Extended Hydrogen Bond Networks for Effective Proton-Coupled Electron Transfer (PCET) Reactions: The Unexpected Role of Thiophenol and Its Acidic Channel in Photocatalytic Hydroamidations

Preorganization and aggregation in photoredox catalysis can significantly affect reactivities or selectivities but are often neglected in synthetic and mechanistic studies, since the averaging effect of flexible ensembles can effectively hide the key activation signatures. In addition, aggregation effects are often overlooked due to highly diluted samples used in many UV studies. One prominent example is Knowles's acceleration effect of thiophenol in proton-coupled electron transfer mediated hydroamidations, for which mainly radical properties were discussed. Here, cooperative reactivity enhancements of thiophenol/disulfide mixtures reveal the importance of H-bond networks. For the first time an in-depth NMR spectroscopic aggregation and H-bond analysis of donor and acceptor combined with MD simulations was performed revealing that thiophenol acts also as an acid. The formed phosphate-H+-phosphate dimers provide an extended H-bond network with amides allowing a productive regeneration of the photocatalyst to become effective. The radical and acidic properties of PhSH were substituted by Ph2S2 and phosphoric acid. This provides a handle for optimization of radical and ionic channels and yields accelerations up to 1 order of magnitude under synthetic conditions. Reaction profiles with different light intensities unveil photogenerated amidyl radical reservoirs lasting over minutes, substantiating the positive effect of the H-bond network prior to radical cyclization. We expect the presented concepts of effective activation via H-bond networks and the reactivity improvement via the separation of ionic and radical channels to be generally applicable in photoredox catalysis. In addition, this study shows that control of aggregates and ensembles will be a key to future photocatalysis.

Synthesis of 5-[(Pentafluorosulfanyl)methyl]-γ-butyrolactones via a Silver-Promoted Intramolecular Cyclization Reaction

The synthesis of 5-[(pentafluorosulfanyl)methyl]-γ-butyrolactones bearing different substituents at position 3 or 4 is reported. A silver-promoted intramolecular cyclization of substituted 4-chloro-5-(pentafluorosulfanyl)pentanoic acids allows the preparation of the substituted SF5-containing γ-butyrolactones in up to 96 % yield.

Rapid Access to Thiolactone Derivatives through Radical-Mediated Acyl Thiol-Ene and Acyl Thiol-Yne Cyclization

A new synthetic approach to thiolactones that employs an efficient acyl thiol-ene (ATE) or acyl thiol-yne (ATY) cyclization to convert unsaturated thiocarboxylic acid derivatives into thiolactones under very mild conditions is described. The high overall yields, fast kinetics, high diastereoselectivity, excellent regiocontrol, and broad substrate scope of these reaction processes render this a very useful approach for diversity-oriented synthesis and drug discovery efforts. A detailed computational rationale is provided for the observed regiocontrol.
