Efficient C-H Amination Catalysis Using Nickel-Dipyrrin Complexes
Betley, Theodore A.,Clarke, Ryan M.,Dong, Yuyang,Porter, Gerard J.
, p. 10996 - 11005 (2020/07/08)
A dipyrrin-supported nickel catalyst (AdFL)Ni(py) (AdFL: 1,9-di(1-adamantyl)-5-perfluorophenyldipyrrin; py: pyridine) displays productive intramolecular C-H bond amination to afford N-heterocyclic products using aliphatic azide substrates. The catalytic amination conditions are mild, requiring 0.1-2 mol% catalyst loading and operational at room temperature. The scope of C-H bond substrates was explored and benzylic, tertiary, secondary, and primary C-H bonds are successfully aminated. The amination chemoselectivity was examined using substrates featuring multiple activatable C-H bonds. Uniformly, the catalyst showcases high chemoselectivity favoring C-H bonds with lower bond dissociation energy as well as a wide range of functional group tolerance (e.g., ethers, halides, thioetheres, esters, etc.). Sequential cyclization of substrates with ester groups could be achieved, providing facile preparation of an indolizidine framework commonly found in a variety of alkaloids. The amination cyclization reaction mechanism was examined employing nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy to determine the reaction kinetic profile. A large, primary intermolecular kinetic isotope effect (KIE = 31.9 ± 1.0) suggests H-atom abstraction (HAA) is the rate-determining step, indicative of H-atom tunneling being operative. The reaction rate has first order dependence in the catalyst and zeroth order in substrate, consistent with the resting state of the catalyst as the corresponding nickel iminyl radical. The presence of the nickel iminyl was determined by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy observed during catalysis. The activation parameters (ΔH? = 13.4 ± 0.5 kcal/mol; ΔS?= -24.3 ± 1.7 cal/mol·K) were measured using Eyring analysis, implying a highly ordered transition state during the HAA step. The proposed mechanism of rapid iminyl formation, rate-determining HAA, and subsequent radical recombination was corroborated by intramolecular isotope labeling experiments and theoretical calculations.

, p. 7254 - 7259 (2017/11/24)
Reactions of benzyl alcohols with HI in solvent-free conditions were examined. Three types of reactions (iodination, reduction, and ring formation) occurred depending on the degree of crowding around the benzyl position and the benzylic stabilization of substrates. Results also showed that the ring formation to give indanes proceeded efficiently when HI was used, and that compounds with electron-rich aromatic rings gave indane derivatives in good yields.
Compounds of the menthane series. Synthesis of unsaturated primary alcohols with the o- and p-menthane skeletons
Fedorov,Fedorova,Sheverdov,Pavlov,Eremkin
, p. 806 - 812 (2016/07/30)
Precursors to terpene alcohols of the o- and p-menthane series (o-cimen-7-ol and o- and p-cimen-9-ols) were synthesized, and their reduction with lithium in ethylenediamine was studied. The reduction of o- and p-cimen-9-ols in the presence of isopropyl alcohol selectively afforded the corresponding 1,4-dihydro derivatives. Under analogous conditions, o-cimen-7-ol was converted into a mixture of unsaturated hydrocarbons. The reduction with lithium in ethylenediamine in the absence of isopropyl alcohol in all cases gave mixtures of menthene alcohols.
Structure-reactivity relationship of trifluoromethanesulfenates: Discovery of an electrophilic trifluoromethylthiolating reagent
Shao, Xinxin,Xu, Chunfa,Lu, Long,Shen, Qilong
, p. 3012 - 3021 (2015/03/30)
A family of electrophilic trifluoromethanesulfenates was prepared. Structure-reactivity relationship studies showed that the substituted groups on the aryl ring of the trifluoromethylthiolating reagent did not have an obvious influence on their reactivities. A simplified electrophilic trifluoromethylthiolating reagent 1c was then identified that can react with a wide range of nucleophiles such as Grignard reagents, arylboronic acids, alkynes, indoles, β-ketoesters, oxindoles, and sodium sulfinates under mild reaction conditions. A variety of functional groups were tolerated under these conditions.

We report herein Cu-catalyzed aerobic oxygenation of aliphatic C-H bonds with hydroperoxides, which proceeds by 1,5-H radical shift of putative oxygen-centered radicals (O-radicals) derived from hydroperoxides followed by trapping of the resulting carboncentered radicals with molecular oxygen.

