A combination of experimental and density functional theory (DFT) investigations suggests that the Cu-catalyzed fluorination of unsymmetrical diaryliodonium salts with general structure [Mes(Ar)I]+ in N,N'-dimethylformamide proceeds through a CuI/CuIII catalytic cycle. A low concentration of fluoride relative to combined iodonium reagent plus copper ensures that [Mes(Ar)I]+ is available as the ...

A tandem transformation of C-N coupling/C-H carbonylation has been developed for the synthesis of benzo-1,4-oxazepine pharmaceutically derivatives. Notably, this reaction was accomplished by various phenylamine with ally halides under carbon dioxide atmosphere employing 2-(2-dimethylamino-vinyl)-1H-inden-1-olcatalyzed. Furthermore, under the optimized conditions, various benzo-1,4-oxazepine der...

Bis-thiosemicarbazones derived from the ?-diketone benzoylacetone (H3banR, R=Me, Et, Ph) are potentially tetradentate N2S2 ligands whose coordination chemistry with copper is reported. In absence of oxygen and in presence base they form anionic CuII complexes fully deprotonated [CuII(banR)]–. Upon exposure to atmospheric undergo a complex series reactions leading two types products; one ligand ...

The reaction mechanism of Cu-catalyzed C-H hydroxylation/C-S coupling was studied using electrospray ionization high resolution mass spectrometry (ESI-HR MS) and density functional theory calculations (DFT). Notably, a series of CuI and CuIII complexes were observed as key intermediates and identified using ESI-HR MS. Furthermore, a catalyst cycle involving proton abstraction/oxidative addition...

Copper nanoparticles were fabricated by electro-reduction of CuSO4solution in the presence of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) cationic surfactant as an additive through potentiostatic method. The prepared copper nanoparticles were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and electrochemical methods. The SEM images reveal that the nanoparticles with diameters at about 70 n...

The LCuBr-catalyzed C-H imidation of arenes by N-fluorobenzenesulfonimide (NFSI), previously reported by us, utilizes an inexpensive catalyst and is applicable to a broad scope of complex arenes. The computational and experimental study reported here shows that the mechanism of the reaction is comprised of two parts: (1) generation of the active dinuclear CuII-CuII catalyst; and (2) the catalyt...
