We report an efficient and broadly applicable palladium-catalyzed iodination of inexpensive and abundant aryl and vinyl carboxylic acids via in situ activation to the acid chloride and formation of a phosphonium salt. The use of 1-iodobutane as iodide source in combination with a base and a deoxychlorinating reagent gives access to a wide range of aryl and vinyl iodides under Pd/Xantphos catalysis, including complex drug-like scaffolds. Stoichiometric experiments and kinetic analysis suggest a unique mechanism involving C?P reductive elimination to form the Xantphos phosphonium chloride, which subsequently initiates an unusual halogen exchange by outer sphere nucleophilic substitution.

A hydrogen bond donor solvent assisted (radio)halogenation and deuteration of organoborons has been developed. The reactions exhibited high functional group tolerance and needed only an ambient atmosphere. Most importantly, compared to literature methods, our conditions are more consistent with the principals of green chemistry (e.g., metal-free, strong oxidant-free, more straightforward conditions).

The generation of arylzinc reagents (ArZnX) by direct insertion of zinc into the C?X bond of ArX electrophiles has typically been restricted to iodides and bromides. The insertions of zinc dust into the C?O bonds of various aryl sulfonates (tosylates, mesylates, triflates, sulfamates), or into the C?X bonds of other moderate electrophiles (X=Cl, SMe) are catalyzed by a simple NiCl2–1,4-diazadiene catalyst system, in which 1,4-diazadiene (DAD) stands for diacetyl diimines, phenanthroline, bipyridine and related ligands. Catalytic zincation in DMF or NMP solution at room temperature now provides arylzinc sulfonates, which undergo typical catalytic cross-coupling or electrophilic substitution reactions.

While halogenation is of key importance in synthesis and radioimaging, the currently available repertoire is largely designed to introduce a single halogen per molecule. This report makes the selective introduction of several different halogens accessible. Showcased here is the privileged stability of nontoxic aryl germanes under harsh fluorination conditions (that allow selective fluorination in their presence), while displaying superior reactivity and functional-group tolerance in electrophilic iodinations and brominations, outcompeting silanes or boronic esters under rapid and additive-free conditions. Mechanistic experiments and computational studies suggest a concerted electrophilic aromatic substitution as the underlying mechanism.

An investigation into the mechanism of Cu-catalyzed aryl boronic acid halodeboronation using electrophilic halogen reagents is reported. Evidence is provided to show that this takes place via a boronate-driven ipso-substitution pathway and that Cu is not required for these processes to operate: General Lewis base catalysis is operational. This in turn allows the rational development of a general, simple, and effective base-catalyzed halodeboronation that is amenable to the preparation of 125I-labeled products for SPECT applications.

The C–O bonds are kinetically inert in cross-coupling reactions compared to those of carbon–halogen bonds. Thus, developing methodologies for the activation of C–O bonds in cross-coupling reactions remains a major challenge. We disclose an unprecedented nickel mediated cross-coupling of carbamates with silylmagnesium reagents that does not require the expensive silylboranes. Silylmagnesium reagents were prepared from either silyllithium or silyl iodides. This methodology is distinguished by the synthesis of trimethylsilyl coupled product and its synthetic applications. Kinetic studies and radical clock experiments revealed the rate-limiting C–O bond cleavage, half order with respect to the catalyst and a non-radical transition state.
Metathesis-active ligands enable a catalytic functional group metathesis between aroyl chlorides and aryl iodides

Current methods for functional group interconversion have, for the most part, relied on relatively strong driving forces which often require highly reactive reagents to generate irreversibly a desired product in high yield and selectivity. These approaches generally prevent the use of the same catalytic strategy to perform the reverse reaction. Here we describe a catalytic functional group metathesis approach to interconvert, under CO-free conditions, two synthetically important classes of electrophiles that are often employed in the preparation of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals—aroyl chlorides (ArCOCl) and aryl iodides (ArI). Our reaction design relies on the implementation of a key reversible ligand C–P bond cleavage event, which enables a non-innocent, metathesis-active phosphine ligand to mediate a rapid aryl group transfer between the two different electrophiles. Beyond enabling a practical and safer approach to the interconversion of ArCOCl and ArI, this type of ligand non-innocence provides a blueprint for the development of a broad range of functional group metathesis reactions employing synthetically relevant aryl electrophiles.
1,2-Silyl migration in 1-halonaphthalenes catalyzed by I2

1-Halo-8-hydrosilylnaphthalenes undergo 1,2-silyl migration to form 1-halo-7-silylnaphthalenes. The influence of the substituents on the silicon atom, the solvent effect, and the D-labeling experiments are investigated. The migration process may include four steps: (a) generation of acid (HI) by the reaction of the hydrosilane with I2, (b) protonation of the naphthalene ring, (c) silyl group migration in the protonated intermediate, and (d) deprotonation of the naphthalene ring.
An Unprecedented, Lewis Acid-Mediated, Metal-Free Iodoannulation Strategy to Aromatic Iodides

A direct transformation of ortho-alkynylated aromatic vinyl ethers to 1-iodonaphthalenes and other iodo-heterocycles under mild Lewis acidic conditions in the presence of iodide as an external nucleophile is reported. The first example of an iodoannulation strategy using a nucleophilic source of iodine, coupled with good to excellent yields, exclusive alpha regioselectivity and a broad substrate scope makes this work an attractive avenue towards the construction of aromatic iodides.

, p. 930 - 938 (2018/01/28)
Regioselective halogenation of arenes and heterocycles with N-halosuccinimides in fluorinated alcohols is disclosed. Under mild condition reactions, a wide diversity of halogenated arenes are obtained in good yields with high regioselectivity. Additionally, the versatility of the method is demonstrated by the development of one-pot sequential halogenation and halogenation-Suzuki cross-coupling reactions.
