Copper-catalyzed sp3-sp3 cross-coupling of turbo grignards with benzyl halides

The aromatic ring in benzyl halides and sulfonates imparts unique reactivity at the benzylic carbon atom. Photoredox sp3-sp3 cross-coupling proved ineffective for coupling p-methoxybenzyl chloride (PMBCl), leading to a new strategy for the sp3-sp3 cross-coupling of benzyl halides and sulfonates. This strategy involved LiCl-accelerated synthesis of a Grignard reagent followed by a copper-catalyzed cross-coupling. The conditions worked well for PMBCl due to its exceptional reactivity but other benzyl bromides or sulfonates reacted poorly.

Chromium(II)-Catalyzed Diastereoselective and Chemoselective Csp2-Csp3 Cross-Couplings Using Organomagnesium Reagents

A simple protocol for performing chromium-catalyzed highly diastereoselective alkylations of arylmagnesium halides with cyclohexyl iodides at ambient temperature has been developed. Furthermore, this ligand-free CrCl2 enables efficient electrophilic alkenylations of primary, secondary, and tetiary alkylmagnesium halides with readily available alkenyl acetates. Moreover, this chemoselective C-C coupling reaction with stereodefined alkenyl acetates proceeds in a stereoretentive fashion. A wide range of functional groups on alkyl iodides and alkenyl acetates are well tolerated, thus furnishing functionalized Csp2-Csp3 coupling products in good yields and high diastereoselectivity. Detailed mechanistic studies suggest that the in situ generated low-valent chromium(I) species might be the active catalyst for these Csp2-Csp3 cross-couplings.

Thermal Rearrangement of Sulfamoyl Azides: Reactivity and Mechanistic Study

The rearrangement of sulfamoyl azides under thermal conditions to form a C-C bond while breaking two C-N bonds is reported. Mechanistic study shows that this reaction goes through a Curtius-type rearrangement to form a 1,1-diazene, then which rearranges possibly through both a concerted rearrangement process and a stepwise radical process. This rearrangement could be used in the synthesis of complex biologically active molecules, such as sterols, and piperine derivatives.

Copper-Catalyzed Boron-Selective C(sp2)-C(sp3) Oxidative Cross-Coupling of Arylboronic Acids and Alkyltrifluoroborates Involving a Single-Electron Transmetalation Process

A rapid and highly selective oxidative cross-coupling reaction between readily available and shelf-stable arylboronic acids and primary or secondary potassium alkyltrifluoroborates was devised and developed, which works under mild conditions using copper(II) acetate as the catalyst and silver oxide as the oxidant. Initial experimental results indicate that a single-electron transmetalation process is involved. This approach effectively bypasses the problems associated with the traditional cross-coupling reactions of alkylboronates and thus provides a complementary method in building C(sp2)-C(sp3) bonds.

Cobalt-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions of alkyl halides with aryl Grignard reagents and their application to sequential radical cyclization/cross-coupling reactions

Reactions of alkyl halides with arylmagnesium bromides in the presence of cobalt(II)(diphosphine) complexes are discussed. Treatment of 1-bromooctane with phenylmagnesium bromide with the aid of a catalytic amount of CoCl 2(dppp) [DPPP=1,3-bis(diphenylphosphino)propane] yielded octylbenzene in good yield. The reaction mechanism would include single electron transfer from an electron-rich cobalt complex to alkyl halide to generate the corresponding alkyl radical. The mechanism was justified by CoCl 2(dppe)-catalyzed [DPPE=1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane] sequential radical cyclization/cross-coupling reactions of 6-halo-1-hexene derivatives that yielded benzyl-substituted cyclopentane skeletons.

Tandem intramolecular carbolithiation-transmetallation: From lithium to copper or boron chemistry

Lithium/copper transmetallation from the organolithium intermediate 3 (obtained via intramolecular carbolithiation of the acyclic organolithium 2, generated by a chlorine-lithium exchange) gives the corresponding organocopper intermediate 5. This intermediate reacts with eletrophiles, such as allylic or propargylic halides, acyl chlorides or α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds giving the expected compounds 6-10, which are not possible to be obtained directly from the organolithium 3. On the other hand, lithium/boron transmetallation affords the corresponding alkylboronic acid 11 which, after palladium-catalysed Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction with different aryl bromides gives the expected products 12 with modest yields, the corresponding Ullman biarylic homocoupling products being the major by-products.
