- Iron-Catalyzed C-C Single-Bond Cleavage of Alcohols
-
An iron-catalyzed deconstruction/hydrogenation reaction of alcohols through C-C bond cleavage is developed through photocatalysis, to produce ketones or aldehydes as the products. Tertiary, secondary, and primary alcohols bearing a wide range of substituents are suitable substrates. Complex natural alcohols can also perform the transformation selectively. A investigation of the mechanism reveals a procedure that involves chlorine radical improved O-H homolysis, with the assistance of 2,4,6-collidine.

- Sustainable Route Toward N-Boc Amines: AuCl3/CuI-Catalyzed N-tert-butyloxycarbonylation of Amines at Room Temperature
-
N-tert-butoxycarbonyl (N-Boc) amines are useful intermediates in synthetic/medicinal chemistry. Traditionally, they are prepared via an indirect phosgene route with poor atom economy. Herein, a step- and atom-economic synthesis of N-Boc amines from amines, t-butanol, and CO was reported at room temperature. Notably, this N-tert-butyloxycarbonylation procedure utilized ready-made substrates, commercially available AuCl3/CuI as catalysts, and O2 from air as the sole oxidant. This catalytic system provided unique selectivity for N-Boc amines in good yields. More significantly, gram-scale preparation of medicinally important N-Boc amine intermediates was successfully implement, which demonstrated a potential application prospect in industrial syntheses. Furthermore, this approach also showed good compatibility with tertiary and other useful alcohols. Investigations of the mechanisms revealed that gold catalyzed the reaction and copper acted as electron transfer mediator in the catalytic cycle.

- Catalyst-Free Decarboxylation of Carboxylic Acids and Deoxygenation of Alcohols by Electro-Induced Radical Formation
-
Electro-induced reduction of redox active esters and N-phthalimidoyl oxalates derived from naturally abundant carboxylic acids and alcohols provides a sustainable and inexpensive approach to radical formation via undivided electrochemical cells. The resulting radicals are trapped by an electron-poor olefin or hydrogen atom source to furnish the Giese reaction or reductive decarboxylation products, respectively. A broad range of carboxylic acid (1°, 2°, and 3°) and alcohol (2° and 3°) derivatives are applicable in this catalyst-free reaction, which tolerated a diverse range of functional groups. This method features simple operation, is a sustainable platform, and has broad application.

- Catalytic Hydroetherification of Unactivated Alkenes Enabled by Proton-Coupled Electron Transfer
-
We report a catalytic, light-driven method for the intramolecular hydroetherification of unactivated alkenols to furnish cyclic ether products. These reactions occur under visible-light irradiation in the presence of an IrIII-based photoredox catalyst, a Br?nsted base catalyst, and a hydrogen-atom transfer (HAT) co-catalyst. Reactive alkoxy radicals are proposed as key intermediates, generated by direct homolytic activation of alcohol O?H bonds through a proton-coupled electron-transfer mechanism. This method exhibits a broad substrate scope and high functional-group tolerance, and it accommodates a diverse range of alkene substitution patterns. Results demonstrating the extension of this catalytic system to carboetherification reactions are also presented.

- Generalized Chemoselective Transfer Hydrogenation/Hydrodeuteration
-
A generalized, simple and efficient transfer hydrogenation of unsaturated bonds has been developed using HBPin and various proton reagents as hydrogen sources. The substrates, including alkenes, alkynes, aromatic heterocycles, aldehydes, ketones, imines, azo, nitro, epoxy and nitrile compounds, are all applied to this catalytic system. Various groups, which cannot survive under the Pd/C/H2 combination, are tolerated. The activity of the reactants was studied and the trends are as follows: styrene'diphenylmethanimine'benzaldehyde'azobenzene'nitrobenzene'quinoline'acetophenone'benzonitrile. Substrates bearing two or more different unsaturated bonds were also investigated and transfer hydrogenation occurred with excellent chemoselectivity. Nano-palladium catalyst in situ generated from Pd(OAc)2 and HBPin extremely improved the TH efficiency. Furthermore, chemoselective anti-Markovnikov hydrodeuteration of terminal aromatic olefins was achieved using D2O and HBPin via in situ HD generation and discrimination. (Figure presented.).

