Application of iron (III) complex containing 1,3-di-tert-butyl imidazole cations in synthesis of aryl benzyl ether compounds

The invention discloses an application of an iron (III) complex containing 1,3-di-tert-butyl imidazole cations in synthesis of aryl benzyl ether compounds, and particularly relates to a method for synthesizing corresponding aryl benzyl ether compounds by taking di-tert-butyl peroxide as an oxidizing agent and carrying out oxidative coupling reaction on phenolic compounds and toluene compounds. According to the method, the iron (III) complex is used as the catalyst for the first time, and oxidative coupling of the phenolic compound and the toluene compound is realized. The method is the first oxidative coupling reaction of phenolic compounds and benzyl C(sp3)-H bonds, and a new method is provided for synthesizing aryl benzyl ether compounds. Compared with an existing synthesis method, the method provided by the invention avoids using toxic and polluting halogenated hydrocarbon and strong base, has better atom economy, and conforms to the development concept of green synthetic chemistry.

Oxalohydrazide Ligands for Copper-Catalyzed C?O Coupling Reactions with High Turnover Numbers

Here, we report a class of ligands based on oxalohydrazide cores and N-amino pyrrole and N-amino indole units that generates long-lived copper catalysts for couplings that form the C?O bonds in biaryl ethers. These Cu-catalyzed coupling of phenols with aryl bromides occurred with turnovers up to 8000, a value which is nearly two orders of magnitude higher than those of prior couplings to form biaryl ethers and nearly an order of magnitude higher than those of any prior copper-catalyzed coupling of aryl bromides and chlorides. This ligand also led to copper systems that catalyze the coupling of aryl chlorides with phenols and the coupling of aryl bromides and iodides with primary benzylic and aliphatic alcohols. A wide variety of functional groups including nitriles, halides, ethers, ketones, amines, esters, amides, vinylarenes, alcohols and boronic acid esters were tolerated, and reactions occurred with aryl bromides in pharmaceutically related structures.

An alternative route for boron phenoxide preparation from arylboronic acid and its application for C[sbnd]O bond formation

An efficient synthetic route to benzyl phenyl ether preparation has been successfully developed via a one-pot synthetic protocol utilizing a combination of arylboronic acids, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), and benzyl halides. The whole procedure consists of two consecutive reactions, formation of boron phenoxide from arylboronic acids and its nucleophilic attack. A simple operation under mild conditions such as room-temperature ionic liquid (choline hydroxide), aerobic environment, and absence of metal- and base-catalysts has been employed. Expansion to utilize benzyl surrogates was also successfully accomplished.
