- Rh(I)-Catalyzed Intramolecular Decarbonylation of Thioesters
-
Decarbonylative synthesis of thioethers from thioesters proceeds in the presence of a catalytic amount of [Rh(cod)Cl]2 (2 mol %). The protocol represents the first Rh-catalyzed decarbonylative thioetherification of thioesters to yield valuable thioethers. Notable features include the absence of phosphine ligands, inorganic bases, and other additives and excellent group tolerance to aryl chlorides and bromides that are problematic using other metals to promote decarbonylation. Gram scale synthesis, late-stage pharmaceutical derivatization, and orthogonal site-selective cross-couplings by C-S/C-Br cleavage are reported.

- Ni(II) Precatalysts Enable Thioetherification of (Hetero)Aryl Halides and Tosylates and Tandem C?S/C?N Couplings
-
Ni-catalyzed C?S cross-coupling reactions have received less attention compared with other C-heteroatom couplings. Most reported examples comprise the thioetherification of most reactive aryl iodides with aromatic thiols. The use of C?O electrophiles in this context is almost uncharted. Here, we describe that preformed Ni(II) precatalysts of the type NiCl(allyl)(PMe2Ar’) (Ar’=terphenyl group) efficiently couple a wide range of (hetero)aryl halides, including challenging aryl chlorides, with a variety of aromatic and aliphatic thiols. Aryl and alkenyl tosylates are also well tolerated, demonstrating, for the first time, to be competent electrophilic partners in Ni-catalyzed C?S bond formation. The chemoselective functionalization of the C?I bond in the presence of a C?Cl bond allows for designing site-selective tandem C?S/C?N couplings. The formation of the two C-heteroatom bonds takes place in a single operation and represents a rare example of dual electrophile/nucleophile chemoselective process.

- A Visible-Light-Harvesting Covalent Organic Framework Bearing Single Nickel Sites as a Highly Efficient Sulfur–Carbon Cross-Coupling Dual Catalyst
-
Covalent Organic Frameworks (COFs) have recently emerged as light-harvesting devices, as well as elegant heterogeneous catalysts. The combination of these two properties into a dual catalyst has not yet been explored. We report a new photosensitive triazine-based COF, decorated with single Ni sites to form a dual catalyst. This crystalline and highly porous catalyst shows excellent catalytic performance in the visible-light-driven catalytic sulfur–carbon cross-coupling reaction. Incorporation of single transition metal sites in a photosensitive COF scaffold with two-component synergistic catalyst in organic transformation is demonstrated for the first time.

- Dimsyl Anion Enables Visible-Light-Promoted Charge Transfer in Cross-Coupling Reactions of Aryl Halides
-
A methodology is reported for visible-light-promoted synthesis of unsymmetrical chalcogenides enabled by dimsyl anion in the absence of transition-metals or photoredox catalysts. The cross-coupling reaction between aryl halides and diaryl dichalcogenides proceeds with electron-rich, electron-poor, and heteroaromatic moieties. Mechanistic investigations using UV-Vis spectroscopy, time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations, and control reactions suggest that dimsyl anion forms an electron-donor-acceptor (EDA) complex capable of absorbing blue light, leading to a charge transfer responsible for generation of aryl radicals from aryl halides. This previously unreported mechanistic pathway may be applied to other light-induced transformations performed in DMSO in the presence of bases and aryl halides.

- Chan-Lam-Type C-S Coupling Reaction by Sodium Aryl Sulfinates and Organoboron Compounds
-
A Chan-Lam-Type C-S coupling reaction using sodium aryl sulfinates has been developed to provide diaryl thioethers in up to 92% yields in the presence of a copper catalyst and potassium sulfite. Both electron-rich and electron-poor sodium aryl sulfinates and diverse organoboron compounds were tolerated for the synthesis of aryl and heteroaryl thioethers and dithioethers. The mechanistic study suggested that potassium sulfite was involved in the deoxygenation of sulfinate through a radical process.

