Inverting Conventional Chemoselectivity in the Sonogashira Coupling Reaction of Polyhalogenated Aryl Triflates with TMS-Arylalkynes

A newly developed phosphine ligand with a C2-cyclohexyl group on the indole ring was successfully applied in a chemoselective Sonogashira coupling reaction with excellent chemoselectivity, affording an inversion of the conventional chemoselectivity order of C–Br > C–Cl > C–OTf. This study also provided an efficient approach to the synthesis of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and the natural product analogue trimethyl-selaginellin L by merging of chemoselective Sonogashira and Suzuki–Miyaura coupling reactions.

PYRROLOPYRIDINE AND IMIDAZOPYRIDINE ANTIVIRAL COMPOUNDS

The present invention relates to a compound of formula (I) or a stereoisomer, or tautomer, (I) wherein A1, A2, R1 and R2, have the same meaning as that defined in the claims and the description. The present inve

Iodocyclisation of Electronically Resistant Alkynes: Synthesis of 2-Carboxy (and sulfoxy)-3-iodobenzo[ b ]thiophenes

The iodocyclisation of alkynes bearing tethered nucleophiles is a highly effective method for the construction and diversification of heterocycles. A key limitation to this methodology is the 5-endo-dig iodocyclisation of alkynes that have an unfavourable electronic bias for electrophilic cyclisation. These tend to direct electrophilic attack of the iodonium atom to the wrong carbon for cyclisation, thus favouring competing addition reactions. Using our previously determined reaction conditions for the 5-endo-dig iodocyclisations of electronically resistant alkynes, we have achieved efficient synthetic access to 2-carboxy (and sulfoxy)-3-iodobenzo[b]thiophenes. The corresponding benzo[b]furans and indoles were not accessible under these conditions. This difference may arise due to the availability of a radical mechanism in the case of iodobenzo[b]thiophenes. The 2-carboxy functionality of the iodocyclised products can be further employed in iterative alkyne-coupling iodocyclisation reactions, where the carboxy group or an imine (Schiff base) partakes in a second iodocyclisation to generate a lactone or pyridine ring.

Biomimetic carbene cascades enabled imine derivative migration from carbene -bearing thiocarbamates

Inspired by the body circulation of Omeprazole (irreversible proton pump inhibitor), we disclose the carbene-triggered cascades for the synthesis of 2-aminobenzofuran derivatives from N-sulfonyl-1,2,3-triazoles or benzothioazole-bearing thiocarbamates, which represents an unprecedented imine derivative migration process. Furthermore, the desulfurizing reagent-free Barton-Kellogg-type reactions starting from N-sulfonyl-1,2,3-triazoles have also been achieved for the first time, and elemental sulfur is confirmed as a byproduct during this transformation. Both experimental data and DFT calculations further thoroughly explained the unique reactivity.

B(C6F5)3-Catalyzed cyclization of alkynes: direct synthesis of 3-silyl heterocyclic compounds

An efficient one-pot strategy for easy access to 3-silyl heterocyclic compounds was developedviaa B(C6F5)3-catalyzed cycloaddition reaction ofo-(1-alkynyl)(thio)anisoles oro-(1-alkynyl)-N-methylaniline. In this reaction, benzenethiophene, benzofuran or indole skeletons could be constructed by an intermolecular cyclization with diphenylsilane. This protocol elicited moderate-to-good yields with metal-free reaction systems.

γ-Carboline synthesis enabled by Rh(iii)-catalysed regioselective C-H annulation

A redox-neutral Rh(iii)-catalyzed C-H annulation of indolyl oximes was developed. Relying on the use of various alkynyl silanes as the terminal alkyne surrogates, the reaction exhibited a reverse regioselectivity, thus giving an exclusive and easy way for the synthesis of a wide range of substituent free γ-carbolines at C3 position with high efficiency. Deuterium-labelling experiments and kinetic analysis have preliminarily shed light on the working mode of this catalytic system. This journal is

CO-Free Enantioselective Hydroformylation of Functionalised Alkenes: Using a Dual Catalyst System to Give Improved Selectivity and Yield

The scope of carbon monoxide-free Asymmetric Transfer HydroFormylation (ATHF) procedures using a highly active single catalyst system derived from 1,2-bis-((2,5)-diphenylphospholano)ethane as chiral ligand has been studied. This reveals some highly successful reactions, but also significant limitations. The development of a new protocol in which a catalyst for formaldehyde decomposition to CO and H2 is combined with the catalyst of choice for the subsequent asymmetric hydroformylation is described. This enables ATHF reactions that were problematic to be significantly improved. The new method has been used in the synthesis of several key precursors to biologically active molecules. (Figure presented.).

Regioselective Gold-Catalyzed Hydration of CF3- and SF5-alkynes

The regioselective gold-catalyzed hydration of CF3- and SF5-alkynes is described. The corresponding trifluoromethylated and pentasulfanylated ketones are obtained in up to 91% yield as single regioisomers showcasing the use of CF3 and SF5 as highly efficient directing groups in this reaction. Notably, this transformation represents the first use of CF3- and SF5-alkynes in gold catalysis.

Iridium-Catalyzed Asymmetric Transfer Hydrogenation of Alkynyl Ketones Using Sodium Formate and Ethanol as Hydrogen Sources

A green and efficient iridium-catalyzed asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of alkynyl ketones to chiral propargylic alcohols has been developed. By using sodium formate and ethanol as hydrogen sources, a series of alkynyl ketones were hydrogenated by chira

A Traceless Tether Strategy for Achieving Formal Intermolecular Hexadehydro-Diels-Alder Reactions

A synthetic strategy formally equivalent to an intermolecular hexadehydro-Diels-Alder (HDDA) reaction is described. Sulfur-based linkers were designed and constructed by joining terminal alkynes or diynes using alkyne thiolate chemistry. The resulting tetraynes and triynes successfully underwent HDDA cyclization and benzyne trapping. Linker removal by reductive desulfurization was uneventful. The strategy was also found suitable for the tetradehydro-Diels-Alder (TDDA) reaction.
