Chemo-, Stereo- and Regioselective Fluoroallylation/Annulation of Hydrazones with gem-Difluorocyclopropanes via Tunable Palladium/NHC Catalysis

Huijun Qian et al.

Summary: The study developed an efficient method to incorporate the hydrazone moiety into the products through palladium/NHC-catalyzed fluoroallylation/annulation of gem-difluorocyclopropanes (gem-F(2)CPs) with hydrazones. Thermodynamically unstable fluorinated E-allylation products were obtained with aryl ketone hydrazones, while monofluorinated products with branched selectivity were obtained with di-alkyl ketone hydrazones. Two kinds of pyrazoles were obtained via a defluorinative allylation/annulation cascade with aldehyde hydrazones, and different carbon atoms of gem-F(2)CPs could be incorporated into the pyrazole rings regiospecifically. DFT calculations revealed that the divergent selectivity was kinetically controlled and the final C-C bond formation proceeded through a 7-membered TS.

Chiral Proton-Transfer Shuttle Catalysts Promoted Enantio-selective Nazarov Cyclization

Jin Cao et al.

Summary: In this account, we reviewed our recent efforts on the enantioselective Nazarov cyclization promoted by chiral proton-transfer shuttle catalysts. Chiral cyclopenta[b]indoles and chiral alpha, alpha' disubstituted cyclopentenones were synthesized by cooperative catalysis of a Lewis acid and a chiral spiro phosphoric acid. Mechanistic studies revealed the multifunctional role of the chiral spiro phosphoric acid as a co-catalyst for the cyclization reaction and for the enantioselective proton-transfer reaction of the enol intermediate via a hydrogen network.

Copper-catalysed difluorocarbene transfer enables modular synthesis

Xin Zeng et al.

Summary: The use of metal catalysts in controlling the reactivity of carbenes is widely used in organic synthesis, but the transfer of difluorocarbenes remains a challenge. In this study, isolable copper(I) difluorocarbene complexes were developed and used as catalysts for difluorocarbene transfer reactions. This strategy allows for the modular synthesis of organofluorine compounds and provides access to a variety of difluoromethylene-containing products. Mechanistic studies reveal a nucleophilic addition mechanism involving electrophilic copper(I) difluorocarbenes.

Difluorocarbene-Triggered [1+5] Annulation: Access to Functionalized 1,1-Difluoro-1,9a-dihydropyrido[2,1-c][1,4]thiazine Derivatives

Simin Sun et al.

Summary: A difluorocarbene-triggered [1+5] annulation reaction was developed to directly access 1,1-difluoro-1,9a-dihydropyrido[2,1-c][1,4]-thiazine-3,4-dicarboxylate derivatives in satisfactory to good yields by reacting potassium bromodifluoroacetate and pyridinium 1,4-zwitterionic thiolates under heating. The pyridinium 1,4-zwitterionic thiolates first attack the difluorocarbene generated from potassium bromodifluoroacetate, followed by an intramolecular nucleophilic addition to the pyridiniums. This method provides a rapid route for introducing the difluoromethyl group into the 1,9a-dihydropyrido[2,1-c][1,4]thiazine ring, and even for modifying drug molecules.
