Evolution of Organic Super Electron Donors

J. A. Murphy

Department of Pure and Applied Chemistry, University of Strathclyde, 295 Cathedral Street, Glasgow G1 1XL, United Kingdom * [email protected]

My research group has been fortunate to develop a number of simple organic electron donors, structurally related to enols, enolates and enamines; in this way, we have built upon the excellent pioneering work of many people including Bunnett,1 Rossi2 and Narasaka.3 Our starting point was to ask whether a neutral organic ground state molecule could reduce an aryl halide. The search for such a molecule led us to understand some of the factors that control the power and selectivity of organic electron donors, and their scope as reducing agents.

Being coloured reagents, they readily absorb visible and near-UV light; this adds to their power as donors, and allows them to tackle even more challenging synthetic tasks. This presentation will give an overview of developments relating to these electron donors from our current perspective.

Radical-Polar Crossover: Manifold Implications for Synthesis

S. Z. Zard

Laboratoire de Synthèse Organique, Ecole Polytechnique, 91128 Palaiseau, France. [email protected]

Abstract. Our research group is mostly concerned with the discovery and development of new reactions and processes that could be useful in organic synthesis. As is usually the case in scientific research, the interplay between conjecture and chance observation underlies much of our work. Unexpected events often bring a fresh lighting to the system being examined and open doors hitherto unsuspected. Misconception has thus played an important role by allowing us to uncover a number of new radical and non-radical reactions of some generality involving sulfur compounds, acetylenes, oximes, and related derivatives: we simply followed the logical consequences of our observations and went where the chemistry took us. In this lecture, the crossover from the radical to the cationic manifold that can take place in some of these reactions will be presented and the various mechanistic and synthetic implications discussed briefly.

Free-Radical Additions to Olefins. Recent Developments and Applications

Y. Landaisa

a Institute of Molecular Sciences, University of Bordeaux, UMR-CNRS-5255, 351 cours de la libération, 33405 Talence, France

* [email protected] The regioselective free-radical addition onto olefins has attracted a considerable interest as it gives rise to useful intermediates for organic synthesis starting from readily available material.1 In this context, our laboratory has developed three-component radical functionalization of olefins, relying on the addition of two carbon fragments across the olefinic skeleton, providing adducts with two new C-C bonds along with additional functional groups. Carbo-alkynylation and carbo-oximation as well as carbo-aminomethylation were thus devised, using various olefinic partners and sulfones as radical traps.2 More recently, we extended this chemistry to the development of a one-pot carbo- alkenylation of olefins,3 as well as a useful carbo-cyanation.4 The scope and limitations of these methodologies will be discussed, along with their application to the total synthesis of natural alkaloids.5 Efforts towards the development of tin-free versions of these processes will also be disclosed.

α-Bromoacrylate as radical acceptor in dialkylzincs-mediated radical-polar crossover processes, theoretical investigation and synthetic applications.

Under non-degassed medium ethyl -bromoacrylate reacts with diethylzinc to give a bromocyclopropane. The reaction successively involves a radical addition followed by an SH2 at zinc, conjugate addition of the resulting enolate to the electrophilic substrate and finally a ring closure.[1] In the presence of t-butyl iodide the bromocyclopropane resulting from the addition of t-butyl radical is formed.

Theoretical calculations were performed to get a better insight into the detailed mechanism. They highlight the impact of zinc(II) chelation on the formal SH2 step.

