Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2024; 63:e202400938. [PMID: 38329239 DOI: 10.1002/anie.202400938] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/15/2024] [Revised: 02/06/2024] [Accepted: 02/08/2024] [Indexed: 02/09/2024]
Abstract
Selective functionalization of allenic C(sp2)-H is an ideal approach to upgrading simple allenes to synthetically useful allenes, albeit suffering from challenges associated with inert reactivity and inferior selectivity. Inspired by energy chemistry, a catalytic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) strategy was leveraged to selectively activate weakly acidic allene C(sp2)-H bonds in a reductive mode. An array of [Co2O2] metallacycle complexes were readily devised starting from amino acids, and they were demonstrated as robust HER catalysts, which would selectively break allenic C(sp2)-H bonds to release hydrogen. With the newly developed HER catalyst, regioselective electrochemical functionalization of allenic C(sp2)-H with alcoholic α C(sp3)-H was unprecedentedly achieved. This strategy features excellent regioselectivity, unconventional chemoselectivity, good functional-group tolerance (62 examples), and mild conditions. Mechanism experiments revealed a reactive hydroxy-coordinated cobalt(II) species in the reaction. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were also conducted to rationalize the regioselectivity observed in the reaction.

Abstract
While the hydrogen atom abstraction (HAA) from C(sp3 )-H bond has been well explored, the radical-mediated chemo- and regio-selective functionalization of allenic C(sp2 )-H bond via direct HAA from C(sp2 )-H bond of allene remains an unsolved challenge in synthetic chemistry. This is primarily due to inherent challenges with addition of radical intermediates to allenes, regioselectivity of HAA process, instability of allenyl radical toward propargyl radical et al. Herein, we report a copper catalyzed allenic C(sp2 )-H cyanation of an array of tri- and di-substituted allenes with exceptional site-selectivity, while mono-substituted allene was successfully cyanated, albeit with a low yield. In the developed strategy, steric N-fluoro-N-alkylsulfonamide, serving as precursor of hydrogen atom abstractor, plays a crucial role in achieving the desired regioselectivity and avoiding addition of N-centered radical to allene.

Abstract
A new Cp*Rh(III)-catalyzed regioselective cyclization reaction of aromatic amides with allenes is reported. The use of allenyl derivatives bearing a directing-group assistant as a reaction promoter was the key to the success of this protocol. In this catalytic system, N-(pivaloyloxy)benzamide substrates react with allenes via Rh-σ-alkenyl intermediates, while N-(pivaloyloxy) indol substrates react via Rh-π-allyl intermediates. These reactions were characterized by mild reaction conditions, a broad substrate scope, and high functional-group compatibility to yield several high-value isoquinolinone and pyrimido[1,6-a]indol-1(2H)-one skeleton-containing compounds. The synthetic applications and primary mechanisms were also investigated.

Abstract
Compared with the extensively reported hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) at sp3 C-H, abstraction of hydrogen atoms at the sp2 carbon is extremely rare. Here, we communicate the site-selective cyanation of the sp2 C-H bond of allenes using the strategy of copper-catalyzed radical relay. The reactions afford various allenyl nitriles directly from simple allenes with a broad substrate scope and a remarkable functional group compatibility under mild conditions. These reactions exhibit excellent site-selectivity toward sp2 C-H, which can be attributed to the unique pocket created by the Cu-bound nitrogen-centered radical. The favorable HAT on sp2 C-H is due to crucial hydrogen bonding between the fluoride bonded to the Cu(II) center and the hydrogen atom at the allylic position. These features enable the late-stage functionalization of druglike bioactive molecules containing an allene motif.

Abstract
We report a synthesis of allenylic silyl ethers through iron-catalyzed functionalization of the C(sp2)─H bonds of monosubstituted alkylallenes. In the presence of a cyclopentadienyliron dicarbonyl based catalyst and triisopropylsilyl triflate as a silylation agent, a variety of aryl aldehydes were suitable coupling partners in this transformation, furnishing a collection of 1,1-disubstituted allenylic triisopropylsilyl ethers as products in moderate to excellent yields as a single regioisomer. Lithium bistriflimide was identified as a critical additive in this transformation. The optimized protocol was scalable, and the products were amenable to further transformation to give a number of unsaturated, polyfunctional derivatives.

