Pd-Catalyzed Coupling of N-Tosylhydrazones with Benzylic Phosphates: Toward the Synthesis of Di- or Tri-Substituted Alkenes

This study shows that various di- and tri-substituted alkenes with high chemoselectivity were obtained in good to high yields by coupling N-tosylhydrazones (NTHs) with benzylic phosphates as electrophilic partners. The obtained new catalytic system consis

Aza-peterson olefinations: Rapid synthesis of (E)-alkenes

An aza-Peterson olefination methodology to access 1,3-dienes and stilbene derivatives from the corresponding allyl- or benzyltrimethylsilane is described. Silanes can be deprotonated using Schlosser's base and added to N -phenyl imines or ketones to directly give the desired products in high yields.

METHODS OF ARENE ALKENYLATION

The present disclosure provides for a rhodium-catalyzed oxidative arene alkenylation from arenes and styrenes to prepare stilbene and stilbene derivatives. For example, the present disclosure provides for method of making arenes or substituted arenes, in particular stilbene and stilbene derivatives, from a reaction of an optionally substituted arene and/or optionally substituted styrene. The reaction includes a Rh catalyst or Rh pre-catalyst material and an oxidant, where the Rh catalyst or Rh catalyst formed Rh pre-catalyst material selectively functionalizes CH bond on the arene compound (e.g., benzene or substituted benzene).

N-Heterocyclic carbene palladium (II)-pyridine (NHC-Pd (II)-Py) complex catalyzed heck reactions

A mild, efficient, and practical catalytic system for the synthesis of highly privileged stilbene pharmacophores is reported. This system uses N-heterocyclic carbene palladium (II) Pyridine (NHC-Pd (II)-Py) complex to catalyze the formation of carbon-carbon bonds between olefin derivatives and various bromide. This simple, gentle and user-friendly method can offer a variety of stilbene products in excellent yields under solvent-free condition. And its scale-up reaction has excellent yield and this system can be applied to industrial fields. The utility of this method is highlighted by its universality and modular synthesis of a series of bioactive molecules or important medical intermediates.

Mizoroki-Heck Reaction of Unstrained Aryl Ketones via Ligand-Promoted C-C Bond Olefination

Mizoroki-Heck reaction of unstrained aryl ketone with acrylate/styrene is accomplished via palladium-catalyzed ligand-promoted C-C bond cleavage. Various (hetero)aryl ketones are compatible in the reaction, affording the alkene product in good to excellent yields. Further applications in the late-stage olefination of some drugs, natural products, and fragrance-derived aryl ketones demonstrate the synthetic utility of this protocol. By employing ketone as both the directing group and the leaving group, 1,2-bifunctionalization is achieved via sequential ortho-C-H alkylation/ipso-Heck olefination.

Dinuclear cobalt complex-catalyzed stereodivergent semireduction of alkynes: Switchable selectivities controlled by H2O

Catalytic semireduction of internal alkynes to alkenes is very important for organic synthesis. Although great success has been achieved in this area, switchable Z/E stereoselectivity based on a single catalyst for the semireduction of internal alkynes is a longstanding challenge due to the multichemo- and stereoselectivity, especially based on less-expensive earth-abundant metals. Herein, we describe a switchable semireduction of alkynes to (Z)- or (E)-alkenes catalyzed by a dinuclear cobalt complex supported by a macrocyclic bis pyridyl diimine (PDI) ligand. It was found that cis-reduction of the alkyne occurs first and the Z-E alkene stereoisomerization process is formally controlled by the amount of H2O, since the concentration of H2O may influence the catalytic activity of the catalyst for isomerization. Therefore, this protocol provides a facile way to switch to either the (Z)- or (E)-olefin isomer in a single transformation by adjusting the amount of water.

