Dynamic Ligand Exchange of the Lanthanide Complex Leading to Structural and Functional Transformation: One-Pot Sequential Catalytic Asymmetric Epoxidation-Regioselective Epoxide-Opening Process
摘要:
The characteristic property of the lanthanide complex, which easily undergoes a dynamic ligand exchange and alters its structure and function in situ, is described. After the completion of the catalytic asymmetric epoxidation of various a,beta-unsaturated amides 2 in the presence of the Sm-(S)-BINOL-Ph3As=O (1:1:1) complex 1 (2-10 mol %), the addition of Me3SiN3 directly to the reaction mixture led to smooth epoxide-opening at room temperature, affording the corresponding anti-beta-azido-alpha-hydroxyamide 4 in excellent overall yield (up to 99%) with complete regioselectivity and excellent enantiomeric excess (up to >99%). The key to the success of the sequential process was the in situ generation of the highly reactive samarium azide complex through dynamic ligand exchange. In situ IR spectroscopy and other experiments provided strong evidence that the samariurn azide complex was generated. In addition, the relatively high Lewis basicity of the amide moiety had a key role in the high reactivity of both the epoxidation and the epoxide-opening reactions. Examinations of other nucleophiles such as sulfur or carbon nucleophiles as well as transformations of epoxide-opened products are also described.
decarbonylative alkenylation of aromatic carboxylic acids was developed. Under the reaction conditions, various benzoic acids including those bearing functional groups coupled to terminal alkenes, producing the corresponding internal alkenes in good to high yields. Cinnamic acids and bioactive benzoic acids such as 3-methylflavone-8-carboxylic acid, probenecid, adapalin, and febuxostat were also applicable to this

In this reaction with amides, the chemoselectivity toward the functionalization of the C(sp(3))-Hbonds adjacent to the nitrogen atom or the functionalization of the carbonyl C(sp(2))-Hbonds across alkenes relies on the reaction conditions.

A transition‐metal‐catalyzedborrowinghydrogen/hydrogen auto‐transfer strategy allows the utilization of feedstock alcohols as an alkylating partner, which avoids the formation of stoichiometric salt waste and enables a direct and benign approach for the construction of C‐N and C−C bonds. In this study, a nickel‐catalyzedα‐alkylation of unactivated amides and ester (tert‐butyl acetate) is carried

Oxidative cross-coupling reactions of benzylalcohols with N,N-dialkylacetamides were developed only employing oxygen as the terminal oxidant, efficiently providing a new, novel protocol for the construction of multifunctionalized cinnamides with the synergistic effects of KOH, organic photocatalyst eosin Y, and visible light irradiation at room temperature. A broad substrate scope and mild reaction
limitations of the base-free oxidativeHeckreaction with arylboronicacids have been explored. Under our conditions, the dmphen−palladium(II)-catalyzed arylation proceeded with air or p-benzoquinone as reoxidants of palladium(0). We found that ambient temperature and mild aerobic conditions allow for the use of substrates sensitive to palladium(II)-catalyzedoxidation. OxidativeHeck couplings, employing
