sterically hindered benzylamines (up to 97 % yield, 93–>99 % ee). Elaborations of the chiral amine products into bioactive compounds and a chiral ligand were demonstrated through manipulation of the removable and convertible -OH group.

Integrating Metal-Catalyzed C-H and C-O Functionalization to Achieve Sterically Controlled Regioselectivity in Arene Acylation

One major goal of organometallic chemists is the direct functionalization of the bonds most recurrent in organic molecules: C-H, C-C, C-O, and C-N. An even grander challenge is C-C bond formation when both precursors are of this category. Parallel to this is the synthetic goal of achieving reaction selectivity that contrasts with conventional methods. Electrophilic aromatic substitution (EAS) via Friedel-Crafts acylation is the most renowned method for the synthesis of aryl ketones, a common structural motif of many pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, fragrances, dyes, and other commodity chemicals. However, an EAS synthetic strategy is only effective if the desired site for acylation is in accordance with the electronic-controlled regioselectivity of the reaction. Herein we report steric-controlled regioselective arene acylation with salicylate esters via iridium catalysis to access distinctly substituted benzophenones. Experimental and computational data indicate a unique reaction mechanism that integrates C-O activation and C-H activation with a single iridium catalyst without an exogenous oxidant or base. We disclose an extensive exploration of the synthetic scope of both the arene and the ester components, culminating in the concise synthesis of the potent anticancer agent hydroxyphenstatin.

Copper catalyzed oxidative deamination of Betti bases: An efficient approach for benzoylation/formylation of naphthols and phenols

An efficient route for benzoylation or formylation of naphthols/phenols is developed via oxidative deamination of Betti bases. A copper salt catalyst with TBHP as an oxidant is used. Water is used as a reagent as well as solvent. The reaction proceeds through a regioselective radical pathway. Most importantly, the position of acylation is unambiguous. The method is also applicable to non-hydroxy substrates.

With this new catalytic method, a variety of ortho-acylphenols can be easily accessed from arylketones.

The given reaction provided one of the easiest pathways for accessing 2-hydroxybenzophenones, and a variety of functional groups could be tolerated in this process.
