6‐Arylphenanthridines from Aryl o‐Biaryl Ketones with 1,1,1,3,3,3‐Hexamethyldisilazane and Molecular Iodine

European Journal of Organic Chemistry 6‐Arylphenanthridines from Aryl o‐Biaryl Ketones with 1,1,1,3,3,3‐Hexamethyldisilazane and Molecular Iodine

Aryl biaryl ketones were transformed into 6‐arylphenanthridines efficiently by the reaction with 1,1,1,3,3,3‐hexamethyldisilazane in the presence of Sc(OTf)3 in toluene, followed by removal of the solvent, and the subsequent reaction with molecular iodine and K2CO3 in a mixture of THF and methanol.


Warming treatment of aryl o‐biaryl ketones with 1,1,1,3,3,3‐hexamethyldisilazane in the presence of Sc(OTf)3 in toluene, followed by the reaction with molecular iodine and K2CO3 in a mixture of THF and methanol at 60 °C gave the corresponding 6‐arylphenanthridines in good to moderate yields. The present reaction is a one‐pot method for the preparation of 6‐arylphenanthridines from aryl o‐biaryl ketones through the cyclization of imino‐nitrogen‐centered radicals that were generated from N‐iodo aryl o‐biaryl ketimines formed from the reaction of aryl biaryl ketimines with molecular iodine.

Selective Debromination and α-Hydroxylation of α-Bromo Ketones Using Hantzsch Esters as Photoreductants

by Jaehun Jung, Jun Kim, Gyurim Park, Youngmin You, Eun Jin Cho

Abstract

Two transformations initiated by photoinduced one-electron transfer to α-bromo ketones have been demonstrated. Hantzsch esters donate one electron to α-bromo ketones under photoirradiation, promoting reductive debromination. Subsequent reactions of the resulting radical species of the ketones with molecular oxygen and Hantzsch esters lead to α-hydroxylation or debromination, respectively. The relative dominance of the two pathways depends profoundly on the reaction conditions, including solvent, O2 levels, and the concentration of the Hantzsch esters. The synthetic protocols feature advantages because they require the environmentally benign sources, molecular oxygen and visible light.

Visible‐Light Promoted Polycyclizations of Dienynes

by Matteo Lanzi, Veronica Santacroce, Davide Balestri, Luciano Marchiò, Franca Bigi, Raimondo Maggi, Max Malacria, Giovanni Maestri

A variety of linear dienynes can deliver complex tetracyclic frameworks in the presence of an Ir(III) complex and visible light. Products feature the assembly of four new C‐C bonds and six contiguous stereocenters, which decorate two [3.1.0] bicyclic units tethered through their bridging quaternary carbons. The internal alkyne acts as a formal dicarbenoid to assemble two cyclopropanes in these radical cationic cascades. This behavior has not been previously observed among organic reactive intermediates and can be extended to intermolecular reactions and diendiynes.

Reduction of phosphine oxides to the corresponding phosphine derivatives in Mg/Me3SiCl/DMI system

Publication date: 11 February 2015
Source:Tetrahedron Letters, Volume 56, Issue 7
Author(s): Manabu Kuroboshi , Toshihito Kita , Asuka Aono , Toshimasa Katagiri , Seiya Kikuchi , Syoko Yamane , Hiromu Kawakubo , Hideo Tanaka
Direct reductions of phosphine oxides to the corresponding phosphines were performed successfully by using Mg/Me3SiCl/DMI system. The reduction proceeded under mild conditions and was applicable to a wide range of phosphine oxides; triarylphosphine oxides, alkyldiarylphosphine oxides, and dialkylarylphosphine oxides gave the corresponding phosphines in good to excellent yields.

Iridium(III)-Catalyzed CH Amidation of Arylphosphoryls Leading to a P-Stereogenic Center

by Donghyeon Gwon, Donggun Lee, Jiyu Kim, Sehoon Park, Sukbok Chang

Abstract

Direct C[BOND]H amidation of arylphosphoryl compounds has been developed by using an IrIII catalyst system under mild conditions. A wide range of substrates could be employed with high functional-group tolerance. This procedure was successfully applied for the first time to the asymmetric reaction giving rise to a P-chirogenic center with a high diastereomeric ratio of up to 19:1 (90 % de).

Synthesis of Fluorinated Heteroaromatics through Formal Substitution of a Nitro Group by Fluorine under Transition-Metal-Free Conditions

by Ran-Ning Guo, Xian-Feng Cai, Lei Shi, Zhang-Pei Chen, Yong-Gui Zhou

Abstract

An efficient and transition-metal-free approach was developed to access a series of fluorinated heteroaromatics in moderate to excellent yields. This one-pot procedure features a triple-relay transformation of rapid dearomatization, fluorination, and rearomatization processes, which represents a conceptually novel strategy of combining partial hydrogenation and electrophilic fluorination.

Novel Li3X3 supersalts (X = F, Cl, Br & I) and their alkalide characteristics

Ambrish Kumar Srivastava, Neeraj Misra
This interaction is stronger than that between Li and X, forming traditional LiX salts. Thus, these non-traditional Li3X3 species should be regarded as supersalts which consist of Li2X and LiX2 superatomic moieties.
