Electro-alkynylation: Intramolecular Rearrangement of Trialkynylorganoborates for Chemoselective C(sp2)-C(sp) Bond Formation

An alternative and complementary transformation for the synthesis of aryl- and heteroaryl-substituted alkynes is presented that relies on a chemoselective electrocoupling process. Tetraorganoborate substrates were logically designed and simply accessed by transmetalations using readily or commercially available organotrifluoroborate salts.

A carrier-free and recyclable protocol for the cross-coupling of terminal alkynes with arylboronic acids in H2O/TBAB

A new and recyclable protocol was developed for Pd(OAc)2-catalyzed the cross-coupling reaction of terminal alkynes with arylboronic acids using environmentally friendly H2O/TBAB as reaction medium. A series of cross-coupling products containing internal acetylenic bond can be obtained with good selectivity and yield. The Pd(OAc)2/H2O/TBAB system was stable in the Sonogashira-type cross-coupling reaction and could be used at least three cycles without considerable decrease in catalytic performance. The results suggest that the unsupported and recyclable systems can be extended to the other realm of C&C bond formation in synthetic organic chemistry.

Sonogashira Cross-Coupling of Aryltrimethylammonium Salts

A protocol for C(sp)-C(sp2) bond formation via the Sonogashira coupling reaction involving C-N bond cleavage with aryltrimethylammonium triflate as an electrophilic coupling partner is described in this work. The reactions proceeded well under mild conditions with a stoichiometric ratio of alkyl, aryl, or heteroaryl acetylenes and provided yields of up to 93%. Numerous useful functional groups were tolerated under the reaction conditions. Direct amine alkynylation can be achieved through a one-pot process without the isolation of ammonium salt. The protocol can be performed on a gram scale. Density functional theory calculations were performed to investigate the reaction mechanism that involved oxidative addition, alkyne coordination, deprotonation, and reductive elimination, which yielded the cross-coupling product.

2,2-Diazido-1,2-diarylethanones: Synthesis and Reactivity with Primary Amines

We describe the synthesis and reactivity of a new class of diazidated compounds: the 2,2-diazido-1,2-diarylethanones. The diazides are easily accessible from 1,2-diarylethanones through a mild and simple protocol for the direct oxidative diazidation, using iodine and sodium azide in DMSO at room temperature. In studies towards their reactivity with amine nucleophiles under basic conditions, the diazides are shown to undergo a controlled fragmentation reaction that provides a straightforward access to the corresponding amides. In stark contrast to our previous results on the amine-triggered fragmentation of diazidated compounds, aromatic nitriles are found to be by-products of synthetic value. The net reaction consisting of diazidation and subsequent fragmentation, thus, provides a simple way to convert 1,2-diarylethanones into both aromatic amides and nitriles.

Ligand-free copper oxide nanoparticle-catalyzed sonogashira coupling reaction

The catalytic Sonogashira coupling reaction of terminal alkynes and aryl halides is developed using copper(II) oxide nanoparticles as catalyst in dimethyl sulfoxide. The procedure is experimentally simple, general, efficient, and free from addition of ext
