Arylation with Unsymmetrical Diaryliodonium Salts: A Chemoselectivity Study
نویسندگان
چکیده
Phenols, anilines, and malonates have been arylated under metal-free conditions with twelve aryl(phenyl)iodonium salts in a systematic chemoselectivity study. A new "anti-ortho effect" has been identified in the arylation of malonates. Several "dummy groups" have been found that give complete chemoselectivity in the transfer of the phenyl moiety, irrespective of the nucleophile. An aryl exchange in the diaryliodonium salts has been observed under certain arylation conditions. DFT calculations have been performed to investigate the reaction mechanism and to elucidate the origins of the observed selectivities. These results are expected to facilitate the design of chiral diaryliodonium salts and the development of catalytic arylation reactions that are based on these sustainable and metal-free reagents.

Transition-Metal-Free N-Arylation of Pyrazoles with Diaryliodonium Salts.
A new synthetic method was developed for the N-arylation of pyrazoles using diaryliodonium salts. The transformation does not require any transition-metal catalyst and provides the desired N-arylpyrazoles rapidly under mild reaction condition in the presence of aqueous ammonia solution as a mild base without the use of inert atmosphere. The chemoselectivity of unsymmetric diaryliodonium salts w...

An efficient "one-pot" approach to multiple substituted ureas from N-arylcyanamide and diaryliodonium salts has been presented. The two-step procedure involved the weak base-promoted chemoselective arylation of secondary amines with diaryliodonium and Cu-catalyzed nucleophilic addition of N-arylcyanamide with second diaryliodonium. The diverse unsymmetrical arylureas were obtained in up to 91% ...

Conscious of the potential bioactivity of fluorine, an investigation was conducted using various fluorine-containing diaryliodonium salts in order to study and compare their biological activity against human lymphoma U937 cells. Most of the compounds tested are well-known reagents for fluoro-functionalized arylation reactions in synthetic organic chemistry, but their biological properties are n...
متن کاملThiophosphoramides as cooperative catalysts for copper-catalyzed arylation of carboxylates with diaryliodonium salts.
A thiophosphoramide-based co-catalyst was found to significantly accelerate copper(II) trifluoromethanesulfonate-catalyzed arylation of potassium carboxylates with diaryliodonium salts. This effect could be attributed to counterion activation of diaryliodonium salts or organocopper intermediates by thiophosphoramides. Inclusion of thiophosphoramides permits achieving significantly milder reacti...
متن کاملEnantioselective and Regiodivergent Copper-Catalyzed Electrophilic Arylation of Allylic Amides with Diaryliodonium Salts
A catalytic enantioselective and regiodivergent arylation of alkenes is described. Chiral copper(II)bisoxazoline complexes catalyze the addition of diaryliodonium salts to allylic amides in excellent ee. Moreover, the arylation can be controlled by the electronic nature of the diaryliodonium salt enabling the preparation of nonracemic diaryloxazines or β,β'-diaryl enamides.
