The direct functionalization of C? H bonds is an attractive strategy in organic synthesis. Although several advances have been made in this area, the selective activation of inert sp3 C? H bonds remains a daunting challenge. Recently, a new type of sp3 C? H activation mode through internal hydride transfer has demonstrated the potential to activate remote sp3 C? H linkages in an atom‐economic manner. This Minireview attempts to classify recent advances in this area including the transition to non‐activated sp3 C? H bonds and asymmetric hydride transfers. 相似文献
Electrochemical and photophysical analysis of new donor–acceptor systems 2 and 3 , in which a benzothiadiazole (BTD) unit is covalently linked to a tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) core, have verified that the lowest excited state can be ascribed to an intramolecular‐charge‐transfer (ICT) π(TTF)→π*(benzothiadiazole) transition. Owing to better overlap of the HOMO and LUMO in the fused scaffold of compound 3 , the intensity of the 1ICT band is substantially higher compared to that in compound 2 . The corresponding CT fluorescence is also observed in both cases. The radical cation TTF+. is easily observed through chemical and electrochemical oxidation by performing steady‐state absorption experiments. Interestingly, compound 2 is photo‐oxidized under aerobic conditions. 相似文献
Direct ruthenium‐catalyzed C C coupling of alkynes and vicinal diols to form β,γ‐unsaturated ketones occurs with complete levels of regioselectivity and good to complete control over the alkene geometry. Exposure of the reaction products to substoichiometric quantities of p‐toluenesulfonic acid induces cyclodehydration to form tetrasubstituted furans. These alkyne‐diol hydrohydroxyalkylations contribute to a growing body of merged redox‐construction events that bypass the use of premetalated reagents and, hence, stoichiometric quantities of metallic by‐products. 相似文献
Density functional calculations on a mu-oxo-mu-peroxodiiron complex (1) with a tetrapodal ligand BPP (BPP=N,N-bis(2-pyridylmethyl)-3-aminopropionate) are presented that is a biomimetic of the active site region of ribonucleotide reductase (RNR). We have studied all low-lying electronic states and show that it has close-lying broken-shell singlet and undecaplet (S=0, 5) ground states with essentially two sextet spin iron atoms. In strongly distorted electronic systems in which the two iron atoms have different spin states, the peroxo group moves considerably out of the plane of the mu-oxodiiron group due to orbital rearrangements. The calculated absorption spectra of (1,11)1 are in good agreement with experimental studies on biomimetics and RNR enzyme systems. Moreover, vibrational shifts in the spectrum due to (18)O(2) substitution of the oxygen atoms in the peroxo group follow similar trends as experimental observations. To identify whether the mu-oxo-mu-1,2-peroxodiiron or the mu-oxo-mu-1,1-peroxodiiron complexes are able to epoxidize substrates, we studied the reactivity patterns versus propene. Generally, the reactions are stepwise via radical intermediates and proceed by two-state reactivity patterns on competing singlet and undecaplet spin state surfaces. However, both the mu-oxo-mu-1,2-peroxodiiron and mu-oxo-mu-1,1-peroxodiiron complex are sluggish oxidants with high epoxidation barriers. The epoxidation barriers for the mu-oxo-mu-1,1-peroxodiiron complex are significantly lower than the ones for the mu-oxo-mu-1,2-peroxodiiron complex but still are too high to be considered for catalytic properties. Thus, theory has ruled out two possible peroxodiiron catalysts as oxidants in RNR enzymes and biomimetics and the quest to find the actual oxidant in the enzyme mechanism continues. 相似文献
Reaction conditions for the C? C cross‐coupling of O6‐alkyl‐2‐bromo‐ and 2‐chloroinosine derivatives with aryl‐, hetaryl‐, and alkylboronic acids were studied. Optimization experiments with silyl‐protected 2‐bromo‐O6‐methylinosine led to the identification of [PdCl2(dcpf)]/K3PO4 in 1,4‐dioxane as the best conditions for these reactions (dcpf=1,1′‐bis(dicyclohexylphosphino)ferrocene). Attempted O6‐demethylation, as well as the replacement of the C‐6 methoxy group by amines, was unsuccessful, which led to the consideration of Pd‐cleavable groups such that C? C cross‐coupling and O6‐deprotection could be accomplished in a single step. Thus, inosine 2‐chloro‐O6‐allylinosine was chosen as the substrate and, after re‐evaluation of the cross‐coupling conditions with 2‐chloro‐O6‐methylinosine as a model substrate, one‐step C? C cross‐coupling/deprotection reactions were performed with the O6‐allyl analogue. These reactions are the first such examples of a one‐pot procedure for the modification and deprotection of purine nucleosides under C? C cross‐coupling conditions. 相似文献
Iron man or weakling? Ligand‐field strengths are conveniently expressed by the empirical spectrochemical series. Although cyanide has been deeply entrenched as a strong‐field ligand, a couple of recent examples cast doubt toward the position of this ligand, namely the high‐spin (S=2) states of [CrII(CN)5]3? and [FeII(tpp)(CN)]?. tpp=meso‐tetraphenylporphinate.
