The photorelease of bioactive molecules has emerged as a valuable tool in biochemistry. Nevertheless, many important bioactive molecules, such as pyridine derivatives, cannot benefit from currently available organic photoremovable protecting groups (PPGs). We found that the inefficient photorelease of pyridines is attributed to intramolecular photoinduced electron transfer (PET) from PPGs to pyridinium ions. To alleviate PET, we rationally designed a strategy to drive the excited state of PPG from S1 to T1 with a heavy atom, and synthesized a new PPG by substitution of the H atom at the 3-position of 7-dietheylamino-coumarin-4-methyl (DEACM) with Br or I. This resulted in an improved photolytic efficiency of the pyridinium ion by hundreds-fold in aqueous solution. The PPG can be applied to various pyridine derivatives. The successful photorelease of a microtubule inhibitor, indibulin, in living cells was demonstrated for the potential application of this strategy in biochemical research.

This paper describes the fluorination of nitrogen heterocycles using anhydrous NBu4F. Quinoline derivatives as well as a number of 3- and 5-substituted pyridines undergo high-yielding fluorination at room temperature using this reagent. These results with anhydrous NBu4F compare favorably to traditional halex fluorinations using alkali metal fluorides, which generally require temperatures of ≥100 °C.

Stoichiometric and catalytic hydrodefluorination reactions of fluorinated aromatic substrates on using [Rh(μ-H)(dippp)]2 (1) (dippp = 1,3-bis(diisopropylphosphino)propane) as catalyst and HSiEt3 as a hydrogen source are reported. Treatment of the hydrido complex 1 with the fluoroarenes gave the fluorido complex [Rh(μ-F)(dippp)]2 (2) and organic hydrodefluorination products. An unusual ortho-selectivity was observed in the reaction of 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoropyridine and pentafluorobenzene giving the 1,2-hydrodefluorinated products. The binuclear structure of complex 2 in the solid state was confirmed by X-ray diffraction. The fluorido complex 2 reacted with HSiEt3 and HSiiPr3 by elimination of the corresponding fluorosilanes to afford the η2-silane hydrido complexes [Rh(H)(η2-HSiEt3)(dippp)] (3) and [Rh(H)(η2-HSiiPr3)(dippp)] (4), respectively. The structures of the complexes 3 and 4 were derived from NMR data and DFT calculations. Catalytic reactions of pentafluoropyridine, 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro- pyridine or 2,3,5,6-tetra-fluoropyridine, hexa- and pentafluorobenzene with HSiEt3 in the presence of 5 mol% of 1 afforded hydrodefluorination products with up to 19 turnovers after 48 h at 50 C. In contrast to the stoichiometric reactions, the catalytic transformations resulted predominantly in hydrodefluorinations at the para-position of the nitrogen atom in the heterocycles giving evidence for two different C-F activation pathways. Compound 3 can be considered to be an intermediate in the catalytic hydrodefluorinations of the fluoroarenes.