- Photoactive electron donor-acceptor complex platform for Ni-mediated C(sp3)-C(sp2) bond formation
-
A dual photochemical/nickel-mediated decarboxylative strategy for the assembly of C(sp3)-C(sp2) linkages is disclosed. Under light irradiation at 390 nm, commercially available and inexpensive Hantzsch ester (HE) functions as a potent organic photoreductant to deliver catalytically active Ni(0) species through single-electron transfer (SET) manifolds. As part of its dual role, the Hantzsch ester effects a decarboxylative-based radical generation through electron donor-acceptor (EDA) complex activation. This homogeneous, net-reductive platform bypasses the need for exogenous photocatalysts, stoichiometric metal reductants, and additives. Under this cross-electrophile paradigm, the coupling of diverse C(sp3)-centered radical architectures (including primary, secondary, stabilized benzylic, α-oxy, and α-amino systems) with (hetero)aryl bromides has been accomplished. The protocol proceeds under mild reaction conditions in the presence of sensitive functional groups and pharmaceutically relevant cores.

- DABCO-promoted Diaryl Thioether Formation by Metal-catalyzed Coupling of Sodium Sulfinates and Aryl Iodides
-
A scalable catalytic synthesis method using commodity chemicals for constructing diaryl thioethers directly from sodium arylsulfinates and iodoarenes is reported in this study. In the presence of CuO or other copper salts such as Cu(OAc)2 as well as palladium catalysts, DABCO demonstrated to be essential to promote this transformation. Various iodoarenes and aryl sulfinates were examined and demonstrated the viability of this method. The mechanistic study showed that radical reactions occurred, while DABCO N-oxide radical can be observed by mass spectrometry. A plausible catalytic mechanism involving DABCO is also discussed, suggesting synergistic reduction of sulfinate by Cu(II) and DABCO is the key step of this coupling reaction. (Figure presented.).

- Homoleptic and heteroleptic Zn(ii) selone catalysts for thioetherification of aryl halides without scrubbing oxygen
-
Five new mononuclear tetra-coordinated zinc(ii) selones, [Zn(L1)2Cl2] (1), [Zn(L1)2Br2] (2), [{Zn(L2)4}{BF4}2] (3), [{Zn(L2)4}{ClO4}2] (4), and [Zn(L2)2Br2] (5), have been isolated from a one-pot reaction between the corresponding zinc(ii) salt and selone ligand, 1-methyl 3-naphthylmethylimidazoline-2-selone (L1) or 1-isopropyl 3-methylimidazoline-2-selone (L2). All these complexes were characterized by CHN analysis, FT-IR, NMR studies, and single-crystal X-ray crystallography techniques. The Zn(ii) center in 1-5 exhibits a distorted tetrahedral geometry. Besides, 1-5 were employed as catalysts in the thioetherification of aryl halides. The first zinc(ii) catalyst-mediated thioetherification of aryl halides without scrubbing oxygen was demonstrated. Catalysts 1-5 are highly active towards the cross-coupling reaction between aryl halides and thiophenols. The catalytic ability of 1-5 was explored in THF, toluene, and CH3CN solvents with different bases such as K2CO3, Cs2CO3, and NaOtBu. Interestingly, the zinc(ii) center attached to two selone ligands is much more catalytically active than that attached to four selone ligands.

- Highly active mesoionic chalcogenone zinc(II) derivatives for C-S cross-coupling reactions

The first mesoionic heavier chalcogenones, L1-L3 [L1 = 1-(2-mesitylene)-3-methyl-4-phenyltriazolin-5-selone; L2 = 1-(2-mesitylene)-3-methyl-4-phenyltriazolin-5-thione; L3 = 1-(benzyl)-2-3(methyl)-4-phenyltriazolin-5-selone], were isolated and characterised. Density functional theory was used to obtain insights into the σ donor and π accepting nature of mesoionic chalcogenones. Using these new ligands, a series of the first zinc(ii) mesoionic chalcogenone complexes were isolated. Three mono nuclear zinc(ii) chalcogenone complexes, [(L1)Zn(Cl)2(HOMe)] (1), [(L2)Zn(Cl)2(HOMe)] (3) and [(L2)Zn(Br)2(HOMe)] (4), and two dinuclear zinc complexes, [(L1)Zn(Br)(μ2-Br)]2 (2) and [(L3)Zn(Br)(μ2-Br)]2 (5), containing mesoionic thione and selone ligands were synthesized and characterised. These new complexes 1-5 represent the first structurally characterized mesoionic chalcogenone supported metal derivatives. Furthermore, all zinc complexes were characterized by thermogravimetric analysis and UV-vis spectroscopy. The solid-state structures of all zinc complexes were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The catalytic activities of the zinc(ii) complexes in thioetherification reactions were investigated without scrubbing of oxygen. The scope of the catalytic reactions was explored with a wide range of thiophenols and aryl halides. The diaryl thioethers were obtained in very good yield under mild conditions. The present protocol furnishes a synthetic route for the C-S cross-coupling of thiophenols and aryl halides without scrubbing oxygen and moisture.