Abstract
Vinylarenes represent an important class of core skeleton embedded in natural products, organic materials, and pharmaceutical molecules. Therefore, numerous efforts have been devoted to developing efficient methods for their preparation. Among them, transition-metal-catalyzed oxidative coupling of arenes and alkenes has proved to be a powerful method due to its high atom and step economy. Although a wide range of oxidative alkenylations of arenes have been developed, the alkenes employed in most cases are still limited to electron-deficient alkenes. Reported herein is a Rh(III)-catalyzed C-H cross-coupling of benzoxazinones and simple unactivated styrenes to furnish a variety of vinylarene scaffolds. This established protocol is characterized by wide functional group compatibility, high yields, and excellent regio- and chemo-selectivity. Mechanistic studies and gram-scale experiments on this high-value conversion are disclosed. Moreover, the potential utility of this method was highlighted by a series of further transformations.

Abstract
An efficient and stereoselective CoIII -catalyzed sequential C-H bond addition to 1,3-enynes and aldehydes is disclosed. This transformation represents the first example of sequential C-H bond additions to 1,3-enynes and a second coupling partner and provides the first example of preparing allenes by C-H bond addition to 1,3-enynes. A wide range of aldehydes, C-H bond substrates and 1,3-enynes with large substituents on the alkynes are effective substrates. The allenyl alcohol products can be further converted to dihydrofurans with high stereoselectivity either in situ or under Ag-mediated cyclization conditions. The allenyl silyl group can also be transferred to the adjacent alcohol by a Brook rearrangement. Moreover, a mechanism for the transformation is proposed supported by X-ray structural characterization of a cobaltacycle intermediate.

Abstract
Asymmetric synthesis of new atropisomerically multilayered chiral targets has been achieved by taking advantage of the strategy of center-to-multilayer chirality and double Suzuki-Miyaura couplings. Diastereomers were readily separated via flash column chromatography and well characterized. Absolute configuration assignment was determined by X-ray structural analysis. Five enantiomerically pure isomers possessing multilayer chirality were assembled utilizing anchors involving electron-rich aromatic connections. An overall yield of 0.69% of the final target with hydroxyl attachment was achieved over 11 steps from commercially available starting materials.

Abstract
Herein, we report a mild and highly regioselective Rh(iii)-catalyzed non-oxidative [5 + 1] vinylic C-H annulation of 2-alkenylanilides with allenyl acetates, which has been elusive so far. The reaction proceeds via vinylic C-H activation, regioselective 2,3-migratory insertion, β-oxy elimination followed by nucleophilic cyclization to get direct access to 1,2-dihydroquinoline derivatives. The strategy was also successfully extended to C-H activation of 2-alkenylphenols for constructing chromene derivatives. In the overall [5 + 1] annulation, the allene serves as a one carbon unit. The acetate group on the allene is found to be crucial both for controlling the regio- and chemoselectivity of the reaction and also for facilitating β-oxy elimination. The methodology was scalable and also further extended towards late stage functionalization of various natural products.

Abstract
The selective transition-metal-mediated activation of C(sp2)-H bonds of allenes is a formidable challenge because of the competitive, intrinsic reactivity of cumulated double bonds. Herein, we report a Pd-catalyzed C-H alkenylation of electronically unbiased allenes, affording penta-1,2,4-triene products in up to 94% yield. A picolinamide directing group enables the formation of putative allenyl-palladacycles, which subsequently participate in a turnover-limiting Heck-type reaction with electron-deficient alkene coupling partners. This mechanistic proposal is consistent with experimental and computational investigations. Additionally, we report for the first time the use of picolinamide N,O-acetals as readily removable auxiliaries for C-H activation reactions, allowing the efficient alkenylation of allenyl carbinol derivatives. Successful removal of the directing groups without affecting the reactive penta-1,2,4-triene substructure of the products is demonstrated.

Abstract
An iron-catalysed C-H functionalisation of simple monosubstituted allenes for the synthesis of 1-tetrahydroisoquinolinyl 1,1-disubstituted allenes is reported. This transformation represents the first example of a direct conversion of allenic C-H bonds to C-C bonds through cross dehydrogenative coupling. The optimized protocol features broad scope and employs mild, functional group tolerant conditions.

Abstract
An iron-catalyzed C-H functionalization of simple monosubstituted allenes is reported. An efficient protocol for this process was made possible by the use of a newly developed electron-rich and sterically hindered cationic cyclopentadienyliron dicarbonyl complex as the catalyst and N-sulfonyl hemiaminal ether reagents as precursors to iminium ion electrophiles. Under optimized conditions, the use of a mild, functional-group-tolerant base enabled the conversion of a range of monoalkyl allenes to their allenylic sulfonamido 1,1-disubstituted derivatives, a previously unreported and contrasteric regiochemical outcome for the C-H functionalization of electronically unbiased and directing-group-free allenes.

