Biphilic Organophosphorus Catalysis: Regioselective Reductive Transposition of Allylic Bromides via PIII/PVRedox Cycling
摘要:
We report that a regioselective reductive transposition of primary allylic bromides is catalyzed by a biphilic organophosphorus (phosphetane) catalyst. Spectroscopic, evidence supports the formation of a penta:coordinate (sigma(5)-P) hydridophosphorane as a key reactive intermediate. Kinetics experiments and computational modeling are consistent with a unimolecular docomposition of the sigma(5)-P hydridophosphorane via a conceited cyclic transition,structure that delivers the observed allylic transposition and completes a novel P-III/P-V redox Catalytic cycle. These results broaden the growing repertoire., of reactions catalyzed within the P-III/P-V redox couple and suggest additional opportunities for organophosphorus,catalysis in a biphilic mode.

Synthesis of Allylic and Propargylic Trifluoromethyl Thioethers by Copper(I)-Catalyzed Trifluoromethylthiolation of Allylic Bromides and Propargylic Chlorides
copper(I)-catalyzed trifluoromethylthiolation of allylicbromides by using elemental sulfur and CF3SiMe3. This rate of this transformation was significantly accelerated in the presence of 18-crown-6, and the reaction afforded the desired products in moderate to excellent yields with high stereo- and regioselectivity. This method can tolerate a number of functional groups and provides facile access to a variety
Synthesis of propargylic and allylic trifluoromethyl selenoethers by copper-mediated trifluoromethylselenolation of propargylic chlorides and allylic bromides
The copper-mediated trifluoromethylselenolation of propargylic chlorides and allylic bromides is described. This approach provides a wide range of propargylic and allylic trifluoromethyl selenoethers in moderate to good yields. These results open the way to synthesis strategies for various trifluoromethylselenolated compounds.
