Title: Carbonate-promoted C–H carboxylation of electron-rich heteroarenes

Abstract

C–H carboxylation is an attractive transformation for both streamlining synthesis and valorizing CO₂. The high bond strength and very low acidity of most C–H bonds, as well as the low reactivity of CO₂, present fundamental challenges for this chemistry. Conventional methods for carboxylation of electron-rich heteroarenes require very strong organic bases to effect C–H deprotonation. Here we show that alkali carbonates (M₂CO₃) dispersed in mesoporous TiO₂ supports (M₂CO₃/TiO₂) effect CO₃^2- promoted C–H carboxylation of thiophene- and indole-based heteroarenes in gas–solid reactions at 200–320 C. M₂CO₃/TiO₂ materials are strong bases in this temperature regime, which enables deprotonation of very weakly acidic bonds in these substrates to generate reactive carbanions. In addition, we show that M₂CO₃/TiO₂ enables C3 carboxylation of indole substrates via an apparent electrophilic aromatic substitution mechanism. No carboxylations take place when M₂CO₃/TiO₂ is replaced with un-supported M₂CO₃, demonstrating the critical role of carbonate dispersion and disruption of the M₂CO₃ lattice. After carboxylation, treatment of the support-bound carboxylate products with dimethyl carbonate affords isolable esters and the M₂CO₃/TiO₂ material can be regenerated upon heating under vacuum. Our results provide the basis for a closed cycle for the esterification of heteroarenes with CO₂ and dimethyl carbonate.

A closed cycle Esterifying Aromatic Hydrocarbons with CO2 and Alcohol

Journal Article Xiao, Dianne J. ; Chant, Emma D. ; Frankhouser, Amy D. ; ... - Nature Chemistry

The ability to functionalize hydrocarbons with CO2 could create opportunities for high-volume CO2 utilization. Current methods to effect carbon–carbon bond-formation between hydrocarbons and CO2 require stoichiometric consumption of very resourceintensive reagents to overcome the low reactivity of these substrates1–7. Here, we report a two-step cycle that converts aromatic hydrocarbons, CO2, and alcohol into aromatic esters without consumption of stoichiometric reagents. Our strategy centers on the use of catalysts composed of an alkali carbonate (M2CO3, M+ = K+ or Cs+) dispersed over a mesoporous support. We show that nanoscale confinement disrupts the crystallinity of M2CO3 and engenders strong base reactivity atmore »« less

Improving Carbonate-Promoted C–H Carboxylation Using Mesoporous Carbon Supports

Journal Article Chant, Emma D. ; Li, Chastity S. ; Kanan, Matthew W. - ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering

C–H carboxylation is an attractive way to utilize CO₂ for chemical production provided that it does not consume resource-intensive reagents. Alkali carbonates dispersed into the pores of mesoporous supports display strongly basic reactivity under CO₂, allowing them to be used as base promoters for C–H carboxylation of (hetero)arenes in the absence of other reagents or catalysts. Mesoporous oxides are convenient support materials, but only a relatively small fraction of the dispersed carbonate (ca. 10-20%) is converted to carboxylate products when metal oxide supports are used. Here we compare mesoporous oxide and carbon supports and investigate the dependence of carbonate reactivitymore »« less

A bacterial flavin‐dependent oxidoreductase that captures carbon dioxide into biomass

Journal Article Mattice, Jenna ; Streit, Bennett ; Prussia, Greg ; ... - FASEB Journal

Atmospheric carbon dioxide is used as a carbon source for building biomass in plants and photosynthetic microbes. Non‐photosynthetic processes that also fix carbon dioxide have more recently been discovered. This research focuses on a microbial mechanism for coupling acetone to CO ₂ to make a central metabolite, acetoacetate. The key reaction is catalyzed by NADPH‐2‐ketopropyl‐coenzyme M oxidoreductase/carboxylase (2‐KPCC), a bacterial enzyme that is part of the flavin and cysteine‐disulfide containing oxidoreductase family (DSORs) which are best known for reducing metallic or disulfide substrates. Our research asks: how has nature repurposed a DSOR to, uniquely, break a C‐S bond and thenmore »« less

Cobalt-bridged secondary building units in a titanium metal–organic framework catalyze cascade reduction of N-heteroarenes

Journal Article Feng, Xuanyu ; Song, Yang ; Chen, Justin S. ; ... - Chemical Science

We report here a novel Ti₃–BPDC metal–organic framework (MOF) constructed from biphenyl-4,4'-dicarboxylate (BPDC) linkers and Ti₃(OH)₂ secondary building units (SBUs) with permanent porosity and large 1D channels. Ti–OH groups from neighboring SBUs point toward each other with an O–O distance of 2 Å, and upon deprotonation, act as the first bidentate SBU-based ligands to support Co^II-hydride species for effective cascade reduction of N-heteroarenes (such as pyridines and quinolines) via sequential dearomative hydroboration and hydrogenation, affording piperidine and 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline derivatives with excellent activity (turnover number ~ 1980) and chemoselectivity.

In order to facilitate oxidative addition chemistry of fac-coordinated rhodium(I) and iridium(I) compounds, carbene–bis(oxazolinyl)phenylborate proligands have been synthesized and reacted with organometallic precursors. Two proligands, PhB(OxMe2)2(ImtBuH) (H[1]; OxMe2 = 4,4-dimethyl-2-oxazoline; ImtBuH = 1-tert-butylimidazole) and PhB(OxMe2)2(ImMesH) (H[2]; ImMesH = 1-mesitylimidazole), are deprotonated with potassium benzyl to generate K[1] and K[2], and these potassium compounds serve as reagents for the synthesis of a series of rhodium and iridium complexes.
