, p. 3336 - 3340 (2021/09/09)
An efficient tandem route to obtain tetrasubstituted NH pyrroles in a one-pot manner has been developed, staring from simple nitriles, ethyl bromoacetates, and zinc. This reaction involves oxidative dimerization of the zinc bromide complex of β-enaminoesters using cerium ammonium nitrate (CAN) as an oxidant, affording 2,3,4,5-tetrasubstituted pyrroles in yields up to 91%.

An efficient and unprecedented strategy for the synthesis of 1,4-enediones from saturated ketones has been developed via palladium-catalyzed oxidative dehydrogenation. The protocol employs molecular oxygen as the sole oxidant and represents an atom- and step-economic process. The approach showed broad substrate scope, good functional group tolerance, and complete E-stereoselectivity. The reaction mechanism has been investigated through deuterium-labeling experiments and intermediate experiments.

Vinyl azides are very reactive species and as such are useful building blocks, in particular, in the synthesis of N-heterocycles. They can also serve as precursors of ketones. These form in reactions of vinyl azides with nucleophiles or radicals. We have found, however, that under light irradiation vitamin B12 catalyzes the reaction of vinyl azides with electrophiles to afford unsymmetrical carbonyl compounds in decent yields. Mechanistic studies revealed that alkyl radicals are key intermediates in this transformation.

Herein, we report a protocol for visible-light-mediated radical coupling reactions of α-chloroketones and enol acetates to afford 1,4-dicarbonyl compounds, which are important precursors and intermediates in organic synthesis. The reaction involves photoredox-catalyzed activation of the α-chloroketone upon photoelectron transfer, carbon–chlorine bond cleavage, and coupling of the resulting radical with the carbon–carbon double bond of the enol acetate. This mild protocol has a wide substrate scope and moderate to good yields. (Figure presented.).

The utilizations of omnipresent, thermodynamically stable amides and aliphatic C(sp3)?H bonds for various functionalizations are ongoing challenges in catalysis. In particular, the direct coupling between the two functional groups has not been realized. Here, we report the synergistic activation of the two challenging bonds, the amide C?N and unactivated aliphatic C(sp3)?H, via metallaphotoredox catalysis to directly acylate aliphatic C?H bonds utilizing amides as stable and readily accessible acyl surrogates. N-acylsuccinimides served as efficient acyl reagents for the streamlined synthesis of synthetically useful ketones from simple C(sp3)?H substrates. Detailed mechanistic investigations using both computational and experimental mechanistic studies were performed to construct a detailed and complete catalytic cycle. The origin of the superior reactivity of the N-acylsuccinimides over other more reactive acyl sources such as acyl chlorides was found to be an uncommon reaction pathway which commences with C?H activation prior to oxidative addition of the acyl substrate.

The first example of the Pd-catalyzed addition of organoboron reagents to dinitriles, as an efficient means of preparing 2,5-diarylpyrroles and 2,6-diarylpyridines, has been discussed here. Furthermore, the highly selective carbopalladation of dinitriles with organoboron reagents to give long-chain ketonitriles has been developed as well. Based on the broad scope of substrates, excellent functional group tolerance, and use of commercially available substrates, the Pd-catalyzed addition reaction of arylboronic acid and dinitriles is expected to be significant in future synthetic procedures.

A Ru (II) complex bearing pyridyl-based benzimidazole-phosphine tridentate NNP ligand was synthesized and structurally characterized by NMR, IR. The complex can efficiently and selectively catalyze the acceptorless dehydrogenation of primary alcohols to esters under relatively mild conditions and the synthesis of pyrroles by means of the reactions of secondary alcohols and β-amino alcohols through acceptorless deoxygenation condensation.

Palladium-catalyzed site-selective dearomative C2-arylation of 2,5-diaryl-1H-pyrroles with aryl chlorides was accomplished, and a series of 2,2,5-triaryl-2H-pyrroles were synthesized. In addition, the site selectivity of the reaction was switched by simply changing the ligand, and the direct C3-arylated 2,3,5-triaryl-1H-pyrroles were prepared. The obtained 2,2,5-triaryl-2H-pyrroles could be further transformed into 2,2,5,5-tetraarylpyrrolidines.

General Transition Metal-Free Synthesis of NH-Pyrroles from Secondary Alcohols and 2-Aminoalcohols
Krasniqi, Besir,Geerts, Kayle,Dehaen, Wim
, p. 5027 - 5034 (2019/05/10)
A novel, transition metal-free and one-pot methodology to synthesize various substituted NH-pyrroles from readily available building blocks such as secondary alcohols and 2-aminoalcohols is described. The process is based on the venerable Oppenauer-Woodward oxidation, which uses benzophenone as an inexpensive reagent to achieve oxidation of secondary alcohols under mild condition to ketones, further in situ condensation with aminoalcohol, and oxidative cyclization to the target pyrrole ring. The reaction occurs under basic conditions, and features a broad substrate scope combined with very good tolerance for sensitive functional groups. This method can be used to synthesize various substituted pyrroles useful as a starting material for broad applications.