- A template free protocol for fabrication of a Ni(ii)-loaded magnetically separable nanoreactor scaffold for confined synthesis of unsymmetrical diaryl sulfides in water

In the present report, an environmentally benign magnetically recoverable nickel(ii)-based nanoreactor as a heterogeneous catalyst has been developedviaa template free approach. The catalytic performance of the synthesized catalyst is assessed in the confined oxidative coupling of arenethiols with arylhydrazines to form unsymmetrical diaryl sulfides under aerobic conditions. The salient features of our protocol include oxidant- and ligand-free conditions, use of water as a green solvent, room temperature and formation of nitrogen and water as the only by-products. Moreover, a broad range of functional groups are tolerated well and provide the corresponding diaryl sulfides in moderate to good yields. Moreover, the heterogeneous nature of the catalyst permits facile magnetic recovery and reusability for up to seven runs, making the present protocol highly desirable from industrial and environmental standpoints.

- Pd (II) immobilized on clinoptilolite as a highly active heterogeneous catalyst for ullmann coupling-type s-arylation of thiols with aryl halides
-
Background: There are a number of protocols for Ullmann coupling–type S-arylation reactions, many of them suffer from the use of homogenous and often corrosive catalyst, cumbersome workup procedures, and long reaction times. Besides, many of these reagents are expensive and non-recoverable, leading to the generation of a large amount of toxic waste particularly when large-scale applications are considered. Objective: The aim of this study was to prepare a new Pd catalyst bonded on the surface of zeolite as a heterogeneous catalyst. Methods: A heterogeneous palladium catalyst has been prepared by immobilizing Pd ions on Clinoptilolite. This novel developed heterogeneous catalyst was thoroughly examined for Ullmann coupling–type S-arylation reaction using different bases, solvents and 0.003 mg of the catalyst. The structural and morphological characterizations of the catalyst were carried out using XRD, TGA, BET and TEM techniques. Results: Highly efficient heterogeneous palladium catalyst has been developed by immobilizing Pd ions on Clinoptilolite, as one of the most abundant naturally occurring zeolites for Ullmann S-arylation. By using this method, we provide an efficient way to a wide variety of substituted thiolic compounds. Moreover, the catalyst is easily recovered using simple filtration and reused for 5 consecutive runs. Conclusion: In this effort, we developed a new Pd catalyst bonded on the surface of zeolite as a substrate to prepare the heterogeneous catalyst. We demonstrate that this novel catalyst offers reliable and convincing data that may offer a valuable application in further developing the science and technology of Ullmann reaction protocols and allied industries. Additionally, the catalyst was reusable and kept its high activities over a number of cycles.

- Achieving Nickel Catalyzed C-S Cross-Coupling under Mild Conditions Using Metal-Ligand Cooperativity

A simple and efficient approach of C-S cross-coupling of a wide variety of (hetero)aryl thiols and (hetero)aryl halides under mild conditions, mostly at room temperature, catalyzed by well-defined singlet diradical Ni(II) catalysts bearing redox noninnocent ligands is reported. Taking advantage of ligand centered redox events, the high-energetic Ni(0)/Ni(II) or Ni(I)/Ni(III) redox steps were avoided in the catalytic cycle. The cooperative participation of both nickel and the coordinated ligands during oxidative addition/reductive elimination steps allowed us to perform the catalytic reactions under mild conditions.

