- Visible-Light-Promoted Formation of C—C and C—P Bonds Derived from Evolution of Bromoalkynes under Additive-Free Conditions: Synthesis of 1,1-Dibromo-1-en-3-ynes and Alkynylphosphine Oxides
-
The controllable achievement of C—C and C—P bond formations is developed via visible-light-promoted bromoalkyne dimerization or its further transformation with secondary phosphine oxides. The 1,1-dibromo-1-en-3-ynes are formed when bromoalkyne is exposed to visible-light. While alkynylphosphine oxides are generated when bromoalkynes are mixed with secondary phosphine oxides.

- Fully Substituted Conjugate Benzofuran Core: Multiyne Cascade Coupling and Oxidation of Cyclopropenone
-
An unprecedented C═C double bond cleavage of cyclopropenone and dioxygen activation by multiyne cascade coupling has been developed. This chemistry provides a novel, simple, and efficient approach to synthesize fully substituted conjugate benzofuran derivatives from simple substrates under mild conditions. The density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveal that the unique homolytic cleavages of cyclopropenone and molecular oxygen are crucial to the success of this reaction.

A method for the intermolecular annulation of benzynes with allenes is disclosed. This protocol utilized allenes as an unconventional diene component for the selective synthesis of phenanthrenes and dihydrophenanthrenes under the control of different benzyne precursors, featuring high atom-economy and good functional group compatibility.

A visible-light-promoted oxo-sulfonylation of ynamides with sulfonic acids is reported, giving rise to a collection of functionalized α-sulfonylated amides in a straightforward manner. The reaction proceeds sequentially through a cascade of electrophilic addition and photoinduced sulfonyl radical-sustained skeleton rearrangement.

An unprecedented nickel-catalyzed reductive 1,2-dialkynylation of alkenes bearing an 8-aminoquinoline directing group has been developed. This method proceeded through a migratory insertion/reductive-coupling process under mild conditions with a wide substrate scope and good functional group tolerance, providing direct access to the synthetically flexible 1,5-diynes. Moreover, the 1,2-dialkynylation products could be further converted to borate-ester- or azide-functionalized 1,5-dienes, ditriazole, β-diyne primary amide, and trisubstituted benzene.

We herein report the gold(iii)-catalyzed selective annulation of anthranils with N-allylynamides under mild conditions. By trapping the in situ-generated α-imino gold carbenes, 3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexan-2-imines were obtained in high synthetic efficiency. The reaction, which can be conducted in the gram scale, tolerates electron-rich and electron-deficient anthranils as well as a diverse set of functionalized ynamides (aryl- and alkyl-substituted terminal).

A visible light-induced cascade cyclization of thioamides with alkynes was developed to synthesize 1,3-thiozoles. The sulfur radical generated from thioamide via the single-electron transfer (SET) pathway was promoted by photocatalysis as a key intermediate in this reaction. When bromoalkynes were used as the substrate, the self-coupling products 1,1-dibromo-1-en-3-ynes were obtained in moderate yields, and an energy transfer pathway for this transformation promoted by visible-light photocatalysis was proposed.

- Copper-mediated synthesis of N-vinyl ynamides from N-vinyl carbamates
-
Ynamides are versatile 3-atoms building blocks for organic synthesis as they participate in a variety of ionic, radical and pericyclic processes. Converting ynamides into 5-atom building blocks, such as the yet unreported N-vinyl ynamides, would open new avenues in this fascinating chemistry. We describe herein our efforts towards such goal and demonstrate that the cross-coupling between N-vinyl carbamates and bromo-alkynes using copper(I) thiophene carboxylate, 1,10-phenanthroline and tBuOK in DMSO is a reactive system with an improved profile compared to the classical ynamides syntheses. The advantages and limitations of this copper-mediated reaction are discussed.

A palladium-catalyzed oxygenative cross-coupling of ynamides and benzyl bromides has been developed. After subsequent hydrogenation, α,α-disubstituted amide derivatives were obtained in good yields. Migratory insertion of α-oxo palladium carbene species, generated by intermolecular oxidation, is proposed as the key step in this reaction. The study demonstrates the potential of ynamides to serve as carbene precursors in palladium-catalyzed C?C bond-forming cross-coupling reactions.

