Abstract
An unusual benzofuran synthesis from 2,6-disubstituted phenols and alkynyl sulfoxides is disclosed. Various highly substituted benzofurans were synthesized via the charge-accelerated [3,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement and subsequent substituent migration. Multiaryl-substituted benzofurans and fully substituted benzofurans were prepared on the basis of the unique reaction mechanism.

[PMID: 37926921 DOI: 10.1002/anie.202310540] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/23/2023] [Revised: 10/26/2023] [Accepted: 10/29/2023] [Indexed: 11/07/2023]
Abstract
ortho-Aminophenols are aromatic derivatives featuring vicinal N- and O-based functionalities commonly found in the structures of many high-value materials. These molecules are generally prepared using multistep strategies that follow the rules of electrophilic aromatic substitution (SE Ar) chemistry. Despite their high fidelity, such approaches cannot target substrates featuring a "contra-SE Ar" arrangement of N- and O-groups. Here we report an alternative strategy for the preparation of such ortho-aminophenols using aryl azides as the precursors. The process utilizes low-energy photoexcitation to trigger the decomposition of aryl azides into singlet nitrenes that undergo a dearomative-rearomative sequence. This allows the incorporation of alcoholic nucleophiles into a seven-membered ring azepine intermediate via temporary disruption of aromaticity, followed by electrophile-induced re-aromatization. The net retrosynthetic logic is that the alcohol displaces the azide, which, in turn, moves to its ortho position and furthermore is converted into an amide. The synthetic value and complementarity of this strategy has been demonstrated by the coupling of aryl azides with complex, drug-like alcohols and phenols as well as amines, thiols and thiophenols, which provides a general platform for the fast and selective heterofunctionalization of aromatics.

Abstract
Cascade alkyl migration of 2-alkynylanilines via an aromaticity destruction and reconstruction process is reported. The first alkyl migration is triggered by generation of a dearomatized arenium species via oxidation and cyclization, and the second is driven by the force to restore the aromaticity of rearrangement products. The reaction gave rise to a range of multi-functionalized indoles.

Abstract
The detailed mechanism for NHC-Cu(I)-catalyzed intermolecular nucleophilic substitution of the C-H bonds at aniline (2-methyl-N-methoxyaniline) was studied via DFT methods to reveal the essence of the selectivity. Calculations revealed that the meta C-H functionalization proceeds via two nucleophilic attacks on the aromatic ring rather than a one-step meta C-H substitution to give the experimentally observed major product. The reaction is initiated by activation of the substrate via oxidative addition with an NHC-Cu(I) catalyst, through which an umpolung occurs at the ring. From the activated intermediate, methoxyl group transfer to benzyl forms a resting state, while a nucleophile can attack the ortho position of benzyl to form a more stable intermediate. The nucleophile group can then transfer to the meta position by a 1,2-Wagner-Meerwein rearrangement to form the final product through a proton shuttle. In contrast, other transfer processes affording ortho- or para-substituted products encounter higher activation barriers. This work investigates the relationship of product selectivity with the umpolung of the aromatic ring, as well as the priority of a nucleophilic attack at the ortho position of the aromatic, 1,2-Wagner-Meerwein rearrangement from the ortho-substituted intermediate, and proton shuttle from the meta-substituted intermediate.

Abstract
Silver-catalyzed reactions of N-sulfenylanilides afforded the corresponding p-sulfenylanilides in good to high yields with good para selectivity. The transformation has a high compatibility of functional groups, such as ester, bromo, and iodo groups. Mechanistic studies indicate that the rearrangement reaction proceeds through intermolecular transfer of the sulfenyl group.

Abstract
A unique benzannulation strategy for regioselective de novo synthesis of densely functionalized phenols is described. Through metal-mediated formal [2+2+1+1] cycloaddition of two different alkynes and two molecules of CO, a series of densely functionalized phenols were obtained. The benzannulation strategy allows efficient regioselective installation up to five different substituents on a phenol ring. The resulting phenols have a substitution pattern different from those obtained from Dötz and Danheiser benzannulations.

