Published: September 2016

An efficient copper-catalyzed radical decarboxylative imidation reaction is presented. This strategy is carried out through the copper(i)-catalyzed decarboxylative C(sp(3))-N and C(sp(2))-N coupling of carboxylic acids with N-fluoroarylsulfonimides. The reaction shows good functional group tolerance and it provides a new approach for decarboxylative imidation. Preliminary mechanistic studies of this transformation suggest an involvement of N-centered radical species.

Article Synopsis
  • PFOA, a persistent chemical found globally in water sources, is challenging to remove due to its stability.
  • This study shows that using a specific catalyst (poly-triazine-imides-tailored defective BiOI) can effectively degrade PFOA under light irradiation, reducing its concentration significantly.
  • The research highlights the mechanism behind this process, involving enhanced light absorption and efficient separation of charge carriers, leading to effective breakdown of PFOA and providing new ideas for designing catalysts to tackle similar pollutants.

An efficient strategy for visible-light-promoted decarboxylative alkylation of vinylcyclopropanes with alkyl -(acyloxy)phthalimide esters through the dual C-C bond and single N-O bond cleavage, employing triphenylphosphine and lithium iodide as the photoredox system to synthesize 2-alkylated 3,4-dihydronaphthalenes, has been established. This alkylation/cyclization involves a radical process and undergoes a sequence of -(acyloxy)phthalimide ester single-electron reduction, N-O bond cleavage, decarboxylative, alkyl radical addition, C-C bond cleavage, and intramolecular cyclization. Moreover, using the photocatalyst Na-Eosin Y instead of triphenylphosphine and lithium iodide, the vinyl transfer products are acquired when vinylcyclobutanes or vinylcyclopentanes are utilized as alkyl radical receptors.

Amines and carboxylic acids are abundant synthetic building blocks that are classically united to form an amide bond. To access new pockets of chemical space, we are interested in the development of amine-acid coupling reactions that complement the amide coupling. In particular, the formation of carbon-carbon bonds by formal deamination and decarboxylation would be an impactful addition to the synthesis toolbox.
