Direct photocatalyzed hydrogen atom transfer (d-HAT) can be considered a method of choice for the elaboration aliphatic C–H bonds. In this manifold, photocatalyst (PCHAT) exploits energy photon to trigger homolytic cleavage such bonds in organic compounds. Selective bond may achieved by judicious abstractor (key parameters are electronic character and molecular structure), as well reaction additives. Different classes PCsHAT available, including aromatic ketones, xanthene dyes (Eosin Y), polyoxometalates, uranyl salts, metal-oxo porphyrin tris(amino)cyclopropenium radical dication.

Recent progress in cathodic reduction-enabled organic electrosynthesis: Trends, challenges, and opportunities

eScience, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 2(3), С. 243 - 277

Опубликована: Апрель 23, 2022

Compared with general redox chemistry, electrochemistry using the electron as a potent, controllable, yet traceless alternative to chemical oxidants/reductants usually offers more sustainable options for achieving selective organic synthesis. With its environmentally benign features gradually being uncovered and studied, electrosynthesis is currently undergoing revival becoming rapidly growing area within synthetic community. Among electrochemical transformations, anodically enabled ones have been far extensively exploited than those driven by cathodic reduction, although both approaches are conceptually attractive. To stimulate development of cathodically reactions, this review summarizes recently developed reductive electrosynthetic protocols, discussing highlighting reaction features, substrate scopes, applications, plausible mechanisms reveal recent trends in area. Herein, reduction-enabled preparative transformations categorized into four types: reduction (1) unsaturated hydrocarbons, (2) heteroatom-containing carbon-based systems, (3) saturated C-hetero or C–C polar/strained bonds, (4) hetero-hetero linkages. Apart from net electroreductive few examples photo-electrosynthesis well paired electrolysis also introduced, which offer opportunities overcome certain limitations improve versatility. The electrochemically driven, transition metal-catalyzed cross-couplings that comprehensively discussed several other reviews not included here.

The formation of carbon-carbon bonds lies at the heart synthetic organic chemistry and is widely applied to construct complex drugs, polymers, materials. Despite its importance, catalytic carbonyl arylation remains comparatively underdeveloped, due limited scope functional group tolerance. Herein we disclose an umpolung strategy achieve radical via dual catalysis. This redox-neutral approach provides a complementary method Grignard-type products from (hetero)aryl bromides aliphatic aldehydes, without need for pre-functionalization. A sequential activation, hydrogen-atom transfer, halogen atom transfer process could directly convert aldehydes corresponding ketyl-type radicals, which further react with aryl-nickel intermediates in overall polarity-reversal process. tolerates─among others─acidic groups, heteroaryl motifs, sterically hindered substrates has been late-stage modification drugs natural products.

Ketone–Olefin Coupling of Aliphatic and Aromatic Carbonyls Catalyzed by Excited-State Acridine Radicals

Journal of the American Chemical Society, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 144(26), С. 11888 - 11896

Опубликована: Июнь 23, 2022

Ketone–olefin coupling reactions are common methods for the formation of carbon–carbon bonds. This reaction class typically requires stoichiometric or super quantities metal reductants, and catalytic variations limited in application. Photoredox catalysis has offered an alternative method toward ketone–olefin reactions, although most scope to easily reducible aromatic carbonyl compounds. Herein, we describe a mild, metal-free using excited-state acridine radical reductant as photoredox catalyst. We demonstrate both intramolecular intermolecular couplings aliphatic ketones aldehydes. Mechanistic evidence is also presented supporting "olefin first" mechanism.