- Dehydroxymethylation of alcohols enabled by cerium photocatalysis
-
Dehydroxymethylation, the direct conversion of alcohol feedstocks as alkyl synthons containing one less carbon atom, is an unconventional and underexplored strategy to exploit the ubiquity and robustness of alcohol materials. Under mild and redox-neutral reaction conditions, utilizing inexpensive cerium catalyst, the photocatalytic dehydroxymethylation platform has been furnished. Enabled by ligand-to-metal charge transfer catalysis, an alcohol functionality has been reliably transferred into nucleophilic radicals with the loss of one molecule of formaldehyde. Intriguingly, we found that the dehydroxymethylation process can be significantly promoted by the cerium catalyst, and the stabilization effect of the fragmented radicals also plays a significant role. This operationally simple protocol has enabled the direct utilization of primary alcohols as unconventional alkyl nucleophiles for radical-mediated 1,4-conjugate additions with Michael acceptors. A broad range of alcohols, from simple ethanol to complex nucleosides and steroids, have been successfully applied to this fragment coupling transformation. Furthermore, the modularity of this catalytic system has been demonstrated in diversified radical-mediated transformations including hydrogenation, amination, alkenylation, and oxidation.

- Catalytic protodeboronation of pinacol boronic esters: Formal anti-Markovnikov hydromethylation of alkenes
-
Pinacol boronic esters are highly valuable building blocks in organic synthesis. In contrast to the many protocols available on the functionalizing deboronation of alkyl boronic esters, protodeboronation is not well developed. Herein we report catalytic protodeboronation of 1°, 2° and 3° alkyl boronic esters utilizing a radical approach. Paired with a Matteson-CH2-homologation, our protocol allows for formal anti-Markovnikov alkene hydromethylation, a valuable but unknown transformation. The hydromethylation sequence was applied to methoxy protected (-)-Δ8-THC and cholesterol. The protodeboronation was further used in the formal total synthesis of δ-(R)-coniceine and indolizidine 209B.

- Dual Benzophenone/Copper-Photocatalyzed Giese-Type Alkylation of C(sp3)?H Bonds
-
Photocatalyzed Giese-type alkylations of C(sp3)?H bonds are very attractive reactions in the context of atom-economy in C?C bond formation. The main limitation of such reactions is that when using highly polymerizable olefin acceptors, such as unsubstituted acrylates, acrylonitrile, or methyl vinyl ketone, radical polymerization often becomes the dominant or exclusive reaction pathway. Herein, we report that the polymerization of such olefins is strongly limited or suppressed when combining the photocatalytic activity of benzophenone (BP) with a catalytic amount of Cu(OAc)2. Under mild and operationally simple conditions, the Giese adducts resulting from the C(sp3)?H functionalization of amines, alcohols, ethers, and cycloalkanes could be synthesized. Preliminary mechanistic studies have revealed that the reaction does not proceed through a radical chain, but through a dual BP/Cu photocatalytic process, in which both CuII and low-valent CuI/0 species, generated in situ by reduction by the BP ketyl radical, may react with α-keto or α-cyano intermediate radicals, thus preventing polymerization.

In this study, a new C(sp3)-H monofluoroalkenylation reaction involving cooperative visible-light photoredox catalysis and hydrogen-atom-transfer catalysis to afford products generated by selective hydrogen abstraction and radical-radical cross-coupling was described. This mild, efficient reaction shows high regioselectivity for the α-carbon atoms of amines, ethers, and thioethers and thus allows the preparation of monofluoroalkenes bearing various substituents. The reaction was applied to two bioactive molecules, indicating its utility for late-stage monofluoroalkenylation of compounds with inert C(sp3)-H bonds.