- An efficient protocol for the synthesis of thioethers via iron-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction and its mechanistic investigation
-
One of the most straightforward methods for the synthesis of diaryl sulfides is the transition metal catalyzed C–S coupling reaction. Herein we report a study on the iron-catalyzed protocol for cross-coupling reaction of aryl halides with thiols. Structurally diverse diaryl sulfides were prepared efficiently by using a catalyst system involving cheap and environment-friendly FeCl3 and non-toxic universal ligand L-proline. The reaction mechanism for the iron-catalyzed C–S coupling reaction was investigated by means of density functional theory (DFT) methods on a model system. The calculations were performed using hybrid PBE1PBE functional in conjugation with the LANL-2DZ basis set. The key step involved in the mechanism is the formation of a reactant complex in which both reactants are electrostatically bound to Fe(III) proline complex catalyst. The elimination of HI occurs with a much lower TS energy (20.0 kcal/mol) than the uncatalyzed reaction (44.7 kcal/mol).

- CoII immobilized on an aminated magnetic metal-organic framework catalyzed C-N and C-S bond forming reactions: A journey for the mild and efficient synthesis of arylamines and arylsulfides
-
In this work, we report a simple and versatile method for the modification of a metal-organic framework (NH2-MIL53(Al)) in a step-wise manner. To characterize the synthesized nanostructured catalyst, a variety of spectroscopic and microscopic techniques including FT-IR, XRD, BET, TEM, FE-SEM, EDX, EDX-mapping, TGA, XPS, VSM, ICP-OES and CHN have been employed. Fe3O4@AMCA-MIL53(Al)-NH2-CoII NPs, which benefit from small nanocrystalline size (10-30 nm, according to the XRD and TEM data) in combination with the coexistence of magnetic nanoparticles, a metal-organic framework, and cobalt species, were found to be an excellent environment catalyst to promote the C-N and C-S cross coupling reactions. A wide range of functional substrates including electron-withdrawing and electron-donating aryl halides underwent the coupling reaction with aromatic/heteroaromatic/benzylic and aliphatic amines and sulfides. The results demonstrated that the yields of the target products were good to excellent and the catalyst can be recycled for at least seven recycling runs without a discernible decrease in its catalytic activity. Furthermore, the heterogeneity studies (such as hot filtration and poisoning tests) efficiently confirmed that the as-synthesized nanostructured catalyst is heterogeneous and completely stable under the reaction conditions. We hope that our study inspires more interest in designing novel catalysts based on using low-cost metal ions (such as cobalt) in the field of cross coupling reactions.

- A semiconducting supramolecular Co(ii)-metallohydrogel: an efficient catalyst for single-pot aryl-S bond formation at room temperature
-
A novel mechanically stable supramolecular Co(ii)-metallohydrogel has been synthesized. Cobalt(ii) nitrate hexahydrate and monoethanolamine, as a low molecular weight organic gelator, are used to get the gel. The mechanical stability of the supramolecular hydrogel was analyzed. The morphology of the supramolecular metallohydrogel was scrutinized. The semiconducting features of the metallohydrogel were studied. The conducting properties of the Co(ii)-metallohydrogel establish a Schottky barrier diode type nature. The catalytic nature of the Co(ii)-metallohydrogel based room temperature single pot aryl-S coupling reaction was explored. Most interestingly, the Co(ii)-metallohydrogel based catalytic aryl-S coupling reaction does not require any column-chromatographic purification protocol to get pure aryl-thioethers. Thus, through this work a semiconducting Schottky barrier diode application and catalytic role in the room temperature single pot aryl-S coupling reaction of a supramolecular Co(ii)-metallohydrogel have been explored.

- NiFe2O4 as a magnetically recoverable nanocatalyst for odourless C–S bond formation via the cleavage of C–O bond in the presence of S8 under mild and green conditions
-
We present green methodologies for one-pot and odourless syntheses of unsymmetric and symmetric diaryl sulfides via C─O bond activation using NiFe2O4 magnetic nanoparticles as a reusable heterogeneous nanocatalyst. The synthesis of unsymmetric sulfides is performed using the cross-coupling reaction of phenolic esters such as acetates, triflates and tosylates with arylboronic acid/S8 or triphenyltin chloride/S8 as thiolating agents in the presence of base and NiFe2O4 magnetic nanoparticles as a catalyst in poly(ethylene glycol) as solvent at 60–85°C. Also, the synthesis of symmetric diaryl sulfides from phenolic compounds using S8 as the sulfur source and NiFe2O4 as catalyst in dimethylformamide at 120°C is described. Using these protocols, the syntheses of various unsymmetric and symmetric sulfides become easier than using the available protocols due to the use of a magnetically reusable bimetallic nanocatalyst and avoiding the use of thiols and aryl halides.