Photoredox Catalysis for the Generation of Carbon Centered Radicals and Synthetic Applications

C. Ollivier

UPMC Univ-Paris 06 – Sorbonne Universités, Institut Parisien de Chimie Moléculaire (UMR CNRS 8232) 4 Place Jussieu, C. 229, 75005 Paris, France [email protected] Visible-light photoredox catalysis has emerged as a valuable and a greener alternative to generate radicals by single electron transfer reactions from an appropriate photocatalyst - which can be a polypyridine complex of transition metal or an organic dye - that absorbs light in the visible region. Since the pioneering studies of Kellogg, Pall and Deronzier, important contributions have been reported for synthetic purposes. In this context, we investigated various radical transformations1 involving photoreduction of ketoepoxides, ketoaziridines, onium salts and O-thiocarbamates. We took advantage of the reactivity of the photogenerated radicals to create new carbon-carbon bonds and related mechanistic studies were performed. Our next endeavors concerned the photocatalyzed oxidation of stabilized carbanions such 1,3-dicarbonyl enolates and more extensively bis- catecholato silicates. Because of their low oxidation potentials, the later have proved to be exquisite sources of radical entities which can be engaged in diverse intermolecular reactions such as vinylation, alkynylation and conjugate additions. The bis-catecholato silicates were also shown to behave as excellent partners of dual photoredox-nickel dual catalysis leading in an expeditious manner to libraries of cross coupling products.

New horizons for Organic Electron Donors

*[email protected]

The astonishing recent advances of their reactivities in fundamental organic chemistry have raised a real interest for reducing agents with totally organic neutral structures and exceptionally negative redox potentials.1 Strong organic electron donors (OEDs) are capable of single- or double-electron transfer to organic substrates under mild and homogeneous conditions, promoting bond formations through the generation of radical or anionic intermediates. Major contributions have been made in this field demonstrating the efficiency of OEDs in the selective reduction of challenging chemical bonds.2 The OEDs thus represent serious rivals to highly aggressive metal-based reducers and emerge as an attractive novel source of reducing electrons in many aspects.

Despite a great tunability, approaches involving OED-promoted electron transfers have been under-exploited, limiting the visibility of academic and industrial applications. Their convenience of manipulation and storage is still hampered by several technical parameters that could dissuade chemists of their usage. In order to extend their functionalities, our research primarily focus on the development of new methodologies, essential to outline the potential of organic electron donors. Our recent results in the development of masked OED-systems and the exploration of unprecedented applications in the field of material science will be presented.3

Julie Broggi, received her M.Sc. in organic chemistry from the Université de Nice Sophia-Antipolis (France) in 2005 and then completed her Ph.D. on nucleoside chemistry in 2009 under the supervision of Prof. Luigi Agrofoglio at the Université d’Orléans (France). Her Ph.D. work focused on the applications of transition-metal complexes in the synthesis of nucleoside derivatives, such as triazolo-carbanucleosides and phosphononucleosides. These potential smallpox inhibitors were synthesized in racemic or enantioselective series. During this Ph.D., she spent some time as visiting fellow in the group of Prof. Steven P. Nolan at the Institute of Chemical Research of Catalonia (Spain). She studied the contribution of copper and palladium complexes, bearing N-heterocyclic carbene ligand, in cycloaddition, N-arylation or transfer hydrogenation reactions. For the study of their mechanism of action, she used NMR spectroscopy at variable temperature and isotopic-labelling experiments. Early 2009, she moved to the School of Chemistry of the University of St Andrews (UK) to continue working with Prof. Nolan as post-doctoral fellow. She worked on the synthesis of imidazolium salts and the corresponding free carbenes along with the synthesis of ruthenium catalysts and their applications in metathesis reactions. In the context of a metathesis European network (project EUMET - CP-FP 211468- 2), she supervised the training of junior group members. In 2010, she was appointed ATER and then Maître de Conférences (Lecturer) in the PCR group of the Institut de Chimie Radicalaire (ICR). She is involved in the synthesis of novel organic electron donors and their stable latent precursors. These new organic reducers are used as powerful and selective alternative tools to metallic derivatives in reduction strategies through single- or double-electron transfers. she also explores their reactivity in the reduction of uninvestigated functional groups and for unprecedented applications including nucleoside or polymer chemistry.

