Formation of allylated quaternary carbon centers: Via C-O/C-O bond fragmentation of oxalates and allyl carbonates

Disclosed herein emphasizes Fe-promoted cross-electrophile allylation of tertiary alkyl oxalates with allyl carbonates that generates all C(sp3)-quaternary centers. The reaction involves fragmentation of tertiary alkyl oxalate C-O bonds to give tertiary alkyl radical intermediates, addition of the radicals to less hindered alkene terminals, and subsequent cleavage of the allyl C-O bonds. Allylation with 2-aryl substituted allyl carbonates was mediated by Zn/MgCl2, and Fe is used to promote the radical addition efficiency. By introduction of activated alkenes, a three-component radical cascade reaction took place.

P-Chiral Monophosphorus Ligands for Asymmetric Copper-Catalyzed Allylic Alkylation

Asymmetric copper-catalyzed allylic alkylation between allyl bromides and alkyl Grignard reagents using a P-chiral monophosphorus ligand is described. A range of terminal olefins bearing tertiary or quaternary carbon centers were formed in good branched/linear selectivities and excellent enantioselectivities at copper loadings as low as 0.5 mol %.

Method for synthesizing cis-olefin by catalyzing decarboxylation coupling reaction of NHP ester and aryl-terminated alkyne with iridium

The invention provides a method for synthesizing Z-selective olefin by catalyzing a decarboxylation coupling reaction of an NHP ester and aryl-terminated alkyne with iridium. The aryl-terminated alkyne and its derivative and the NHP ester undergo a one-po

Selective Syntheses of Z-Alkenes via Photocatalyzed Decarboxylative Coupling of N-Hydroxyphthalimide Esters with Terminal Arylalkynes

A novel, efficient Z-alkene synthesis via photocatalyzed decarboxylative couplings between terminal aryl alkynes and alkyl N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHPI) esters, which are derived from aliphatic carboxylic acids, is described. A wide range of primary, secondary, and tertiary carboxylates as well as α-amino acid and α-oxyacid-derived esters were employed as suitable substrates. The mild reaction conditions, broad substrate scope, functional group tolerance, and operational simplicity make this decarboxylative coupling reaction a valuable method in organic syntheses.

Photo-induced Decarboxylative Heck-Type Coupling of Unactivated Aliphatic Acids and Terminal Alkenes in the Absence of Sacrificial Hydrogen Acceptors

1,2-Disubstituted alkenes such as vinyl arenes, vinyl silanes, and vinyl boronates are among the most versatile building blocks that can be found in every sector of chemical science. We herein report a noble-metal-free method of accessing such olefins through a photo-induced decarboxylative Heck-type coupling using alkyl carboxylic acids, one of the most ubiquitous building blocks, as the feedstocks. This transformation was achieved in the absence of external oxidants through the synergistic combination of an organo photo-redox catalyst and a cobaloxime catalyst, with H2 and CO2 as the only byproducts. Both control experiments and DFT calculations supported a radical-based mechanism, which eventually led to the development of a selective three-component coupling of aliphatic carboxylic acids, acrylates, and vinyl arenes. More than 90 olefins across a wide range of functionalities were effectively synthesized with this simple protocol.

Iron-Catalyzed Vinylic C?H Alkylation with Alkyl Peroxides

A variety of alkyl peresters and alkyl diacyl peroxides, which are readily accessible from carboxylic acids, are utilized as general primary, secondary, and tertiary alkylating reagents for iron-catalyzed vinylic C?H alkylation of vinyl arenes, dienes, and 1,3-enynes. This transformation affords olefinic products in up to 98 % yield with high E/Z values. A broad range of functionalities, including carboxyl, boronic acid, methoxy, ester, amino, and halides, are tolerated. This protocol provides a facile approach to some olefins that are difficult to access, and hence, offers an alternative to existing systems. The synthetic utility of this method is demonstrated by late-stage functionalization of selected natural-product derivatives.

Nickel-Catalyzed Reductive Allylation of Tertiary Alkyl Halides with Allylic Carbonates

The construction of all C(sp3) quaternary centers has been successfully achieved under Ni-catalyzed cross-electrophile coupling of allylic carbonates with unactivated tertiary alkyl halides. For allylic carbonates bearing C1 or C3 substituents, the reaction affords excellent regioselectivity through the addition of alkyl groups to the unsubstituted allylic carbon terminus. The allylic alkylation method also exhibits excellent functional-group compatibility, and delivers the products with high E selectivity.

Visible Light-Induced Room-Temperature Heck Reaction of Functionalized Alkyl Halides with Vinyl Arenes/Heteroarenes

The first visible light-induced Pd-catalyzed Heck reaction of α-heteroatom substituted alkyl iodides and -bromides with vinyl arenes/heteroarenes has been developed. This transformation efficiently proceeds at room temperature and enables synthesis of valuable functionalized allylic systems, such as allylic silanes, boronates, germanes, stannanes, pivalates, phosphonates, phthalimides, and tosylates from the corresponding α-substituted methyl iodides. Notably, synthesis of the latter substrates failed under existing thermally induced Pd-catalyzed conditions, which highlights the importance of visible light for this transformation.

Hydroalkylation of terminal aryl alkynes with alkyl diacyl peroxides

A photo and nickel co-catalyzed hydroalkylation of terminal aryl alkynes enabled Z-preferred olefin synthesis has been developed under mild conditions. Alkyl diacyl peroxides were utilized as a new type of alkylation reagents and afforded Z-olefins as the major products in moderate to good yields.

Palladium-catalyzed intermolecular Heck reaction of alkyl halides

Intermolecular Heck reaction of common alkyl halides, a longstanding problem in palladium catalysis, is realized with a simple Pd/dppf catalyst. Both primary and secondary alkyl halides are suitable for coupling with aromatic olefins. Single electron transfer from (dppf)Pd0 to alkyl halide initiated the catalytic cycle and gave alkyl radicals. This journal is the Partner Organisations 2014.
