Zhang T, Rabeah J, Das S. Red-light-mediated copper-catalyzed photoredox catalysis promotes regioselectivity switch in the difunctionalization of alkenes. Nat Commun 2024; 15:5208. [PMID: 38890327 PMCID: PMC11189478 DOI: 10.1038/s41467-024-49514-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/30/2024] [Accepted: 06/05/2024] [Indexed: 06/20/2024] Open
Abstract
Controlling regioselectivity during difunctionalization of alkenes remains a significant challenge, particularly when the installation of both functional groups involves radical processes. In this aspect, methodologies to install trifluoromethane (-CF3) via difunctionalization have been explored, due to the importance of this moiety in the pharmaceutical sectors; however, these existing reports are limited, most of which affording only the corresponding β-trifluoromethylated products. The main reason for this limitation arises from the fact that -CF3 group served as an initiator in those reactions and predominantly preferred to be installed at the terminal (β) position of an alkene. On the contrary, functionalization of the -CF3 group at the internal (α) position of alkenes would provide valuable products, but a meticulous approach is necessary to win this regioselectivity switch. Intrigued by this challenge, we here develop an efficient and regioselective strategy where the -CF3 group is installed at the α-position of an alkene. Molecular complexity is achieved via the simultaneous insertion of a sulfonyl fragment (-SO2R) at the β-position. A precisely regulated sequence of radical generation using red light-mediated photocatalysis facilitates this regioselective switch from the terminal (β) position to the internal (α) position. Furthermore, this approach demonstrates broad substrate scope and industrial potential for the synthesis of pharmaceuticals under mild reaction conditions.

Abstract
The unique features of the sulfenamides' S(II)-N bond lead to interesting stereochemical properties and significant industrial functions. Here we present a chemoselective Chan-Lam coupling of sulfenamides to prepare N-arylated sulfenamides. A tridentate pybox ligand governs the chemoselectivity favoring C-N bond formation, and overrides the competitive C-S bond formation by preventing the S,N-bis-chelation of sulfenamides to copper center. The Cu(II)-derived resting state of catalyst is captured by UV-Vis spectra and EPR technique, and the key intermediate is confirmed by the EPR isotope response using 15N-labeled sulfenamide. A computational mechanistic study reveals that N-arylation is both kinetically and thermodynamically favorable, with deprotonation of the sulfenamide nitrogen atom occurring prior to reductive elimination. The origin of ligand-controlled chemoselectivity is explored, with the interaction between the pybox ligand and the sulfenamide substrate controlling the energy of the S-arylation and the corresponding product distribution, in agreement with the EPR studies and kinetic results.

Abstract
The introduction of trifluoromethyl groups into organic molecules is of paramount importance in modern synthetic chemistry and medicinal chemistry. While methods for constructing C(sp2 )-CF3 bonds have been well established, the advancement of practical and comprehensive approaches for forming C(sp3 )-CF3 bonds remains considerably restricted. In this work, we describe an efficient and site-specific deaminative trifluoromethylation reaction of aliphatic primary amines to afford the corresponding alkyl trifluoromethyl compounds. The reaction proceeds at room temperature with readily accessible N-anomeric amide (Levin's reagent) and bench-stable bpyCu(CF3 )3 (Grushin's reagent, bpy=2,2'-bipyridine) under blue light. The protocol features mild reaction conditions, good functional group tolerance, and moderate to good yields. Remarkably, the method can be applied to the direct, late-stage trifluoromethylation of natural products and bioactive molecules. Experimental mechanistic studies were conducted, and a radical mechanism is proposed, wherein the dual roles of Grushin's reagent have been elucidated.

Abstract
This study reports sequential dehydrogenation and transfer oxygenation of 1,2-diarylepoxides by high-valent phenCu(III)(CF3)3 and DMSO to produce 1,2-diketones. The Cu(III)-CF3 compound serves as a CF3 radical source to abstract the hydrogen atom of the epoxide ring. The resulting ether α-carbon radical undergoes ring-opening rearrangement to give a ketone α-carbon radical intermediate, which is oxygenated by DMSO with the release of Me2S. The combination of a Cu(III)-CF3 compound and DMSO may be exploited to develop other novel oxidation reactions.