Photopolymerization initiators: Synthesis and photochemical studies

D. Gigmes

Aix Marseille Univ, CNRS, Institut de Chimie Radicalaire, Marseille, France

[email protected]

Nowadays, photoinitiated polymerization is one of the preferred techniques for a large range of applications such as coatings, inks and adhesives, dentistry, microelectronics, laser direct imaging technology and 3D printing.1-3 Indeed, photopolymerization presents several advantages such as fast polymerization kinetics even at room temperature, the absence of solvents limiting the formation of volatile organic compounds and the possibility to irradiate with high precision specific zones allowing the construction of tailored patterns. However, the employment of UV light, generally required for this technique, remains a major issue due to its high energy and the toxicity of the associated irradiation sources. To overcome this drawback, photoinitiating systems able to initiate polymerization under soft light irradiation sources is currently the subject of intense efforts.3 In this context, recently we have synthesized a large library of photosensitive molecules based on naphthalimide and diketopyrrolopyrrole derivatives exhibiting for some of them a remarkable effiency to initiate the polymerization under soft irradiation sources.4,5 Hence, in this communication, the synthesis and the polymerization abilities of the most relevant prepared compounds as well as their photochemical behaviour will be presented.

Complexation of boron with N-Heterocyclic carbenes stabilizes boryl radicals and makes them planar -type radicals. This has important consequences for the reactivity of NHC-borane complexes. The radical stabilization ensures that they can be introduced in organic free-radical synthesis and the  donation makes the NHC-boryl radicals nucleophilic.

In the talk we will show that NHC-boranes are exquisite reagents for organic reactions and photopolymerization in organic and disperse media.

Molecular Catalysis of the Photochemical Reduction of CO2 into CO and beyond: on the Road to Solar Fuels

J. Bonin,* H. Rao and M. Robert

Université Paris Diderot, Sorbonne Paris Cite, Laboratoire d’Electrochimie Moléculaire UMR 7591 CNRS, 15 rue Jean-Antoine de Baïf, 75205, Paris Cedex 13 *[email protected] Facing the current environmental and energy issues, the activation of small molecules such as water, oxygen and carbon dioxide represents a main research challenge.1 In particular, the generation of solar fuels, namely hydrogen, carbon monoxide, methane or methanol, using catalysts made of abundant and non-toxic materials and with a minimum energy input is a long term strategic objective. To efficiently convert electrons into chemical energy stored in molecular bonds, either by electrochemical or photochemical ways, processes require a selective and robust catalysis, which necessitates its intimate understanding at the molecular scale. In this presentation, I will present both fundamental and applied studies developed at LEM on the use of molecular homogeneous catalysts based on fourth-period transition metals (Fe, Co, Ni), 2 3-6 and in particular iron porphyrins, to catalyze the photochemical reduction of CO2 into CO, and beyond.7

Surface functionalization by model complexes of copper enzymes: the “self- induced electroclick” approach

N. Le Poula,*

aLaboratoire CEMCA, UMR CNRS 6521, Université de Bretagne Occidentale, Brest, France *[email protected] The immobilization of biomimetic redox devices onto solid supports is of particular importance for the development of efficient sensors and catalysts. It also raises the fundamental question of coupled electron transfer to reactivity at a metal center. An appealing strategy to address this issue is to graft a metal center in a well pre-organized and controlled way, such as in self-assembled monolayers (SAMs). In this context, we have developed a procedure based on the self-induced electrochemical immobilization of Cu complexes onto pre-modified gold electrodes through a Cu(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition (“electroclick” reaction).1 Several molecular and supramolecular biomimetic complexes have been successfully grafted according to this approach.2-3 Two types of applications have been tested: catalytic reduction of nitrite ions4 and selective detection of alkylamines5 (Figure) in an aqueous medium.

