A short route to access oxaspiro[: N,3,3]propellanes

Novel access to oxaspiro[n,3,3]propellanes has been developed from bicyclic lactones directly prepared by a photochemical hydroxymethylation or alternatively by a three-step sequence. Thanks to the presence of additional hydroxy- and propargylic groups, a second cyclization catalyzed by silver or bismuth salts, led to the propellane structure which was finally transformed into spiranic derivatives by a Simmons-Smith reaction or condensation with α-ketoesters.

Unraveling two pathways for NHPI-mediated electrocatalytic oxidation reaction

Two pathways for N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHPI)-mediated electrocatalytic oxidation using phenylacetate derivatives as template substrates were first reported for benzylic C[sbnd]H oxidation to oxygenated and non-oxygenated products. DFT calculation indicates that the hydrogen-atom transfer (HAT) process between phthalimido-N-oxyl (PINO) and substrate is a rate-determined step. Aromatic α-keto esters and 2-((1,3-dioxoisoindolin-2-yl)oxy)-2-aryl acetate obtained by cross-coupling between benzylic radical and PINO can be selectively synthesized through controlling the concentration of PINO radical. This method provides a deep understanding for selective weak C[sbnd]H oxidation using NHPI as redox mediator.

Electrochemical two-electron oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) induced aerobic oxidation of α-diazoesters

Electrochemical oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is a powerful tool for introducing oxygen functional groups in synthetic chemistry. However, compared with the well-developed one-electron oxygen reduction process, the applications of two-electron oxygen re

Copper on charcoal: Cu0nanoparticle catalysed aerobic oxidation of α-diazo esters

By using a charcoal supported nano Cu0catalyst (Cu/C), a highly efficient oxidation of α-diazo esters to α-ketoesters with molecular oxygen as the sole oxidant has been developed. In the presence of the Cu/C catalyst, 2-aryl-α-diazo esters with both electron-donating and electron-withdrawing groups can be oxidized to the corresponding α-ketoesters efficiently. Furthermore, this Cu/C catalyst can catalyse the reaction of aryl α-diazo ester with water to form aryl ketoester, 2-aryl-2-hydroxyl acetate ester and 2-aryl acetate ester. In this case, water is split by α-diazo ester, and the diazo group is displaced by the oxygen or hydrogen atom in water. Mechanistic investigation showed that the reaction of α-diazo ester with oxygen proceeds through a radical pathway. In the presence of 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl piperidine nitrogen oxide, the reaction of α-diazo ester with oxygen is dramatically inhibited. Furthermore, the reaction of α-diazo ester with water is investigated by an isotopic tracer method, and GCMS detection showed that a disproportionation reaction occurred between α-diazo ester and water.

Stereoselective Synthesis of Dihydrocoumarins via [1,2]-Phospha-Brook Rearrangement in Three-Component Coupling Reaction of α-Ketoesters, o-Quinone Methides, and Dialkyl Phosphites

A highly regio- and diastereoselective approach for the synthesis of phosphate substituted dihydrocoumarins via Br?nsted base catalyzed [1,2]-phospha-Brook rearrangement is reported. The two-step, one-pot Michael addition of α-phosphonyloxy enolates proceeds by coupling of dialkyl phosphite and α-ketoesters to o-quinone methides, followed by an intramolecular cyclization, providing 3,4-dihydrocoumarin frameworks.

Scope and limitations of reductive amination catalyzed by half-sandwich iridium complexes under mild reaction conditions

The conversion of aldehydes and ketones to 1° amines could be promoted by half-sandwich iridium complexes using ammonium formate as both the nitrogen and hydride source. To optimize this method for green chemical synthesis, we tested various carbonyl substrates in common polar solvents at physiological temperature (37 °C) and ambient pressure. We found that in methanol, excellent selectivity for the amine over alcohol/amide products could be achieved for a broad assortment of carbonyl-containing compounds. In aqueous media, selective reduction of carbonyls to 1° amines was achieved in the absence of acids. Unfortunately, at Ir catalyst concentrations of 1 mM in water, reductive amination efficiency dropped significantly, which suggest that this catalytic methodology might be not suitable for aqueous applications where very low catalyst concentration is required (e.g., inside living cells).

Copper(I)-catalyzed aerobic oxidation of α-diazoesters

A practical Cu-catalyzed oxidation of α-diazoesters to α-ketoesters using molecular oxygen as an oxidant has been developed. Both electron-poor and electron-rich aryl α-diazoesters are suitable substrates and provide the α-ketoesters in good yields. In this oxidative system, α-diazo-β-ketoesters are also compatible as substrates but unexpectedly furnish α-ketoesters via C-C bond cleavage, rather than the vicinal tricarbonyl products.

Chemo- And diastereoselective synthesis of pyrrolidines from aroylformates and δ-tosylamino enones via P(NMe2)3-mediated reductive amination/base-catalyzed michael addition cascade

A novel P(NMe2)3-mediated tandem (1 + 4) annulation between aroylformates and δ-tosylamino enones has been developed that affords a facile synthesis of functionalized pyrrolidines in moderate to excellent yields with exclusive chemoselectivity and high diastereoselectivity. Mechanistic investigation reveals that the reaction proceeds through an unprecedented P(NMe2)3-mediated reductive amination/base-catalyzed Michael addition cascade. The reaction herein also represents the first study of the reactivity patterns of the Kukhtin-Ramirez adducts toward ambiphilic nucleophile-electrophiles.

Combined Photoredox/Enzymatic C?H Benzylic Hydroxylations

Chemical transformations that install heteroatoms into C?H bonds are of significant interest because they streamline the construction of value-added small molecules. Direct C?H oxyfunctionalization, or the one step conversion of a C?H bond to a C?O bond, could be a highly enabling transformation due to the prevalence of the resulting enantioenriched alcohols in pharmaceuticals and natural products,. Here we report a single-flask photoredox/enzymatic process for direct C?H hydroxylation that proceeds with broad reactivity, chemoselectivity and enantioselectivity. This unified strategy advances general photoredox and enzymatic catalysis synergy and enables chemoenzymatic processes for powerful and selective oxidative transformations.
