Abstract

A novel method for the zirconoarylation of alkynes was developed. TCQ-promoted reductive elimination of arylzirconate [LiCp2ZrAr(RC≡CR)], which was prepared by the reaction of zirconocene–alkyne complexes with aryllithium compounds, afforded trisubstituted alkenylzirconocenes. This reaction can afford multi-substituted olefins with high stereoselectivity.

Introduction

The controlled synthesis of multi-substituted olefins is one of the most challenging tasks in organic synthesis [1,2]. A series of reactions have been developed for the construction of substituted olefins. Among them, an important route is the addition of various reagents to nonactivated alkynes to form substituted olefins. For example, semihydrogenation of internal alkynes can afford disubstituted olefins (Scheme 1, route a) [3-5]. Hydrocarbonation [6,7] and hydrometalation/functionalization [8-11] of internal alkynes can afford trisubstituted olefins (Scheme 1, routes b and c), respectively. The most exciting progress was the carbometalation of internal alkynes [12-23], which involves simultaneous addition of a metal atom and an organic residue to alkynes. The newly formed carbon–metal bond can be used for further synthetic transformation toward multi-substituted olefins [24-36] (Scheme 1, route d).

Scheme 1: Transformation of alkynes to olefins.

A large number of carbometalation reactions of alkynes have been reported. Most of the carbometal reagents, which were used, contained Li, Mg, Cu, Zn, B, or Al [12-16]. In the last several decades also zirconium-mediated or -catalyzed organic reactions have been extensively investigated [37-39]. In addition, a series of organic reactions using zirconocene species have been reported, in particular for the reductive coupling of alkenes or alkynes with other unsaturated compounds [40-43]. On the other hand, carbozirconation of alkynes via reaction of zirconacyclopentenes with alcohols, allyl ethers, homoallyl bromides, vinyl ethers, alkynyl halides, and chloroformates gave ethylzirconation [17], allylzirconation [18,19], cyclopropylmethylzirconation [20], vinylzirconation [21], alkynylzirconation [22], and zirconoestification [23] products of alkynes, respectively. However, to the best of our knowledge, this method failed to fulfill arylzirconation of alkynes (Scheme 2).

[1860-5397-10-48-i2]

Scheme 2: Carbozirconation of alkynes via zirconacyclopentenes.

Recently, we have reported a p-chloranil (TCQ)-promoted reductive elimination reaction of the zirconate complex Li[Cp2Zr(C≡CR)3] toward geminal enediynes [44]. As part of our ongoing project on organozirconate chemistry [45-48], we envisioned that the use of an aryl ligand instead of one of the alkynyl ligands would provide an arylzirconation product of the alkyne. Herein we describe the TCQ-promoted reductive elimination of arylzirconate to afford an arylzirconation product of the alkyne, which can be converted to multi-substituted olefins through coupling with electrophiles (Scheme 3).

Scheme 3: TCQ-promoted reductive elimination of arylzirconate.

Results and Discussion

Initially, the reaction of Cp2Zr(PhC≡CPh)(DMAP) (1a), prepared by the reaction of Cp2ZrBu2 [48] with DMAP and diphenylacetylene according to reported literature [49], with phenyllithium produced arylzirconate 2a. To this mixture, 2 equivalents of p-chloranil (TCQ) were added and the reaction mixture was stirred for 12 h at room temperature. After being quenched with HCl solution, the desired triphenylethylene (3a) was isolated in 62% yield. When the reaction mixture was quenched with DCl solution, the deuterated product 3a-D was isolated in 60% yield with >95% of deuterium incorporation (Scheme 4). The deuterium experiment revealed the formation of triphenylvinylzirconocene 4a as intermediate.

[1860-5397-10-48-i4]

Scheme 4: TCQ-promoted arylzirconation of diphenylacetylene.

Under similar reaction conditions, a study on the substrate scope was carried out, and the results are summarized in Table 1. When diphenylacetylene was used as starting material, different aryllithium compounds were employed to afford triarylethylene in 38% to 62% isolated yields after being quenched with HCl (Table 1, entries 1–4). Bromination of the reaction mixture by NBS instead hydrolysis afforded bromotriphenylethylene in 37% isolated yield (Table 1, entry 5). When allyl bromide was employed as electrophile in the presence of CuCl, the allyltriarylethylenes were formed in 43% to 45% yields (Table 1, entries 6 and 7). Cross coupling with iodobenzene in the presence of CuCl/Pd(PPh3)4 afforded tetraarylethylene in 31% yield (Table 1, entry 8). When other diarylacetylene was employed in this reaction, the corresponding products were formed in 36% to 59% yields (Table 1, entries 9–12). No desired product was observed when alkylacetylenes were used.

aReaction conditions: Alkyne (1 mmol), [Cp2Zr(1-butene)(DMAP)] (1 mmol), ArLi (2 mmol), TCQ (2 mmol), electrophile (2 mmol). Tol = p-tolyl, Th = 2-thienyl, Naph = 1-naphthyl. bIsolated yield.

Recently, oxidative dimerization of alkenylcopper was reported to afford conjugated dienes and polyenes [44,50-57]. When triphenylvinylzirconocene 4a was reacted in the presence of CuCl and TCQ, the 1,1,2,3,4,4-hexaphenyl-1,3-butadiene (5) was formed in 43% isolated yield (Scheme 5). It is noteworthy that in this reaction two molecular alkynes and two aryllithium compounds were coupled in one-pot in the presence of Cp2Zr species to afford highly substituted 1,3-butadienes.

Scheme 5: Oxidative dimerization of 4a.

The pathway of the oxidation of zirconate 2 to vinylzirconocene 4 is not yet clear. A possible mechanism is proposed in Scheme 6. Coordination of TCQ to zirconium results in reductive elimination to afford vinylzirconocene(II) 6. Then intermediate 6 reacts with TCQ to form vinylzirconocene(IV) 4. The intermediate 4 reacts with electrophiles to afford multi-substituted olefin 3.

Conclusion

We have developed a novel method for the zirconoarylation of alkynes through TCQ-promoted reductive elimination of arylzirconate. This reaction can afford multi-substituted olefins with stereoselectivity.

Experimental

General Comments. All manipulations were conducted in Schlenk tubes and under a nitrogen atmosphere with a slightly positive pressure. Unless otherwise noted, all starting materials were commercially available and were used without further purification. Tetrahydrofuran (THF) was refluxed and freshly distilled from dark purple solutions of sodium and benzophenone under nitrogen atmosphere. 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectra were recorded on 300 MHz and 400 MHz NMR spectrometers with TMS as internal standard. GC–MS spectra were recorded on a Hewlett Packard GC–MS system.

Typical procedure for TCQ-promoted arylzirconation of alkynes

To a solution of Cp2ZrCl2 (1.2 mmol, 351 mg) in 5 mL THF, n-BuLi (2.4 mmol, 1.5 mL, 1.6 M in hexane) was added at −78 °C and the mixture was stirred for 1 h at the same temperature. To this solution, 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP, 122 mg, 1.0 mmol) was added. The resulting mixture was warmed to room temperature and stirred for 1 h. Diphenylacetylene (1.0 mmol, 178 mg) was added and the mixture was stirred for 1 h at the same temperature. Subsequently, PhLi (2.0 mmol) was added and the solution was stirred for 12 h at room temperature. Then TCQ (2.0 mmol) was added and stirred for another 12 h to afford alkenylzirconocene 4a. The mixture was quenched with HCl solution to afford product 3a in 62% isolated yield.