In the solid state structure, the tetranuclear bismuth(III) cluster is sandwiched by two diselenide cations through hydrogen bonding interactions. Besides, this ion pair has been efficaciously employed as catalyst in C-S cross-coupling reactions under optimized reaction condition. This ion pair depicted a wide range of substrate scope with different thiols and aryl halides.

- Decarbonylative thioetherification by nickel catalysis using air- and moisture-stable nickel precatalysts
-
A general, highly selective method for decarbonylative thioetherification of aryl thioesters by C-S cleavage is reported. These reactions are promoted by a commercially-available, user-friendly, inexpensive, air- and moisture-stable nickel precatalyst. The process occurs with broad functional group tolerance, including free anilines, cyanides, ketones, halides and aryl esters, to efficiently generate thioethers using ubiquitous carboxylic acids as ultimate cross-coupling precursors (cf. conventional aryl halides or pseudohalides). Selectivity studies and site-selective orthogonal cross-coupling/thioetherification are described. This thioester activation/coupling has been highlighted in the expedient synthesis of biorelevant drug analogue. In light of the synthetic utility of thioethers and Ni(ii) precatalysts, we anticipate that this user-friendly method will be of broad interest.

- Merging Photoredox and Organometallic Catalysts in a Metal–Organic Framework Significantly Boosts Photocatalytic Activities
-
Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have been extensively used for single-site catalysis and light harvesting, but their application in multicomponent photocatalysis is unexplored. We report here the successful incorporation of an IrIII photoredox catalyst and a NiII cross-coupling catalyst into a stable Zr12 MOF, Zr12-Ir-Ni, to efficiently catalyze C?S bond formation between various aryl iodides and thiols. The proximity of the IrIII and NiII catalytic components to each other (ca. 0.6 nm) in Zr12-Ir-Ni greatly facilitates electron and thiol radical transfers from Ir to Ni centers to reach a turnover number of 38 500, an order of magnitude higher than that of its homogeneous counterpart. This work highlights the opportunity in merging photoredox and organometallic catalysts in MOFs to effect challenging organic transformations.

NiFe2O4 magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) were synthesized, characterized and applied as an air-stable, inexpensive and magnetically separable nanocatalyst for the synthesis of structurally diverse sulfides. Efficient methodologies were developed for the synthesis of unsymmetric diaryl sulfides via odourless and one-pot reactions of triphenyltin chloride/S8 or arylboronic acid/S8 as thiolating agents with aryl halides or nitroarenes as starting materials in the presence of base (K2CO3 or NaOH) and NiFe2O4 MNPs as a catalyst in water or poly (ethylene glycol) as solvent at 80–110?°C. Free from ligand and the unpleasant smell of thiols and with the use of magnetically reusable nanocatalyst, green solvents and commercially available and cheap sulfur source and starting materials, these methods are more eco-friendly and practical than available protocols for the synthesis of sulfides.

- Engaging sulfinate salts via Ni/photoredox dual catalysis enables facile Csp2-SO2R coupling
-
This report details the development and implementation of a strategy to construct aryl- and heteroaryl sulfones via Ni/photoredox dual catalysis. Using aryl sulfinate salts, the C-S bond can be forged at room temperature under base-free conditions. An array of aryl- and heteroaryl halides are compatible with this approach. The broad tolerance and mild nature of the described reaction could potentially be employed to prepare sulfones with biological relevance (e.g., in bioconjugation, drug substance synthesis, etc.) as demonstrated in the synthesis of drug-like compounds or their precursors. When paired with existing Ni/photoredox chemistry for Csp3-Csp2 cross-coupling, an array of diverse sulfone scaffolds can be readily assembled from bifunctional electrophiles. A mechanistic manifold consistent with experimental and computational data is presented.

