Aza-heterocycles via copper-catalyzed, remote C–H desaturation of amines

A majority of medicines contain a nitrogen atom within a five- or six-membered ring. To rapidly access both such aza-heterocycles, we sought to develop a remote C–H desaturation of amines. Inspired by the Hofmann-L?ffler-Freytag (HLF) synthesis of five-me

Direct Synthesis of α-Amino Nitriles from Sulfonamides via Base-Mediated C-H Cyanation

Herein, we disclose a transition-metal-free reaction system that enables α-cyanation of sulfonamides through C-H bond cleavage for the preparation of α-amino nitriles, including difficult-to-access all-alkyl α-tertiary scaffolds. More than 50 substrate examples prove a wide functional group tolerance. Additionally, its synthetic practicality is highlighted by gram-scalability and the late-stage modification of natural compounds. Mechanistic experiments suggest that this process involves in situ formation of an imine intermediate via base-promoted elimination of HF.

Iridium-Catalyzed Cycloisomerization of N-Tethered 1,7-Enynes: Construction of an Azabicyclo[5.1.0]octene System

An efficient method for the synthesis of azabicyclo[5.1.0]octenes through cycloisomerization of nitrogen-tethered 1,7-enynes catalyzed by [IrCp*Cl2]2 was developed. With appropriately designed substrates, this method could be easily employed to generate complex fused ring systems such as [6-6-3-7], [5-6-3-7], [7-6-3-7], and [8-6-3-7] ring systems, which enriches the diversity of the cyclopropane-fused polycycle library, and has potential applications in SAR studies of pharmaceutically interesting compounds and total synthesis of natural products.

Copper-Catalyzed and Indium-Mediated Methoxycarbonylation of Unactivated Alkyl Iodides with Balloon CO

This work emphasizes the synthesis of alkyl esters via Cu-catalyzed and In-mediated alkoxycarbonylation of unactivated alkyl iodides in the presence of In or InI. The reactions were suitable for the preparation of primary, secondary, and even tertiary alkyl esters, representing an exceptionally rare example for the creation of quaternary carbon centers upon formation of esters. The preliminary mechanistic studies indicated that alkyl radicals were involved, and Cu/In/CO played a cooperative role in the carbonylation event.

DIRECT ANTI-MARKOVNIKOV ADDITION OF ACIDS TO ALKENES

A method of making an anti-Markovnikov addition product, comprises reacting an acid with an alkene or alkyne in a dual catalyst reaction system to the exclusion of oxygen to produce said anti-Markovnikov addition product; the dual catalyst reaction system comprising a single electron oxidation catalyst in combination with a hydrogen atom donor catalyst. Dual catalyst composition useful for carrying out such methods are also described.

One-Pot Sulfonamide Synthesis Exploiting the Palladium-Catalyzed Sulfination of Aryl Iodides

Aryl ammonium sulfinates, conveniently prepared from aryl iodides and the sulfur dioxide surrogate DABSO, under the action of a palladium(0) catalyst, are transformed in a one-pot process to a variety of functionalized sulfonamides. The sulfinate to sulfonamide transformation is achieved by simple treatment with an aqueous solution of the relevant amine and sodium hypochlorite (bleach). A broad range of amines, including anilines, and amino acid derivatives, are combined efficiently with a variety of aryl iodides, leading to sulfonamides in high yields.

Catalytic Multisite-Selective Acetoxylation Reactions at sp2 vs sp3 C-H Bonds in Cyclic Olefins

The first Pd-catalyzed multisite-selective acetoxylation reactions are disclosed at an unactivated alkene sp2 C-H bond versus secondary allylic sp3 C-H bond in cyclic olefins via the modulation of directing groups. The different directing groups overcome the key challenge in differentiating C-H bonds and provide a new controlling approach for site-specific C-H activation. A wide variety of substrates are readily acetoxylated under operationally simple conditions. Mechanistic studies suggest that different Pd (IV) intermediates were involved in the multisite-selective acetoxylation reactions.

Palladium- and ruthenium-catalyzed cycloisomerization of enynamides and enynhydrazides: A rapid approach to diverse azacyclic frameworks

I want to ride my azacycle: The title reaction of enynamides affords a wide diversity of azacycles. The reactions are high-yielding, highly stereoselective, and proceed rapidly under mild reaction conditions. Equivalent transformations using enynhydrazides offer new routes to pyrazole and indazole scaffolds.
