Merging Halogen-Atom Transfer (XAT) and Copper Catalysis for the Modular Suzuki-Miyaura-Type Cross-Coupling of Alkyl Iodides and Organoborons.

ABSTRACT: We report here a mechanistically distinct approach to achieve Suzuki-Miyaura-type cross-couplings between alkyl iodides and aryl organoborons. This process requires a copper catalyst but, in contrast with previous approaches based on palladium and nickel systems, does not utilizes the metal for the activation of the alkyl electrophile. Instead, this strategy exploits the halogen-atom-transfer ability of α-aminoalkyl radicals to convert secondary alkyl iodides into the corresponding alkyl radicals that then are coupled with aryl, vinyl, alkynyl, benzyl, and allyl boronate species. These novel coupling reactions feature a simple setup and conditions (1 h at room temperature) and facilitate access to privileged motifs targeted by the pharmaceutical sector.

A Halogen-Atom Transfer (XAT)-Based Approach to Indole Synthesis Using Aryl Diazonium Salts and Alkyl Iodides.

Project description:Indoles are among the most important N-heterocycles in pharmaceuticals. Here, we present an alternative to the classic Fischer indole synthesis based on the radical coupling between aryl diazoniums and alkyl iodides. This iron-mediated strategy features a double role for the aryl diazoniums that sequentially activate the alkyl iodides through halogen-atom transfer and then serve as radical acceptors. The process operates under mild conditions and enables the preparation of densely functionalized indoles.

Boryl radical-mediated halogen-atom transfer (XAT) enables the Sonogashira-like alkynylation of alkyl halides.

Project description:Alkynes are a crucial class of materials with application across the wide range of chemical disciplines. The alkynylation of alkyl halides presents an ideal strategy for assembling these materials. Current methods rely on the intrinsic electrophilic nature of alkyl halides to couple with nucleophilic acetylenic systems, but these methods faces limitations in terms of applicability and generality. Herein, we introduce a different approach to alkynylation of alkyl halides that proceeds via radical intermediates and uses alkynyl sulfones as coupling partners. This strategy exploits the ability of amine-ligated boryl radicals to activate alkyl iodides and bromides through halogen-atom transfer (XAT). The resulting radicals then undergo a cascade of α-addition and β-fragmentation with the sulfone reagent, leading to the construction of C(sp3)-C(sp) bonds. The generality of the methodology has been demonstrated by its successful application in the alkynylation of complex and high-value molecules.

Electrochemical halogen-atom transfer alkylation via α-aminoalkyl radical activation of alkyl iodides.

Project description:Alkyl halides, widely recognized as important building blocks and reagents in organic synthesis, can serve as versatile alkyl radical precursors in radical-based transformations. However, generating alkyl radicals directly from unactivated alkyl halides under mild conditions remains a challenge due to their extremely low reduction potentials. To address this issue, α-aminoalkyl radicals were employed as efficient halogen-atom transfer (XAT) reagents in the photoredox activation of unactivated alkyl halides. Here, we report an effective electrooxidation strategy for generating alkyl radicals from unactivated alkyl iodides via an electrochemical halogen-atom transfer (e-XAT) process under mild conditions. The α-aminoalkyl radicals generated by anodic oxidation are demonstrated to be efficient XAT reagents in these transformations. This facile electricity-driven strategy obviates the need for sacrificial anodes and external chemical oxidants. The method successfully applies to a wide variety of alkyl iodides, including primary, secondary, and tertiary, as well as structurally diverse olefins, exhibiting excellent functional group tolerance. Moreover, we further demonstrate the utility of this strategy by rapidly functionalizing complex molecules and biomolecules.

Transition-metal free C-N bond formation from alkyl iodides and diazonium salts via halogen-atom transfer.

Project description:Construction of C-N bond continues to be one part of the most significant goals in organic chemistry because of the universal applications of amines in pharmaceuticals, materials and agrochemicals. However, E2 elimination through classic SN2 substitution of alkyl halides lead to generation of alkenes as major side-products. Thus, formation of a challenging C(sp3)-N bond especially on tertiary carbon center remains highly desirable. Herein, we present a practical alternative to prepare primary, secondary and tertiary alkyl amines with high efficiency between alkyl iodides and easily accessible diazonium salts. This robust transformation only employs Cs2CO3 promoting halogen-atom transfer (XAT) process under transition-metal-free reaction conditions, thus providing a rapid method to assemble diverse C(sp3)-N bonds. Moreover, diazonium salts served as alkyl radical initiator and amination reagent in the reaction. Mechanism studies suggest this reaction undergo through halogen-atom transfer process to generate active alkyl radical which couples with diazonium cations to furnish final products.