Abstract
1,4-Disubstituted cubyl aryl thioethers were generated from the corresponding iodocubanes and aryl thiolates upon UV irradiation in dimethyl sulfoxide at room temperature. This simple procedure was found to be compatible with a variety of substituted aryl thiolates. This finding paved the way to a synthesis of the monocubyl analogue of dapsone, a key molecule in the treatment of leprosy, also known as Hansen's disease, and of acne.

Abstract
In this paper, we theoretically investigated spectral physics on Cu(III) complexes formed by the oxidative addition of α-haloacetonitrile to ionic and neutral Cu(I) complexes, stimulated by recent experimental reports. Firstly, the electronic structures of reactants of α-haloacetonitrile and neutral Cu(I) and two kinds of products of Cu(III) complexes are visualized with the density of state (DOS) and orbital energy levels of HOMO and LUMO. The visually manifested static and dynamic polarizability as well as the first hyperpolarizability are employed to reveal the vibrational modes of the normal and resonance Raman spectra of two Cu(III) complexes. The nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra are not only used to identify the reactants and products but also to distinguish between two Cu(III) complexes. The charge difference density (CDD) reveals intramolecular charge transfer in electronic transitions in optical absorption spectra. The CDDs in fluorescence visually reveal electron-hole recombination. Our results promote a deeper understanding of the physical mechanism of stable Cu(III) produced by the oxidative addition of an alkyl halide.

Abstract
AgIII compounds are considered strong oxidizers of difficult handling. Accordingly, the involvement of Ag catalysts in cross-coupling via 2e- redox sequences is frequently discarded. Nevertheless, organosilver(III) compounds have been authenticated using tetradentate macrocycles or perfluorinated groups as supporting ligands, and since 2014, first examples of cross-coupling enabled by AgI /AgIII redox cycles saw light. This review collects the most relevant contributions to this field, with main focus on aromatic fluorination/perfluoroalkylation and the identification of AgIII key intermediates. Pertinent comparison between the activity of AgIII RF compounds in aryl-F and aryl-CF3 couplings vs. the one shown by its CuIII RF and AuIII RF congeners is herein disclosed, thus providing a more profound picture on the scope of these transformations and the pathways commonly associated to C-RF bond formations enabled by coinage metals.

Abstract
In the last few years, many reagents and protocols have been developed to allow for the efficient fluorofunctionalization of a diverse set of scaffolds ranging from alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, and (hetero)arenes. The concomitant rise of organofluorine chemistry and visible light-mediated synthesis have synergistically expanded the fields and have mutually benefitted from developments in both fields. In this context, visible light driven formations of radicals containing fluorine have been a major focus for the discovery of new bioactive compounds. This review details the recent advances and progress made in visible light-mediated fluoroalkylation and heteroatom centered radical generation.

Abstract
A visible light-induced diastereoselective synthesis of trifluoromethylated cyclobutane derivatives is described, consisting of [2+2]-photocycloaddition and water-assisted hydrodebromination by one pot. Quinolinones, isoquinolinones, and coumarins are able to participate in this one-pot process with 1-bromo-1-trifluoromethylethene. In addition, stereodefined trisubstituted trifluoromethylated cyclobutane alcohols, carboxylic acids, and amines can be obtained in a straightforward manner through the ring opening of lactone or lactam without the loss of original high diastereoselectivity given by the water-tristrimethylsilylsilane coordination. The antineoplastic bioactivities of those compounds are also well studied, which exhibit great antineoplastic potential comparable to cisplatin. In the proposed mechanism, thioxanthone (TX) serves as a dual catalyst and a radical chain pathway may be involved in the hydrodebromination process.

Abstract
The first enantioselective radical trifluoromethylation of benzylic C-H bonds has been established by a cooperative photoredox and copper catalysis system, providing straightforward access to structurally diverse benzylic trifluoromethylation products in good yields with excellent enantioselectivities under mild conditions. Our method features a broad substrate scope and excellent functional group compatibility. Merging the cooperative photoredox catalysis with copper catalysis is essential for the reaction, where the photoredox catalysis is used for the generation of benzylic radicals from alkyl arenes through a hydrogen atom transfer process and the copper catalysis is used for the enantioselective trifluoromethylation of the benzylic radicals.

