Published: April 2019

A robust transition-metal-free one-step strategy for the synthesis of ynamides from sulfonamides and ( Z)-1,2-dichloroalkenes or alkynyl chlorides is presented. This method is not only effective for internal ynamides but also amenable for terminal ynamides. Various functional groups, even the vinyl moiety, are compatible, and thus, this strategy offers the opportunity for further functionalization.

Synthesis of Indolines via Base-Mediated C-H Activation and Defluorinative C-N Coupling, with no Need for Transition-Metals.

Syntheses of (partially) aromatic nitrogen heterocycles increasingly rely on transition-metal catalyzed C-C- and C-N-cross-coupling reactions. Here we describe a different approach to the synthesis of indolines by a domino C(sp)-H activation, 1,2-addition, and defluorinative SAr-cyclization sequence to provide the target 1,2-diarylindolines (1,2-diaryl-2,3-dihydroindoles) from ortho-fluorinated methyl-arenes and N-aryl imines (benzylidene anilines) in a cyclocondensation that is mediated by potassium hexamethyldisilazide (KHMDS) as base exclusively. This transition-metal-free process via C-H and C-F bond activation provides a one-step entry into a wide array of indoline scaffolds (43 examples, up to 96 % yield).

An electrochemical or photoelectrochemical regioselective polyfluoroalkylation/cyclization cascade of 3-aza-1,5-dienes with sodium fluoroalkanesulfinates is presented. This protocol proceeds with a broad substrate scope and good functional group tolerance under mild, oxidant-free, transition-metal-free, and electrolyte-free conditions to provide 3-polyfluoroalkylated 4-pyrrolin-2-ones in one step from readily available -vinylacrylamides, and it is readily scalable to the Gram scale.

Fused diethynylbenzenes and phenanthrenes arynes with alkynylsilanes.

A method for the hydroalkynylation and catalytic cyclization reactions of hexadehydro-Diels-Alder-derived benzynes is described. Diethynylbenzene derivatives are generated in a one-step reaction trimethylsilyl-alkyne groups with benzyne formed by heating the appropriate tetrayne substrate. Trimethyl(phenylethynyl)silane loses TMS and binds to the electron-deficient site on HDDA-derived benzynes, and then phenanthrene was synthesized under mild reaction conditions by transition-metal-free, base promoted intramolecular cyclization.

A one-step method for the conversion of nitroarenes into phenols under operationally simple, transition-metal-free conditions is described. This denitrative functionalization protocol provides a concise and economical alternative to conventional three-step synthetic sequences. Experimental and computational studies suggest that nitroarenes may be substituted by an electron-catalysed radical-nucleophilic substitution (S 1) chain mechanism.

A straightforward protocol for the synthesis of 11-trifluoromethylated dibenzodiazepines has been developed via TBAC-induced trifluoromethylation/cyclization of -isocyanodiaryl amines using Togni's reagent as the trifluoromethyl source. This is the first report on the one-step construction of CF-containing dibenzodiazepine drug skeletons. Additionally, a series of 11-trifluoromethylated dibenzodiazepines were afforded in moderate to excellent yields under transition-metal-free conditions.
