The [3]Dendralene Motif as an Entry into Nazarov Cyclizations by Silylium-Ion Initiation
Supriya Rej, Hendrik F. T. Klare, and Martin Oestreich
American Chemical Society (ACS)
Geminal alkenes bearing an aryl and an allenyl group contain the motif of [3]dendralenes. The central alkene double bond in these cross-conjugated polyenes can be reacted with a silylium ion, thereby initiating a Nazarov cyclization. The cationic intermediate emerging from the electrocyclic ring closure is captured by hydride in the presence of excess hydrosilane. The resulting benzannulated methylenecyclopentene derivatives bearing a silylalkyl group then engage in silylium-ion regeneration followed by an unusual endo-selective intramolecular hydrosilylation. This cascade eventually leads to the formation of a silicon-containing bicyclo[3.2.1]octane skeleton.


Regioselective Transition-Metal-Free C(sp²)−H Borylation: A Subject of Practical and Ongoing Interest in Synthetic Organic Chemistry
Supriya Rej and Naoto Chatani
Wiley
AbstractConsiderable advances have been made in the area of C−H functionalization in the last few decades. A number of approaches including both directed and nondirected strategies have been developed thus far. Among the various C−H functionalizations, C−H borylation is of special interest due to the wide applications of organoboron compounds. In this regard, various transition‐metal‐catalyzed regioselective strategies have been developed. However, the major concern regarding metal‐catalyzed C−H borylation procedures is the requirement of a precious metal as well as the contamination by metal precursors in the desired products, which limit the application of this process in large‐scale synthesis. Therefore, recent trends have involved the use of transition‐metal‐free systems. We summarize recent developments in transition‐metal‐free regioselective C−H borylation. We believe that this Review will help to increase interest in this field and stimulate further progress.

Silylium-Ion-Promoted Hydrosilylation of Aryl-Substituted Allenes: Interception by Cyclization of the Allyl-Cation Intermediate
Supriya Rej, Hendrik F. T. Klare, and Martin Oestreich
American Chemical Society (ACS)
A trityl-cation-initiated, silylium-ion-promoted hydrosilylation of aryl-substituted allenes is reported. Depending on the hydrosilane-to-initiator ratio, the hydrosilylation can be intercepted by an intramolecular electrophilic aromatic substitution or a Nazarov electrocyclization of an allyl-cation intermediate in the form of its endo isomer. By this, the selective formation of either the conventional 1,2-hydrosilylation product (vinylsilane) or a cyclized product (silylated indane) can be controlled.


Origin of the Enhanced Reactivity in the ortho C–H Borylation of Benzaldehydes with BBr<inf>3</inf>
Ken Yamazaki, Supriya Rej, Yusuke Ano, and Naoto Chatani
American Chemical Society (ACS)
The metal-free ortho C-H borylation of benzaldehyde derivatives using a transient imine directing group was recently developed by our group, providing an efficient strategy for the synthesis of organoboron reagents. Herein, we report on an extensive investigation of the reaction mechanism using density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Computations for the reaction pathway with various imine substrates, as well as the effect of an added base were examined, and the experimentally observed reactivity enhancement is proposed to originate from the tunability of the destabilizing strain energies that results in a reversible complexation process with BBr3.

Overview of Regioselective and Stereoselective Catalytic Hydroboration of Alkynes
Supriya Rej, Amrita Das, and Tarun K. Panda
Wiley
AbstractHydroboration of alkynes is of special interest to researchers since it is the most straightforward process for the synthesis of highly important vinylborane synthetic intermediate compounds. It is significant in terms of both regioselectivity and stereoselectivity, since several positional isomers are formed during the process of hydroboration. Given the importance of this class of compounds, an extensive study has been carried out regarding catalytic condition development and detailed mechanistic studies for selectively obtaining a single isomer. This review comprehensively summarizes both the regioselective and stereoselective catalytic hydroboration of alkynes. It is aimed at giving readers accurate knowledge of the catalytic systems available for the hydroboration of certain alkynes. We anticipate that this inclusive review will encourage researchers to explore more new types of catalytic systems to achieve the remarkable process of hydroboration of alkynes.magnified image

American Chemical Society (ACS)
A new class of dirhodium(II) complexes with tethered sulfonamide and carboxamide ligands was synthesized and characterized. A new type of coordination mode was found for the quinoline moiety containing a sulfonamide ligand, which afforded the axially coordination-free bimetallic dirhodium complexes. Studies were conducted on the catalytic properties of these complexes for cyclopropanation reactions, and the findings indicate that a free axial coordination site is crucial for achieving a high degree of reactivity.