Abstract
Deoxy-functionalization of alcohols represents a class of reactions that has had a profound impact on modern medicine. In particular, deoxyfluorination is commonly employed as a means to incorporate high-value fluorine atoms into drug-like molecules. Recently, the trifluoromethyl (CF3) group has garnered attention from medicinal chemists due to its ability to markedly improve the pharmaceutical properties of small-molecule drug candidates. To date, however, there remains no general means to accomplish the analogous deoxygenative trifluoromethylation of alcohols. We report herein a copper metallaphotoredox-mediated direct deoxytrifluoromethylation, wherein alcohol substrates are activated in situ by benzoxazolium salts for C(sp3)-CF3 bond formation.

Abstract
Trifluoromethylation reaction is one of the significant and practical organic chemical reactions, and the design and discovery of novel trifluoromethylation reagents have been attracting more and more attention. Trifluoromethyl-substituted organic hydride compounds (XH) have the potential to be novel trifluoromethylation reagents in organic synthesis due to the favorable tendency of XH˙+ releasing ˙CF3 to form stable aromatic structures in terms of thermodynamics. The key elementary step of the trifluoromethylation is the radical cation (XH˙+) generation by catalysis or single-electron activation releasing ˙CF3 to form a stable aromatic structure, which also provides the thermodynamic driving force of the chemical process. In this work, 47 new trifluoromethylation reagent candidates of XHs were designed and calculated for the Gibbs free energy and activation free energy [ΔG‡RD(XH˙+)] of XH˙+ releasing ˙CF3 using the density functional theory (DFT) method, in order to quantitatively measure the reactivity of XHs as trifluoromethylation reagents, and to establish the molecular library as well as reactivity database of novel trifluoromethylation reagents for synthetic chemists. According to the and ΔG‡RD(XH˙+) values, all the XHs can be reasonably divided into 3 classes, including class 1 (excellent trifluoromethylation reagents), class 2 (potential trifluoromethylation reagents) and class 3 (not trifluoromethylation reagents). To our delight, 15 XHs with a 1,4-dihydropyridine structure and 3 XHs with a 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2-one structure are identified to be novel excellent and potential trifluoromethylation reagents, respectively, according to their reactivity data. The relationship between the structural features, including methylation, heteroatom, substituents, conjugated structure and so on, and the reactivity of XHs as trifluoromethylation reagents are also discussed in this work. The computation results indicate that trifluoromethyl-substituted 1,4-dihydropyridine compounds and 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2-one analogues could be possible trifluoromethylation reagents in organic synthesis. This work may provide the theoretical basis and references for discovering organic hydride compounds as novel reagents for trifluoromethylation or other alkylation reactions.

Abstract
Organometallic catalysis under visible light activation is an emerging field. Activation by photosensitization or by direct light absorption of organometallic complexes can facilitate or trigger elementary steps in a catalytic cycle such as pre-catalyst reduction, oxidative addition, transmetalation and reductive elimination, as well as the ability of generating radical intermediates, widening the structural diversity offered by classical couplings. This perspective aims to highlight key examples of these light-induced or enhanced processes, with an emphasis on the underlying mechanisms involved.

Abstract
Herein, the first example using commercially available 2-bromo-3,3,3-trifluoropropene (BTP) as a radical acceptor has been reported. Taking advantage of this strategy, a wide range of secondary trifluoromethylated alkyl bromides were synthesized in good to excellent yields with broad functional group tolerance by using redox-active esters as a radical precursor. The practicality of this protocol was further demonstrated by diverse derivations and direct modification of biologically active molecules.

Abstract
The direct functionalization of C(sp3)-H bonds represents one of the most investigated approaches to develop new synthetic methodology. Among the available strategies for intermolecular C-H bond functionalization, increasing attention has been devoted to hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) based procedures promoted by radical or radical-like reagents, that offer the opportunity to introduce a large variety of atoms and groups in place of hydrogen under mild conditions. Because of the large number of aliphatic C-H bonds displayed by organic molecules, in these processes control over site-selectivity represents a crucial issue, and the associated factors have been discussed. In this review article, attention will be devoted to the role of electronic effects on C(sp3)-H bond functionalization site-selectivity. Through an analysis of the recent literature, a detailed description of the HAT reagents employed in these processes, the associated mechanistic features and the selectivity patterns observed in the functionalization of substrates of increasing structural complexity will be provided.