Abstract
Here we report a Lewis acid-catalyzed 1,3-aminomethyl migration rection. When δ-amino acid derivatives were treated with a catalytic amount of Sc(OTf)3, 1,3-migration of the aminomethyl group proceeded smoothly to afford β-amino acid derivatives in moderate to good chemical yields. Detailed investigation suggested that this migration reaction proceeded through the fragmentation/recombination pathway.

Abstract
It is difficult to subject simple reaction starting materials to a "one-pot" in situ tandem reaction without post-treatment under mild reaction conditions to obtain multimers with complex structural linkages. In organic synthesis, acetal reactions are often used to protect derivatives containing carbonyl functional groups. Therefore, acetal products tend to have very low stability, and performing multi-step condensation to obtain complex multimeric products is difficult. Herein, we achieved the first efficient multiple condensation of o-vanillin derivatives using Dy(OAc)3·6H2O undergoing a "one-pot" in situ tandem reaction under mild solvothermal conditions to obtain a series of dimers (I and II, clusters 1 and 2) and trimers (I and II, clusters 3 and 4). When methanol or ethanol is used as the solvent, the alcoholic solvent participates in acetal and dehydration reactions to obtain dimers (I and II). Surprisingly, when using acetonitrile as the reaction solvent, the o-vanillin derivatives undergo acetal and dehydration reactions to obtain trimers (I and II). In addition, clusters 1-4 all showed distinct single-molecule magnetic behaviors under zero-field conditions. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that multiple acetal reactions catalyzed by coordination-directed catalysis under "one-pot" conditions have been realized, opening a new horizon for the development of fast, facile, green, and efficient synthetic methods for complex compounds.

Abstract
The [1,3]-nitrogen rearrangement reactions of O-aryl ketoximes were promoted by N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-copper catalysts and BF3·OEt2 as an additive, affording ortho-aminophenol derivatives in good yields. The reaction of substrates with electron-withdrawing substituents on the phenol moiety are accelerated by adding silver salt and modifying the substituent at the nitrogen atom. Density functional theory calculations suggest that the rate-determining step of this reaction is the oxidative addition of the N–O bond of the substrate to the copper catalyst. The negative ρ values of the substituent at both the oxime carbon and phenoxy group indicate that the donation of electrons by the oxygen and nitrogen atoms accelerates the oxidative addition. [1,3]-Nitrogen rearrangement reactions of O-aryl ketoximes was catalytically promoted by IPrCuBr and BF3·OEt2. The oxidative addition of the N–O bond to the Cu catalyst is accelerated by donation of electrons from both nitrogen and oxygen atoms.![]()

Abstract
We describe the difunctionalization of arylboronic acids to prepare various N-(2-hydroxyaryl)pyridin-2-ones in good yields using N-hydroxypyridin-2-ones as the oxygen and nitrogen sources through a copper(II)-catalyzed Chan-Lam reaction and subsequent BF3-promoted selective 1,3-rearrangement of N-O bond in a one-pot procedure. Mechanistic studies reveal that the 1,3-rearrangement selectivity is controlled by the formation of the key aryloxypyridinium salt. The obtained products are easily converted to various useful pyridin-2-one scaffolds.

