Thermal decay of TEMPO in acidic media via an N-oxoammonium salt intermediate
Ma, Yun,Loyns, Colin,Price, Peter,Chechik, Victor
, p. 5573 - 5578 (2011)
Disproportionation of TEMPO in acids leads to the formation of an N-oxoammonium salt, which can further decompose under thermal conditions, yielding the corresponding hydroxylamine, N2O, CO2 and a series of dimerisation products. Overall, acid-catalysed thermal decay of TEMPO leads to ca. 80% yield of hydroxylamine.

A new structurally characterized ferrous corrole [FeII(ttppc)]? (1) binds one equivalent of dioxygen to form [FeIII(O2?.)(ttppc)]? (2). This complex exhibits a 16/18O2-isotope sensitive ν(O-O) stretch at 1128 cm?1 concomitantly with a single ν(Fe-O2) at 555 cm?1, indicating it is an η1-superoxo (“end-on”) iron(III) complex. Complex 2 is the first well characterized Fe-O2 corrole, and mediates the following biologically relevant oxidation reactions: dioxygenation of an indole derivative, and H-atom abstraction from an activated O?H bond.

Herein, we report an efficient method for the chemical generation of 1O2 by treatment of H2O2 with AIBX, a highly water-soluble, bench-stable, recyclable hypervalent iodine(V) reagent developed by our group. The generation of 1O2 was confirmed by the following results: (1) capture of 1O2 with the sodium salt of anthracene-9,10-bis(ethanesulfonate) produced the corresponding endoperoxide and (2) TEMPO (2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-piperidinyloxy) produced by the oxidation of 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine with 1O2 generated using the AIBX/H2O2 system was detected by electron spin resonance spectroscopy. To illustrate the potential utility of this method for organic synthesis, we used the AIBX/H2O2 system to perform typical reactions of 1O2: [2 + 2]/[4 + 2] cycloadditions, Schenck ene reactions, and heteroatom oxidation reactions, which afforded the corresponding products in high yields. Moreover, we used the method to synthesize the antimalarial drug artemisinin. Finally, we demonstrated that AIBX could be regenerated after the reaction by means of a workup involving extraction and removal of water to obtain a precursor of AIBX, which could then be re-oxidized.

The regioselectivity of hydroxyl radical reactions with alkylarenes was investigated using a nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)-based methodology capable of trapping and quantifying addition and hydrogen abstraction products of the initial elementary step of the oxidation process. Abstraction products are relatively minor components of the product mixtures (15–30 mol%), depending on the magnitude of the overall rate coefficient and the number of available hydrogens. The relative reactivity of addition at a given position on the ring depends on its relation to the methyl substituents on the hydrocarbons under study. The reactivity enhancements for disubstituted and trisubstituted rings are approximately additive under the conditions of this study.

The effect of viscosity on the radical termination reaction between a transient radical and a persistent radical undergoing a coupling reaction (Coup) or hydrogen abstraction (Abst) was examined. In a non-viscous solvent, such as benzene (bulk viscosity bulk 99% Coup/Abst selectivity, but Coup/Abst decreased as the viscosity increased (89/11 in PEG400 at 25 °C [bulk = 84 mPa s]). While bulk viscosity is a good parameter to predict the Coup/Abst selectivity in each solvent, microviscosity is the more general parameter. Poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)-end radicals had a more significant viscosity effect than polystyrene (PSt)-end radicals, and the Coup/Abst ratio of the former dropped to 50/50 in highly viscous media (bulk = 3980 mPa s), while the latter maintained high Coup/ Abst selectivity (84/16). These results, together with the low thermal stability of dormant PMMA-TEMPO species compared with that of PSt-TEMPO species, are attributed to the limitation of the nitroxide-mediated radical polymerization of MMA. While both organotellurium and bromine compounds were used as precursors of radicals, the former was superior to the latter for the clean generation of radical species.

