New methods and reagents for carbon-fluorine bond formation

Pfeifer, Lukas January 2016 (has links)
After a general introduction about the properties and preparation of organofluorine compounds (Chapter 1), this thesis is divided into two parts focussing on the development of new methods for C-F bond formation (Part A) as well as studies towards the development of novel fluorinating reagents (Part B). Part A: New Methods for Carbon-Fluorine Bond Formation Part A consists of two chapters outlining the development of a Pd-catalysed hydrofluorination of alkenylarenes (Chapter 2) as well as a halofluorination of alkynes (Chapter 3). Chapter 2 This chapter describes the development of a novel, regioselective, syn-specific hydrofluorination of alkenylarenes under Pd-catalysis leading to the formation of benzylic fluorides. An extensive substrate scope is presented together with a model of the catalytic cycle, based on observations during the development of this reaction, deuterium labelling experiments as well as mechanistic control experiments starting from isolated palladacycles. Chapter 3 In this chapter the development of a novel iodo- as well as bromofluorination of internal and terminal alkynes, leading to the formation of (E)-halofluoroalkenes, is presented. For the former substrate class, the effects of steric as well as electronic bias on regioselectivity are discussed. For the latter substrate class, this methodology could be extended to the corresponding double iodofluorination, and for both transformations it was found to exclusively lead to the fluorination of the internal carbon. An extensive substrate scope as well as different iodofluorination-cross-coupling sequences including Suzuki, Sonogashira and Ullmann couplings, are illustrated. A representative reaction was successfully carried out on gram-scale and an iodofluorination-Suzuki-coupling sequence was used to prepare a fluorinated tamoxifen derivative. Part B: Hydrogen-Bonded Fluoride Complexes as Novel Reagents for Carbon-Fluorine Bond Formation Part B consists of two chapters describing structural as well as reactivity studies of fluoride-alcohol (Chapter 4) and fluoride-urea complexes (Chapter 5). Chapter 4 In this chapter the synthesis of 19 novel hydrogen-bonded tetraalkylammonium fluoride-alcohol complexes is described. For a subset of 15, the solid-state structures as determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction experiments are presented. Trends of reactivity and selectivity were determined using these complexes as sources of fluoride anion in a model SN2 reaction. Preliminary results from in silico modelling of the fluoride-alcohol system provide a basis for explaining the results. Chapter 5 This chapter summarises the synthesis and solid-state structures of 20 hydrogen-bonded fluoride complexes using the urea and related squaramide and amide motifs. Also, the size of the tetraalkylammonium counter-cation was varied to study the influence on the solid-state structure. The reactivity and selectivity of a series of complexes was studied using the same model SN2 reaction as in Chapter 4 and results were compared accordingly. Different UV-vis and NMR spectroscopic techniques were used to study the behaviour of the fluoride-urea system in solution. Preliminary results demonstrate the use of 1,3-diarylureas as organocatalysts for nucleophilic fluorination.

New strategies for the synthesis and functionalization of aliphatic amines

Trowbridge, Aaron Daniel January 2019 (has links)
The invention of catalytic processes that convert feedstock chemicals into pharmacologically-privileged amines is a landmark challenge in organic synthesis. This thesis describes the development of three novel transition-metal catalyzed processes for the synthesis of alkylamines that attempts to meet this challenge. The first Pd-catalyzed methylene β-C−H carbonylation of alkylamines to form substituted β-lactams is reported. Through the synergistic use of a Pd-catalyst and Xanpthos ligand, secondary amines underwent exclusive methylene β-C−H activation in high yields and diastereoselectivities. Subsequently, the development of a remarkably selective methylene β-C−H carbonylation of α-tertiary amines (ATAs), is detailed. This methodology enables the C−H carbonylation of methylene C−H bonds over traditionally more reactive methyl and C(sp2)−H bonds. Importantly, a range of functional groups previously incompatible with C−H technologies were tolerated in good yields. Finally, the development of a novel multicomponent synthesis of tertiary amines is described. The novel photocatalytic single-electron reduction of alkyl iminium ions furnishes -amino radicals that engage alkenes forming a new C-C bond. The reaction exhibits broad functional group tolerance and enables the synthesis of amines not readily accessible by existing methods.