Copper(i) N-heterocyclic carbene has a good activity towards aryl halides and was used as a model complex to study the catalytic cycle of Cu(i) to catalyze the cross C-S coupling reaction because the N-heterocyclic carbene has a strong electron donating property, and ligand dissociation can be avoided. Free radical scavenger cumene does not retard the yield of the reaction indicating that the catalytic reaction goes through a non free radical path. Switching the solvent from toluene to DMF lowered the yield of the reaction. DFT calculation shows that the activation of aryl halide is the rate determining step, and the activation energy is higher for the reaction in DMF than in toluene. A plausible catalytic cycle is proposed with the support of DFT calculation.

- Room-Temperature Arylation of Thiols: Breakthrough with Aryl Chlorides
-
The formation of aryl C?S bonds is an important chemical transformation because aryl sulfides are valuable building blocks for the synthesis of biologically and pharmaceutically active molecules and organic materials. Aryl sulfides have traditionally been synthesized through the transition-metal-catalyzed cross-coupling of aryl halides with thiols. However, the aryl halides used are usually bromides and iodides; readily available, low-cost aryl chlorides often not reactive enough. Furthermore, the deactivation of transition-metal catalysts by thiols has forced chemists to use high catalyst loadings, specially designed ligands, high temperatures, and/or strong bases, thus leading to high costs and the incompatibility of some functional groups. Herein, we describe a simple and efficient visible-light photoredox arylation of thiols with aryl halides at room temperature. More importantly, various aryl chlorides are also effective arylation reagents under the present conditions.

- Formation of C-C, C-S and C-N bonds catalysed by supported copper nanoparticles
-
Transition-metal catalysed cross-coupling reactions are still dominated by palladium chemistry. Within the recent past, copper has gained ground against palladium by virtue of its cheaper price and equivalent function in certain reactions. Four catalysts consisting of copper nanoparticles on zeolite, titania, montmorillonite and activated carbon have been tested in three palladium- and ligand-free cross-coupling reactions to form carbon-carbon, carbon-sulfur and carbon-nitrogen bonds. CuNPs/zeolite has been found to be the best one in the Sonogashira reaction of aryl iodides and arylacetylenes, as well as in the coupling of aryl halides with aryl and alkyl thiols, being reusable in both cases. However, the arylation of nitrogen-containing heterocycles (imidazole, pyrazole, benzimidazole and indole) has been better accomplished with CuNPs/titania, albeit CuNPs/activated carbon showed better recycling properties. The catalytic activity of the nanostructured catalysts has been compared with that of twelve commercial copper catalysts, with the former outperforming the latter in the three types of reactions studied.

- Strongly Reducing, Visible-Light Organic Photoredox Catalysts as Sustainable Alternatives to Precious Metals
-
Photoredox catalysis is a versatile approach for the construction of challenging covalent bonds under mild reaction conditions, commonly using photoredox catalysts (PCs) derived from precious metals. As such, there is need to develop organic analogues as sustainable replacements. Although several organic PCs have been introduced, there remains a lack of strongly reducing, visible-light organic PCs. Herein, we establish the critical photophysical and electrochemical characteristics of both a dihydrophenazine and a phenoxazine system that enables their success as strongly reducing, visible-light PCs for trifluoromethylation reactions and dual photoredox/nickel-catalyzed C?N and C?S cross-coupling reactions, both of which have been historically exclusive to precious metal PCs.

- CuI/Oxalic Diamide-Catalyzed Cross-Coupling of Thiols with Aryl Bromides and Chlorides
-
We report a general copper-catalyzed cross-coupling of thiols with aryl halides by using N-aryl-N′-alkyl oxalic diamide (L3) or N,N′-dialkyl oxalic diamide (L5) as the ligand. Both aryl and alkyl thiols can be coupled with unactivated aryl bromides and chlorides to give the desired products in good yields. Furthermore, this system features a broad substrate scope and good tolerance of functional groups. Importantly, the oxalic diamides are stable and can be prepared easily from commercially available and cheap starting materials.

