Vinyl Fluorides

Vinyl fluorides play an important role in drug development as they serve as bioisosteres for peptide bonds and are found in a range of biologically active molecules. The discovery of safe, general and practical procedures to prepare vinyl fluorides remains an important goal and challenge for synthetic chemistry. Here we introduce an inexpensive and easily-handled reagent and report simple, scalable, and metal-free protocols for the regioselective and stereodivergent hydrofluorination of alkynes to access both the E and Z isomers of vinyl fluorides. These conditions were suitable for a diverse collection of alkynes, including several highly-functionalized pharmaceutical derivatives. Mechanistic and DFT studies support C–F bond formation through a vinyl cation intermediate, with the (E)- and (Z)-hydrofluorination products forming under kinetic and thermodynamic control, respectively.<br>

<p>α-substituted ketones are important chemical targets as synthetic intermediates as well as functionalities in in natural products and pharmaceuticals. We report the sp<sup>3</sup> C-H α-acetylation of sp<sup>3</sup> C-H substrates R-H with arylmethyl ketones ArC(O)Me to provide α-alkylated ketones ArC(O)CH<sub>2</sub>R at RT with <sup>t</sup>BuOO<sup>t</sup>Bu as oxidant via copper(I) β-diketiminato catalysts. Proceeding via alkyl radicals R•, this method enables α-substitution with bulky substituents without competing elimination that occurs in more traditional alkylation reactions between enolates and alkyl electrophiles. DFT studies suggest the intermediacy of copper(II) enolates [Cu<sup>II</sup>](CH<sub>2</sub>C(O)Ar) that capture alkyl radicals R• to give R-CH<sub>2</sub>C(O)Ar under competing dimerization of the copper(II) enolate to give the 1,4-diketone ArC(O)CH<sub>2</sub>CH<sub>2</sub>C(O)Ar.</p>

<p>The dinuclear b-diketiminato Ni<sup>II</sup><i>tert</i>-butoxide {[Me<sub>3</sub>NN]Ni}<sub>2</sub>(<i>μ</i>-O<i><sup>t</sup></i>Bu)<sub>2 </sub>(<b>2</b>), synthesized from [Me<sub>3</sub>NN]Ni(2,4-lutidine) (<b>1</b>) and di-<i>tert</i>-butylperoxide, is a versatile precursor for the synthesis of a series of Ni<sup>II</sup>complexes [Me<sub>3</sub>NN]Ni-FG to illustrate C-C, C-N, and C-O bond formation at Ni<sup>II </sup>via radicals. {[Me<sub>3</sub>NN]Ni}<sub>2</sub>(<i>μ</i>-O<i><sup>t</sup></i>Bu)<sub>2 </sub>reacts with nitromethane, alkyl and aryl amines, acetophenone, benzamide, ammonia and phenols to deliver corresponding mono- or dinuclear [Me<sub>3</sub>NN]Ni-FG species (FG = O<sub>2</sub>NCH<sub>2</sub>, R-NH, ArNH, PhC(O)NH, PhC(O)CH<sub>2</sub>, NH<sub>2</sub>and OAr). Many of these Ni<sup>II </sup>complexes are capable of capturing the benzylic radical PhCH(•)CH<sub>3 </sub>to deliver corresponding PhCH(FG)CH<sub>3 </sub>products featuring C-C, C-N or C-O bonds. DFT studies shed light on the mechanism of these transformations and suggest two competing pathways that depend on the nature of the functional groups. These radical capture reactions at [Ni<sup>II</sup>]-FG complexes outline key C-C, C-N, and C-O bond forming steps and suggest new families of nickel radical relay catalysts.</p>

Hydrazone Form

The 15N, 13C, and 1H NMR spectra were measured for azo and hydrazo compounds derived from 1,3,3-trimethyl-2-methylidene-2,3-dihydroindole (Fischer base), which is a passive component with a terminal methylidene group. Products prepared by coupling in hydrochloric acid exist in the corresponding hydrazone form as the E-isomers. Neutralization gives a mixture of two isomeric azo compounds which differ in the arrangement at the C(2)=C(10) double bond. This mixture was alkylated with methyl iodide to obtain the =N-N(CH3)- hydrazone derivatives. The geometric isomers were resolved based on the NOESY approach and the stereospecific behaviour of the 2J(15N,13C) coupling constants was studied for the 15N-labelled compounds.