Lipase-mediated resolution of substituted 2-aryl-propanols: Application to the enantioselective synthesis of phenolic sesquiterpenes
Serra, Stefano
, p. 619 - 628 (2011/07/08)
A comprehensive study of the lipase-mediated resolution of substituted 2-aryl-propanols is reported. The latter alcohols were submitted to the irreversible acetylation catalyzed either by PPL, CRL, or lipase PS. The enantioselectivity of these transformations was dependent on the type of lipase used. The type of substituents and particularly their position on the aromatic ring strongly affected the selectivity of the reaction. The experiments described prove that PPL is the more versatile lipase catalyzing the acetylation with an enantiomeric ratio (E) value that ranges from 1 up to 144, depending on the substrate used. Conversely, the same transformations were catalyzed by CRL and lipase PS with an enantiomeric ratio value, which is always less than 5. The remarkable behavior of PPL was exploited in the large scale resolution of some substituted 2-aryl-propanols whose enantiomeric forms are relevant building blocks in the enantioselective synthesis of phenolic sesquiterpenes. By these means, the synthesis of (S)-turmeronol B and the formal syntheses of (R)-curcumene, (R)-curcuphenol, (R)-xanthorrhizol, and (R)-curcuhydroquinone were accomplished.
ortho-Effect on the acid-catalyzed hydration of 2-substituted α-methylstyrenes
Prusek, Ondrej,Bures, Filip,Pytela, Oldrich
experimental part, p. 85 - 99 (2009/06/06)
α-Methylstyrene and nine ortho-substituted analogs have been synthesized and the kinetics of their acid-catalyzed hydration in aqueous solutions of sulfuric acid at 25°C have been investigated. The kinetic acidity function HS has been constructed from the dependence of the observed rate constants kobs on the sulfuric acid concentration. The catalytic rate constants of the acid-catalyzed hydration kortho have been calculated as well. The identical shape of the kinetic acidity functions for ortho- and para-derivatives confirms what the consistent mechanism A-SE2 of the acid-catalyzed hydration has already proved for the corresponding paraderivatives. The A-SE2 mechanism involves a rate-determining proton transfer of the hydrated proton to the substrate. From the dependence of the catalytic rate constants of the ortho-derivatives on the catalytic rate constants of the para-derivatives, it is seen that the logarithm of the catalytic rate constant for hydrogen as a substituent is markedly out of the range of the other substituents and, simultaneously, that the ortho-derivatives react significantly slower than the corresponding para-derivatives. In correlation with the substitent constants σp+, a reaction constant of ρ+= -1.45 have been found. The constant is, in absolute value, considerably smaller than that for para-derivatives (ρ+ = -3.07). In parallel, the steric effects are enforced more significantly for the monoatomic substituents (slope of the Charton's constants 3.92) than for substituents including more atoms (slope of the Charton's constants 2.09). A small value of the reaction constant ρ+ has been elucidated due to the lower conjugation between the reaction centre and the benzene ring as a consequence of the geometric twist of the reaction centre out of the main aromatic plane accompanied by fading mesomeric interaction between the reaction centre and the substituents attached to the benzene ring. The isopropyl group in the carbocation is twisted less out of the aromatic plane for the monoatomic substituents and, therefore, also a small difference in the bulk of substituents has considerable steric influence on the conjugation between the carbocation and the benzene ring bearing substituents. On the contrary, the isopropyl group in the carbocations with polyatomic substituents is twisted to such a degree that changes in the bulk of substituents affect the resonant stabilization negligibly. Similar conclusions were also deduced from the correlations of the substitution constants σI and σR+.

Sherrill, William M.,Kim, Ryan,Rubin, Michael
, p. 8610 - 8617 (2008/12/21)
A convenient preparative protocol for the synthesis of various 3-arylcyclopropenes in a multigram scale is disclosed. Optimization of the reaction conditions and isolation procedures allowed for significant improvement of the chemical yields of these strained products. The described protocol was used for efficient preparation of a series of 3-methyl-3-arylcyclopropenes possessing different substituents in the aromatic ring. The effect of substitution in the aryl group on the stability of 3-arylcyclopropenes, as well as the corresponding precursors, is discussed.
