Catalytic Access to Functionalized Allylic gem-Difluorides via Fluorinative Meyer–Schuster-Like Rearrangement

An unprecedented approach for efficient synthesis of functionalized allylic gem-difluorides via catalytic fluorinative Meyer–Schuster-like rearrangement is disclosed. This transformation proceeded with readily accessible propargylic fluorides, and low-cost B–F reagents and electrophilic reagents by sulfide catalysis. A series of iodinated, brominated, and trifluoromethylthiolated allylic gem-difluorides that were difficult to access by other methods were facilely produced with a wide range of functional groups. Importantly, the obtained iodinated products could be incorporated into different drugs and natural products, and could be expediently converted into many other valuable gem-difluoroalkyl molecules as well. Mechanistic studies revealed that this reaction went through a regioselective fluorination of alkynes followed by a formal 1,3-fluorine migration under the assistance of the B–F reagents to give the desired products.

Nickel-Catalyzed Reductive Allyl−Aryl Cross-Electrophile Coupling via Allylic C−F Bond Activation

Nickel-catalyzed reductive cross-coupling of allylic difluorides with aryl iodides was achieved via allylic C−F bond activation. Based on this protocol, a series of γ-arylated monofluoroalkenes were synthesized in moderate to high yields with high Z-selectivities. Mechanistic studies suggest that the C−I bonds of the aryl iodides and the C−F bonds of the allylic difluorides were cleaved via oxidative addition and β-fluorine elimination, respectively, where the oxidative addition of less reactive C−F bonds was avoided to permit their transformation.

Ir‐Catalysed Asymmetric Allylic Substitutions with Cyclometalated (Phosphoramidite)Ir Complexes—Resting States,Catalytically Active (π‐Allyl)Ir Complexes and Computational Exploration

Mechanistic aspects of allylic substitutions with iridium catalysts derived from phosphoramidites by cyclometalation were investigated. The determination of resting states by ³¹P NMR spectroscopy led to the conclusion that the cyclometalation process is reversible. A novel, one‐pot procedure for the preparation of (π‐ allyl)Ir complexes was developed, and these complexes were characterised by X‐ray crystal structure analyses and spectral data. They are fully active catalysts of the allylic substitution reaction. DFT calculations on the allyl complexes, transition states of the allylic substitution and product olefin complexes gave further mechanistic insight.

Novel anti-Markovnikov regioselectivity in the Wacker reaction of styrenes

The Wacker reaction is one of the longest known palladium-catalysed organic transformations, and in the vast majority of cases proceeds with Markovnikov regioselectivity. Palladium(II)-mediated oxidation of styrenes was examined and in the absence of reoxidants was found to proceed in an anti-Markovnikov sense, giving aldehydes. Studies on the mechanism of this unusual transformation were carried out, and indicate the possible involvement of a eta(4)-palladium-styrene complex. With a heteropolyacid as the terminal oxidant, oxidation of styrene to give the anti-Markovnikov aldehyde as the major product was found to be catalytic.     

Gold‐Catalysed Oxyarylation of Styrenes and Mono‐ and gem‐Disubstituted Olefins Facilitated by an Iodine(III) Oxidant

1‐Hydroxy‐1,2‐benziodoxol‐3(1H)‐one (IBA) is an efficient terminal oxidant for gold‐catalysed, three‐component oxyarylation reactions. The use of this iodine(III) reagent expands the scope of oxyarylation to include styrenes and gem‐disubstituted olefins, substrates that are incompatible with the previously reported Selectfluor‐based methodology. Diverse arylsilane coupling partners can be employed, and in benzotrifluoride, homocoupling is substantially reduced. In addition, the IBA‐derived co‐products can be recovered and recycled.