- Dual Gold-Catalyzed Formal Tetradehydro-Diels–Alder Reactions for the Synthesis of Carbazoles and Indolines

This work reports a dual gold-catalyzed tetradehydro-Diels–Alder reaction for the synthesis of nitrogen-containing aromatic heterocycles. Under the catalytic system (IPrAuNTf2/DIPEA), indolines and carbazoles as well as other N-containing aromatic heterocycles were prepared in high yields with good functional group tolerance. Unlike the traditional thermal tetradehydro-Diels–Alder reactions, diluted reaction concentration and radical prohibitors are not required for this protocol. Experimental data support a mechanism involving gold vinylidene species, which undergoes a 6 π electrocyclization, followed with 1,2-hydrogen shift.

- Highly efficient and recyclable catalyst for the direct chlorination, bromination and iodination of terminal alkynes
-
Direct halogenation, including chlorination, bromination and iodination of terminal alkynes, are of great importance in organic synthesis. Here an efficient and recyclable nano-Ag/g-C3N4 catalyst system was developed and proved to be remarkably active with 39 examples varied from chlorination, bromination to iodination, of which 14 runs have yielded more than 95% of the product. Recycling of the catalyst was also achieved without obvious activity loss after several runs: 99% yield was observed even after 5 runs in the bromination of phenylacetylene. The catalysts system is of low cost and easy to be prepared, making this procedure versatile, convenient and economic.

- TsNBr2mediated oxidative functionalization of alkynes
-
A new approach has been developed for oxidative transformation of alkynes by controlled manipulation of TsNBr2mediated process. Alkynes could be readily converted to ketones and α-bromoketones via an oxybromination–debromination sequence. When alkynes are treated successively with TsNBr2, KI and Na2SO3in a mixture of acetone and water at room temperature, corresponding ketones were obtained. On the other hand, treatment of alkynes with TsNBr2and Na2SO3in a mixture of ethyl acetate, acetone and water at room temperature could produce corresponding α-bromoketones. 1-Bromoalkynes could also be synthesized from corresponding alkynes within a very short time using TsNBr2at room temperature. In all cases, excellent yields of corresponding products are obtained.

- Cobalt(II)-catalyzed electrophilic alkynylation of 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds to form polysubstituted furans via π-π Activation

Polysubstituted furans were obtained with excellent yields via the electrophilic alkynylation of 1,3-dicarbonyl compoundsws with phenyl- or ester-substituted brominated alkynes. The reaction is catalyzed by the inexpensive and readily available catalyst, cobalt(II) chloride, and has a wide substrate scope. The C(sp)-C(sp3) coupling occurs under mild conditions with short reaction times and does not require an inert atmosphere or ligands. It is proposed that the reaction proceeds through a chelation complex of cobalt(II) with the deprotonated 1,3-dicarbonyl compound.

- Palladium-catalyzed alkynylative lactonization of unsaturated bicyclic carboxylic acids: Synthesis of fused polycyclic γ-lactone compounds
-
Unsaturated bicyclic carboxylic acids undergo palladium-catalyzed coupling with bromoalkynes to produce γ-alkynyl lactones in moderate to good yields with excellent chemo- and regioselectivity. The reaction conditions were extremely mild, and functional groups such as methyl, methoxy, chloro, and bromo were tolerated under the optimized reaction conditions. Moreover, γ-chloroalkenyl lactones were facilely synthesized through chloropalladation/carboesterification of electron-deficient C≡C bonds by using molecular oxygen as the sole oxidant. Facile and tandem Pd-catalyzed synthesis of γ-alkynyl lactone and γ-chloroalkenyl lactone derivatives by using readily accessible bromoalkynes and unsaturated bicyclic carboxylic acids is reported. Two subsequent steps, namely, C(sp or sp 2)-C(sp3) bond formation and C-O bond formation, are catalyzed by a single Pd catalyst. The reactions proceed with good yields of the products. Copyright
