Article Abstract

We have developed a method for Pd-catalyzed direct C-H arylation of quinoline-8-carbaldehydes with either aryl iodides or aryl diazonium salts for the synthesis of aryl quinolinyl ketones. Aryl iodide substituted with an electron-donating group favors the reaction, whereas aryl diazonium salt substituted with an electron-withdrawing group showed excellent reactivity. A range of aryl quinolinyl ketones were synthesized in good-to-excellent yields, with very good functional group tolerance. Our methodology was successfully applied to synthesize highly potent tubulin polymerization inhibitors and can be easily scaled up to a gram scale.

Photofunctionalization of Light Alkanes by FeO/BCN at 12 °C.

The activation of methane and other gaseous hydrocarbons at low temperature remains a substantial challenge for the chemistry community. Here, we report an anaerobic photosystem based on crystalline borocarbonitride (BCN) supported Fe-O nanoclusters, which can selectively functionalize C-H bonds of methane, ethane, and higher alkanes to value-added organic chemicals at 12 °C. Scanning transmission electron microscopy and X-ray absorption spectroscopy corroborated the ultrafine FeOOH and FeO species in Fe-O clusters, which enhanced the interfacial charge transfer/separation of BCN as well as the chemisorption of methane.

A Pd-mediated C-H activation methodology was developed for the direct arylation of quinoidal skeletons, both by means of homogeneous catalysis and heterogeneous catalysis using metal-decorated carbon nanotubes, enabling the direct functionalization of quinones in moderate to excellent yields. The derivatives obtained were tested against trypomastigote forms of , showing promising biological activity.

Supported Pd Nanoparticles with a Metallic and Oxidized Multisite for Sustainable Suzuki-Miyaura-Type C-H Arylation.

Here, we demonstrated that γ-AlO-supported palladium nanoparticles containing dominant metallic-state Pd sites and charged Pd (Pd and Pd) sites are a highly active, selective, and stable heterogeneous catalyst for a variety of Suzuki-Miyaura-type C(sp)-H or C(sp)-H arylation reactions, resulting in a high cumulative turnover number (TON) of 226 after 6 runs. Multi-technique characterization data, including X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) analyses, showed that both the strong metal-support interaction (SMSI) with Pd-O coordination and the fitting increase of metal-metal bonds after reaction efficiently limit Pd leaching and Pd aggregates. The support concerted metalation-deprotonation (SCMD) effect of Pd/γ-AlO is more favorable for the proceeding of the Pd/Pd catalytic cycle at the microenvironment.

Halogen atom transfer (XAT) and single electron transfer (SET) have emerged as versatile tools for the generation of aryl radicals. The intrinsic reactivity of these methods is governed by bond dissociation energies (BDEs) and reduction potentials, respectively, which typically favor activation of an aryl iodide over an aryl bromide. To date, no existing methods have overturned these inherent reactivity trends.
