- Nickel Boride Catalyzed Reductions of Nitro Compounds and Azides: Nanocellulose-Supported Catalysts in Tandem Reactions
-
Nickel boride catalyst prepared in situ from NiCl2 and sodium borohydride allowed, in the presence of an aqueous solution of TEMPO-oxidized nanocellulose (0.01 wt%), the reduction of a wide range of nitroarenes and aliphatic nitro compounds. Here we describe how the modified nanocellulose has a stabilizing effect on the catalyst that enables low loading of the nickel salt pre-catalyst. Ni-B prepared in situ from a methanolic solution was also used to develop a greener and facile reduction of organic azides, offering a substantially lowered catalyst loading with respect to reported methods in the literature. Both aromatic and aliphatic azides were reduced, and the protocol is compatible with a one-pot Boc-protection of the obtained amine yielding the corresponding carbamates. Finally, bacterial crystalline nanocellulose was chosen as a support for the Ni-B catalyst to allow an easy recovery step of the catalyst and its recyclability for new reduction cycles.

- Anilide Formation from Thioacids and Perfluoroaryl Azides
-
A metal-free method for fast and clean anilide formation from perfluoroaryl azide and thioacid is presented. The reaction proved highly efficient, displaying fast kinetics, high yield, and good chemoselectivity. The transformation was compatible with various solvents and tolerant to a wide variety of functional groups, and it showed high performance in polar protic/aprotic media, including aqueous buffer systems. (Chemical Equation Presented).

- Photocatalytic hydrodefluorination: Facile access to partially fluorinated aromatics
-
Polyfluorinated aromatics are essential to materials science as well as the pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries and yet are often difficult to access. This Communication describes a photocatalytic hydrodefluorination approach which begins with easily accessible perfluoroarenes and selectively reduces the C-F bonds. The method allows facile access to a number of partially fluorinated arenes and takes place with unprecedented catalytic activity using a safe and inexpensive amine as the reductant.

- Synthesis of bitriazolyl nucleosides and unexpectedly different reactivity of azidotriazole nucleoside isomers in the Huisgen reaction
-
Novel bitriazolyl nucleosides were synthesized via the Huisgen reaction, starting with 3-azidotriazole nucleoside (1). Surprisingly, its isomer, 5-azidotriazole nucleoside (1′) did not yield the corresponding Huisgen reaction products efficiently because it was rapidly reduced to amine in the presence of Cu(ii)-ascorbate. The significant differences between the reactivity of these two isomers in Cu(ii)-ascorbate mediated reactions are mainly due to differences in their electronic properties and steric congestion as a result of different relative positions of the azido and the ribosyl moieties.

- Descriptive Photochemistry of Polyfluorinated Azide Derivatives of Methyl Benzoate
-
The photochemistry of several polyfluorinated azide derivatives of methyl benzoate have been studied in a variety of solvents.We have photolyzed methyl 3-azido-6-fluorobenzoate, methyl 3-azido-4-fluorobenzoate, methyl 4-azido-2-fluorobenzoate, methyl 3-azido-2,4-difluorobenzoate, methyl 3-azido-2,6-difluorobenzoate, methyl 3-azido-2,4,6-trifluorobenzoate, and methyl 4-azido-2,3,5,6-tetrafluorobenzoate in toluene, cyclopentane, tetramethylethylene, diethylamine, dimethyl sulfide, dimethyl disulfide, and methanol in an attempt to capture the photogenerated reactive intermediates.Adducts were not formed in cyclopentane, dimethyl disulfide, and methanol solvents.Adducts were formed, however, but in modest yields, in the other solvents.In general the yield of adducts increases with the number of fluorine substituents present, and ortho and para fluorine substituents relative to the azide group are more effective in enhancing the yield of adducts relative to meta fluorine substitution.

- New Reagents for Photoaffinity Labeling: Synthesis and Photolysis of Functionalized Perfluorophenyl Azides
-
Functionalized perfluorophenyl azides (PFPA) 2-6, 8-12, 14-19, and 21-29 were synthesized, allowing the attachment of PFPA to other molecules for application as photolabels.Two biactive molecules were modified by a PFPA as potential photoaffinity labeling reagents.Photolysis of two representative members was investigated.Photolysis of azide 4 in cyclohexane gave 57 percent of CH insertion product.When photolysis was carried out in the presence of diethylamine as a trapping reagent, it gave 65 percent of NH insertion product, and no ring expansion product was found.The nitro azide 19 showed a shoulder absorption in the longer wavelength compared to azide 4.Azide 19 gave less CH insertion and more aniline products compared to azide 4 when photolyzed in toluene, suggesting that the nitro group accelerates intersystem crossing of the singlet nitrene or the singlet excited azide.Collectively, our results demonstrate that the functionalized PFPA investigated are much better in undergoing CH insertion than their nonfluorinated analogues and suggest that they may constitute an improved series of photolabeling reagents.