Abstract
A rhodium-catalyzed intermolecular highly stereoselective 1,3-dienylation at the 2-position of indoles with non-terminal allenyl carbonates has been developed by using 2-pyrimidinyl or pyridinyl as the directing group. The reaction tolerates many functional groups affording the products in decent yields under mild conditions. In addition to C-H bond activation, the directing group also played a vital role in the determination of Z-stereoselectivity for the C-H functionalization reaction with 4-aryl-2,3-allenyl carbonates, which is confirmed by the E-selectivity observed with 4-alkyl-2,3-allenyl carbonates. DFT calculations have been conducted to reveal that π-π stacking involving the directing 2-pyrimidinyl or pyridinyl group is the origin of the observed stereoselectivity. Various synthetic transformations have also been demonstrated.

Abstract
Enantioenriched, six-membered azacycles are essential structural motifs in many products of pharmaceutical or agrochemical interest. Here we report a simple and practical method for enantioselective assembly of tetrahydropyridines, which is paired to a kinetic resolution of α-branched allyltriflamides. The reaction consists of a formal (4+2) cycloaddition between the allylamine derivatives and allenes and is initiated by a palladium(II)-catalyzed C-H activation process. Both the chiral allylamide precursors and the tetrahydropyridine adducts were successfully obtained in high yields, with excellent enantioselectivity (up to 99% ee) and selectivity values of up to 127.

An efficient indium-mediated cascade annulation reaction of 2-azidoaryl aldehydes with propargyl bromides is reported. The aromatic 5/6/6-fused heterocycles, [1,2,3]triazolo[1,5-a]quinoline derivatives, could be constructed in one pot in moderate yields with a broad substrate scope. Mechanistic studies indicated that the reaction proceeded through allenol formation, azide-allene [3 + 2] cycloaddition, and dehydration. The synthetic potential of the products including the denitrogenative functionalization and the Pd-catalyzed coupling reactions has also been explored.

Abstract
The iron-catalyzed hydroarylation of allenes was accomplished by weak phenone assistance. The C-H activation proceeded with excellent efficacy and high ortho-regioselectivity in proximity to the weakly coordinating carbonyl group for a range of substituted phenones and allenes. Detailed mechanistic studies, including the isolation of key intermediates, the structural characterization of an iron-metallacycle, and kinetic analysis, allowed the sound elucidation of a plausible catalytic working mode. This mechanistic rationale is supported by detailed computational density functional theory studies, which fully address multi-spin-state reactivity. Furthermore, in operando nuclear magnetic resonance monitoring of the catalytic reaction provided detailed insights into the mode of action of the iron-catalyzed C-H alkylation with allenes.

Abstract
Ortho C-H allenylation of electron-rich benzene derivatives with propargylic alcohol derivatives has been a challenge, due to their great innate tendency toward a para C-H allenylation via an SN2'-type substitution process. Here, we described a Ru(II)-catalyzed regioselective ortho C-H allenylation of electron-rich aniline and phenol derivatives, which allows the previously challenging synthesis of a broad range of ortho allenylated aniline and phenol derivatives. More significantly, highly optically active fully substituted allenes can also be prepared with high enantiomeric excess via a highly efficient chirality transfer. No para C-H allenylation product was observed in the current catalytic system, thus showing a complete reversibility of the regioselectivity.

Abstract
A highly efficient palladium-catalyzed functionalization of allenylsilanes to give regio- and stereodefined fully-substituted alkenylsilanes has been developed. This oxidative coupling reaction showed good functional group compatibility with exclusive regio- and stereoselectivity. The pending olefin on the silyl group was shown to be an indispensable element for the initial allenic C(sp3 )-H bond cleavage, and performs as the directing group to control the overall selectivity. The addition of substoichiometric amounts of Et3 N was found to increase the reaction rate leading to a higher reaction yield. The reaction can be easily scaled up and applied for the late-stage functionalization of natural products and pharmaceutical compounds, including amino acids and steroid derivatives. The newly introduced functional groups include aryl, alkynyl, and boryl groups. The highly strained four-membered ring, silacyclobutene was obtained when B2 pin2 was employed as the coupling partner. Mechanistic studies, including kinetic isotope effects, showed that the allenic C(sp3 )-H bond cleavage is the rate-limiting step.