Buchera * aUniv Lyon, Ens de Lyon, CNRS UMR 5182, Université Claude Bernard Lyon 1, Laboratoire de Chimie, F69342, Lyon, France. bUniversité Grenoble-Alpes, CNRS, Département de Chimie Moléculaire (UMR 5250), F38400, Grenoble, France. *[email protected] The ability to control the structure and organization of molecular materials has emerged in the past decade as a major scientific objective that is mainly motivated by exciting foreseeable applications in nanoscience. Enormous technologic interests are for instance at stake in being able to devise molecular objects that could respond to external stimuli by changes in structure and function. These particular properties can lead to applications in various domains as (i) in molecular electronics, (ii) in analytic science, with switchable hosts allowing the controlled binding/release of pollutants or drugs, (iii) in materials science with the development of adaptive supramolecular polymers. In this lecture, the syntheses and detailed physico-chemical properties of a series of switchable molecular architectures whose movements can be triggered by electrochemically driven self- assembly of organic radicals will be presented.1-8 Particular emphasis will be given to electron- responsive tweezer-like molecules allowing to control the organization within self-assembled coordination oligomers/polymers. The dynamic properties of these redox-responsive molecular architectures and molecular materials will mainly be discussed on the basis of electrochemical, spectroelectrochemical and ESR experiments supported by quantum chemical calculations. +ne

Solar driven water-splitting into hydrogen and oxygen, also referred as artificial photosynthesis, has emerged as a very attractive sustainable approach to produce the fuel H2. Molecular approaches to generate H2 photochemically typically involve the association of three-components, a light- harvesting antenna (photosensitizer), a H2-evolving catalyst, and a sacrificial electron donor in homogeneous solution.1 If a large number of such photocatalytic systems have been reported, very few of them are able to operate in pure aqueous solution, without co-organic solvent, because of the lower stability/solubility of molecular compounds in water. However, this is an important requirement for their further applications in photoelectrochemical water-splitting devices. This talk 2 will present our efficient systems for the visible-light-driven H2 production in water using rhodium 3 2+ and cobalt complexes as catalysts and [Ru(bpy)3] as photosensitizer in the presence of ascorbate as sacrificial electron donor. The advantages of coupling catalyst and photosensitizer by a covalent bond will be also presented as well as our promising results towards the development of systems only based on earth abundant elements by using a new water soluble organic dye which represents a very 2+ attractive alternative to [Ru(bpy)3] .

Engineering of photocatalytic reactions in microreactors

Timothy Noël*

*Eindhoven University of Technology, Micro Flow Chemistry & Process Technology, Eindhoven, The Netherlands. [email protected]

Photoredox catalysis is emerging as a new and powerful tool in synthetic organic chemistry to facilitate photochemical reactions by means of visible light.[1] Notable examples involve the use of ruthenium(II)polypyridine complexes which upon irradiation produce a photoexcited state. This photoexcited state gives rise to a single electron transfer process (SET) with organic substrates which can undergo subsequently a synthetic transformation. Whereas a myriad of different reactions have recently succumbed to this mode of catalysis, it is important to note that several challenges still remain with respect to high catalyst loadings, extended reaction times, scalability, and generality of the catalyst system.

In this oral communication, we will report on the acceleration of gas-liquid photocatalytic reactions in continuous photomicroreactors.[2] We will go into detail on both engineering and chemical/catalytic aspects of continuous-flow photochemistry. Relevant examples from our group will be detailed on during the presentation.[3] Also, we will report on the development of a solar photomicroreactor, which allows the efficient harvesting of solar energy for photocatalytic transformations.[4]

Visible light photoredox catalysis with radical anions

I. Ghosh, L. Marzo, R. Shaik, A. Das and B. König*

Faculty of Chemistry and Pharmacy, University of Regensburg, Regensburg, Germany *[email protected]

Visible light photocatalysis has made a huge impact on recent developments in chemical synthesis. We have explored over the last two years the use of radical anions as photoactive intermediates in SRN 1 type reactions. An initial photoinduced electron transfer produces a radical anion, which is colored and stable. This is excited again to a transient doublet state that is strongly reducing. Transfer of the excess electron to a substrate, e.g. an aryl halide, initiates the aromatic substitution reaction. Our initial system based on perylenediimide1 suffered from low solubility of the photocatalyst and was improved by using the well-established organic dye rhodamine 6G.2

The reaction principle was established for C-C cross coupling reactions,3 the synthesis of annulated heteroarenes4 and the synthesis of phosphonates.5

Recently, we were able to improve the performance of the reaction further by introducing a sensitization-induced electron transfer instead of direct excitation of the redox active photo- catalysts. This new principle generates highly reactive synthesis intermediates with unprecedented ease from green and blue light.

