Cross-coupling reactions mediated by dual nickel/photocatalysis are synthetically attractive but rely mainly on expensive, non-recyclable noble-metal complexes as photocatalysts. Heterogeneous semiconductors, which are commonly used for artificial photosynthesis and wastewater treatment, are a sustainable alternative. Graphitic carbon nitrides, a class of metal-free polymers that can be easily prepared from bulk chemicals, are heterogeneous semiconductors with high potential for photocatalytic organic transformations. Here, we demonstrate that graphitic carbon nitrides in combination with nickel catalysis can induce selective C?O cross-couplings of carboxylic acids with aryl halides, yielding the respective aryl esters in excellent yield and selectivity. The heterogeneous organic photocatalyst exhibits a broad substrate scope, is able to harvest green light, and can be recycled multiple times. In situ FTIR was used to track the reaction progress to study this transformation at different irradiation wavelengths and reaction scales.

Low cost, high performance hydrolysable polymers are of great importance in biomedical applications and materials industries. While many applications require materials to have a degradation profile insensitive to external pH to achieve consistent release profiles under varying conditions, hydrolysable chemistry techniques developed so far have pH-dependent hydrolytic kinetics. This work reports the design and synthesis of a new type of hydrolysable polymer that has identical hydrolysis kinetics from pH 3 to 11. The unprecedented pH independent hydrolytic kinetics of the aryl ureas were shown to be related to the dynamic bond dissociation controlled hydrolysis mechanism; the resulting hindered poly(aryl urea) can be degraded with a hydrolysis half-life of 10 min in solution. More importantly, these fast degradable hindered aromatic polyureas can be easily prepared by addition polymerization from commercially available monomers and are resistant to hydrolysis in solid form for months under ambient storage conditions. The combined features of good stability in solid state and fast hydrolysis at various pH values is unprecedented in polyurea material, and will have implications for materials design and applications, such as sacrificial coatings and biomaterials.
Steric Hindrance Underestimated: It is a Long, Long Way to Tri- tert-alkylamines

Ten different processes (Methods A-J) were tested to prepare tertiary amines bearing bulky alkyl groups. In particular, SN1 alkylation of secondary amines with the help of 1-adamantyl triflate (Method D) and reaction of N-chlorodialkylamines with organometallic reagents (Method H), but also attack of the latter reagents at iminium salts, which were generated in situ by N-alkylation of imines (Method J), led to trialkylamines with unprecedented steric congestion. These products showed a restriction of the rotation about the C-N bond. Consequently, equilibration of rotamers was slow on the NMR time scale resulting in distinguishable sets of NMR data at room temperature. Furthermore, tertiary amines with bulky alkyl substituents underwent Hofmann-like elimination when heating in toluene to form an olefin and a secondary amine. Since the tendency to take part in this decay reaction correlated with the degree of steric hindrance around the nitrogen atom, Hofmann elimination at ambient temperature, which made the isolation of the tertiary amine difficult, was observed in special cases.

Mild methods for the deprotection of organic substrates are of fundamental importance in synthetic chemistry. A new room temperature method using a catalytic amount of Cu(OTf)2is reported. This allows use of the tert-butyl group as an amide protecting group. The methodology is also extended to Boc-deprotection.
New mixed Li/Mg and Li/Mg/Zn amides for the chemoselectlve metallation of arenes and heteroarenes

experimental part, p. 1781 - 1795 (2009/09/05)
New mixed Li/Mg and Li/Mg/Zn amides have been synthesized starting from readily prepared secondary amines. They allow a highly chemoselective directed magnesiation or zincation of various polyfunctional aromatics and heteroaromatics. The kinetic basicity, solubility and stability of these new bases have been compared with those of the corresponding 2,2,6,6- tetramethylpiperamide-derived bases. Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA.

Bigger is better: Sterically hindered dialkyl ureas undergo nucleophilic substitution at dramatically faster rates than their less hindered counterparts (see scheme). Steric decompression upon the formation of an intermediate isocyanate can explain this c

Two series of tert-butyldialkylamines have been prepared and examined for borane complexation. The complexing ability of each amine in the two series examined decreases in the order shown. First series: t- BuN(CH2CH2)2O 1a > t-BuNEt2 1b > t-BuNPr(n)21c > t-BuN(CH2CH2OMe)2 1d >> t-BuNBu(i)2 1e. Second series: t-BuNBu(i)Me 2a > t-BuNPr(i)Me 2b > t- BuNBu(i)Et 2c > t-BuNBu(i)Pr(n) 2d >>t-BuNPr(i)Et 2e. The reactivity of the corresponding borane adducts toward 1-octene increases in the reverse order. The following amines form highly reactive liquid borane adducts hydroborating 1-octene in tetrahydrofuran at room temperature in less than 1 h: t- BuN(CH2CH2OMe)2, t-BuNBu(i)Et, and t-BuNPr(i)Me. The limit of borane complexation among the amines examined is reached for t-BuNBu(i)2 exchanging borane neither with BMS nor with BH3-THF. Among the various borane adducts prepared, the more promising borane adducts, t-Bu(CH3OCH2CH2)2N-BH3 (7), t-BuMePr(i)N-BH3 (8), and t-BuEtBu(i)N-BH3 (9), were selected for complete hydroboration and reduction studies. Hydroboration studies with the new, highly reactive trialkylamine-borane adducts 7-9 and representative olefins, such as 1-hexene, styrene, β-pinene, cyclopentene, norbornene, cyclohexene, 2-methyl-2-butene, α-pinene, and 2,3-dimethyl-2-butene, in tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, tert-butyl methyl ether, n-pentane, and dichloromethane, at room temperature (22 ± 3°C) were carried out. The reactions are faster in dioxane, requiring 1-2 h for the hydroboration of simple, unhindered olefins to the trialkylborane stage. Moderately hindered olefins, such as cyclohexene and 2-methyl-2-butene, give the corresponding dialkylboranes rapidly, with further slow hydroboration. However, the more hindered olefins, α-pinene and 2,3-dimethyl-2-butene, give stable monoalkylboranes very rapidly, with further hydroboration proceeding relatively slowly. The hydroborations can also be carried out conveniently in other solvents, such as THF, tert-butyl methyl ether, and n-pentane. A significant rate retardation is observed in dichloromethane. Regioselectivity studies of 1-hexene and styrene using these amine-borane adducts show selectivities similar to that of BH3-THF. The rates and stoichiometry of the reaction of t-BuMePr(i)N-BH3 in tetrahydrofuran with selected organic compounds containing representative functional groups were also examined at room temperature. The reductions of esters, amides, and nitriles, which exhibit a sluggish reaction at room temperature, proceed readily under reflux conditions in tetrahydrofuran and dioxane and without solvent (at 85-90°C). The carrier amines can be recovered by simple acid-base manipulations in good yield and readily recycled to make the borane adducts.

Ion pair basicities of lithio and potassio salts of some secondary amines were determined by equilibration with benzyl compounds.With these bases it is possible to span a range of about 19 pK-units from pK = 27 up to 46.The structural dependence of thermodynamic as well as kinetic basicity is discussed.Some new effective amide bases for preparative purposes are recommended.For the first time the pK-value of toluene has been determined by direct equilibration.It amounts to 40.7 in tetrahydrofuran.
