Aerobic Oxidative N-Heterocyclic Carbene Catalysis

The ease with which simple starting materials can be transformed into highly functionalized products has made oxidative N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalysis an area of significant interest. However, the use of stoichiometric amounts of high molecular weight oxidants in most reactions generates an undesired equivalent amount of waste. To address this issue, the use of oxygen as the terminal oxidant in NHC catalysis has been developed. Oxygen is attractive due to its low cost, low molecular weight, and ability to generate water as the sole by-product. However, molecular oxygen is challenging to use as a reagent in organic synthesis due to its unreactive ground state, which often requires reactions to be run at high temperatures and results in the formation of kinetic side-products. This review covers the development of aerobic oxidative carbene catalysis, including NHC-catalyzed reactions with oxygen, strategies for oxygen activation, and selectivity issues under aerobic conditions.     

Trinuclear Pd3O2 Intermediate in Aerobic Oxidation Catalysis

The activation of O₂ is a key step in selective catalytic aerobic oxidation reactions mediated by transition metals. The bridging trinuclear palladium species, [(LPd^II)₃(μ³‐O)₂]²⁺ (L=2,9‐dimethylphenanthroline), was identified during the [LPd(OAc)]₂(OTf)₂‐catalyzed aerobic oxidation of 1,2‐propanediol. Independent synthesis, structural characterization, and catalytic studies of the trinuclear compound show that it is a product of oxygen activation by reduced palladium species and is a competent intermediate in the catalytic aerobic oxidation of alcohols. The formation and catalytic activity of the trinuclear Pd₃O₂ species illuminates a multinuclear pathway for aerobic oxidation reactions catalyzed by Pd complexes.     

Asymmetric Catalytic [4+5] Annulation of ortho-Quinone Methides with Vinylethylene Carbonates and its Extension to Stereoselective Tandem Rearrangement

Palladium-catalyzed asymmetric [4+5] annulation of ortho-quinone methides (o-QMs) with substituted vinylethylene carbonates (VECs) is described for the first time, giving a novel enantioselective approach to chiral nine-membered benzoheterocycles. Based on this designed [4+5] annulation, an unprecedented silica gel-promoted tandem rearrangement reaction featuring a unique asymmetric aromatic Claisen rearrangement is explored at room temperature, offering a new method for asymmetric construction of all-carbon quaternary stereocenters embedded in chiral functionalized homoallylic alcohols.

Aerobic Dehydrogenation of N-Heterocycles with Grubbs Catalyst: Its Application to Assisted-Tandem Catalysis to Construct N-Containing Fused Heteroarenes

An aerobic dehydrogenation of nitrogen-containing heterocycles catalyzed by Grubbs catalyst is developed. The reaction is applicable to various nitrogen-containing heterocycles. The exceptionally high functional group compatibility of this method was confirmed by the oxidation of an unprotected dihydroindolactam V to indolactam V. Furthermore, by taking advantage of the oxygen-mediated structural change of the Grubbs catalyst, we integrated ring-closing metathesis and subsequent aerobic dehydrogenation to develop the novel assisted-tandem catalysis using molecular oxygen as a chemical trigger. The utility of the assisted-tandem catalysis was demonstrated by the concise synthesis of N-containing fused heteroarenes including a natural antibiotic, pyocyanine.

Visible‐Light‐Induced Photoredox Catalysis of Dye‐Sensitized Titanium Dioxide: Selective Aerobic Oxidation of Organic Sulfides

TiO₂ photoredox catalysis has recently attracted much interest for use in performing challenging organic transformations under mild reaction conditions. However, the reaction scheme is hampered by the fact that TiO₂ can only be excited by UV light of wavelengths λ shorter than 385 nm. One promising strategy to overcome this issue is to anchor an organic, preferably metal‐free dye onto the surface of TiO₂. Importantly, we observed that the introduction of a catalytic amount of the redox mediator TEMPO [(2,2,6,6‐tetramethylpiperidin‐1‐yl)oxyl] ensured the stability of the anchored dye, alizarin red S, thereby resulting in the selective oxidation of organic sulfides with O₂. This result affirms the essential role of the redox mediator in enabling the organic transformations by visible‐light photoredox catalysis.     

Synergistic Rhodium/Phosphoric Acid Catalysis for the Enantioselective Addition of Oxonium Ylides to ortho‐Quinone Methides

We report herein a powerful and highly stereoselective protocol for the domino‐type reaction of diazoesters with ortho‐quinone methides generated in situ to furnish densely functionalized chromans with three contiguous stereogenic centers. A transition‐metal and a Brønsted acid catalyst were shown to act synergistically to produce a transient oxonium ylide and ortho‐quinone methide, respectively, in two distinct cycles. These intermediates underwent subsequent coupling in a conjugate‐addition–hemiacetalization event in generally good yield with excellent diastereo‐ and enantioselectivity.     

Cooperative Catalysis for the Highly Diastereo‐ and Enantioselective [4+3]‐Cycloannulation of ortho‐Quinone Methides and Carbonyl Ylides

We describe herein a highly diastereo‐ and enantioselective [4+3]‐cycloannulation of ortho‐quinone methides and carbonyl ylides to furnish functionalized oxa‐bridged dibenzooxacines with excellent yields and stereoselectivity in a single synthetic step. The combination of rhodium and chiral phosphoric acid catalysis working in concert to generate both transient intermediates in situ provides direct access to complex bicyclic products with two quaternary and one tertiary stereogenic centers. The products may be further functionalized into valuable and enantiomerically highly enriched building blocks.