The heteroleptic (formazanato)nickel bromide complex LNi(μ-Br)2NiL [LH = Mes-NH-N═C(p-tol)-N═N-Mes] has been prepared by deprotonation of LH with NaH followed by reaction with NiBr2(dme). Treatment of this complex with KC8led to transformation of the formazanate into azoiminate ligands via N-N bond cleavage and the simultaneous release of aniline. At the same time, the potentially resulting intermediate complex L′2Ni [L′ = HN═C(p-tol)-N═N-Mes] was reduced by one additional electron, which is delocalized across the π system and the metal center. The resulting reduced complex [L′2Ni]K(18-c-6) has aS=1/2ground state and a square-planar structure. It reacts with dioxygen via one-electron oxidation to give the complex L′2Ni, and the formation of superoxide was detected spectroscopically. If oxidizable substrates are present during this process, these are oxygenated/oxidized. Triphenylphosphine is converted to phosphine oxide, and hydrogen atoms are abstracted from TEMPO-H and phenols. In the case of cyclohexene, autoxidations are triggered, leading to the typical radical-chain-derived products of cyclohexene.

The enzymes manganese lipoxygenase (MnLOX) and manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) utilize mononuclear Mn centers to effect their catalytic reactions. In the oxidized MnIIIstate, the active site of each enzyme contains a hydroxo ligand, and X-ray crystal structures imply a hydrogen bond between this hydroxo ligand and aciscarboxylate ligand. While hydrogen bonding is a common feature of enzyme active sites, the importance of this particular hydroxo-carboxylate interaction is relatively unexplored. In this present study, we examined a pair of MnIII-hydroxo complexes that differ by a single functional group. One of these complexes, [MnIII(OH)(PaPy2N)]+, contains a naphthyridinyl moiety capable of forming an intramolecular hydrogen bond with the hydroxo ligand. The second complex, [MnIII(OH)(PaPy2Q)]+, contains a quinolinyl moiety that does not permit any intramolecular hydrogen bonding. Spectroscopic characterization of these complexes supports a common structure, but with perturbations to [MnIII(OH)(PaPy2N)]+, consistent with a hydrogen bond. Kinetic studies using a variety of substrates with activated O-H bonds, revealed that [MnIII(OH)(PaPy2N)]+is far more reactive than [MnIII(OH)(PaPy2Q)]+, with rate enhancements of 15-100-fold. A detailed analysis of the thermodynamic contributions to these reactions using DFT computations reveals that the former complex is significantly more basic. This increased basicity counteracts the more negative reduction potential of this complex, leading to a stronger O-H BDFE in the [MnII(OH2)(PaPy2N)]+product. Thus, the differences in reactivity between [MnIII(OH)(PaPy2Q)]+and [MnIII(OH)(PaPy2N)]+can be understood on the basis of thermodynamic considerations, which are strongly influenced by the ability of the latter complex to form an intramolecular hydrogen bond.

The nature of plasmon interaction with organic molecules is a subject of fierce discussion about thermal and non-thermal effects. Despite the abundance of physical methods for evaluating the plasmonic effects, chemical insight has not been reported yet. In this contribution, we propose a chemical insight into the plasmon effect on reaction kinetics using alkoxyamines as an organic probe through their homolysis, leading to the generation of nitroxide radicals. Alkoxyamines (TEMPO- and SG1-substituted) with well-studied homolysis behavior are covalently attached to spherical Au nanoparticles. We evaluate the kinetic parameters of homolysis of alkoxyamines attached on a plasmon-active surface under heating and irradiation at a wavelength of plasmon resonance. The estimation of kinetic parameters from experiments with different probes (Au-TEMPO,Au-SG1,Au-SG1-TEMPO) allows revealing the apparent differences associated with the non-thermal contribution of plasmon activation. Moreover, our findings underline the dependency of kinetic parameters on the structure of organic molecules, which highlights the necessity to consider the nature of organic transformations and molecular structure in plasmon catalysis.

The oxidative cleavage reaction of the C-S bond using singlet oxygen is challenging because of its uncontrollable nature. We have developed a novel method for the singlet-oxygen-mediated selective C-S bond cleavage reaction using silver(II)-ligand complexes. Visible-light-induced silver catalysis enables the controlled oxidative cleavage of benzyl thiols to afford carbonyl compounds, such as aldehydes or ketones, which are important synthetic components.
