Photocatalyzed [2σ + 2σ] and [2σ + 2π] Cycloadditions for the Synthesis of Bicyclo[3.1.1]heptanes and 5- or 6-Membered Carbocycles

Jérôme Waser, Matthew Wodrich, André Bossonnet

We report the use of photocatalysis for the homolytic ring-opening of carbonyl cyclopropanes. In contrast to previous studies, our approach does not require a metal cocatalyst or a strong reductant. The carbonyl cyclopropanes can be employed for both [2σ + ...

Ring-Opening Reactions of Aminocyclopropanes and Aminocyclobutanes

Mingming Wang

Nitrogen-containing compounds are an important class of molecules in medicinal chemistry, chemical biology, biochemistry, material sciences or environmental sciences. Organic nitrogen occurs in many forms, ranging from small building blocks such as urea, a ...

Mapping Catalyst‐Solvent Interplay in Competing Carboamination/Cyclopropanation Reactions

Nicolai Cramer, Matthew Wodrich, Miyeon Chang, Simone Gallarati

Group 9 metals, in particular Rh III complexes with cyclopentadienyl ligands, are competent C–H activation catalysts. Recently, a Cp*Rh III catalyzed reaction of alkenes with N -enoxyphthalimides showed divergent outcome based on the solvent, with carboami ...

Asymmetric Cyclopropanation and Epoxidation via a Catalytically Formed Chiral Auxiliary

Jérôme Waser, Mikus Purins

For the enantioselective diversification of a single starting material, a different chiral catalyst is usually required for each transformation. Herein, we extend the concept of catalytically formed chiral auxiliary from hydrogenation to the asymmetric cyc ...

Nitrous oxide as a diazo transfer reagent: the synthesis of triazolopyridines

Kay Severin, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Iris Roswitha Landman

Nitrous oxide is a potential diazo transfer reagent, but its applications in organic chemistry are scarce. Here, we show that triazolopyridines and triazoloquinolines are formed in the reactions of metallated 2-alkylpyridines or 2-alkylquinolines with N2O. ...

Colloidal Synthesis of Cu-M-S (M = V, Cr, Mn) Nanocrystals by Tuning the Copper Precursor Reactivity

Raffaella Buonsanti, Seyedehbehnaz Varandili, James Richard Pankhurst, Valeria Mantella

New ternary and higher order inorganic materials are needed for a large variety of applications, yet their synthesis still represents a chemistry challenge. Herein, we focus on the synthesis of Cu-M-S nanocrystals (where M = V, Cr, Mn) via a wet-chemistry ...

Modular Chiral N-Heterocyclic Carbene Ligands for the Nickel-Catalyzed Enantioselective C-H Functionalization of Heterocycles

Nicolai Cramer, Johannes Diesel

N-Heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) are the ligands of choice in a large variety of transformations entailing different transition metals. However, the number and variety of chiral NHCs suitable as stereo-controlling ligands in asymmetric catalysis remains limi ...

Chiral N-Heterocyclic Carbene Ligands for Asymmetric Catalysis

Johannes Diesel

N-Heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) are the ligands of choice in a large variety of transformations entailing different transition metals. However, the number of chiral NHCs suitable as stereocontrolling ligands in asymmetric catalysis remains limited. In parti ...

Efficient Kinetic Resolution of Sulfur-Stereogenic Sulfoximines by Exploiting (CpRhIII)-Rh-X-Catalyzed C-H Functionalization

Nicolai Cramer, Marcus Brauns

Chiral sulfoximines with stereogenic sulfur atoms are promising motifs in drug discovery. We report an efficient method to access chiral sulfoximines through a C-H functionalization based kinetic resolution. A rhodium(III) complex equipped with a chiral Cp ...

Divergent Reactivity of Thioalkynes in Lewis Acid Catalyzed Annulations with Donor-Acceptor Cyclopropanes

Rosario Scopelliti, Jérôme Waser, Sophie Lucie Racine, Bence Márton Hegedüs

Efficient methods for the convergent synthesis of (poly) cyclic scaffolds are urgently needed in synthetic and medicinal chemistry. Herein, we describe new annulation reactions of thioalkynes with phthalimide-substituted donor-acceptor cyclopropanes, which ...