Transient imine as a directing group for the metal-free o-C-H borylation of benzaldehydes
Supriya Rej and Naoto Chatani
American Chemical Society (ACS)
Organoboron reagents are important synthetic intermediates and have wide applications in synthetic organic chemistry. The selective borylation strategies that are currently in use largely rely on the use of transition-metal catalysts. Hence, identifying much milder conditions for transition-metal-free borylation would be highly desirable. We herein present a unified strategy for the selective C-H borylation of electron-deficient benzaldehyde derivatives using a simple metal-free approach, utilizing an imine transient directing group. The strategy covers a wide spectrum of reactions and (i) even highly sterically hindered C-H bonds can be borylated smoothly, (ii) despite the presence of other potential directing groups, the reaction selectively occurs at the o-C-H bond of the benzaldehyde moiety, and (iii) natural products appended to benzaldehyde derivatives can also give the appropriate borylated products. Moreover, the efficacy of the protocol was confirmed by the fact that the reaction proceeds even in the presence of a series of external impurities.


Rh^III-Catalyzed Double Dehydrogenative Coupling of Free 1-Naphthylamines with α,β-Unsaturated Esters
Supriya Rej and Naoto Chatani
Wiley
AbstractThe RhIII‐catalyzed, consecutive double C−H oxidative coupling of free 1‐naphthylamine and α,β‐unsaturated esters through C−H/C−H and C−H/N−H bonds is reported. The one step reaction leads to the formation of biologically important alkylidene‐1,2‐dihydrobenzo[cd]indoles scaffolds. This efficient process is much more synthetically convenient and useful than others because the starting materials, such as 1‐naphthylamine derivatives are readily available and the free amine serves as a directing group.


Bidentate Directing Groups: An Efficient Tool in C-H Bond Functionalization Chemistry for the Expedient Construction of C-C Bonds
Supriya Rej, Yusuke Ano, and Naoto Chatani
American Chemical Society (ACS)
During the past decades, synthetic organic chemistry discovered that directing group assisted C-H activation is a key tool for the expedient and siteselective construction of C-C bonds. Among the various directing group strategies, bidentate directing groups are now recognized as one of the most efficient devices for the selective functionalization of certain positions due to fact that its metal center permits fine, tunable, and reversible coordination. The family of bidentate directing groups permit various types of assistance to be achieved, such as N,N-dentate, N,O-dentate, and N,S-dentate auxiliaries, which are categorized based on the coordination site. In this review, we broadly discuss various C-H bond functionalization reactions for the formation of C-C bonds with the aid of bidentate directing groups.

Rhodium-Catalyzed C(sp²)- or C(sp³)−H Bond Functionalization Assisted by Removable Directing Groups
Supriya Rej and Naoto Chatani
Wiley
AbstractIn 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.


Rhodium-Catalyzed Alkylation of C−H Bonds in Aromatic Amides with Non-activated 1-Alkenes: The Possible Generation of Carbene Intermediates from Alkenes
Takuma Yamaguchi, Satoko Natsui, Kaname Shibata, Ken Yamazaki, Supriya Rej, Yusuke Ano, and Naoto Chatani
Wiley
AbstractThe alkylation of C−H bonds (hydroarylation) in aromatic amides with non‐activated 1‐alkenes using a rhodium catalyst and assisted by an 8‐aminoquinoline directing group is reported. The addition of a carboxylic acid is crucial for the success of this reaction. The results of deuterium‐labeling experiments indicate that one of deuterium atoms in the alkene is missing, suggesting that the reaction does not proceed through the commonly accepted mechanism for C−H alkylation reactions. Instead the reaction is proposed to proceed through a carbene mechanism. The carbene mechanism is also supported by preliminary DFT calculations.

Rhodium(I)-Catalyzed C8-Alkylation of 1-Naphthylamide Derivatives with Alkenes through a Bidentate Picolinamide Chelation System
Supriya Rej and Naoto Chatani
American Chemical Society (ACS)
The rhodium(I)-catalyzed C–H alkylation of 1-naphthylamide derivatives with alkenes at the C8-position using a picolinamide directing group is reported. Various alkenes including styrene derivatives, α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds, and even unactivated alkene could also be used as coupling partners. The reaction mechanism was investigated in kinetic studies, deuterium labeling studies, and control experiments. The reaction appears to proceed through a rhodium carbene intermediate, which is generated from an alkene.


Organosilicon Reducing Reagents for Stereoselective Formations of Silyl Enol Ethers from α-Halo Carbonyl Compounds
Suman Pramanik, Supriya Rej, Shun Kando, Hayato Tsurugi, and Kazushi Mashima
American Chemical Society (ACS)
Salt-free stereoselective synthesis of silyl enol ethers was achieved by treating α-halo carbonyl compounds with 2,3,5,6-tetramethyl-1,4-bis(trimethylsilyl)-1,4-dihydropyrazine. In this reaction, easily removable trimethylsilyl halides and 2,3,5,6-tetramethylpyrazine were generated as the reaction byproducts. Due to the inertness of the reaction byproducts, we found a one-pot transformation of the in situ generated silyl enol ethers into various α-functionalized carbonyls by reaction with Togni-II reagent or aldehydes.
