Ligand-Promoted Alkylation of C(sp3)–H and C(sp2)–H Bonds

چکیده
9-Methylacridine was identified as a generally effective ligand to promote a Pd(II)-catalyzed C(sp(3))-H and C(sp(2))-H alkylation of simple amides with various alkyl iodides. This alkylation reaction was applied to the preparation of unnatural amino acids and geometrically controlled tri- and tetrasubstituted acrylic acids.

Mechanistic and Kinetic Studies of the Direct Alkylation of Benzylic Amines: A Formal C(sp3)–H Activation Proceeds Actually via a C(sp2)–H Activation Pathway
Mechanistic investigations of a Rh(I)-catalyzed direct C-H alkylation of benzylic amines with alkenes, formally an C(sp3)-H activation, reveal this reaction to proceed via imine intermediates and, hence, via C(sp2)-H activation. The reaction shows a primary kinetic isotope effect of 4.3 at the benzylic C-H position together with a reversible H-D exchange at the same position, which indicates th...
متن کاملSynthesis of 2-oxindoles via 'transition-metal-free' intramolecular dehydrogenative coupling (IDC) of sp2 C–H and sp3 C–H bonds
The synthesis of a variety of 2-oxindoles bearing an all-carbon quaternary center at the pseudo benzylic position has been achieved via a 'transition-metal-free' intramolecular dehydrogenative coupling (IDC). The construction of 2-oxindole moieties was carried out through formation of carbon-carbon bonds using KOt-Bu-catalyzed one pot C-alkylation of β-N-arylamido esters with alkyl halides foll...

The intramolecular sp2 and sp3 C-H activated products, as well as the monometalated products, based on the "(p-cymene)Ru(NHC)" framework were synthesised by treatment of a series of NHCs (1-R-3-methylimidazol-2-ylidene [R=Ph (1), Bn (2), t-Bu (3), i-Pr (4), Mes (5), Cy (6)] and 1,3-bis(isopropyl)imidazol-2-ylidene (7)) with [(p-cymene)RuCl2]2 under mild conditions. A new NHC precursor (1-tert-b...
متن کاملPhoto-induced oxidant-free oxidative C–H/N–H cross-coupling between arenes and azoles
Direct cross-coupling between simple arenes and heterocyclic amines under mild conditions is undoubtedly important for C-N bonds construction. Selective C(sp2)-H amination is more valuable. Herein we show a selective C(sp2)-H amination of arenes (alkyl-substituted benzenes, biphenyl and anisole derivatives) accompanied by hydrogen evolution by using heterocyclic azoles as nitrogen sources. The ...
متن کاملRoom temperature C(sp2)–H oxidative chlorination via photoredox catalysis† †Electronic supplementary information (ESI) available. See DOI: 10.1039/c7sc03010j Click here for additional data file.
Photoredox catalysis has been developed to achieve oxidative C-H chlorination of aromatic compounds using NaCl as the chlorine source and Na2S2O8 as the oxidant. The reactions occur at room temperature and exhibit exclusive selectivity for C(sp2)-H bonds over C(sp3)-H bonds. The method has been used for the chlorination of a diverse set of substrates, including the expedited synthesis of key in...