We describe here for the first time the activation of diazonium salts by visible light photoredox catalysis providing a much cleaner reaction and good to excellent product yields. The “Photo Meerwein” reaction has since then been widely applied in organic synthesis.

New photoredox-induced cascade reactions

Malte Brasholza,*

aUniversity of Hamburg, Department of Chemistry – Institute of Organic Chemistry, Hamburg, Germany [email protected] Photoredox-mediated one-electron reduction of organic halides is a mild and efficient method to generate the corresponding carbon-centered radicals. While the reduction of activated acyl halides can readily be accomplished using common ruthenium(II) polypyridyl photocatalysts, unactivated alkyl, alkenyl and aryl halides require more strongly reducing conditions, and in particular iridium(III) polyheteroaryl complexes possess suitable redox potentials to bring about these more challenging reductive transformations.1 Photoinduced free radical additions have been utilized extensively in the synthesis of functionalized heterocycles, however, mostly giving aromatic products. We developed dearomative radical additions onto indoles, and an iridium(III)-catalyzed reductive radical (4+2)- cyclization between N-iodoethylindoles and alkenes led to valuable tricyclic benzindolizidine products.2 Further extension of our methodology enabled a new stereoselective synthesis of functionalized hexahydrocarbazoles, based on an unprecedented dearomative radical (4+2)- cyclization/1,4-addition cascade between 3-(2-iodoethyl)indoles and acceptor-substituted alkenes. The photoredox-induced cascade reaction simultaneously generated three C-C and one C-H bonds, along with three contiguous stereogenic centers.3

dearomative radical (4+2)-cyclization (4+2)-cyclization / 1,4-addition cascade

Mechanistic aspects of these dearomative radical cyclizations of indole derivatives will be discussed, as well as synthetic applications of the heterocyclic products, which are highly valuable intermediates for the synthesis of novel antibiotics as well as unnatural ring homologs of polycyclic indoline alkaloids.

Photoinduced Electron Transfer in Base-promoted Homolytic Aromatic Substitution and Related Systems. Is t-butoxide anion a key ingredient?

In the recent years, there is a booming of research in transition metal-free couplings of ArX to arenes to form biaryls (eq 1). These reactions are triggered by alkali metal tert-butoxides in the presence of various additives via Base-promoted Homolytic Aromatic Substitution (BHAS).1,2 In 2008, the original report presented by Itami showed that KOtBu promoted the arylation of pyrazine and other electron‐poor arenes from ArI or ArBr, under elevated temperatures or MW irradiation.3 Later, different research groups have reported the construction of biaryls and stilbene derivatives from unactivated aromatic compounds by direct C-H activation of benzene or styrene using NaOtBu or KOtBu in the presence of a range of organic additives as ligands.2 As a consequence, the role of these organic additives in radical initiation attracted much research interest and different mechanisms have been proposed.4

Previously we reported on photoredox reactions for synthesis of biaryls (BHAS) and styrenes (Mizoroki−Heck-type) as a new alternative to induce these transformations at room temperature (eqs 1 and 2).5 Now, we propose a new alternative to induce these photoreactions, that involves dimsyl anion as a key ingredient. However, C-H functionalization of alkenes is produce without any solvent. Computational studies were performed to help to understand the initiation steps of these processes.

