A variety of novel disubstituted 2-(alknyl, aryl and arylamine)-6-alkynylpyrazolo[1,5-]pyrimidine derivatives was prepared sequential site-selective cross-coupling reactions from 2,6-dibromopyrazolo[1,5-]pyrimidine 3. The regio-controlled Sonogashira-type coupling of 3 with a wide range of terminal alkynes proceeded smoothly with excellent selectivity in favor of the C6-position through careful adjustment of the coupling conditions, followed by the subsequent introduction of alkynyl, aryl or arylamine groups at the C2-position the Sonogashira, Suzuki-Miyaura and Buchwald-Hartwig coupling reactions, respectively. These promising results allow for further use and diversification of the chemically and biologically interesting pyrazolo[1,5-]pyrimidine scaffold. In addition, computational studies were conducted to provide explanations for the origin of regioselectivity.

Article Synopsis
  • Site-selective hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) from quinoxaline-2(1)-ones offers a new, efficient method for creating functionalized pyrroloquinoxalinones through synergistic photocatalysis and HAT catalysis.
  • The reaction utilizes bromine radicals to achieve HAT and promotes a cross-coupling process with α-cyano-α,β-unsaturated ketones, streamlining the synthesis.
  • This protocol is advantageous as it avoids transition metals, requires minimal oxidants, and utilizes easily obtainable starting materials, demonstrating significant potential for producing novel imine-containing compounds.

An efficient visible light/copper-enabled arylation and alkenylation of phosphorothioates with thianthrenium salts via a C(sp)-S cross-coupling reaction have been demonstrated. This strategy uses aryl/alkenyl thianthrenium salts as new electrophilic reagents, which can be easily prepared by the site-selective C-H thianthrenation of arenes/alkenes with high regioselectivity. Mechanistic studies revealed a crucial role of the in situ formed copper-sulfur complex, which undergoes a facile SET process with the thianthrenium salts under visible light conditions, thereby successfully achieving the desired cross-coupling reactivity.

We reported the visible-light-mediated photoredox-catalyzed oxidative radical-polar crossover and 1,5-hydrogen atom transfer combined site-selective remote C(sp)-N cross-coupling alkylamination of alkenes. Various anilines and hydroxamides (1,5-hydrogen atom transfer reagents) could be tolerated. The mechanistic studies indicated the radical nature of the reaction and the indispensability of light and photocatalyst.
