Teaching Old Compounds New Tricks: DDQ‐Photocatalyzed C−H Amination of Arenes with Carbamates, Urea, and N‐Heterocycles
نویسندگان
چکیده
The C-H amination of benzene derivatives was achieved using DDQ as photocatalyst and BocNH2 as the amine source under aerobic conditions and visible light irradiation. Electron-deficient and electron-rich benzenes react as substrates with moderate to good product yields. The amine scope of the reaction comprises Boc-amine, carbamates, pyrazoles, sulfonimides and urea. Preliminary mechanistic investigations indicate arene oxidation by the triplet of DDQ to radical cations with different electrophilicity and a charge transfer complex between the amine and DDQ as intermediate of the reaction.

N-Acyloxyphthalimides as Nitrogen Radical Precursors in the Visible Light Photocatalyzed Room Temperature C–H Amination of Arenes and Heteroarenes
This paper reports a room temperature visible light photocatalyzed method for the C-H amination of arenes and heteroarenes. A key enabling advance in this work is the design of N-acyloxyphthalimides as precursors to nitrogen-based radical intermediates for these transformations. A broad substrate scope is presented, including the selective meta-amination of pyridine derivatives. A radical aroma...

The syntheses of representative examples of five classes of new heterocyclic ligands are described. These include N,N'-chelating bis-heterocycles, binucleating ligands, cyclometallated compounds, chiral ligands and a family of polyheteroaryl-linked arenes.
متن کاملSynthesis of Saturated Five-Membered Nitrogen Heterocycles via Pd-Catalyzed C N Bond-Forming Reactions
Saturated five-membered nitrogen heterocycles, such as pyrrolidines, indolines, and isoxazolidines, appear as subunits in a broad array of biologically active and medicinally significant molecules [1]. As such, the synthesis of these compounds has been of longstanding interest. Many classical approaches to the construction of these heterocycles involve the use of C N bond-forming reactions such...

Reaction of 2-hydrazinocarbonyl-3-chloro-5-phenoxy-benzo[b] thiophene with different substituted phenyl isothiocyanate gave N-substituted arylthiosemi-carbazide derivatives (1a-h). 1,3,4-Thiadiazole derivatives (2a-h) were prepared by the cyclization of arylthiosemicarbazides (1a-h) with concentrated sulphuric acid. All the compounds were screened for their antitubercular activity against Mycob...
متن کاملIntramolecular Pd(II)-catalyzed aerobic oxidative amination of alkenes: synthesis of six-membered N-heterocycles.
Use of a base-free Pd(DMSO)(2)(TFA)(2) catalyst system enables the synthesis of six-membered nitrogen heterocycles via a Wacker-type aerobic oxidative cyclization of alkenes bearing tethered sulfonamides. Various heterocycles, including morpholines, piperidines, piperazines, and piperazinones, are accessible by this method.