Bifunctional Enamine‐Metal Lewis Acid Catalysis and α-Enaminones for Cyclization Reactions

Davis, Jacqkis 08 1900 (has links)
The use of enamines continues to be an important tool in organic syntheses as both a catalyst and reactant. The addition of metal catalysts coupled with enamine catalysis has generated many reactions that normally would not occur separately. However, catalysts' incompatibility is an issue that we wish to solve allowing new chemistry to occur without hindrance. The use of enamines has continued to be a well-studied area of organic chemistry, but the field is ripe for different types of enamines to gain the spotlight. Enaminones are enamines with both nucleophilic and electrophilic properties. They allow reactions that are normally not possible with enamines to become obtainable. Chapter 1 is a brief introduction on enamines and the reason they gained so much attention. Then ends with enaminones and what makes them interesting reactants. Chapter 2 described a new synthesis for the tricyclic synthesis of chromanes using a novel bifunctional catalyst system of enamine-metal Lewis acid giving great yields (up to 87 %yield) and excellent stereoselectivity (up to 99 % ee). Chapter 3 covered new reactions for ring-open cyclopropane (up to 94% yield), tetrahydroquinolinones (up to 84% yield) and enantiospecific tetrahydroquinolinones (up to 84% yield and 97% ee) using α-enaminone and donor-acceptor cyclopropanes. Finally, Chapter 4 focused a new method for synthesizing benzobicyclo[3.2.1]octanes with an added sterically bulky quaternary center and imine functionalization giving yields between 36-73% yield using α-enaminone with alkylidene malonates.

Late-stage fluorination and perfluoroalkylation

Ó Dúill, Miriam Leslie January 2015 (has links)
In this thesis new synthetic routes towards perfluorinated compounds are described, as well as their radiolabelling with fluorine-18, with the aim of application in pharmaceutically interesting targets. Part A investigates late-stage fluorination, i.e. retrosynthetic C–F bond disconnections. A silver catalysed electrophilic fluorodecarboxylation of fluorinated carboxylic acids for the formation of difluoromethyl-, trifluoromethyl-, and pentafluoroethylarenes is developed and transferred to a radiochemistry setting using [<sup>18</sup>F]Selectfluor bis(triflate). Part B explores late-stage perfluoroalkylation via cross-coupling strategies. The use of visible light-mediated ruthenium catalysis is investigated for the radical trifluoromethylation and pentafluoroethylation of vinyl- and alkynylsilanes and alkynes. Finally, the first generally applicable copper-mediated cross-coupling of Ruppert-Prakash-like aryl(tetrafluoroethyl)trimethylsilanes (ArCF2CF2SiMe3) is presented.

Etude de la réactivité de quelques allylphosphonates β-éthoxycarbonylés / Study of the reactivity of some β-ethoxycarbonylated allylphosphonates

