- Visible-light-driven Cadogan reaction
-
Visible-light-driven photochemical Cadogan-type cyclization has been discovered. The organic D-A type photosensitizer 4CzIPN found to be an efficient mediator to transfer energy from photons to the transient intermediate that breaks the barriers of deoxygenation in Cadogan reaction and enables a mild metal-free access to carbazoles and related heterocycles. DFT calculation results indicate mildly endergonic formation of the intermediate complex of nitrobiarenes and PPh3, which corresponds with experimental findings regarding reaction temperature. The robust synthetic capacity of the photoredox Cadogan reaction systems has been demonstrated by the viable productivity of a broad range of carbazoles and related N-heterocycles with good tolerance of various functionalities.

- NaI/PPh3-Mediated Photochemical Reduction and Amination of Nitroarenes
-
A mild transition-metal- and photosensitizer-free photoredox system based on the combination of NaI and PPh3 was found to enable highly selective reduction of nitroarenes. This protocol tolerates a broad range of reducible functional groups such as halogen (Cl, Br, and even I), aldehyde, ketone, carboxyl, and cyano. Moreover, the photoredox catalysis with NaI and stoichiometric PPh3 provides also an alternative entry to Cadogan-type reductive amination when o-nitrobiarenes were used.

- VP1 crystal structure-guided exploration and optimization of 4,5-dimethoxybenzene-based inhibitors of rhinovirus 14 infection
-
Human rhinoviruses (HRV) are the predominant cause of common colds and flu-like illnesses, but are also responsible for virus-induced exacerbations of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. However, to date, no drug has been approved yet for clinical use. In this study, we present the results of the structure-based lead optimization of a class of new small-molecule inhibitors that we previously reported to bind into the pocket beneath the canyon of the VP1 protein. A small series of analogues that we designed based on the available structure and interaction data were synthesized and evaluated for their potency to inhibit the replication of HRV serotype 14. 2-(4,5-Dimethoxy-2-nitrophenyl)-1-(4-(pyridin-4-yl)phenyl)ethanol (3v) was found to be a potent inhibitor exhibiting micromolar activity (EC50 Combining double low line 3.4 ± 1.0 μM) with a toxicity for HeLa cells that was significantly lower than that of our previous hit (LPCRW-0005, CC50 Combining double low line 104.0 ± 22.2 μM; 3v, CC50 > 263 μM).

- A Highly Efficient Pd(PPh3)4-Catalyzed Suzuki Cross-Coupling Method for the Preparation of 2-Nitrobiphenyls from 1-Chloro-2-nitrobenzenes and Phenylboronic Acids
-
A simple and efficient method for Suzuki cross-coupling of highly substituted and congested 1-chloro-2-nitrobenzene with phenylboronic acid was developed, investigated, and optimized. The reaction conditions comprises a mixture of MeOH and water (4:1) as the reaction medium, readily available and cheap Pd(PPh3)4 as catalyst, sodium carbonate as base, and microwave heating, which affords a fast reaction rate with good outcomes. The procedure was proven to have high functional group tolerance with phenylboronic acid and for 1-chloro-2-nitrobenzene and thus is a general method for the synthesis of 2-nitrobiphenyl. The target scaffold, 2-nitrobiphenyls, was produced in excellent yields with excellent selectivities in all cases. An efficient microwave-assisted and Pd(PPh3)4-catalyzed Suzuki cross-coupling method for the synthesis of 2-nitrobiphenyls from 1-chloro-2-nitrobenzenes and phenylboronic acids is disclosed. The method exhibits excellent selectivity and fast reaction rates, provides high to excellent yields, and tolerates both electron-withdrawing and -donating groups.

- Method For Decarboxylating C-C Cross-Linking Of Carboxylic Acids With Carbon Electrophiles
-
The invention relates to a method for decarboxylating C—C bond formation by reacting carboxylic salts with carbon electrophiles in the presence of transition metal compounds as catalysts. The method represents a decarboxylating C—C bond formation of carboxylic acid salts with carbon electrophiles, wherein the catalyst contains two transition metals and/or transition metal compounds, from which one is present, preferably, in the oxidation step, which are different from each other by one unit, and catalyzes a radical decarboxylation which is absorbed during the second oxidation steps, which are different from each other by two units and catalyzes the two electron processes of a C—C bond formation reaction.

- Palladium/copper-catalyzed decarboxylative cross-coupling of aryl chlorides with potassium carboxylates
-
(Chemical Equation Presented) Even non-activated aryl chlorides undergo decarboxylative cross-coupling reactions in the presence of a catalyst system generated in situ from CuI, 1,10-phenanthroline, PdI2, and di(tert-butyl)biphenylphosphane. The new catalyst is useful for both the synthesis of biaryl compounds from aromatic carboxylates and the synthesis of aryl ketones from salts of α-ketocarboxylic acids (see scheme; FG=functional group; R=aryl, alkyl).

- Biaryl synthesis via Pd-catalyzed decarboxylative coupling of aromatic carboxylates with aryl halides
-
A new strategy for the regiospecific construction of unsymmetrical biaryls is presented, in which easily available salts of carboxylic acids are decarboxylated in situ to give arylmetal species that serve as the nucleophilic component in a catalytic cross-coupling reaction with aryl halides. The catalyst system consists of a copper phenanthroline complex that mediates the extrusion of CO2 from aromatic carboxylates to generate arylcopper species, and a palladium complex that catalyzes the cross-coupling of these intermediates with aryl halides. This bimetallic system allows the direct coupling of various aryl, heteroaryl, or vinyl carboxylic acids with aryl or heteroaryl iodides, bromides, or chlorides at 160°C in the presence of a mild base such as potassium carbonate. The present scope and potential economic impact of the reaction are demonstrated by the synthesis of 42 biaryls, some of which are of substantial industrial relevance. Remaining challenges and future perspectives of the new transformation are discussed.
