The invention relates to a continuous nucleophilic addition and beta-fluorine elimination reaction method of 2,2-difluoroolefin and ammonia water in a catalyst-free and additive-free system. The method comprises the following steps: adding a 2,2-difluoroolefin compound, ammonia water and a solvent into a Schlenk reaction flask, and conducting stirring and reacting at a certain temperature in an air atmosphere to obtain the product aryl acetonitrile derivative.
Pd/C-Catalyzed methoxycarbonylation of aryl chlorides
Ai, Han-Jun,Franke, Robert,Wu, Xiao-Feng
, (2020/06/19)
A new protocol for the methoxycarbonylation of aryl chlorides has been developed. Various methyl benzoates were produced in good to excellent yields. Several parameters are crucial for the success of this procedure: 1) the usage of LiOMe as the base or co-nucleophile which facilitate the carbonylative transformation; 2) employing Pd/C as the catalyst to prevent the palladium reduced by MeOH and subsequent agglomerate; 3) CO concentration, excessive CO concentration will directly lead to the termination of the reaction.

Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) have emerged as promising therapeutics for the treatment of neurodegeneration, cancer, and rare disorders. Herein, we report the development of a series of spiroindoline-based HDAC6 isoform-selective inhibitors based on the X-ray crystal studies of the hit 6a. We identified compound 6j as the most potent and selective hHDAC6 inhibitor of the series. Biological investigation of compounds 6b, 6h, and 6j demonstrated their antiproliferative activity against several cancer cell lines. Western blotting studies indicated that they were able to increase tubulin acetylation, without significant variation in histone acetylation state, and induced PARP cleavage indicating their apoptotic potential at the molecular level. 6j induced HDAC6-dependent pSTAT3 inhibition.

Here, we demonstrate that a metallaphotoredox-catalyzed cross-electrophile coupling mechanism provides a unified method for the α-arylation of diverse activated alkyl chlorides, including α-chloroketones, α-chloroesters, α-chloroamides, α-chlorocarboxylic acids, and benzylic chlorides. This strategy, which is effective for a wide variety of aryl bromide coupling partners, is predicated upon a halogen atom abstraction/nickel radical-capture mechanism that is generically successful across an extensive range of carbonyl substrates. The construction and use of arylacetic acid products have further enabled two-step protocols for the delivery of valuable building blocks for medicinal chemistry, such as aryldifluoromethyl and diarylmethane motifs.
Palladium-Catalyzed, ortho-Selective C-H Halogenation of Benzyl Nitriles, Aryl Weinreb Amides, and Anilides
Das, Riki,Kapur, Manmohan
, p. 1114 - 1126 (2018/06/18)
A palladium-catalyzed, ortho-selective C-H halogenation methodology is reported herein. The highlight of the work is the highly selective C(sp2)-H functionalization of benzyl nitriles in the presence of activated C(sp3)-H bond, which results in good yields of the halogenated products with excellent regioselectivity. Along with benzyl nitriles, aryl Weinreb amides and anilides have been evaluated for the transformation using aprotic conditions. Mechanistic studies yield interesting aspects with respect to the pathway of the reaction and the directing group abilities.

The selective synthesis of multiarylated acetonitriles via sequential palladium-catalyzed arylations of chloroacetonitrile is reported. The three aryl groups are installed via a Pd-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura cross coupling reaction followed by back-to-back C-H arylations to afford triarylacetonitriles in three steps with no over-arylation at any step. The triarylacetonitrile products can be converted into highly functionalized species including tetraarylmethanes. This new strategy provides rapid access to a variety of unsymmetrical tri- and tetraarylmethane derivatives from simple, readily available starting materials. (Chemical Presented)

An efficient alkylation method of functionalized alkyl halides under mild nickel-catalyzed C(sp3)-(sp2) Suzuki cross-coupling conditions is described. The features of this approach are excellent functional group compatibility, low cost nickel catalyst, and the use of a mild base. This is also the first successful example of the nickel-catalyzed direct 2,2-difluoroethylation or 2,2,2-trifluoroethylation of aryl-/heteroarylboronic acids.

Transition-metal-free synthesis of α-aryl esters and nitriles using arylboronic acids with α-aminoesters and α-aminoacetonitriles, respectively, as the starting materials has been developed. The reaction represents a rare case of converting C(sp3)-N bonds into C(sp3)-C(sp2) bonds. The reaction conditions are mild, demonstrate good functional-group tolerance, and can be scaled up. Touch base: A transition-metal-free protocol for the synthesis of α-aryl esters and nitriles by deaminative coupling is presented. Strong bases and transition-metal catalysts are not needed. The new synthetic method uses readily available starting materials and demonstrates wide substrate scope.

A library of 19 binol-derived chiral monophosphites that contain a phthalic acid diamide group (Phthala- Phos) has been designed and synthesized in four steps. These new ligands were screened in the rhodium-catalyzed enantioselective hydrogenation of prochiral dehydroamino esters and enamides. Several members of the library showed excellent enantioselectivity with methyl 2-acetamido acrylate (6 ligands gave >97% ee), methyl (Z)-2- acetamido cinnamate (6 ligands gave >94% ee), and N-(1-phenylvinyl)acetamide (9 ligands gave >95% ee), whilst only a few representatives afforded high enantioselectivities for challenging and industrially relevant substrates N-(3,4-dihydronaphthalen-1- yl)-acetamide (96% ee in one case) and methyl (E)-2-(acetamidomethyl)-3- phenylacrylate (99% ee in one case). In most cases, the new ligands were more active and more stereoselective than their structurally related monodentate phosphites (which are devoid of functional groups that are capable of hydrogen-bonding interactions). Control experiments and kinetic studies were carried out that allowed us to demonstrate that hydrogen-bonding interactions involving the diamide group of the PhthalaPhos ligands strongly contribute to their outstanding catalytic properties. Computational studies carried out on a rhodium precatalyst and on a conceivable intermediate in the hydrogenation catalytic cycle shed some light on the role played by hydrogen bonding, which is likely to act in a substrate-orientation effect.
