CONJUGATE ADDITION OF ORGANOLITHIUM REAGENTS TO ACRYLANILIDE ANIONS

Phenyllithium, n-butyllithium, and t-butyllithium were found to add to substituted acrylanilide anions to give the 1,4-addition products in fair to good yields.

Bromo Radical-Mediated Photoredox Aldehyde Decarbonylation towards Transition-Metal-Free Hydroalkylation of Acrylamides at Room Temperature

Herein, we report a visible-light-mediated hydroalkylation reaction of alkenes using easily available aldehydes as alkyl sources via bromo radical-promoted photoredox decarbonylation. This protocol provides an alternative entry to C(sp3)?C(sp3) bond formation and features considerable advantages including mild and clean reaction conditions, obviation for transition-metal catalyst, and good functional group compatibility.

Nickel-catalyzed: C-alkylation of thioamide, amides and esters by primary alcohols through a hydrogen autotransfer strategy

A simple catalyst of Ni(OAc)2 and P(t-Bu)3 enables selective C-alkylation of thioacetamides and primary acetamides with alcohols for the first time. Monoalkylation of thioamides, amides and t-butyl esters occurs in excellent yields (>95%). Mechanistic studies reveal that the reaction proceeds via a hydrogen autotransfer pathway. This journal is

Thiophenol-Catalyzed Visible-Light Photoredox Decarboxylative Couplings of N-(Acetoxy)phthalimides

We have developed visible-light photoredox decarboxylative couplings of N-(acetoxy)phthalimides without an added photocatalyst in which simple and commercially available thiophenols are used as the effective organocatalysts, and 4-(trifluoromethyl)thiophenol shows optimal catalytic activity. Three representative decarboxylative examples were chosen including one amination and two C-C bond couplings to confirm efficacy of the visible-light photoredox reactions, and the results exhibited that they performed very well at room temperature. The interesting discovery should provide a novel and environmentally friendly strategy for visible-light photoredox transformation of organic molecules.

Hydromethylation of Unactivated Olefins

A solution to the classic unsolved problem of olefin hydromethylation is presented. This highly chemoselective method can tolerate labile and reactive chemical functionalities and uses a simple set of reagents. An array of olefins, including mono-, di-, and trisubstituted olefins, are all smoothly hydromethylated. This mild protocol can be used to simplify the synthesis of a specific target or to directly "edit" complex natural products and other advanced materials. The method is also amenable to the simple installation of radioactive and stable labeled methyl groups.

Reductive alkylation of electronegatively-substituted alkenes by alkylmercury halides

Photolysis of alkylmercury halides in the presence of electronegatively-substituted 1-alkenes yields adduct radicals [RCH2CH(EWG).] that in some cases react with RHgX to form RCH2CH(HgX)(EWG), e.g., EWG = (EtO)2PO or PhSO2. When the EWG is carbonyl or cyano, the resonance stabilized adduct radicals fail to react with the alkyl mercury halide. In these cases photolysis with RHgCl/KI in Me2SO leads to the adduct mercurial via reaction of the adduct radicals with RHgI2-. The reactions of tertiary-enolyl adduct radicals are inefficient with RHgX/KI, and disproportionation of the adduct radicals is the major reaction pathway. For secondary- or tertiary-adduct radicals the reductive alkylation products are formed in excellent yield by reaction with RHgCl and silyl hydrides in Me2SO solution in a process postulated to involve RHgH as an intermediate. The relative reactivities of a number of α,β-unsaturated systems toward t-Bu. have been measured by competitive techniques. The results demonstrate a high reactivity of s-cis enones relative to the s-trans conformers.

Charge-directed conjugate addition reactions of silylated α-β- unsaturated amidate anions

A variety of N-substituted α-silylated-α,β-unsaturated amidate anions (2) have been found to be excellent Michael acceptors in charge-directed conjugate addition reactions with Grignard and organolithium reagents. The effects of olefin substitution, Si-substitution, N-substitution, and amidate counterion have been studied. Anionic acceptors may be prepared in situ by the addition of silylated vinyllithium reagents to isocyanates and then allowed to undergo conjugate addition reactions with subsequently added nucleophiles, but it was found to be more efficient to isolate neutral acceptors and regenerate the acceptor anion through the use of excess nucleophile. β-Substituted acceptors were found to react only with reactive organolithium reagents while a β,β-disubstituted acceptor failed to undergo conjugate addition reactions. A primary amide acceptor (14d) also undergoes addition reactions with larger quantitites of nucleophiles suggesting that dianionic amidate acceptors (31) are involved. Diene acceptor 24 was found to undergo a 1,6-addition reaction with n-BuLi. Sodium and potassium amidate salts were found to be inferior to lithium and magnesium salts in addition reactions in keeping with the expectation that an increase in carbonyl-group charge burden retards conjugate reactions. Triphenylsilyl-containing acceptor 16 was found to be more reactive in reactions with n-BuMgCl but less reactive with bulkier tert-BuMgCl. Adduct dianions can be monoalkylated with alkyl iodides and used in Peterson olefination reactions.
