DOWNLOAD EBOOKTransition metal-catalyzed cross-couplings provide a powerful means to assemble carbon-carbon (C-C) and carbon-heteroatom (C-X) bonds. Although Pd catalysis is most commonly used in these transformations, Ni catalysis offers a valuable alternative due to the low cost and high reactivity of Ni. More importantly, Ni catalysis has proven effective for the activation of traditionally inert carbon-heteroatom bonds and therefore provides exciting opportunities with regard to chemical reactivity and synthetic applications. Chapter one, two, and three describe the development of practical cross-coupling methodologies. Chapter one explains the amination of aryl sulfamates and carbamates that relies on an air-stable Ni(II) precatalyst. Chapter two introduces the development of green cross-couplings of phenolic derivatives and aryl halides to form biaryls. Subsequently, the couplings of heterocycles, which are commonly encountered in natural product synthesis and in the pharmaceutical sector, are described. Chapter three describes the development of green cross-couplings of aryl sulfamates and chlorides to form aryl amines. Chapter four and seven concern the utility of amides as electrophilic cross-coupling partners. These traditionally unreactive moieties are activated by nickel and coupled to alcohols to form acyl C-O bonds. This study suggests that amides may serve as useful building blocks to construct carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom bonds. Chapter four describes the development of nickel-catalyzed activation of benzamides and chapter seven introduces the development of nickel-catalyzed activation of aliphatic amide derivatives. Chapter five describes the nickel-catalyzed activation of the acyl carbon-oxygen bonds of methyl esters through an oxidative addition process. The oxidative addition adducts, formed using nickel catalysis, undergo in situ trapping to provide anilide products. DFT calculations are used to support the proposed reaction mechanism, understand why decarbonylation does not occur competitively, and to elucidate the beneficial role of the substrate structure and Al(OtBu)3 additive on the kinetics and thermodynamics of the reaction. Chapter six focus on the nickel-catalyzed Heck cyclization for the construction of quaternary stereocenters. This transformation is demonstrated in the synthesis of 3,3-disubstituted oxindoles, which are prevalent motifs seen in bioactive molecules.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKTransition metal-catalyzed cross-coupling has had a significant impact onpharmaceutical, agrochemical, and materials science research. This broad class of synthetic reactions has dramatically streamlined the synthesis of molecules at the center of research in these areas and others. The development of cross-coupling reactions for such applications continues to occupy a central role in the synthetic organic chemistry community. The advent of photoredox catalysis and its merger with transition metal catalysis has further elevated this broader reaction platform by expanding the scope of accessible bond-forming and bond-breaking events. These advances in cross-coupling technology have seen widespread adoption in academic and industrial settings, but we are just beginning to understand how these processes function on a mechanistic level.This thesis describes the discovery of new reactivity within the broader context of nickel/photoredox dual-catalysis as well as studies into the mechanisms underlying multiple cross-coupling reactions within this regime. Chapter 2 details the discovery of a stereoselective approach to alkyne radical addition using carboxylic acids to effect an overall alkyne hydroalkylation process. In chapter 3, a nickel C-O reductive elimination process is studied in detail using transient absorption spectroscopy and stoichiometric organometallic experiments. Chapter 4 covers the use of multiple spectroscopic, kinetic, and organometallic studies to uncover the mechanism of a Ni/photoredox aryl amination reaction. Finally, the use of pulse radiolysis and spectroelectrochemistry to generate and study short-lived Ni(I) intermediates relevant to Ni/photoredox cross-coupling is disclosed in chapter 5.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn recent years, the Jarvo lab has developed the field of stereospecific nickel-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions of benzylic electrophiles. This chemistry allows for straightforward synthesis of asymmetric C--C bonds. The focus of this dissertation is on the study of the mechanism of these transformations, and the development of reductive cross-electrophile coupling reactions.First, the mechanism of the nickel-catalyzed Kumada cross-coupling reaction was studied via a 13C kinetic isotope effect experiment. This experiment indicated that oxidative addition of the nickel catalyst into the C--O sigma bond was the rate limiting step. Combining this data with a rate law allowed us to propose a catalytic cycle for this reaction. Additionally, the nickel-catalyzed deoxygenation of benzylic ethers was optimized for the formation of diaryl methanes. Deoxygenation performed best with a proton-rich Grignard reagent. We demonstrated that these Grignard reagents act as the hydride source for the reduction reaction.Next, an intramolecular nickel-catalyzed reductive cross-electrophile coupling reaction of benzylic ethers and alkyl chlorides was developed. This reaction proceeds with a variety of extended aromatic and heteroaromatic groups to produce cyclopropane rings in great yields and diastereoselectivity. This is the first example of a stereospecific reductive cross-electrophile coupling reaction, as well as the first to employ alkyl ethers and alkyl halides as the electrophiles.Finally, the work on nickel-catalyzed reductive cross-electrophile coupling reactions was expanded to synthesize vinylcyclopropanes from allylic ethers and alkyl halides. This reaction occurs with both alkyl fluorides and alkyl chlorides. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported cross-electrophile coupling reaction of an alkyl fluoride. Ring contraction proceeds with high stereospecificity, providing selective synthesis of either diastereomer of di- and tri-substituted cyclopropanes. The utility of this methodology is demonstrated by several synthetic applications including the synthesis of the natural product dictyopterene A. 2-Vinyl-4-fluorotetrahydrofurans also undergo stereospecific ring contractions, providing access to synthetically useful hydroxymethyl cyclopropanes.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKTransition-metal catalyzed cross-coupling reactions are powerful methods for the synthesis of natural products and medicinal compounds. Cross-coupling reactions of secondary alkyl electrophiles are currently more challenging than those of aryl or vinyl halides, but these reactions enable the construction of tertiary stereogenic centers with control of configuration. Several methods have been reported for the stereoconvergent cross-coupling of alkyl halides using chiral nickel catalysts. Herein, we report the development of a stereospecific cross-coupling reaction of enantioenriched benzylic ethers using achiral nickel catalysts. We initially performed mechanistic studies to determine the stereochemical course of established nickel-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions. A deuterium-labeled alkylborane reagent was used to establish that transmetalation from boron to nickel occurs with retention of configuration. In addition, these studies establish that alkylnickel intermediates are stereochemically stable under these cross-coupling conditions. A stereospecific cross-coupling reaction of benzylic ethers with alkyl Grignard reagents has been developed. Enantioenriched benzylic ethers, derivatives of easily synthesized chiral secondary alcohols, undergo cross-coupling with high enantiospecificity using an achiral nickel catalyst. The method was applied to the asymmetric synthesis of a biologically active diarylethane, a common structural motif in medicinally relevant compounds. Initial mechanistic studies are consistent with a rate-limiting oxidative addition that is facilitated by a magnesium Lewis-acid. The cross-coupling method has been extended to include aryl Grignard reagents for the asymmetric synthesis of triarylmethanes. The reaction proceeds in high enantiospecificity and employs an ether leaving group capable of chelating to magnesium ions. The method was applied to the asymmetric synthesis of an anti-breast-cancer agent.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKHomogeneous organometallic complexes have become an indispensable tool as they are employed as catalysts for a large number of chemical transformations. Ancillary ligands, organic molecules that bind to the metal center, are critical for fine tuning the performance of these catalysts. The initial portion of this thesis describes a comparative survey of several state-of-the-art ligands for Pd catalyzed C-O cross-coupling reactions. As part of this survey two sets of conditions are employed: reactions carried out at 90 °C, using 1 mol % Pd, and room temperature reactions, using 7 mol % Pd. In these comparisons, it was found that Rockphos was the ligand of choice for reactions at room temperature, as well for electron rich electrophiles. The Josiphos variant, CyPF-tBu, was the optimal ligand for reactions at elevated temperatures, as well as for activated electrophiles. Many ligands that have found use in Pd chemistry have been repurposed for use in Ni catalysis. While this an effective strategy, it is not necessarily ideal. The bisphosphine PAd-Dalphos has been tailored for Ni catalyzed monoarylation of ammonia, and primary amines. Here, ammonium, methylamine, and ethylamine salts are successfully used as cross-coupling partners employing microwave heating. High yielding reactions, utilizing as little as 1 mol % Ni can be completed in as little as 5 minutes under these conditions. In an effort to establish trends of reactivity in Ni catalysis, the complex (DPEphos)Ni(mesityl)Br was developed for both C-N, C-C cross-coupling reactions. This complex was first established in the cross-coupling of secondary amines, and azoles with activated aryl chlorides. The observation of PhB(OH)2 required as a catalyst activator lead to the development of this complex as a catalyst for C-C cross-coupling using unstable 5-membered heterocyclic boronic acids for challenging biheteroaryl formation. Here reactions conducted at room temperature were found to be comparable to the previous state-of-the-art Ni catalysis. In addition, 3-pyridinyl-boronic acids were also successfully employed. While the scope of reactivity with such challenging substrates was modest, the work herein represents a step forward as only a small handful of examples exist for Ni catalyzed reactions.
