Dong, Zhe; MacMillan, David W. C. published the artcile< Metallaphotoredox-enabled deoxygenative arylation of alcohols>, Electric Literature of 623-50-7 , the main research area is alc aryl halide deoxygenative arylation metallaphotoredox.
Metal-catalyzed cross-couplings are a mainstay of organic synthesis and are widely used for the formation of C-C bonds, particularly in the production of unsaturated scaffolds1. However, alkyl cross-couplings using native sp3-hybridized functional groups such as alcs. remain relatively underdeveloped2. In particular, a robust and general method for the direct deoxygenative coupling of alcs. would have major implications for the field of organic synthesis. A general method for the direct deoxygenative cross-coupling of free alcs. must overcome several challenges, most notably the in situ cleavage of strong C-O bonds3, but would allow access to the vast collection of com. available, structurally diverse alcs. as coupling partners4. Authors report herein a metallaphotoredox-based cross-coupling platform in which free alcs. are activated in situ by N-heterocyclic carbene salts for carbon-carbon bond formation with aryl halide coupling partners. This method is mild, robust, selective and most importantly, capable of accommodating a wide range of primary, secondary and tertiary alcs. as well as pharmaceutically relevant aryl and heteroaryl bromides and chlorides. The power of the transformation has been demonstrated in a number of complex settings, including the late-stage functionalization of Taxol and a modular synthesis of Januvia, an antidiabetic medication. This technol. represents a general strategy for the merger of in situ alc. activation with transition metal catalysis.