Abstract
Allenes are unique coupling partners in transition-metal-catalyzed C-H functionalization leading to a variety of products via alkenylation, allenylation, allylation, and annulation reactions. The outcome is governed by both the reactivity of the allene and the formation and stability of the organometallic intermediate. An efficient Rh(III)-catalyzed, weakly coordinating group-directed dienylation of electronically unbiased allenes is developed using an N-acyl amino acid as a ligand. Further elaboration of the dienylated products to construct polycyclic compounds is also described.

Abstract
In recent years, transition-metal-catalyzed C-H activation has become a key strategy in the field of organic synthesis. Rhodium complexes are widely used as catalysts in a variety of C-H functionalization reactions because of their high reactivity and selectivity. The availability of a number of rhodium complexes in various oxidation states enables diverse reaction patterns to be obtained. Regioselectivity, an important issue in C-H activation chemistry, can be accomplished by using a directing group to assist the reaction. However, to obtain the target functionalized compounds, it is also necessary to use a directing group that can be easily removed. A wide range of directed C-H functionalization reactions catalyzed by rhodium complexes have been reported to date. In this Review, we discuss Rh-catalyzed C-H functionalization reactions that are aided by the use of a removable directing group such as phenol, amine, aldehyde, ketones, ester, acid, sulfonic acid, and N-heteroaromatic derivatives.

Abstract
The Mn-catalyzed C-H functionalization of indoles with allenes developed by Rueping and co-workers provides an efficient access to various alkenylated indoles and substituted pyrroloindolones. Herein, we present a systematic computational study to understand the mechanism and origins of substrate-controlled chemoselectivity of the C-H functionalization reactions (hydroarylation vs cascade cyclization). For the disubstituted allene system, the computed mechanism consists of three main phases: C-H activation, allene migratory insertion, and protonation giving the hydroarylation product. All of these steps are feasible, in agreement with the good yield under the mild experimental conditions. On the other hand, for the trisubstituted allene system, hydroarylation is suppressed due to the higher energy barrier for the protonation step arising from the disfavored ligand-substrate steric repulsions between the carboxide ligand and the substituent group in the allene substrate; our computational results demonstrate that, after the allene insertion leading to a seven-membered cyclometalated intermediate, it undergoes a reaction pathway involving sequential "ketone to enol" isomerization, a 1,4-heteroaryl shift, and β-methoxyl elimination giving the pyrroloindolone product. In contrast, this isomerization → heteroaryl shift → β-methoxyl elimination process is unworkable in the disubstituted allene system, because the protonation step takes place more favorably owing to the lack of ligand-substrate steric interactions. The findings taken together give an insight into the role of the ligand-substrate interactions in directing the competitive pathways and differentiating the energies of key transition states by steric repulsions.

Abstract
Benzyl and allyltriflamides can engage in Pd-catalyzed oxidative (4+2) annulations with allenes, to produce highly valuable tetrahydroisoquinoline or dihydropyridine skeletons. The reaction is especially efficient when carried out in the presence of designed N-protected amino acids as metal ligands. More importantly, using this type of chiral ligands, it is possible to perform desymmetrizing, annulative C-H activations of prochiral diarylmethylphenyl amides, and thus obtain the corresponding isoquinolines with high enantiomeric ratios.

Abstract
Thrimurtulu et al. recently reported unprecedented cobalt-catalyzed annulation of allenes with benzamide (N. Thrimurtulu, A. Dey, D. Maiti, C. M. R. Volla, Angew. Chem., Int. Ed., 2016, 55, 12361-12365). In this reaction, the substituent on the allene controls the regioselectivity for the formation of either dihydroisoquinolin-1(2H)-one or isoquinolin-1(2H)-one. In the present study, density functional theory calculations were performed to investigate the detailed reaction mechanism and the origin of the experimentally observed regioselectivity. A systematic search shows that the electronic and steric effects of the substituent on the allene determine which of the two allene insertions is followed, and thus determine the regioselectivity. The bulky diphenylphosphonate and two phenyl substituents of the allenylphosphonate and diarylallene favor C1[double bond, length as m-dash]C2 insertion, which eventually leads to the formation of isoquinolin-1(2H)-one. In contrast, for the arylallene, which has a relatively electron-rich C2[double bond, length as m-dash]C3 bond, C2[double bond, length as m-dash]C3 insertion is favored and eventually leads to the formation of dihydroisoquinolin-1(2H)-one. The calculations also explain why annulation rather than hydroarylation of benzamide with allenylphosphonate occurs with a cobalt catalyst.
