Is the Electrophilicity of the Metal Nitrene the Sole Predictor of Metal-Mediated Nitrene Transfer to Olefins? Secondary Contributing Factors as Revealed by a Library of High-Spin Co(II) Reagents

Recent research has highlighted the key role played by the electron affinity of the active metal-nitrene/imido oxidant as the driving force in nitrene additions to olefins to afford valuable aziridines. The present work showcases a library of Co(II) reage

Ni-Catalyzed Carboxylation of Aziridines en Route to β-Amino Acids

A Ni-catalyzed reductive carboxylation of N-substituted aziridines with CO2 at atmospheric pressure is disclosed. The protocol is characterized by its mild conditions, experimental ease, and exquisite chemo- and regioselectivity pattern, thus unlocking a new catalytic blueprint to access β-amino acids, important building blocks with considerable potential as peptidomimetics.

Manganese-catalyzed aziridination of olefins with chloramine-T in water and buffered aqueous solutions

A water-soluble, manganese-porphyrin complex was used to catalytically generate aziridines from olefins in moderate to good yields (up to 93%) upon optimization at room temperature and in aqueous media. Reactions using chloramine-T at slightly acidic to n

Synthesis of β-Phenethylamines via Ni/Photoredox Cross-Electrophile Coupling of Aliphatic Aziridines and Aryl Iodides

A photoassisted Ni-catalyzed reductive cross-coupling between tosyl-protected alkyl aziridines and commercially available (hetero)aryl iodides is reported. This mild and modular method proceeds in the absence of stoichiometric heterogeneous reductants and uses an inexpensive organic photocatalyst to access medicinally valuable β-phenethylamine derivatives. Unprecedented reactivity was achieved with the activation of cyclic aziridines. Mechanistic studies suggest that the regioselectivity and reactivity observed under these conditions are a result of nucleophilic iodide ring opening of the aziridine to generate an iodoamine as the active electrophile. This strategy also enables cross-coupling with Boc-protected aziridines.

An Electron-Poor Dioxa-[2.1.1]-(2,6)-pyridinophane Ligand and Its Application in Cu-Catalyzed Olefin Aziridination

A novel macrocyclic 1,7-dioxa-[2.1.1]-(2,6)-pyridinophane ligand has been synthesized and crystallographically characterized. Two derived metal complexes, dichloropalladium(II) and chlorocopper(I), were prepared. In the palladium(II) complex LPdCl2/

Tandem aziridine ring opening-disulfide formation-reduction-Michael addition in one-pot mediated by tetrathiomolybdate

Abstract A detailed study of tetrathiomolybdate mediated tandem regio- and stereoselective ring opening of aziridine, disulfide formation, reduction of disulfide bond and Michael reaction in a one-pot operation is reported. This constitutes four reactions

A versatile tripodal Cu(I) reagent for C-N bond construction via nitrene-transfer chemistry: Catalytic perspectives and mechanistic insights on C-H aminations/amidinations and olefin aziridinations

A CuI catalyst (1), supported by a framework of strongly basic guanidinato moieties, mediates nitrene-transfer from PhI=NR sources to a wide variety of aliphatic hydrocarbons (C-H amination or amidination in the presence of nitriles) and olefins (aziridination). Product profiles are consistent with a stepwise rather than concerted C-N bond formation. Mechanistic investigations with the aid of Hammett plots, kinetic isotope effects, labeled stereochemical probes, and radical traps and clocks allow us to conclude that carboradical intermediates play a major role and are generated by hydrogen-atom abstraction from substrate C-H bonds or initial nitrene-addition to one of the olefinic carbons. Subsequent processes include solvent-caged radical recombination to afford the major amination and aziridination products but also one-electron oxidation of diffusively free carboradicals to generate amidination products due to carbocation participation. Analyses of metal- and ligand-centered events by variable temperature electrospray mass spectrometry, cyclic voltammetry, and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy, coupled with computational studies, indicate that an active, but still elusive, copper-nitrene (S = 1) intermediate initially abstracts a hydrogen atom from, or adds nitrene to, C-H and C=C bonds, respectively, followed by a spin flip and radical rebound to afford intra- and intermolecular C-N containing products.

Synthesis of 1,4-benzoxazepine derivatives via a novel domino aziridine ring-opening and isocyanide-insertion reaction

A novel and efficient domino process has been developed for the synthesis of 1,4-benzoxazepine derivatives from a range of readily accessible N-tosylaziridines, 2-iodophenols and isocyanides. This process involves the aziridine ring-opening reaction with 2-iodophenol, followed by a palladium-catalyzed isocyanide-insertion reaction. This regioselective and high-yielding transformation could be extended to its application for the synthesis of natural products and biologically interesting heterocycles. Copyright

A rapid and facile method for the general synthesis of 3-aryl substituted 4,5,6,7-tetrahydro[1,2,3]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrazines and their ring fused analogues

We report a general and facile method that provides rapid entry into 3-aryl substituted 4,5,6,7-tetrahydro[1,2,3]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrazines and their ring fused analogues in one-pot under palladium-copper catalysis. The methodology utilises simple and easily available substrates of broad range. The applicability of this reaction for the synthesis of optically active products has been demonstrated. A plausible reaction mechanism has also been proposed.