Abstract
N,O-Diarylhydroxylamines generally favor the [3,3] sigmatropic shift rearrangement. Possible N/O[1,3] sigmatropic shift rearrangements of multisubstituted N,O-diarylhydroxylamines were investigated experimentally with rationally designed substrates, which were generally in situ prepared from suitable nitroaryl halides and N-arylhydroxylamines via aromatic nucleophilic substitution. The results indicate that both N- and O-(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)hydroxylamines still favor the [3,3] sigmatropic shift followed by tautomerization rather than N[1,3] and O[1,3] sigmatropic shifts and the rearranged products of N-(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)hydroxylamines further undergo an intramolecular nucleophilic addition to afford dibenzo[b,d]furan-4a(9bH)-amine derivatives, while N-(4-mono- and 3,5-disubstituted phenyl)-O-(2,4,6-trinitrophenyl)hydroxylamines favorably first undergo the O[1,3] sigmatropic shift followed by tandem Smiles rearrangement and amide/ester exchange reactions, generating 2-arylaminoaryl benzoate derivatives. N-Phenyl-O-(2,4,6-trinitrophenyl)hydroxylamines undergo tandem double O[1,3] sigmatropic shift rearrangement to produce formal O[1,5] shift products. However, O-(2,6-dinitrophenyl)-N-(4-substituted phenyl)hydroxylamines undergo tandem O[1,3] and double [3,3] sigmatropic shift rearrangements to give formal 3,5-shift products. The proposed mechanism is rationalized by density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The current investigation provides not only a comprehensive understanding of the chemoselective sigmatropic shift rearrangements of N,O-diarylhydroxylamines, but also some novel synthetic strategies for dibenzo[b,d]furanamines, diarylamines, diaryl ethers, 2'-amino-[1,1'-biphenyl]-2(1H)-one, and 2'-amino-[1,1'-biaryl]-4-ol derivatives.

Abstract
"Dance reaction" on the aromatic ring is a powerful method in organic chemistry to translocate functional groups on arene scaffolds. Notably, dance reactions of halides and pseudohalides offer a unique platform for the divergent synthesis of substituted (hetero)aromatic compounds when combined with transition-metal-catalyzed coupling reactions. Herein, we report a tandem reaction of ester dance and decarbonylative coupling enabled by palladium catalysis. In this reaction, 1,2-translocation of the ester moiety on the aromatic ring is followed by decarbonylative coupling with nucleophiles to enable the installation of a variety of nucleophiles at the position adjacent to the ester in the starting material.

Abstract
A new type of sp3-like N-centered radical has been generated by selective energy transfer catalysis. Upon photoexcitation, homolytic N-O bond cleavage of N-indolyl carbonate in the presence of an Ir complex produced N- and O-centered radicals. The high spin density at the C3 position of indole led to radical recombination with the O-centered radical, affording valuable 3-oxyindole derivatives without decarboxylation. Transformations of the desired products into various molecules were also demonstrated.

Abstract
We herein disclose the Cp*Co(III)(LX)-catalyzed amidative alkyl migration using 2,6-disubstituted phenyl azidoformates. Upon the cobalt-nitrenoid insertion toward the substituted ortho carbon, an arenium cationic species bearing a quaternary carbon is generated, and a subsequent alkyl migration process is suggested to occur through an unforeseen alkyl-walking mechanism. A quinolinol ligand of the cobalt catalyst system is proposed to facilitate the final product-releasing rearomatization process by serving as an internal base. This new mechanistic mode enabled both [1,2]- and [1,4]-alkyl rearrangements to allow the structural variation of N-heterocyclic compounds.

Abstract
A Cu-catalyzed cascade reaction between N-alkoxyanilines having an electron-donating functional group at the ortho position and dienophiles, such as N-methylmaleimide, styrene, and indene, proceeded via a dearomative [1,3]-alkoxy rearrangement followed by the Diels-Alder reaction, affording the corresponding ketimines with highly functionalized bicyclic skeletons in an efficient and stereoselective manner. Our mechanistic investigations indicated that the [1,3]-rearrangement is the rate-determining process, efficiently suppressing unfavorable side reactions.

Abstract
Here we report a detailed theoretical study of the mechanism of Cu+-catalyzed domino rearrangement of 2-methyl-N-methoxyaniline with a deep understanding of the unique motivation and selectivity of these migrations. We find that the Cu+ catalyst accelerates the [1,3]-methoxy migration to the methyl-bound ortho position of umpolung phenyl. The following domino transfer prefers methyl [1,2]-migration, and the rate-determining step for the whole reaction is the transfer of a proton from the phenyl ring to amine to finish the catalytic cycle.