Abstract
The direct functionalization of C(sp3)–H bonds is an ultimately ideal synthetic strategy with high atom economy and step efficiency. However, the direct trifluoromethylation of electron-deficient heteroaryl adjacent C(sp3)–H bonds remains a formidable challenge. We have described a transient activating strategy involving a Tf-shift process and π–π stacking interaction for catalyst-free direct benzylic C(sp3)–H trifluoromethylation of azines, such as pyridine, pyrimidine, quinoline, dihydropyridinone, tetrahydroisoquinoline and tetrahydroquinazoline, with an air-stable crystalline imidazolium sulfonate reagent IMDN-Tf. This bench-stable cationic reagent offers a scalable and practical protocol for the late-stage modification of drug molecules with high site selectivity, which avoids the prefunctionalization and the use of stoichiometric metals and strong oxidants. Furthermore, comprehensive mechanistic studies revealed the determining effect of π–π stacking for the activation of azinylic C(sp3)–H bonds. Late-stage C(sp3)–H functionalization of unactivated azines: the traceless Tf switching process offers ample opportunities for site-selective derivatization of heteroaryls, allowing for the rapid increase of molecular complexity.![]()

Abstract
A novel copper-catalyzed carbonylative trifluoromethylation of unactivated alkenes has been developed. A broad range of β-trifluoromethylated carboxylic acid derivatives were prepared in moderate to excellent yields from simple alkenes with excellent regioselectivity. It is noteworthy that ethylene gas, as the simplest olefin, can also be applied directly to obtain β-trifluoromethylated amides and ester. This transformation presents the first example on carbonylative trifluoromethylation of alkenes.

Abstract
In ample variety of transformations, the presence of silver as an additive or co-catalyst is believed to be innocuous for the efficiency of the operating metal catalyst. Even though Ag additives are required often as coupling partners, oxidants or halide scavengers, its role as a catalytically competent species is widely neglected in cross-coupling reactions. Most likely, this is due to the erroneously assumed incapacity of Ag to undergo 2e- redox steps. Definite proof is herein provided for the required elementary steps to accomplish the oxidative trifluoromethylation of arenes through AgI /AgIII redox catalysis (i. e. CEL coupling), namely: i) easy AgI /AgIII 2e- oxidation mediated by air; ii) bpy/phen ligation to AgIII ; iii) boron-to-AgIII aryl transfer; and iv) ulterior reductive elimination of benzotrifluorides from an [aryl-AgIII -CF3 ] fragment. More precisely, an ultimate entry and full characterization of organosilver(III) compounds [K]+ [AgIII (CF3 )4 ]- (K-1), [(bpy)AgIII (CF3 )3 ] (2) and [(phen)AgIII (CF3 )3 ] (3), is described. The utility of 3 in cross-coupling has been showcased unambiguously, and a large variety of arylboron compounds was trifluoromethylated via [AgIII (aryl)(CF3 )3 ]- intermediates. This work breaks with old stereotypes and misconceptions regarding the inability of Ag to undergo cross-coupling by itself.

Abstract
The addition of sulfonyl radicals to alkenes and alkynes is a valuable method for constructing useful highly functionalized sulfonyl compounds. The underexplored alkoxy- and fluorosulfonyl radicals are easily accessed by CF3 radical addition to readily available allylsulfonic acid derivatives and then β-fragmentation. These substituted sulfonyl radicals add to aryl alkyl alkynes to give vinyl radicals that are trapped by trifluoromethyl transfer to provide tetra-substituted alkenes bearing the privileged alkoxy- or fluorosulfonyl group on one carbon and a trifluoromethyl group on the other. This process exhibits broad functional group compatibility and allows for the late-stage functionalization of drug molecules, demonstrating its potential in drug discovery and chemical biology. An unprecedented method for vicinal addition of alkoxysulfonyl/fluorosulfonyl and trifluoromethyl groups to aryl alkyl alkynes has been developed to afford useful alkenylsulfonate esters and alkenylsulfonyl fluorides.![]()

Abstract
The cubane ring has received intense attention as a 3D benzene isostere and scaffold. Mono- and 1,4-disubstituted cubanes are well-described. Here we report a practical procedure for a direct radical-mediated chlorocarbonylation process initially reported by Bashir-Hashemi, to access a range of 2-substituted 1,4-cubanedicarboxylic ester derivatives. A subsequent regioselective ester hydrolysis to give fully differentiated 1,2,4-trisubstituted cubanes is demonstrated.