Abdelli, Abderrahmen 02 June 2016 (has links)
La présence conjointe de plusieurs fonctions confère aux allylphosphonates β-éthoxycarbonylés une réactivité particulière. Ces derniers sont considérés comme d’excellents précurseurs pour l’accès à de nouveaux composés organophosphorés. Dans le présent travail, nous avons décrit, dans un premier temps, l’utilisation de ces adduits entant qu’accepteurs de Michael. En effet, nous avons effectué des additions conjuguées d ethiols, d’amines et d’anions énolates dans des conditions réactionnelles douces. Ces allylphosphonates ont été également utilisés pour la préparation d’une nouvelle famille de γ-lactames α,β-instaurés phosphono-méthylés.L’étape clé de cette synthèse est une addition conjuguée de nitroalcanes sur les allylphosphonates suivie d’une réaction de Nef..Les cétoesters ainsi obtenus sont convertis en lactames par action d’amines primaires. Des réactions d’arylations pallado-catalysées sur les allyphosphonates ont permis l’accès à des hétérocycles phosphonatés dérivant de lacoumarine, de la quinoléine et de la benzoxépinone. La synthèse de P-hétérocyclesde différentes tailles à partir des allylphosphonates a été aussi possible par la conversion du groupe phosphonate en phosphorochloridate. La réactivité de ce dernier vis-à-vis de différentes amines, a permis d’isoler une nouvelle famille de N,Phétérocyclesà 5, 7, 8 et 9 chaînons. La synthèse de P-hétérocycles à 6 chainons a été également décrite en réalisant des cyclisations dans les conditions de métathèse cyclisante (RCM) à partir d’un bisallylphosphonate et d’un bisallylphosphoramidate issus des mêmes précurseurs. / Due to the joint presence of several functional groups, β-ethoxycarbonylatedallylphosphonates are considered as excellent precursors for the preparation of neworganophosphorus compounds. In the presentwork, we first described the use of suchphosphonates as Michael acceptors. Indeed, weperformed conjugated additions of thiols,amines and enolate-anion under mild reactionconditions. Allylphosphonates were also usedfor the preparation of a new family of phosphonomethyl α,β-unsaturated γ-lactams.The key step of this sequence is a conjugateaddition of nitroalkanes on allylphosphonates followed by a Nef reaction. Ketoester intermediaites were then convertedinto lactams by reaction with primary amines.Pd-catalyzed arylations on allylphosphonates allowed preparing phosphonated heterocyclesderived from coumarin, quinolinone andbenzoxepinone skeletons. The synthesis of Pheterocyclesof various sizes fromallylphosphonates was explored by theconversion of phosphonate inphosphorochloridate. The reactivity of the latterwith amines, allowed isolation of a new familyof 5-,7-, 8- and 9-membered N,P-heterocycles.The synthesis of 6-membered P-heterocycleshas also been described by performingcyclization under the conditions of a ringclosing metathesis (RCM) starting from bisallylphosphonates and bisallylphosphoramidates.

Enantioselective Synthesis of Tertiary Boronic Esters Through Conjunctive Cross-Coupling and Cyclobutene Diboration:

Zhang, Xuntong January 2024 (has links)
Thesis advisor: Marc M. Snapper / Thesis advisor: James J. Morken / This dissertation will present three main projects focusing on the catalytic enantioselective synthesis and stereospecific functionalization of tertiary alkylboronates. In the first project, acyl chlorides were incorporated as a new class of electrophile in conjunctive cross-coupling, from which, a variety of tertiary β-boryl amides were successfully synthesized with high enantioselectivity. The utility of the tertiary alkylboronates products was also demonstrated through several orthogonal functionalizations of the boronic ester group and amide groups. The project culminated in the enantioselective total synthesis of natural product (+)-adalinine that leveraged this newly developed methodology. In the second project, a conjunctive cross-coupling enabled ring closure was developed to synthesize tertiary alkylboronates residing on carbocyclic and heterocyclic scaffolds. A Phosphinooxazoline (Phox) ligand was identified as a non-expensive ligand that catalyzed the conjunctive cyclization reaction with high enantioselectivity. A Series of synthetically challenging enantimerically enriched spirocyclic and aryl bicyclic tertiary alkylboronates were efficiently generated using this method, and several cyclopentyl boronic esters with two continuous stereogenic centers were synthesized with high diastereoselectivity. In the third project, a Rh-catalyzed diboration reaction was successfully employed to diborate monosubstituted cyclobutenes with excellent enantioselectivity. The less sterically hindered secondary boronic ester units in the diboron products can be regioselectively functionalized using the newly developed tert-butyllithium activation-transmetallation strategy. As a result, a variety of stereochemically defined β-substituted cyclobutyl tertiary boronic esters were synthesized with high efficiency. / Thesis (PhD) — Boston College, 2024. / Submitted to: Boston College.
