Project description:C - Si Bond cleavage is one of the key elemental steps for a wide variety of silicon-based transformations. However, the cleavage of unstrained Si-C(sp3) bonds catalyzed by transition metal are still in their infancy. They generally involve the insertion of a M - C(sp2) species into the C - Si bond and consequent intramolecular C(sp2)‒Si coupling to exclusively produce siloles. Here we report the Pd-catalyzed sila-spirocyclization, in which the Si-C(sp3) bond is activated by the insertion of a M - C(sp3) species and followed by the formation of a new C(sp3)‒Si bond, allowing the construction of diverse spirosilacycles. This reactivity mode, which is strongly supported by DFT calculations may open an avenue for the Si-C(sp3) bond cleavage and silacycle synthesis.

Project description:Cleavage of inert C-N bonds in unstrained azacycles such as pyrrolidine remains a formidable challenge in synthetic chemistry. To address this, we introduce an effective strategy for the reductive cleavage of the C-N bond in N-benzoyl pyrrolidine, leveraging a combination of Lewis acid and photoredox catalysis. This method involves single-electron transfer to the amide, followed by site-selective cleavage at the C2-N bond. Cyclic voltammetry and NMR studies demonstrated that the Lewis acid is crucial for promoting the single-electron transfer from the photoredox catalyst to the amide carbonyl group. This protocol is widely applicable to various pyrrolidine-containing molecules and enables inert C-N bond cleavage including C-C bond formation via intermolecular radical addition. Furthermore, the current protocol successfully converts pyrrolidines to aziridines, γ-lactones, and tetrahydrofurans, showcasing its potential of the inert C-N bond cleavage for expanding synthetic strategies.

Project description:The rhodium-catalyzed formation of all-carbon spirocenters involves a decarbonylative coupling of trisubstituted cyclic olefins and benzocyclobutenones through CC activation. The metal-ligand combination [{Rh(CO)2 Cl}2 ]/P(C6 F5 )3 catalyzed this transformation most efficiently. A range of diverse spirocycles were synthesized in good to excellent yields and many sensitive functional groups were tolerated. A mechanistic study supports a hydrogen-transfer process that occurs through a β-H elimination/decarbonylation pathway.

Project description:The cleavage and formation of carbon-carbon bonds have emerged as powerful tools for structural modifications in organic synthesis. Although transition-metal-catalyzed decarbonylation of unstrained diaryl ketones provides a viable protocol to construct biaryl structures, the use of expensive catalyst and high temperature (>140 oC) have greatly limited their universal applicability. Moreover, the direct activation of two inert C - C bonds in diaryl ketones without the assistance of metal catalyst has been a great challenge due to the inherent stability of C - C bonds (nonpolar, thermo-dynamically stable, and kinetically inert). Here we report an efficient light-driven transition-metal-free strategy for decarbonylation of unstrained diaryl ketones to construct biaryl compounds through dual inert C - C bonds cleavage. This reaction featured mild reaction conditions, easy-to-handle reactants and reagents, and excellent functional groups tolerance. The mechanistic investigation and DFT calculation suggest that this strategy proceeds through the formation of dioxy radical intermediate via a single-electron-transfer (SET) process between photo-excited diaryl ketone and DBU mediated by DMSO, followed by removal of CO2 to construct biaryl compounds.

Project description:β-Carbon eliminations of aryl, allylic, and propargylic alkoxides of Rh(i), Pd(ii), and Cu(i) are key elementary reactions in the proposed mechanisms of homogeneously catalysed cross-coupling, group transfer, and annulation. Besides the handful of studies with isolable Rh(i)-alkoxides, β-carbon eliminations of Pd(ii)- and Cu(i)-alkoxides are less definitive. Herein, we provide a comprehensive synthetic, structural, and mechanistic study on the β-alkynyl eliminations of isolable secondary and tertiary propargylic alkoxide Cu(i) complexes, LCuOC(H)(Ph)C[triple bond, length as m-dash]CPh and LCuOC(ArF)2C[triple bond, length as m-dash]CPh (L = N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC), dppf, S-BINAP), to produce monomeric (NHC)CuC[triple bond, length as m-dash]CPh, dimeric [(diphosphine)CuC[triple bond, length as m-dash]CPh]2, and the corresponding carbonyl. Selective β-alkynyl over β-hydrogen elimination was observed for NHC- and diphosphine-supported secondary propargylic alkoxide complexes. The mechanism for the first-order reaction of β-carbon elimination of (IPr*Me)CuOC(ArF)2C[triple bond, length as m-dash]CPh is proposed to occur through an organized four-centred transition state via a Cu-alkyne π complex based on Eyring analysis of variable-temperature reaction rates by UV-vis kinetic analysis to provide ΔH ‡ = 24(1) kcal mol-1, ΔS ‡ = -8(3) e.u., and ΔG ‡ (25 °C) = 27 kcal mol-1 over a temperature range of 60-100 °C. Additional quantitative UV-vis kinetic studies conclude that the electronic and steric properties of the NHC ligands engendered a marginal effect on the elimination rate, requiring 2-3 h at 100 °C for completion, whereas complete β-alkynyl eliminations of diphosphine-supported propargylic alkoxides were observed in 1-2 h at 25 °C.

