4-N-allylarylpropylamino-1-sulfonyl triazoles are converted to structurally unique benzopyrrolizidinyl sulfonamides in a one-pot operation. Intramolecular capture of rhodium carbene with arylamino nitrogen gives rise to the formation of an ammonium ylide immediate. A [2,3]- or [1,2]-rearrangement occurs to give a 2-allylpyrrolidinyl-2-carbimine intermediate which undergoes Cu(OTf)2 catalyzed aza-Friedel-Crafts cyclization to finish a highly functionalized tricyclic system decorated with a synthetically difficult quaternary carbon center, a sulfonamide group, and an allyl segment.

Polyfluoroalkanoic Acids as Fluoroalkylating Reagents: Strategy for Direct Access to R-Embedded Amides.

Org Lett

January 2025

Laboratory of Catalysis and Organic Synthesis, Department of Chemistry, Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee, Roorkee 247667, Uttarakhand, India.

Herein, we have reported the application of bench stable perfluoroalkanoic acids as fluoro-alkylating reagents in combination with DIB and primary amides for sequential one-pot transformation to R-embedded functionalized amides under metal-free conditions. The protocol is tolerant to a range of sensitive functional groups (>33 examples and up to 90% yield), and perfluoro acids. Preliminary mechanistic studies, control experiments, in situ F-NMR analyses, and the synthesis of intermediate species were performed to understand the reaction pathways.

Rhodium(III) catalysis has been used for C-H activation of -nitrosoanilines with substituted allyl alcohols. This method provides an efficient synthesis of the functional -nitroso β-aryl aldehydes and ketones with low catalyst loading, high functional group tolerance, and superior reactivity of allyl alcohols toward -nitrosoanilines. We demonstrated that reaction also proceeds through the one-pot synthesis of -nitrosoaniline, followed by subsequent, C-H activation.

A streamlined strategy for the one-pot synthesis of isoxazolone analogues has been developed through an acceptorless dehydrogenative annulation (ADA) pathway by employing new Ru(II) hydride complexes as effective catalysts. New Ru(II) complexes () tailored with N̂O chelating carbazolone benzhydrazone ligands were synthesized and their formation was confirmed using analytical and spectral techniques including FT-IR and NMR. The structural configuration of the complexes featuring an octahedral geometry around the Ru(II) ion was precisely determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis.

Optogenetic systems utilize genetically encoded light-sensitive proteins to control cellular processes such as gene expression and protein localization. Like most synthetic systems, generation of an optogenetic system with desirable properties requires multiple design-test-build cycles. A yeast optogenetic toolkit (yOTK) allows rapid assembly of optogenetic constructs using Modular Cloning, or MoClo.

Heterocoupling Two Similar Benzyl Radicals by Dual Photoredox/Cobalt Catalysis.

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl

December 2024

Zhengzhou University, College of Chemistry, and Pingyuan Laboratory, CHINA.

Transition-metal-regulated radical cross coupling enables the selective bonding of two distinct transient radicals, whereas the catalytic method for sorting two almost identical transient radicals, especially similar benzyl radicals, is still rare. Herein, we show that leveraging dual photoredox/cobalt catalysis can selectively couple two similar benzyl radicals. Using easily accessible methylarenes and phenylacetates (benzyl N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHPI) esters) as benzyl radical sources, a range of unsymmetrical 1,2-diarylethane classes via the 1°-1°, 1°-2°, 1°-3°, 2°-2°, 2°-3° and 3°-3° couplings were obtained with broad functional group tolerance.
