研究目的
To develop a method for the amidoarylation of unactivated olefins by merging photoredox proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) with nickel catalysis, enabling the synthesis of medicinally privileged pyrrolidinone structures under mild conditions without prefunctionalization.
研究成果
The study successfully demonstrates a novel dual catalytic system for amidoarylation, providing a mild and efficient route to nitrogen-containing heterocycles. It highlights the integration of PCET with nickel catalysis, offering high functional group tolerance and diastereoselectivity. Future work could focus on optimizing base usage and expanding substrate scope.
研究不足
The reaction requires superstoichiometric amounts of base (2.5 equiv), and electron-rich aryl bromides are challenging, necessitating aryl iodides for better yields. Substrates with highly electron-deficient groups show reduced efficiency, and the scope for carbamates and ureas is limited without internal alkenes.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study employs a dual catalytic system combining photoredox PCET for amidyl radical generation from N-H bonds and nickel catalysis for cross-coupling. The design leverages mild conditions to avoid harsh reagents and prefunctionalization.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Substrates include alkenyl amides, carbamates, ureas, and various aryl halides, selected based on their relevance to medicinal chemistry and availability. Data are derived from synthetic reactions and mechanistic studies.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Key materials include Ni(dMeObpy)(H2O)2Br2 as nickel catalyst, [Ir{dF(CF3)2ppy}2(bpy)]PF6 as photocatalyst, Bu4N[OP(O)(OBu)2] as base, solvents like t-BuOH and PhCF3, and substrates such as pent-4-enylanilide and aryl bromides. Equipment includes blue LED light sources, screw-cap vials, and automated chromatography systems.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Reactions are conducted in degassed solvents under argon atmosphere, irradiated with blue LEDs at room temperature. The procedure involves mixing catalysts, substrates, and base, followed by purification via column chromatography after reaction completion.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Yields are determined by isolation and purification, with diastereoselectivities assessed. Mechanistic insights are gained through cyclic voltammetry, Stern-Volmer studies, NMR titration, and kinetic isotope effects.