- Derisking the Cu-Mediated 18F-Fluorination of Heterocyclic Positron Emission Tomography Radioligands
-
Molecules labeled with fluorine-18 (18F) are used in positron emission tomography to visualize, characterize and measure biological processes in the body. Despite recent advances in the incorporation of 18F onto arenes, the development of general and efficient approaches to label radioligands necessary for drug discovery programs remains a significant task. This full account describes a derisking approach toward the radiosynthesis of heterocyclic positron emission tomography (PET) radioligands using the copper-mediated 18F-fluorination of aryl boron reagents with 18F-fluoride as a model reaction. This approach is based on a study examining how the presence of heterocycles commonly used in drug development affects the efficiency of 18F-fluorination for a representative aryl boron reagent, and on the labeling of more than 50 (hetero)aryl boronic esters. This set of data allows for the application of this derisking strategy to the successful radiosynthesis of seven structurally complex pharmaceutically relevant heterocycle-containing molecules.

- Tetrahydroxydiboron-Mediated Palladium-Catalyzed Transfer Hydrogenation and Deuteriation of Alkenes and Alkynes Using Water as the Stoichiometric H or D Atom Donor
-
There are few examples of catalytic transfer hydrogenations of simple alkenes and alkynes that use water as a stoichiometric H or D atom donor. We have found that diboron reagents efficiently mediate the transfer of H or D atoms from water directly onto unsaturated C-C bonds using a palladium catalyst. This reaction is conducted on a broad variety of alkenes and alkynes at ambient temperature, and boric acid is the sole byproduct. Mechanistic experiments suggest that this reaction is made possible by a hydrogen atom transfer from water that generates a Pd-hydride intermediate. Importantly, complete deuterium incorporation from stoichiometric D2O has also been achieved.

Bioassay results indicated that all four of the newly designed analogues showed good to excellent antiviral activities, among which analogue 16a dispalyed comparable activity with that of ningnanmycin, perhaps one of the most successful commercial antiviral agents, thus emerging as a potential inhibitor of plant virus and serving as a new lead for further optimization. Further structure-activity relationships are also discussed, demonstrating for the first time that the same changes of the original skeletons of phenanthroindolizidine and phenanthroquinolizidine exihibted totally different antiviral activities results, providing some original and useful information about the preferential conformation for maintaining high activities.

A protocol for the enantioselective [3+2] cycloaddition of trimethylenemethane (TMM) with electron-deficient olefins has been developed. The synthesis of novel phosphoramidite ligands was critical in this effort, and the preparation and reactivity of these ligands is detailed. The evolution of the ligand design, commencing with acyclic amine-derived phosphoramidites and leading to cyclic pyrrolidine and azetidine structures, is discussed. The conditions developed to effect an asymmetric TMM reaction using 2-trimethylsilylmethyl allyl acetate were shown to be tolerant of a wide variety of alkene acceptors, providing the desired methylenecyclopentanes with high levels of enantioselectivity. The donor scope was also explored, and substituted systems were tolerated, including one bearing a nitrile moiety. These donors were reactive with unsaturated acylpyrroles, giving the product cyclopentane rings bearing three stereocenters in high enantioselectivity and complete diastereoselectivity.

- Asymmetric deprotonation using s -BuLi or i -PrLi and chiral diamines in THF: The diamine matters
-
The solution structures of [6Li]-i-PrLi complexed to (-)-sparteine and the (+)-sparteine surrogate in Et2O-d10 and THF-d8 at -80 °C have been determined using 6Li and 13C NMR spectroscopy. In Et2O, i-PrLi/(-)-sparteine is a solvent-complexed heterodimer, whereas i-PrLi/(+)-sparteine surrogate is a head-to-tail homodimer. In THF, there was no complexation of (-)-sparteine to i-PrLi until ≥3.0 equiv (-)-sparteine and with 6.0 equiv (-)-sparteine, a monomer was characterized. In contrast, the (+)-sparteine surrogate readily complexed to i-PrLi in THF, and with 1.0 equiv (+)-sparteine surrogate, complete formation of a monomer was observed. The NMR spectroscopic study suggested that it should be possible to carry out highly enantioselective asymmetric deprotonation reactions using i-PrLi or s-BuLi/(+)-sparteine surrogate in THF. Hence, three different asymmetric deprotonation reactions (lithiation-trapping of N-Boc pyrrolidine, an O-alkyl carbamate, and a phosphine borane) were investigated; it was shown that reactions with (-)-sparteine in THF proceeded with low enantioselectivity, whereas the corresponding reactions with the (+)-sparteine surrogate occurred with high enantioselectivity. These are the first examples of highly enantioselective asymmetric deprotonation reactions using organolithium/diamine complexes in THF.