Project description:The reaction of a molybdenum(VI) oxido imido complex with the strong Lewis acid B(C6 F5 )3 gave access to the Lewis adduct [Mo{OB(C6 F5 )3 }(NtBu)L2 ] featuring reversible B-O bonding in solution. The resulting frustrated Lewis pair (FLP)-like reactivity is reflected by the compound's ability to heterolytically cleave Si-H bonds, leading to a clean formation of the novel cationic MoVI species 3 a (R=Et) and 3 b (R=Ph) of the general formula [Mo(OSiR3 )(NtBu)L2 ][HB(C6 F5 )3 ]. These compounds possess properties highly unusual for molybdenum d0 species such as an intensive, charge-transfer-based color as well as a reversible redox couple at very low potentials, both dependent on the silane used. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses of 2 and 4 b, a derivative of 3 b featuring the [FB(C6 F5 )3 ]- anion, picture the stepwise elongation of the Mo=O bond, leading to a large increase in the electrophilicity of the metal center. The reaction of 3 a and 3 b with benzaldehyde allowed for the regeneration of compound 2 by hydrosilylation of the benzaldehyde. NMR spectroscopy suggested an unusual mechanism for the transformation, involving a substrate insertion in the B-H bond of the borohydride anion.

Project description:Transition-metal- or oxidant-promoted deconstructive functionalizations of noncyclic carbon-nitrogen bonds are well established, usually only leaving one moiety functionalized toward the final product. In contrast, concomitant C- and N-functionalizations via the unstrained C(sp3)-N bond under metal- and oxidant-free conditions are very rare, which would favorably confer versatility and product diversity. Disclosed herein is the first difluorocarbene-induced deconstructive functionalizations embodying successive C(sp3)-N bond cleavage of cyclic amines and synchronous functionalization of both constituent atoms which would be preserved in the eventual molecular outputs under transition-metal-free and oxidant-free conditions. Correspondent access to deuterated formamides with ample isotopic incorporation was demonstrated by a switch to heavy water which is conceivably useful in pharmaceutical sciences. The current strategy remarkably administers a very convenient, operationally simple and novel method toward molecular diversity from readily available starting materials. Therefore, we project that these findings would be of broad interest to research endeavors encompassing fluorine chemistry, carbene chemistry, C-N bond activation, as well as medicinal chemistry.

Project description:The dual binding behavior of the metallylenes TH2 (T = Si, Ge, Sn, Pb) with some selected Lewis acids (T'H3F, T' = Si, Ge, Sn, Pb) and bases (N2, HCN, CO, and C6H6) has been investigated by using the high-level quantum chemical method. Two types (type-A and type-B) of tetrel-bonded complexes can be formed for TH2 due to their ambiphilic character. TH2 act as Lewis bases in type-A complexes, and they act as Lewis acids in type-B ones. CO exhibits two binding modes in the type-B complexes, one of which is TH2···CO and the other is TH2···OC. The TH2···OC complexes possess a weaker binding strength than the other type-B complexes. The TH2···OC complexes are referred to as the type-B2 complexes, and the other type-B complexes are referred to as the type-B1 complexes. The type-A complexes exhibit a relatively weak binding strength with Eint (interaction energy) values ranging from -7.11 to -15.55 kJ/mol, and the type-B complexes have a broad range of Eint values ranging from -9.45 to -98.44 kJ/mol. The Eint values of the type-A and type-B1 complexes go in the order SiH2 > GeH2 > SnH2 > PbH2. The AIM (atoms in molecules) analysis suggests that the tetrel bonds in type-A complexes are purely closed-shell interactions, and those in most type-B1 complexes have a partially covalent character. The EDA (Energy decomposition analysis) results indicate that the contribution values of the three energy terms go in the order electrostatic > dispersion > induction for the type-A and type-B2 complexes, and this order is electrostatic > induction > dispersion for the type-B1 complexes.
