Cyclopropyldiphenylsulfonium salt is a famous ylide precursor that was previously extensively employed in the preparation of cyclic compounds and has been successfully utilized as an efficient allylation reagent in this work. The Cu-catalyzed reactions of cyclopropyldiphenylsulfonium trifluoromethanesulfonate with amines in the presence of an appropriate ligand provided the N-allylated products in good yields. Aliphatic/aromatic amines and primary/secondary amines were all mildly converted under the reaction conditions. This protocol was also applicable to N-functionalization of drug molecules, supplying the corresponding N-allylated compounds in satisfactory yields. The reaction showed good functional group tolerance, a wide range of substrates, and excellent chemoselectivity, which offered an interesting method for the synthesis of N-allyl amines.

Abstract Visible light mediated late-stage functionalization is a rising field in synthetic and medicinal chemistry, allowing the fast and diversified modification of valuable, potentially therapeutic compounds such as peptides. However, there are relatively few mild methodologies for the C(sp3)-H functionalization of complex peptides. Herein, we report a visible light mediated photocatalytic protocol for the benzylic C-H modification of tyrosine and related C-H bonds. The embraced radical-cation/deprotonation strategy enables an incorporation of a wide range of valuable functional groups in high yields and chemoselectivity. The mild reaction conditions, site-selectivity and high functional group tolerance was highlighted by the functionalization of complex peptides, drugs and natural products, providing a promising synthetic platform in medicinal chemistry.

Tertiary 5-nitrofurylamines were prepared by a nucleophilic substitution of 5-nitro-2-furfuryl bromide (I) with aliphatic secondary amines. According to reaction conditions N-(5-nitro-2-furfuryl)-X-phenylamines or their mixture with N,N-di(5-nitro-2-furfuryl)-X-phenylamines were obtained from the reaction of I with substituted primary aromatic amines. Compound I gave with 2-aminophenol a mixture of O- and N-mono- and disubstituted derivatives, and with ethyl salicylate ethyl 2-(5-nitro-2-furfuryloxy)benzoate.

Chiral alkyl amines are omnipresent as bio-active molecules and synthetic intermediates. Catalytic and enantioselective synthesis of alkyl amines from readily accessible precursors is challenging. Here we develop a nickel-catalyzed hydroalkylation method to assemble a wide range of chiral alkyl amines from enamides and alkyl halides in high regio- and enantioselectivity. The method works for both non-activated and activated alkyl halides, and is able to produce enantiomerically enriched amines with two minimally differentiated alpha-alkyl substituents. The mild conditions lead to high functional group tolerance, which is demonstrated in the post-product functionalization of many natural products and drug molecules, as well as the synthesis of chiral building blocks and key intermediates to bio-active compounds.

Successful Capture

Abstract Organic sulfides form the core scaffold of a wide range of pharmaceuticals, natural products, and materials, and serve as key intermediates in synthesis. Prior methods to organic sulfides require the use of transition metal (TM) catalysts, prefunctionalized or chelating group-containing substrates, and elevated reaction temperatures. A general TM-free C–H thiolation protocol using readily accessible sulfur source is highly desirable. Herein, we disclose a direct C(sp)–, C(sp2)–, and C(sp3)–H thiolation reaction using β-sulfinylesters as the versatile sulfur source. The key step of this protocol is chemoselective C–S bond cleavage of the sulfonium salts that is in situ formed from the corresponding (hetero)arenes, alkenes, alkynes, and 1,3-dicarboxyl compounds with β-sulfinylesters. The successful capture of acrylate byproduct supports a retro-Michael reaction mechanism. This method is expected to be used widely because of several advantageous aspects including TM-free, mild reaction conditions, and broad substrate scope including drug molecules.

AbstractIsopropenyl ethers are critical intermediates for accessing medicinally valuable ketal-based prodrugs and biomaterials, but traditional approaches for the synthesis of isopropenyl ethers suffer from poor functional group compatibility and harsh reaction conditions. Here, we develop an organocatalytic transisopropenylation approach to solve these challenges, enabling the synthesis of isopropenyl ethers from various hydroxyl-group-containing small-molecule drugs, polymers, and functional building blocks. The method provides a straightforward and versatile synthesis of isopropenyl ethers, features excellent tolerance of diverse functional groups, applies to a wide range of substrates, and allows scalable synthesis. The development of this organocatalytic transisopropenylation approach enables access to modular preparation of various acid-sensitive ketal-linked prodrugs and functionalized ketalated biomaterials. We expect our syntheses and transformations of isopropenyl ethers will find utility in several diverse fields, including medicinal chemistry, drug delivery, and biomaterials.

AbstractPyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridine is a privileged scaffold found in many small drug molecules that possess a wide range of pharmacological properties. Efforts to further develop and exploit synthetic methodologies that permit the functionalization of this heterocyclic moiety warrant investigation. To this end, a series of novel 1,3-disubstituted pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridine-3-carboxamide derivatives have been prepared by introducing the 3-carboxamide moiety using palladium-catalyzed aminocarbonylation methodology and employing CO gas generated ex situ using a two-chamber reactor (COware®). The functional group tolerance of this optimized aminocarbonylation protocol is highlighted through the synthesis of a range of diversely substituted C-3 carbox­amide pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridines in excellent yields of up to 99%.

Abstract The analysis of aromatic amines, particularly benzidines, at trace levels in environmental media has been difficult because of the lack of suitable deactivated capillary column stationary phases for gas chromatography. This report describes the use of an improved type of column as well as a method for the analysis of anilines and benzidines in water, wastewater and sewage samples. Extraction procedures are applicable to a wide range of compounds that are effectively partitioned from an aqueous matrix into methylene chloride, or onto a solid-phase extraction cartridge. The extracted analytes are also amenable to separation on a capillary gas chromatographic column and transferable to the mass spectrometer. These contaminants are converted to their N-trifluoroacetyl derivatives. Aniline and some substituted anilines, and 3,3’-dichlorobenzidine and benzidine were determined in 24-h composite industrial water, wastewater, primary sludge and final effluent samples at concentrations from 0.03 up to 2760 µg/L.

Phosphines are widely used ligands in transition metal-catalyzed reactions. Arylphosphines, such as triphenylphosphine, were among the first phosphines to show broad utility in catalysis. Beginning in the late 1990s, sterically demanding and electronrich trialkylphosphines began to receive attention as supporting ligands. These ligands were found to be particularly effective at promoting oxidative addition in cross-coupling of aryl halides. With electron-rich, sterically demanding ligands, such as tri-tertbutylphosphine, coupling of aryl bromides could be achieved at room temperature. More importantly, the less reactive, but more broadly available, aryl chlorides became accessible substrates. Tri-tert-butylphosphine has become a privileged ligand that has found application in a wide range of late transition-metal catalyzed coupling reactions. This success has led to the use of numerous monodentate trialkylphosphines in cross-coupling reactions. This review will discuss the general properties and features of monodentate trialkylphosphines and their application in cross-coupling reactions of C–X and C–H bonds.
