Synthesis of functionalized thietanes via electrophilic carbenoid-induced ring expansion of thiiranes with sulfonium acylmethylides as carbene precursors

Various functionalized thietanes were prepared from thiiranes via an electrophilic ring expansion with rhodium carbenoids as electrophiles generated from safe and readily accessible dimethylsulfonium acylmethylides. The reaction appears to proceed through electrophilic metallocarbenoid-induced activation of thiiranes, nucleophilic ring-opening of the activated thiiranes with dimethyl sulfide as a transient nucleophile, and nucleophilically intramolecular cyclization. The Umpolung from the nucleophilic ylides to the electrophilic carbenoids plays an important role in both the activation and ring opening of thiiranes and subsequent cyclization. The current method provides a new strategy for the efficient preparation of functionalized thietanes from readily available thiiranes.

Photo/N-Heterocyclic Carbene Co-catalyzed Ring Opening and γ-Alkylation of Cyclopropane Enal

An unprecedented photo/NHC-co-catalyzed ring-opening C-C bond cleavage of cyclopropane enal and the following γ-alkylation with a halogenated compound via radicals were established, affording the corresponding γ-alkylated α,β-unsaturated esters in moderate to good yields.

Functionalized α-keto stabilized sulfonium ylides as highly active ligand precursors for palladium catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura cross-couplings

Five α-keto stabilized sulfonium ylides as type (Me) 2SCHC(O)C6H4-p-X (X = H, Br, NO2, CH3 and OCH3) {L1-L5} were used as ligand precursors in the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction. The best catalytic performance was obtained by using a sulfonium ylide/Pd ratio of 2:1. The catalytic systems displayed high activities, which increased in the order R = NO2 (L3) 2) 1) 3 (L4) 3 (L5). The coupling reactions proceeded smoothly with 0.05 mol% PdCl2 and 0.1 mol% L5 in DMF at 130 °C between varieties of electronically activated, deactivated and neutral aryl halides and aryl boronic acids within short reaction times and without the need for exclusion of air which gave good to high yields of the corresponding products. All the studied ligands demonstrated very high activity in the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling, which yielded turnover numbers up to 1940. Comparative studies showed that the performance of sulfonium ylide L5 is significantly superior to that of related phosphine-free ligands.

Synthesis and characterization of novel simultaneous C and O-coordinated and nitrate-bridged complexes of silver(i) with carbonyl-stabilized sulfonium ylides and their antibacterial activities

Reaction of sulfonium ylides (Me)2SCHC(O)C6H 4R (R = H; m-NO2; p-NO2; p-OMe; p-Me and p-Br) with AgNO3 in dichloromethane leads to various compounds. Single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that the adducts take 3 forms: (i) two-dimensional polymer, [AgNO3(Me2SCHC(O)C 6H5)]n (1), with nitrate bridges in which each nitrate coordinates to three silver atoms through two oxygen atoms and two Me2SCHC(O)C6H5 ligands coordinate to silver centers through carbon atoms; (ii) cationic binuclear, [Ag(Me 2SCHC(O)C6H4-m-NO2) 2]2(NO3)2·2H2O (2), in which Me2SCHC(O)C6H4-m-NO2 ligands simultaneously coordinate through both carbon and oxygen atoms with nitrate as a counter ion, and (iii) cationic mononuclear and anionic binuclear, [Ag(Me2SCHC(O)C6H4-p-NO2) 2]2[{AgNO3(μ-NO3) (Me 2SCHC(O)C6H4-p-NO2)} 2]·2CH3OH (3), in which nitrate groups act as bridging as well as terminal ligands, and Me2SCHC(O)C 6H4-p-NO2 ligands display C-coordination. Characterization of the obtained compounds was also performed by infrared, 1H- and 13C-NMR spectroscopy and analytical data indicated a 1:2 stoichiometry between the silver(i) nitrate and ylide p-OMe (4) and 1:1 for ylides p-Me (5) and p-Br (6). In addition, the antibacterial effects of DMSO-solutions of complexes 1-6 were evaluated by the agar disc diffusion method against three Gram positive and three Gram negative bacteria. All complexes displayed antibacterial activity against these bacteria, with high levels of inhibitory potency exhibited against the Gram negative species.