Abstract
Addition of N-hydroxybenzotriazoles to ynamides causes spontaneous rearrangement, resulting in α-benzotriazolyl imides. The transformation proceeded at rt in the absence of any catalyst but could be efficiently catalyzed by Zn(OTf)2. Crossover experiments confirmed that the rearrangement is an intramolecular process, most likely via a concerted mechanism. However, heating the mixture above 110 °C resulted in isomerization of N2 into N1 product, via heterolytic C-N bond dissociation. This tandem addition-rearrangement sequence provides an efficient and atom-economical synthetic route for the synthesis of α-benzotriazolyl carbonyl compounds.

Abstract
meta-Substituted anilines were efficiently synthesized via copper-catalyzed [1,3]-methoxy rearrangement of N-methoxyanilines followed by Michael addition of nucleophiles to the in situ generated ortho-quinol imine. The present reaction exhibits excellent applicability of para-substituents, such as vinyl, methylthio, ester, and bromo, and carbon nucleophiles, such as 1,3,5-trimethoxybenzene, N-methylindole, and dimethyl malonate. Thus, the present rearrangement can resolve problems stemming from oxidation reactions, such as the use of stoichiometric amounts of oxidants and low compatibility of electron-withdrawing groups.

Abstract
The synthesis and full characterization of new air-stable AgI and CuI complexes bearing structurally bulky expanded-ring N-heterocyclic carbene (erNHC) ligands is presented. The condensation of protonated NHC salts with Ag2 O afforded a collection of AgI complexes, and their first use as ligand transfer reagents led to novel isostructural CuI or AuI complexes. In situ deprotonation of the NHC salts in the presence of a copper(I) source, provides a library of new CuI complexes. The solid-state structures feature large N-CNHC -N angles (118-128°) and almost identical angles between the aryl groups on the nitrogen atoms and the plane of the N-C-N unit of the carbene (i.e. torsion angles close to 0°). Among the steric parameters, the percent buried volume (%Vbur ) values span easily in the 50-57 % range, and that one of (9-Dipp)CuBr complex (%Vbur =57.5) overcomes to other known erNHC-metal complexes reported to date. Preliminary catalytic experiments in the copper-catalyzed coupling between N-tosylhydrazone and phenylacetylene, afforded 76-93 % product at the 0.5-2.5 mol % catalyst loading, proving the stability of CuI erNHC complexes at elevated temperatures (100 °C).

Abstract
In this work, we report enantioselective orthogonal tandem catalysis for the one pot conversion of Meldrum's acid derivatives and alkynes into δ-lactones. This new transformation, which resembles a formal [4+2] cycloaddition with concomitant decarboxylation and loss of acetone, proceeds in high yields and excellent enantioselectivity (up to 99 % ee) over a broad substrate scope. The products are densely functionalized and ripe for further transformations, as demonstrated here by both ring-opening reactions and reduction to saturated lactones. It was discovered that a new and serendipitously formed AgI -Me-StackPhos complex efficiently catalyzes the highly selective 6-endo-dig cyclization, completely reversing the regiochemistry that has been previously reported in related systems. More generally, in this study we identify a pair of compatible catalysts for alkyne difunctionalization that operate concurrently, which enable the alkyne to act as both a nucleophile and an electrophile in sequential one-pot transformations.

Abstract
A new free carbon radical was obtained in a microwave-assisted solvothermal reaction of the primary amine (1-methyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)methanamine with FeCl3 ⋅6 H2 O in methanol at 140 °C. Through a combination of crystallography and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry, the reaction process was studied. The longest domino reaction includes 14 steps and forms up to 12 new covalent bonds (9 C-N and 3 C-C bonds) and 3 five-membered heterocycles. For the first time, the homolytic cleavage of a C-O bond was used to synthesize a triarylmethyl radical.
