Nickel(II)-Catalyzed Selective (E)-Olefination of Methyl Heteroarenes Using Benzyl Alcohols via Acceptorless Dehydrogenative Coupling Reaction

An efficient catalytic protocol for the synthesis of selective (E)-olefins by the newly synthesized nickel complexes via greener acceptorless dehydrogenative coupling methodology is presented. Two nickel(II) N, S chelating complexes were structurally characterized with the aid of spectral and single crystal X-ray diffraction methods. Olefination of 2-methylheteroarenes with benzyl alcohols via acceptorless dehydrogenative coupling is achieved by inexpensive nickel(II) catalysts. The present olefination protocol is simple and furnishes the desired 2-alkenylheteroarenes in 35 h and yields in the range of 40–93 %. The dehydrogenative coupling reaction proceeds via the generation of an aldehyde intermediate and produces water and hydrogen as sole by-products. The wide substrate scope of this catalytic reaction covered the synthesis of drug intermediates.

NaCl as Catalyst and Water as Solvent: Highly E-Selective Olefination of Methyl Substituted N-Heteroarenes with Benzyl Amines and Alcohols

Oxidative coupling of benzylamines and alcohols with methyl substituted N-heteroarenes such as quinolines and quinoxalines has been achieved using chloride, a sea abundant anion as the catalyst for practical synthesis of a wide range of E-disubstituted olefins in aqueous medium. Detailed mechanistic studies and control experiments were carried out to deduce the reaction mechanism which indicated that in situ formed ClO2- is the active form of the catalyst. We have successfully carried out a 1 g scale reaction using this methodology, and five pharmaceutically relevant conjugated olefins were also synthesized by this method in moderate to good yields.

Direct Alkenylation of 2-Methylquinolines with Aldehydes through Synergistic Catalysis of 1,3-Dimethylbarbituric Acid and HOAc

An efficient and practical direct alkenylation of 2-methylquinolines with aldehydes has been achieved through a novel synergistic organocatalysis. The HOAc- activated 2-methylquiolines undergo a Michael addition to 1,3-dimethylbarbituric acid-activated aldehydes, followed by a retro-Michael addition to release 1,3-dimethylbarbituric acid and the target products. The transformation produced various 2-alkenylquinolines with good to excellent yields and featured mild reaction conditions, atom- and step-economy, good functional group tolerance, and operational simplicity. (Figure presented.).

Iron-Catalyzed Coupling of Methyl N-Heteroarenes with Primary Alcohols: Direct Access to E-Selective Olefins

An efficient Fe-catalyzed system is reported for direct α-olefination of methyl-substituted N-heteroarenes with primary alcohols. The catalytic dehydrogenative coupling enables a series of functionalized E-olefinated N-heteroaromatics with excellent selectivity (>99%). Initial mechanistic studies including deuterium-labeling experiments provide evidence for the participation of the benzylic C-H/D bond of alcohols.

Synthesis of (E)-2-Alkenylazaarenes via Dehydrogenative Coupling of (Hetero)aryl-fused 2-Alkylcyclic Amines and Aldehydes with a Cobalt Nanocatalyst

To date, the synthesis of (E)-2-alkenylazaarenes via the condensation of 2-methyl N-heteroarenes with aldehydes or their equivalents has been well demonstrated. However, the direct formation of such a class of useful compounds from extensively distributed 2-alkylcyclic amine motifs remains an unresolved goal. Herein, by employing the nitrogen-silica-doped carbon (Vulcan XC-72R) as the support, we have developed a low-loading cobalt nanocatalyst (Co/N-Si-C). The combination of such a catalyst with p-nitrobenzoic acid and molecular O2 exhibits excellent catalytic performance towards the dehydrogenative coupling of (hetero)aryl-fused 2-alkylcyclic amines with aldehydes to afford the (E)-2-alkenylazaarenes. In the reaction, effective capture of the partially dehydrogenated cyclic amine motifs appears to be the key strategy to address the issue of the chemoselectivity. The developed catalytic transformation proceeds with the merits of broad substrate scope, good functional group tolerance, high atom-efficiency, use of an earth-abundant and reusable cobalt catalyst and molecular O2 as a green oxidant, which offers an important basis for the direct conversion of inert cyclic amine units into the functional frameworks.

Direct alkenylation of 2-substituted azaarenes with carbonyls via C-H bond activation using iron-based metal-organic framework Fe3O(BPDC)3 as an efficient heterogeneous catalyst

A porous crystalline metal-organic framework Fe3O(BPDC)3 was synthesized from the reaction of biphenyl-4,4′-dicarboxylic acid and iron(III) chloride hexahydrate by a solvothermal method in the presence of acetic acid, and was characterized by using a variety of different techniques. The Fe3O(BPDC)3 could be used as an efficient heterogeneous catalyst in the synthesis of 2-alkenylazaarenes using the direct alkenylation of 2-substituted azaarenes with carbonyls via C-H bond activation. The presence of acetic acid as a co-catalyst accelerated the transformation significantly. The Fe3O(BPDC)3 exhibited better performance in this transformation then other MOFs such as Fe3O(BDC)3, Cu2(OBA)2(BPY), Cu2(BDC)2(DABCO), Ni2(BDC)2(DABCO), Zn-MOF-74, and Cu2(NDC)2(DABCO). The Fe3O(BPDC)3 also exhibited higher catalytic activity than that of several homogeneous catalysts such as FeCl2, FeCl3, CuCl2, Zn(OAc)2, Zn(NO3)2, and Ni(OAc)2. The Fe3O(BPDC)3 catalyst could be recovered and reused several times in the synthesis of 2-alkenylazaarenes without a significant degradation in catalytic activity. To the best of our knowledge, 2-alkenylazaarenes was not previously synthesized via the direct alkenylation of 2-substituted azaarenes with carbonyls using heterogeneous catalysts.
