  • Silver-Mediated Oxidative Trifluoromethylation of Alcohols to Alkyl Trifluoromethyl Ethers.
    Organic Letters, 2015
    Co-Authors: Xiu-hua Xu, Feng-ling Qing
    Abstract:

    The development of an efficient and practical method for the preparation of alkyl trifluoromethyl ethers is urgently demanding. The silver-mediated oxidative O-Trifluoromethylation of primary, secondary, and tertiary alcohols with TMSCF3 under mild reaction conditions is established to provide a novel approach to a broad range of alkyl trifluoromethyl ethers. Further, this method is applied to the late-stage O-Trifluoromethylation of complex natural products and prescribed pharmaceutical agents.

  • silver mediated oxidative Trifluoromethylation of phenols direct synthesis of aryl trifluoromethyl ethers
    Angewandte Chemie, 2015
    Co-Authors: Jianbo Liu, Lingling Chu, Chao Chen, Zenghao Chen, Feng-ling Qing
    Abstract:

    Aryl trifluoromethyl ethers (ArOCF3) are prevalent in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and materials. However, methods for the general and efficient synthesis of these compounds are extremely underdeveloped and limited. Herein, we describe a highly efficient and general procedure for the direct O-Trifluoromethylation of unprotected phenols through a silver-mediated cross-coupling reaction using CF3SiMe3 as the CF3 source and exogenous oxidants. This novel oxidative Trifluoromethylation provides access to a wide range of aryl trifluoromethyl ethers from simple phenols. The mild process was also applied to the late-stage Trifluoromethylation of a medicinally relevant compound.

  • oxidative Trifluoromethylation and trifluoromethylthiolation reactions using trifluoromethyl trimethylsilane as a nucleophilic cf3 source
    ChemInform, 2014
    Co-Authors: Lingling Chu, Feng-ling Qing
    Abstract:

    ConspectusThe trifluoromethyl group is widely prevalent in many pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals because its incorporation into drug candidates could enhance chemical and metabolic stability, improve lipophilicity and bioavailability, and increase the protein bind affinity. Consequently, extensive attention has been devoted toward the development of efficient and versatile methods for introducing the CF3 group into various organic molecules. Direct Trifluoromethylation reaction has become one of the most efficient and important approaches for constructing carbon–CF3 bonds. Traditionally, the nucleophilic Trifluoromethylation reaction involves an electrophile and the CF3 anion, while the electrophilic Trifluoromethylation reaction involves a nucleophile and the CF3 cation. In 2010, we proposed the concept of oxidative Trifluoromethylation: the reaction of nucleophilic substrates and nucleophilic Trifluoromethylation reagents in the presence of oxidants.In this Account, we describe our recent studies of ox...

  • copper catalyzed oxidative Trifluoromethylation of terminal alkynes and aryl boronic acids using trifluoromethyl trimethylsilane
    Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2012
    Co-Authors: Xueliang Jiang, Lingling Chu, Feng-ling Qing
    Abstract:

    Trifluoromethylated acetylenes and arenes are widely applicable in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. In 2010, our group has reported the copper-mediated oxidative trifluomethylation of terminal alkynes and aryl boronic acids. This method allows a wide range of functional group tolerant trifluoromethylated acetylenes and arenes to be easily prepared. After the preliminary mechanistic studies of the oxidative Trifluoromethylation of terminal alkyne, an efficient copper-catalyzed oxidative Trifluoromethylation of terminal alkynes and aryl boronic acids has been developed. The catalytic protocol is successfully achieved by adding both the substrate and a portion of CF3TMS slowly using a syringe pump to the reaction mixture.

  • copper catalyzed direct c h oxidative Trifluoromethylation of heteroarenes
    Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2012
    Co-Authors: Lingling Chu, Feng-ling Qing
    Abstract:

    This article describes the copper-catalyzed oxidative Trifluoromethylation of heteroarenes and highly electron-deficient arenes with CF3SiMe3 through direct C–H activation. In the presence of catalyst Cu(OAc)2, ligand 1,10-phenanthroline and cobases tert-BuONa/NaOAc, oxidative Trifluoromethylation of 1,3,4-oxadiazoles with CF3SiMe3 proceeded smoothly using either air or di-tert-butyl peroxide as an oxidant to give the corresponding trifluoromethylated 1,3,4-oxadiazoles in high yields. Di-tert-butyl peroxide was chosen as the suitable oxidant for oxidative Trifluoromethylation of 1,3-azoles and perfluoroarenes. Cu(OH)2 and Ag2CO3 were the best catalyst and oxidant for direct oxidative trifluoromethyaltion of indoles. The optimum reaction conditions enable oxidative Trifluoromethylation of a range of heteroarenes that bear numerous functional groups. The prepared trifluoromethylated heteroarenes are of importance in the areas of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The preliminary mechanistic studies of these...
