Substantial effort is currently being devoted to obtaining photoredox catalysts with high redox power. Yet, it remains challenging to apply the currently established methods to the activation of bonds with high bond dissociation energy and to substrates with high reduction potentials. Herein, we introduce a novel photocatalytic strategy for the activation of inert substituted arenes for aryl borylation by using thiolate as a catalyst. This catalytic system exhibits strong reducing ability and engages non-activated Caryl–F, Caryl–X, Caryl–O, Caryl–N, and Caryl–S bonds in productive radical borylation reactions, thus expanding the available aryl radical precursor scope. Despite its high reducing power, the method has a broad substrate scope and good functional-group tolerance. Spectroscopic investigations and control experiments suggest the formation of a charge-transfer complex as the key step to activate the substrates.

A highly selective and general photoinduced C-Cl borylation protocol that employs [Ni(IMes)2] (IMes = 1,3-dimesitylimidazoline-2-ylidene) for the radical borylation of chloroarenes is reported. This photoinduced system operates with visible light (400 nm) and achieves borylation of a wide range of chloroarenes with B2pin2 at room temperature in excellent yields and with high selectivity, thereby demonstrating its broad utility and functional group tolerance. Mechanistic investigations suggest that the borylation reactions proceed via a radical process. EPR studies demonstrate that [Ni(IMes)2] undergoes very fast chlorine atom abstraction from aryl chlorides to give [NiI(IMes)2Cl] and aryl radicals. Control experiments indicate that light promotes the reaction of [NiI(IMes)2Cl] with aryl chlorides generating additional aryl radicals and [NiII(IMes)2Cl2]. The aryl radicals react with an anionic sp2-sp3 diborane [B2pin2(OMe)]- formed from B2pin2 and KOMe to yield the corresponding borylation product and the [Bpin(OMe)]?- radical anion, which reduces [NiII(IMes)2Cl2] under irradiation to regenerate [NiI(IMes)2Cl] and [Ni(IMes)2] for the next catalytic cycle.

We report herein the first Cu-catalysed borylation of a wide range of aryl chlorides with different electronic and steric properties using a readily prepared NHC-stabilised Cu catalyst and KOtBu as the base with B2pin2 (pin = pinacolato) as the boron reagent. The aryl chlorides are converted into their corresponding arylboronic esters in good yields. The new procedure shows broad functional group tolerance, and B2neop2 (neop = neopentyl glycolato) can also be applied as the boron reagent.

, p. 16832 - 16836 (2018/11/23)
A metal-free radical borylation of alkyl and aryl iodides with bis(catecholato)diboron (B2cat2) as the boron source under mild conditions is introduced. The borylation reaction is operationally easy to conduct and shows high functional group tolerance and broad substrate scope. Radical clock experiments and density functional theory calculations provide insights into the mechanism and rate constants for C-radical borylation with B2cat2 are disclosed.

, p. 4049 - 4054 (2018/05/22)
An efficient catalytic system based on a Co(II)-NHC precursor has been developed for the cross coupling of bis(pinacolato)diboron with aryl halides including aryl chlorides, affording the aryl boronates in good to excellent yields. A wide range of functional groups are tolerated under mild reaction conditions. The reaction shows excellent chemoselectivity for bromide over chloride. Preliminary mechanistic investigations show that the catalytic cycle may rely on a cobalt(I)-(III) redox couple.

The first photoinduced carbon(sp2)–heteroatom bond forming reaction by a rare-earth-metal photoreductant, a Miyaura borylation, has been achieved. This simple, scalable, and novel borylation method that makes use of the hexachlorocerate(III) anion ([CeIIICl6]3?, derived from CeCl3) has a broad substrate scope and functional-group tolerance and can be conducted at room temperature. Combined with Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling, the method is applicable to the synthesis of various biaryl products, including through the use of aryl chloride substrates.
Copper-Catalyzed ipso-Borylation of Fluoroarenes
Niwa, Takashi,Ochiai, Hidenori,Hosoya, Takamitsu
, p. 4535 - 4541 (2017/07/24)
ipso-Borylation of fluoroarenes has been achieved using an air-stable copper complex as a catalyst. Mechanistic studies suggest that the reaction proceeds via an SRN1 mechanism involving a single-electron-transfer (SET) process and not via the typical SNAr mechanism. This method differs from the previously reported nickel/copper-cocatalyzed system in terms of scope of the substrate and has exhibited good scalability. Double and triple ipso-borylations of several di- and trifluoroarenes have been also achieved efficiently, enhancing the synthetic utility of this method.

Ni/Cu-catalyzed transformation of fluoroarenes to arylboronic acid pinacol esters via C-F bond cleavage has been achieved. Further versatile derivatization of an arylboronic ester has allowed for the facile two-step conversion of a fluoroarene to diverse functionalized arenes, demonstrating the synthetic utility of the method.

We used a combined approach based on fragment-based drug design (FBDD) and in silico methods to design potential inhibitors of the cytosolic 5′-nucleotidase II (cN-II), which has been recognized as an important therapeutic target in hematological cancers. Two subgroups of small compounds (including adenine and biaryl moieties) were identified as cN-II binders and a fragment growing strategy guided by molecular docking was considered. Five compounds induced a strong inhibition of the 5′-nucleotidase activity in vitro, and the most potent ones were characterized as noncompetitive inhibitors. Biological evaluation in cancer cell lines showed synergic effect with selected anticancer drugs. Structural studies using X-ray crystallography lead to the identification of new binding sites for two derivatives and of a new crystal form showing important domain swapping. Altogether, the strategy developed herein allowed identifying new original noncompetitive inhibitors against cN-II that act in a synergistic manner with well-known antitumoral agents.