- Diamine-free lithiation-trapping of N-Boc heterocycles using s-BuLi in THF
-
A diamine-free protocol for the s-BuLi-mediated lithiation-trapping of N-Boc heterocycles has been developed. In the optimized procedure, lithiation is accomplished using s-BuLi in THF at -30 °C for only 5 or 10 min. Subsequent electrophilic trapping or transmetalation-Negishi coupling delivered a range of functionalized pyrrolidines, imidazolidines, and piperazines in 43-83% yield.

- Efficient, solventless N-Boc protection of amines carried out at room temperature using sulfamic acid as recyclable catalyst
-
A simple, rapid, and efficient protocol for the chemoselective N-Boc protection of amines using sulfamic acid as catalyst is described. N-Boc protection of various structurally diverse aliphatic, aromatic, alicyclic, and heterocyclic amines (1°, 2°, 3°) was carried out with (Boc)2O using sulfamic acid as catalyst (5 mol %) at room temperature under solventless conditions. The advantages of this method are simplicity, shorter reaction times (1-15 min), a cost-effective catalyst, and excellent isolated yields (90-100%); it is also environmentally benign. Moreover, the combined use of ultrasound and sulfamic acid achieves a synergic effect that is especially marked in the N-Boc protection of deactivated (sterically hindered and electron-deficient) amines. The catalyst possesses distinct advantages: ease of handling, cleaner reactions, high activity, and excellent chemoselectivity.

- Catalyst-free chemoselective N-tert-butyloxycarbonylation of amines in water
-
Catalyst-free N-tert-butyloxycarbonylation of amines in water is reported. The N-t-Boc derivatives were formed chemoselectively without any isocyanate, urea, N,N-di-t-Boc, and O/S-t-Boc as side products. Chiral amines, esters of α-amino acids, and β-amino alcohol afforded optically pure N-t-Boc derivatives. Amino alcohol and 2-aminophenol afforded the N-t-Boc derivative without oxazolidinone formation. Selectivity was observed during competition of aromatic amine vs aliphatic amine, amine vs amino acid ester, amine vs amino alcohol, and primary amine vs secondary amine.

- Stereoselective construction of X-azabicyclo[m.2.1]alkanes by [3+2]-cycloaddition of non-stabilized cyclic azomethine ylides: Synthesis of enantiopure constrained amino acids and formal total synthesis of optically active epibatidine
-
A new and general strategy for the stereoselective construction of X-azabicyclo[m.2.1]alkanes has been developed by the [3+2]-cycloaddition of cyclic azomethine ylides with suitable achiral dipolarophiles. The cyclic azomethine ylides, where the whole of the ylide conjugation is in the ring, have been generated by the sequential double desilylation of the N-alkyl-α,α′-bis(trimethylsilyl) cyclic amines utilizing Ag(I)F as one electron oxidant. The structural rigidity of cyclic azomethine ylides has allowed preferential facial discrimination by the dipolarophile resulting into very good exolendo selectivity. The exolendo selectivity associated with these cycloadditions has been further exploited to access optically pure X-azabicyclo[m.2.1]alkanes by carrying out the cycloadditions with the Oppolzer's acryloyl dipolarophile. Application of this methodology is demonstrated by the construction of few constrained amino acids related to azabicyclic structural framework and the formal total synthesis of optically active epibatidine.