1,2-Aminoxyalkylation of alkenes with alkyl iodides and TEMPONa through SET- and XAT-processes.

Project description:1,2-Aminoxyalkylation of alkenes with alkyl iodides and TEMPONa in combination with an aryldiazonium salt as an XAT mediator is reported. Various primary, secondary and tertiary alkyl iodides engage as C-radical precursors in the 1,2-aminoxyalkylation with electrophilic alkenes as radical acceptors. The product alkoxyamines are readily transformed to the corresponding alcohols or ketones upon reduction or oxidation, respectively. Mechanistic investigations reveal that aryl radicals, generated through SET-reduction of the aryl diazonium salt with TEMPONa, engage in XAT from unactivated alkyl halides to give alkyl radicals that can add to alkenes. Trapping of the adduct radicals with TEMPO provides the 1,2-aminoxyalkylation products. Transition metals are not required for these transformations that are conducted under mild conditions. Perfluoroalkyl halides directly react with TEMPONa and an aryldiazonium salt as XAT-mediator is not required for alkene 1,2-aminoxyperfluoroalkylation.

Rapid, Homogenous, B-Alkyl Suzuki-Miyaura Cross-Coupling of Boronic Esters.

Project description:A rapid, anhydrous Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling of alkylboronic esters with aryl halides is described. Parallel experimentation revealed that the combination of AntPhos, an oxaphosphole ligand, neopentyldiol alkylboronic esters, and potassium trimethylsilanolate (TMSOK) enables successful cross-coupling. In general, reactions proceed in under 1 h with good yields and high linear/branched (l/b) selectivities. Crucially, two literature examples which previously took >20 h to reach completion were accomplished in a fraction of the time with the method described herein. Mechanistic studies revealed that the reaction proceeds through a stereoretentive pathway and identified the boronic ester skeleton as a predominant pathway for deleterious protodehalogenation.

Photoredox Polyfluoroarylation of Alkyl Halides via Halogen Atom Transfer.

Project description:Polyfluoroarene moieties are of interest in medicinal chemistry, agrochemicals, and material sciences. Herein, we present the first polyfluoroarylation of unactivated alkyl halides via a halogen atom transfer process. This method converts primary, secondary, and tertiary alkyl halides into the respective polyfluoroaryl compounds in good yields in the presence of amide, carbamate, ester, aromatic, and sulfonamide moieties, including derivatives of complex bioactive molecules. Mechanistic work revealed that this transformation proceeds through an alkyl radical generated after the halogen atom transfer.

Cu/Mn bimetallic catalysis enables carbonylative Suzuki-Miyaura coupling with unactivated alkyl electrophiles.

Project description:A bimetallic system consisting of Cu-carbene and Mn-carbonyl co-catalysts was employed for carbonylative C-C coupling of arylboronic esters with alkyl halides, allowing for the convergent synthesis of ketones. The system operates under mild conditions and exhibits complementary reactivity to Pd catalysis. The method is compatible with a wide range of arylboronic ester nucleophiles and proceeds smoothly for both primary and secondary alkyl iodide electrophiles. Preliminary mechanistic experiments corroborate a hypothetical catalytic mechanism consisting of co-dependent cycles wherein the Cu-carbene co-catalyst engages in transmetallation to generate an organocopper nucleophile, while the Mn-carbonyl co-catalyst activates the alkyl halide electrophile by single-electron transfer and then undergoes reversible carbonylation to generate an acylmanganese electrophile. The two cycles then intersect with a heterobimetallic, product-releasing C-C coupling step.

Selective and Serial Suzuki-Miyaura Reactions of Polychlorinated Aromatics with Alkyl Pinacol Boronic Esters.

Project description:Among cross-coupling reactions, the Suzuki-Miyaura transformation stands out because of its practical advantages, including the commercial availability and low toxicity of the required reagents, mild reaction conditions, and functional group compatibility. Nevertheless, few conditions can be used to cross-couple alkyl boronic acids or esters with aryl halides, especially 2-pyridyl halides. Herein, we describe two novel Suzuki-Miyaura protocols that enable selective conversion of polychlorinated aromatics, with a focus on reactions to convert 2,6-dichloropyridines to 2-chloro-6-alkylpyridines or 2-aryl-6-alkylpyridines.
