Carbon Dioxide-Mediated C(sp2)-H Arylation of Primary and Secondary Benzylamines

C-C bond formation by transition metal-catalyzed C-H activation has become an important strategy to fabricate new bonds in a rapid fashion. Despite the pharmacological importance of ortho-arylbenzylamines, however, effective ortho-C-C bond formation of free primary and secondary benzylamines using PdII remains an outstanding challenge. Presented herein is a new strategy for constructing ortho-arylated primary and secondary benzylamines mediated by carbon dioxide (CO2). The use of CO2 with Pd is critical to allowing this transformation to proceed under relatively mild conditions, and mechanistic studies indicate that it (CO2) is directly involved in the rate-determining step. Furthermore, the milder temperatures furnish free amine products that can be directly used or elaborated without the need for deprotection. In cases where diarylation is possible, an interesting chelate effect is shown to facilitate selective monoarylation.

Nucleophilic Substitution of Aliphatic Fluorides via Pseudohalide Intermediates

A method for aliphatic fluoride functionalization with a variety of nucleophiles has been reported. Carbon–fluoride bond cleavage is thermodynamically driven by the use of silylated pseudohalides TMS-OMs or TMS-NTf2, resulting in the formation of TMS-F and a trapped aliphatic pseudohalide intermediate. The rate of fluoride/pseudohalide exchange and the stability of this intermediate are such that little rearrangement is observed for terminal fluoride positions in linear aliphatic fluorides. The ability to convert organofluoride positions into pseudohalide groups allows facile nucleophilic attack by a wide range of nucleophiles. The late introduction of the nucleophiles also allows for a wide range of functional-group tolerance in the coupling partners. Selective alkyl fluoride mesylation is observed in the presence of other alkyl halides, allowing for orthogonal synthetic strategies.

Synthesis and algicidal activity of new dichlorobenzylamine derivatives against harmful red tides

In the present study, we synthesized 65 dichlorobenzylamine derivatives and investigated their algicidal activity against harmful red tides. The 3,4-dichlorobenzylamine derivatives showed relatively high activity against Cochlodinium polykrikoides, Heterosigma akashiwo, Chattonella marina, and Heterocapsa circularisquama, and the synthesized compounds 27, 28, 33, 34, 35, and 36 showed the highest algicidal activity after 24 h at 0.1 ~ 1.0 μM LC50 against the four harmful algae species. To verify the safety of the compounds, acute ecotoxicology tests using the water flea (Daphnia magna) and zebrafish (Danio rerio) were conducted, and the tests confirmed that compounds 33 and 34 were not harmful because the target organisms showed high survival rates at 15 μM. The results indicate that compounds 33 and 34 are suitable substances for use in controlling harmful algae species.