Tandem Acceptorless Dehydrogenative Coupling-Decyanation under Nickel Catalysis

The development of new catalytic processes based on abundantly available starting materials by cheap metals is always a fascinating task and marks an important transition in the chemical industry. Herein, a nickel-catalyzed acceptorless dehydrogenative coupling of alcohols with nitriles followed by decyanation of nitriles to access diversely substituted olefins is reported. This unprecedented C=C bond-forming methodology takes place in a tandem manner with the formation of formamide as a sole byproduct. The significant advantages of this strategy are the low-cost nickel catalyst, good functional group compatibility (ether, thioether, halo, cyano, ester, amino, N/O/S heterocycles; 43 examples), synthetic convenience, and high reaction selectivity and efficiency.

Fe3O4-Lignin@Pd-NPs: A highly efficient, magnetically recoverable and recyclable catalyst for Mizoroki-Heck reaction under solvent-free conditions

Palladium nanoparticles (Pd-NPs) were synthesized under green conditions in water by chemical reduction of PdCl2 with NaOH and supported by Fe3O4-Lignin. Fe3O4-Lignin is an organic–inorganic hybrid core-shell was synthesized by sonication of a mixture of Fe3O4-NPs (20 nm) and alkali lignin. The new materials Fe3O4-Lignin and Fe3O4-Lignin@Pd-NPs were characterized by PXRD, SEM and FT-IR spectroscopy. The Fe3O4-Lignin@Pd-NPs was further confirmed by UV–Visible spectroscopy, TEM, EDX, HRICP-AES and TGA/DTA. The average size of Pd-NPs determined from PXRD was 5–10 nm. The amount of palladium loaded on Fe3O4-Lignin obtained from EDX analysis was 26.63percent by mass. The amount of Fe and Pd present in the catalyst obtained from HRICP-AES was 11.88 (wt. percent) and 10.90 (wt. percent) respectively per gram of lignin. The catalytic potential of Fe3O4-Lignin@Pd-NPs was evaluated in Mizoroki-Heck C-C coupling reaction. During the optimization studies of reaction between iodobenzene and n-butyl acrylate in various solvents and under solvent-free but aerobic conditions using various inorganic and organic bases, the product n-butyl 3-phenylprop-2-enoate (1a) obtained was as high as 95percent in highly polar solvents as short as in 10 min and 99percent under solvent-free conditions in 3 min at 140 °C using n-Pr3N as base. The scope of the above catalyst was investigated in the Mizoroki-Heck reaction of various aryl/heterocyclic halides and n-butyl acrylate/styrene under optimized solvent-less conditions. The corresponding products were obtained in high yields (73–99percent). The catalyst recovered by magnetic decantation was reused for five times in the C-C coupling reaction between iodobenzene and n-butyl acrylate which yielded 90–95percent of the desired product, 1a.

Ionic liquid-mediated benzoyl transfer-coupling in the Suzuki and Sonogashira reactions and aryl transfer-coupling by decarbonylative Heck reaction, using N-Benzoyl-saccharin (NBSac) as reagent

The efficacy of N-benzoyl-saccharin (NBSac) as reagent for selective benzoyl transfer-coupling in the Suzuki reaction in BMIM-IL/[PAIM][NTf2] as solvent/base, and in the Sonogashira reaction employing guanidinium-IL (GIL) as solvent, are demonstrated. Decarbonylative aryl transfer-coupling occurs in the Heck reaction employing GIL as solvent. The reactions are catalyzed by Pd(OAc)2 or NiCl2(dppp), are performed under mild conditions in good yields, and have the potential for recycling/reuse of the IL solvent. Collectively, these methods provide facile access to diverse libraries of diarylketones, keto-ethynes and diaryl-ethenes.

A Bidentate Ru(II)-NC Complex as a Catalyst for Semihydrogenation of Alkynes to (E)-Alkenes with Ethanol

Four Ru(II)-NC complexes were tested as catalysts for semihydrogenation of internal alkynes to (E)-alkenes with ethanol, and the complex {(C5H4N)(C6H4)}RuCl(CO)(PPh3)2 (1a) showed the highest activity. The reactions proceeded well with 1 mol % catalyst loading and 0.1 equiv of t-BuONa at 110 °C for 1 h, and 32 alkenes were synthesized with excellent E:Z selectivity. This is the first ruthenium-catalyzed semihydrogenation of internal alkynes to (E)-alkenes using ethanol as the hydrogen donor.
