Nickel-Catalyzed Cross-Coupling of Aryl Redoxactive Esters with Aryl Zinc Reagents

, p. 8862 - 8866 (2019/09/30)
A nickel-catalyzed aryl-aroyloxyl C(sp2)-O radical cross-coupling reaction conducted using a redox active ester with aryl zinc reagent was developed. This method demonstrates a new disconnection approach for formation of aryl aryl esters. In the one-pot sequential process, the readily available aryl carboxylic acids can be converted into functionalized aryl aryl esters and heteroaryl esters. This protocol is amenable to the gram-scale synthesis. The present method has a wide substrate scope and high functional group tolerance.

A facile, efficient and environmentally friendly methodology for the preparation of phenolic esters is realized via metal-free coupling of carboxylic acids and arylboronic acids. This sequential one pot reaction, employing methyl propiolate as an activating reagent, proceeds through the formation of enol ester intermediate, followed by a nucleophilic attack on the C-O bond under the oxidation of hydrogen peroxide. These studies display that enol esters, despite previously being overlooked as synthetic intermediates, would be the valuable building blocks for developing carbon–carbon and carbon–heteroatom bond-forming reactions.
Evaluation of the role of isostructurality in fluorinated phenyl benzoates

In this report, the occurrence of three-, two-, and one-dimensional (3D, 2D, and 1D) isostructurality in phenyl benzoate (D00) and their fluorinated analogues was investigated in terms of their molecular assembly in solid state structures. A onedimensional C-H?O=C chain is observed as a robust motif (～ -21 kJ/mol) in the formation of the supramolecular architectures in these isostructural compounds. The isomorphous crystal structures exhibit 3D isostructurality or vice versa. The crystal packing shows that weak intermolecular C-H ? F, C-H ? O, C- H ? π interactions, and π ? π stacking are the main contributors providing stability toward the crystal lattice. The nature and energetics of all the geometrically or energetically equivalent building blocks associated with similar or different intermolecular interactions delineate the role of different molecular pairs in the crystal structures. The fingerprint plots of the isostructural set of crystal structures help to understand the similarities and the differences in the various interatomic contacts. A comparison of these crystal structures with fluorinated N-phenyl benzamides shows the change in supramolecular assembly in terms of intermolecular interactions as well as the lattice energy due to the participation of a strong donor (N-H).

Leukotriene B4 (LTB4) is a pro-inflammatory mediator that has been implicated in the pathogenesis of a number of diseases including inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and psoriasis. Since the action of LTA4 hydrolase is the rate-limiting step for LTB4 production, this enzyme represents an attractive pharmacological target for the suppression of LTB4 production. From an in- house screening program, SC-22716 (1, 1-[2-(4- phenylphenoxy)ethyl]pyrrolidine) was identified as a potent inhibitor of LTA4 hydrolase. Structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies around this structural class resulted in the identification of a number of novel, potent inhibitors of LTA4 hydrolase, several of which demonstrated good oral activity in a mouse ex vivo whole blood assay.
Structure-activity relationships of novel azomethine prodrugs of the histamine H3-receptor agonist (R)-α-methylhistamine: From alkylaryl to substituted diaryl derivatives

This study was performed on the basis of recently developed prodrugs of the histamine H3-receptor agonist (R)-α-methylhistamine (1) to determine structure-activity relationships of azomethine prodrugs of 1, in which the primary amine functionality is bioreversibly linked to aromatic ketones. Therefore, the pro-moiety was systematically altered from alkylaryl over benzylaryl to diaryl substitution. Those compounds that emerged to be stable enough during preparation were tested for their in vitro hydrolysis rates. Apparently, bulky alkyl residues were capable of preventing previously observed intramolecular cyclization, but the obtained azomethines 12 a-c were far too unstable to serve as prodrugs. However, the benzylaryl imines 12d, e were stable compounds, but 12d decomposed too rapidly under in vitro conditions. Distinctly greater stability was provided by diaryl pro-moieties, even if strongly electron-withdrawing functionalities were introduced. Selected compounds were also tested in vivo following p.o. application to mice. Particularly the trifluoromethyl substituted imine 12i proved to be highly effective as stability and rate of conversion were well-balanced, so that brain penetration of 1 was strikingly facilitated. Thus 12i, a highly potent azomethine prodrug, may serve as an important pharmacological tool and, possibly, a therapeutic agent.
Homolytic Reactions of Polyfluoroaromatic Compounds. Part 16. Competitive Phenylation of Polyfluorobenzenes

Pairs of polyfluorobenzenes were allowed to compete for phenyl radicals generated by thermolysis of benzoyl peroxide at 80 deg C.From the relative yields of biaryl, and the yields of each biaryl formed upon arylation of each arene individually, the relative rates of attack of each site in each arene were deduced.Neither iron(III) benzoate nor trichloroacetic acid uniformly improved yields of biaryl, although in some cases the isomer distribution altered, when decomposition of benzoyl peroxide was carried out in the presence of such additives, to favour products of aryldehydrogenation or of aryldefluorination, respectively.Competition did not usually affect the distribution of attack of a particular arene, except when hexafluorobenzene was used, in which case greater selectivity of attack of the second arene occured.This suggested the formation of a 'stabilised' phenyl radical, and supported an earlier suggestion of species such as >; other evidence also supported the postulate.
