New copper(I) complexes with tris(2-pyridyl)methane (TPC), tris(2-pyridyl)methoxymethane (TPM) and tris(2-pyridyl)amine (TPN) ligands have been synthesized and characterized, including structural determinations by X-ray diffraction of some examples. Their activity as catalysts in carbene and nitrenetransferreactions was studied.

The catalytic functionalization of the C-sp(2)-H bond of benzene by means of the insertion of the CHCO2Et group from ethyl diazoacetate (N-2=CHCO2Et) has been studied with the series of coinage-metal complexes IPrMCl (IPr = 1,3-bis(diisopropylphenyl)imidazol-2-ylidene) and NaBAr4F (BAr4F = tetrakis(3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)borate). For Cu and Ag, these examples constitute the first use of such metals toward this transformation, which also provides ethyl cyclohepta-2,4,6-trienecarboxylate as a byproduct from the so-called Buchner reaction. In the case of methyl-substituted benzenes, the reaction exclusively proceeds onto the aromatic ring, the C-sp(2)-H bond remaining unreacted. A significant coinage-metal effect has been observed, since the gold catalyst favors the formation of the insertion product into the C-sp(2)-H bond whereas copper and silver preferentially induce the formation of the cycloheptatriene derivative. Experimental studies and theoretical calculations have explained the observed selectivity in terms of the formation of a common Wheland intermediate, resembling an electrophilic aromatic substitution, from which the reaction pathway evolves into two separate routes to each product.

We exploit the Buchner reaction to access 1,2-disubstituted cyclohexadiene synthons (norcaradienes), which participate in H2O-accelerated cycloaddition with dieneophiles to provide cyclopropyl-fused [2.2.2]-bicyclooctene derivatives in good yields. Regioisomeric mixtures can be kinetically separated by exploiting different reaction rates in Diels Alder reactions. Meso-Diels-Alder products may be enantioselectively desymmetrized, providing highly substituted cyclohexanes with up to seven contiguous stereocenters.

The complex Ag-3(mu(2)-3,5-(CF3)(2)PyrPy)(3) (3,5-(CF3)(2)PyrPy = 2,2'-pyridylpyrrolide(1-) ligand) catalytically promotes the insertion of the carbene of ethyl diazoacetate (EDA), at room temperature, into the C=C bond of a series of arenes to ultimately ring-open them and form the corresponding cycloheptatrienes. In one case, the norcaradiene intermediate can be isolated, while regioselective C=C insertion can be promoted with certain arene substrates. The mechanism of C=C insertion, preference over C-H insertion, and origin of C=C regioselectivity has been probed by a combination of experimental and theoretical studies.