“The Palme d’Or goes to …”. A search for the best functional for dealing with anionic organic species

M. Puiatti;a,* J. L. Borioni;b D. M. A. Vera b and A. B. Pierinia,

aINFIQC- Instituto de Investigaciones en Físicoquímica de Córdoba, Córdoba, Argentina b Dpto. Química, Fac. Cs. Exactas y Naturales, Universidad Nacional de Mar del Plata, Mar del Plata, Argentina * [email protected] During the last few decades, density functional theory (DFT) has become the method of choice in quantum chemical studies. Indeed, many experimental investigations routinely include such calculations, using a popular code, a standard basis, and a standard functional approximation.1 It is well known that DFT has provided approximations that work quite well for some problems and fail for others.2 Hence, a proper recommendation should be to search for the DFT functional that works better within the problem to be studied. In the present study we addressed the overall performance of 23 different DFT functionals and ab initio methods for studying anionic organic species. In order to evaluate its scope and limitations, electron affinities (EA) and reduction potentials 0 (퐸푅푒푑) were computed. A set of 60 molecules was employed for the calculation of EAs, in the range 0 of 0 to -3.4 eV. Besides, 62 compounds were selected for the computation of the 퐸푅푒푑, with potentials, measured in acetonitrile, from -2.71 V to 0.06 V (vs. standard hydrogen electrode, SHE). For compounds with negative EAs, hybrid GGA gave better results than pure and meta GGA double hybrid functionals and ab initio methods yield poorly with MADs higher than 0.5 eV. 0 The calculations of 퐸푅푒푑 are strongly dependent on the quality of the solvation energies of the 0 charged species. This was evidenced in the correlation of calculated absolute 퐸푅푒푑 vs. experimental 0 퐸푅푒푑. However, there is a significant improvement after the use of a proper redox partner. The best results were obtained with hybrid GGA functionals, B3PW91 and PBE0. TPSSh and M06 were the better meta GGA. Pure GGA functionals gave good results, with low dispersion, but high MADs, that could improve by choosing a proper reference.

The ideal scenario should give a podium with some functionals that outperform the others. However, there is a suitable DFT functional for each problem instead of a universal one that could solve almost all the situations within different conditions.

Calculations demonstrate that single electron transfer processes replace in some cases the two-electron transfer water nucleophilic attack mechanism, the main operating mode for second- and third-row transition metals.

Charge Transfer Processes : Prime Role of Optimized Molecular Orbitals

V. Roberta,*, A. Domingoa, T. Kraha and B. Meyera

aLaboratoire de Chimie Quantique, CNRS Université de Strasbourg, Strasbourg, France *[email protected]

abstract : The key role played by the molecular orbitals in describing electron transfer processes is examined in mixed-valence compounds (see Figure, Fe3+/Fe2+ biomimetic non-heme1) and analogues. It is suggested that the extent of electronic reorganization induced by intervalence charge transfer can reach up to several electron-volts2,3. By means of ab initio calculations (wave-function type, CASSCF/CASPT2), it is shown that the energetic profile shows strong similarities to the Marcus’s theory. Such observation questions the standard quantum chemistry approaches used to describe internal electron transfer phenomena in molecular science devices.

Exploring the reactivity of the Kagan’s reagent from a theoretical perspective

The Kagan’s reagent (SmI2) is one of the most versatile single-electron reducing agent in organic synthesis. Since its seminal report,1 the scope off application of this reagent has been largely enriched by adjusting the reaction conditions and especially the proper solvent / co-solvent(s) combinations.2 Modeling single electron transfer mediated by f-element proved to be inaccessible until recently.3 This contribution details the modeling strategy developed for the modeling of the reactivity SmI2 in complex environments and addresses how co-solvents such as HMPA, water and amine not only modify the reducing power of SmI2 but also strongly affect reaction mechanisms. More precisely, our pioneering mechanistic investigation addresses the mechanism by which alkyl- halides and various carbonyl derivatives are selectively reduced by SmI2 depending on the reaction conditions.4 A particular emphasis will be laid on the role played by bimetallic intermediates and subsequent Bimetallic Proton Coupled Electron Transfer (BPCET).