- SINGLE-STEP SYNTHESIS METHOD OF ARYL THIOL AND APPLICATION THEREOF
-
The present invention relates to a single-step synthesis method of aryl thiol, and more specifically, to a method of synthesizing aryl thiol in a single-step by making aryl halide react with alkane dithiol in the presence of a transition metal catalyst. According to the present invention, a single-step synthesis method using the transition metal catalyst, the synthesis method which is capable of synthesizing aryl thiol from aryl halide at a high yield, can be provided. Various aryl halides may be applied to the synthesis method. Further, the synthesis method has advantages that an easily usable reagent may be used, operations are simple, and reactions can be performed under mild conditions. In addition, the synthesized aryl thiol may be used in the synthesis of advanced molecules such as diaryl sulfides and benzothiophenes.COPYRIGHT KIPO 2017

- Copper-Catalyzed C-S Bond Formation via the Cleavage of C-O Bonds in the Presence of S8 as the Sulfur Source
-
Useful and applicable methods for one-pot and odorless synthesis of unsymmetrical and symmetrical diaryl sulfides via C-O bond activation are presented. First, a new efficient procedure for the synthesis of unsymmetrical sulfides using the cross-coupling reaction of phenolic esters such as acetates, tosylates, and triflates and with arylboronic acid or triphenyltin chloride as the coupling partners is reported. Depending on the reaction, S 8 /KF or S 8 /NaO t -Bu system is found to be an effective source of sulfur in the presence of copper salts and in poly(ethylene glycol) as a green solvent. Then, the synthesis of symmetrical diaryl sulfides from phenolic compounds by using S 8 as the sulfur source and NaO t -Bu in anhydrous DMF at 120 °C under N 2 is described. By these protocols, the synthesis of a variety of unsymmetrical and symmetrical sulfides become easier than the available protocols in which thiols and aryl halides are directly used for the preparation of the sulfides.

- Calix[8]arene nanoreactor for Cu(i)-catalysed C-S coupling
-
The catalytic activity of Cu(i) confined within a phenanthroline-containing calix[8]arene derivative was tested in C-S cross-coupling reactions. The substrate selectivity, solvent dependence, and catalyst loading differ significantly from those reported for bimetallic molecular systems. The putative monomeric complex represents the first calix[8]arene functionalised for endo-oriented metal chelation used as a nanoreactor.

- Design and Synthesis of a Focused Library of Diamino Triazines as Potential Mycobacterium tuberculosis DHFR Inhibitors
-
We report design of a series of 2,4-diamino triazines as Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) dihydrofolate reductase inhibitors. The synthesized compounds were evaluated against Mtb (H37Rv and Dormant stage H37Ra), their cytotoxicity was assessed (HepG2 and A549 cell lines), and selectivity toward Mtb was evaluated by testing against other bacterial strains. Some derivatives showed promising activity along with low cytotoxicity. The most potent compound in the whole cell assay (MIC 0.325 μM against H37Rv) showed selectivity in the enzyme assay and exhibited synergy with second line anti-TB agent p-amino salicylic acid. This study therefore provides promising molecules for further development as antituberculosis DHFR inhibitors.

- Identification of nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT) inhibitors with no evidence of CYP3A4 time-dependent inhibition and improved aqueous solubility
-
Herein we report the optimization efforts to ameliorate the potent CYP3A4 time-dependent inhibition (TDI) and low aqueous solubility exhibited by a previously identified lead compound from our NAMPT inhibitor program (1, GNE-617). Metabolite identification studies pinpointed the imidazopyridine moiety present in 1 as the likely source of the TDI signal, and replacement with other bicyclic systems was found to reduce or eliminate the TDI finding. A strategy of reducing the number of aromatic rings and/or lowering c Log D7.4 was then employed to significantly improve aqueous solubility. These efforts culminated in the discovery of 42, a compound with no evidence of TDI, improved aqueous solubility, and robust efficacy in tumor xenograft studies.

A mild, metal-free synthesis of aryl sulfides has been disclosed. Aryl diazonium ion was generated by the in situ nitrosation of aniline, and it was reduced by ascorbic acid (vitamin C) to form aryl radical, which underwent a thiolation with disulfide to yield aryl sulfide. The reaction proceeded smoothly without heating or irradiation. This strategy was also expanded to the synthesis of aryl selenides.