Thirty years after their introduction, monolithic stationary phases are an important member of chromatographic phases. When compared to conventional particulate materials, the continuous internal structure of both inorganic silica and organic polymer monoliths allows some hydrodynamic and analytical possibilities that are not provided by conventional particulate stationary phases. Polymer‐based monolithic stationary phases offer simple preparation and straightforward surface modification, which makes them very versatile materials that are applicable, for example, as chromatographic stationary phases, sample enrichment units, enzymatic reactors, and external trigger‐responding materials. On the other hand, current polymer monoliths cannot compete with efficiency provided by superficially porous and sub 2 µm particles. In this highlight article, I take advantage of the 30th anniversary of their introduction to discuss several concerns related to polymer‐based monolithic stationary phases. Particularly, I focus on preparation repeatability, porous properties, swelling of the polymers in organic solvents, column efficiency for small molecules, and heterogeneity of dominant flow‐through pores. In the end, I offer three possible approaches on how to overcome drawbacks related to stationary phases heterogeneity to further increase the applicability of polymer‐based monolithic stationary phases. 相似文献
Protocols with starch? sulfuric acid (SSA) as reusable catalyst for the synthesis of aryl‐1H‐pyrazoles are described. SSA acted as an efficient and environmentally friendly catalyst for the regioselective condensation of Baylis? Hillman adducts 1 with phenylhydrazine hydrochloride leading to the new 1,5‐diaryl‐1H‐pyrazole 2a – 2e in excellent yields (Scheme and Table 1). 相似文献
A palladium‐catalyzed C H arylation of aliphatic amines with arylboronic esters is described, proceeding through a four‐membered‐ring cyclopalladation pathway. Crucial to the successful outcome of this reaction is the action of an amino‐acid‐derived ligand. A range of hindered secondary amines and arylboronic esters are compatible with this process and the products of the arylation can be advanced to complex polycyclic molecules by sequential C H activation reactions. 相似文献
A new and efficient synthesis of 2‐[1‐alkyl‐5,6‐bis(alkoxycarbonyl)‐1,2,3,4‐tetrahydro‐2‐oxopyridin‐3‐yl]acetic acid derivatives by a one‐pot three‐component reaction between primary amine, dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylate, and itaconic anhydride (=3,4‐dihydro‐3‐methylidenefuran‐2,5‐dione) is reported. The reaction was performed without catalyst and under solvent‐free conditions with excellent yields. Notably, the ready availability of the starting materials, and the high level of practicability of the reaction and workup make this approach an attractive complementary method to access to unknown 2‐[1‐alkyl‐5,6‐bis(alkoxycarbonyl)‐1,2,3,4‐tetrahydro‐2‐oxopyridin‐3‐yl]acetic acid derivatives. The structures were corroborated spectroscopically (IR, 1H‐ and 13C‐NMR, and EI‐MS) and by elemental analyses. A plausible mechanism for this type of domino Michael addition? cyclization reaction is proposed (Scheme 2). 相似文献
