Semiheterogeneous Dual Nickel/Photocatalytic (Thio)etherification Using Carbon Nitrides

A carbon nitride material can be combined with homogeneous nickel catalysts for light-mediated cross-couplings of aryl bromides with alcohols under mild conditions. The metal-free heterogeneous semiconductor is fully recyclable and couples a broad range of electron-poor aryl bromides with primary and secondary alcohols as well as water. The application for intramolecular reactions and the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients was demonstrated. The catalytic protocol is applicable for the coupling of aryl iodides with thiols as well.

Switching on elusive organometallic mechanisms with photoredox catalysis

Transition-metal-catalysed cross-coupling reactions have become one of the most used carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom bond-forming reactions in chemical synthesis. Recently, nickel catalysis has been shown to participate in a wide variety of C-C bond-forming reactions, most notably Negishi, Suzuki-Miyaura, Stille, Kumada and Hiyama couplings. Despite the tremendous advances in C-C fragment couplings, the ability to forge C-O bonds in a general fashion via nickel catalysis has been largely unsuccessful. The challenge for nickel-mediated alcohol couplings has been the mechanistic requirement for the critical C-O bond-forming step (formally known as the reductive elimination step) to occur via a Ni(iii) alkoxide intermediate. Here we demonstrate that visible-light-excited photoredox catalysts can modulate the preferred oxidation states of nickel alkoxides in an operative catalytic cycle, thereby providing transient access to Ni(iii) species that readily participate in reductive elimination. Using this synergistic merger of photoredox and nickel catalysis, we have developed a highly efficient and general carbon-oxygen coupling reaction using abundant alcohols and aryl bromides. More notably, we have developed a general strategy to 'switch on' important yet elusive organometallic mechanisms via oxidation state modulations using only weak light and single-electron-transfer catalysts.

Copper and l-sodium ascorbate catalyzed hydroxylation and aryloxylation of aryl halides

CuSO4·5H2O and NaAsc catalyzed hydroxylation and C-O/C-S cross-coupling reactions of aryl halides with phenols or 4-methylbenzenethiol were described. A wide range of substrates and test cases highlight the synthetic utility of the approach. A series of phenols, diaryl ethers, alkylaryl ethers, and diaryl thioethers were synthesized in high yield.

Heterogeneous palladium-catalyzed synthesis of aromatic ethers by solvent-free dehydrogenative aromatization: Mechanism, scope, and limitations under aerobic and non-aerobic conditions

Starting from cyclohexanone derivatives and alcohols, both non-aromatic precursors, aryl ethers could be synthesized in good yields and with good selectivities in the presence of a catalytic amount of Pd/C, in one step, without added solvent, in a reaction vessel open to air. For less reactive substrates, the addition of 1-octene in a closed system under non-aerobic conditions improved the conversion. In addition, the catalyst could be recycled several times with no decrease in the yield of the aryl ether. The process was also used with tetralone derivatives and polyols. Several reactions were performed to propose a mechanism for this transformation. The formation of an enol ether followed by a dehydrogenation reaction seem to be the key steps of this reaction. Aryl ethers were prepared in good yields and with good selectivities in a solvent-free and heterogeneous catalytic dehydrogenative alkylation of cyclohexanones with various alcohols. Three different complementary routes were used, and for the first time, non-aerobic, safe conditions could be used. Moreover, the catalyst could be recycled several times with no decrease in the yield of the aryl ether. Copyright
