Description The thesis entitled “Design and Development of Metal-Free Cross Dehydrogenative Coupling Reactions for the construction of C-S, C-O and C-C bonds” is divided into three Chapters. Chapter 1 is presented in five parts, which reveals the cross dehydrogenative coupling (CDC) strategies for the C–S bond forming reactions through C–H functionalization strategy using heterocyclic thiols and thiones. Chapter 2 presents tetrabutyl ammonium iodide (TBAI) catalyzed chemoselective α-aminoxylation of ketones with N-hydroxyimidates using TBHP as oxidant under cross dehydrogenative coupling (CDC) strategy. Chapter 3 describes a transition metal-free Minisci reaction for the acylation of isoquinolines, quinolines, and quinoxaline.
Chapter 1
Iodine Promoted C-S Bond Forming Reactions using Dimethyl Sulfoxide as an Oxidant
Chapter 1 reveals the utility of cross dehydrogenative coupling (CDC) reactions for the formation of C–S bonds by employing C–H functionalization strategies.1 The direct functionalization of C–H bonds to form C–C and C–X (N, O, S and P) bonds using metal-free reaction conditions is an interesting research topic in recent years.2 Use of dimethyl sulfoxide as an oxidant is emerging as one of the research topics of great interest and utility.3 Heterocyclic thiols and thiones are important precursors for synthesizing a variety of pharmaceuticals and biologically active compounds.4 Therefore it is useful to develop CDC reactions using heterocyclic thiols and thiones as precursors. In this chapter, we describe CDC reactions of heterocyclic thiols and thiones for the sulfenylation of ketones, aldehydes, α, β unsaturated methyl ketone derivatives, pyrazolones, enaminones and imidazoheterocycles using DMSO as an oxidant

Iodine Promoted Regioselective α-Sulfenylation of Carbonyl Compounds using Dimethyl Sulfoxide as an Oxidant: In this chapter, a rare regioselective C–H sulfenylation of carbonyl compounds with heterocyclic thiones and thiols have been described using iodine and dimethyl sulfoxide as reagents. Thus, dimethyl sulfoxide (as an oxidant) and stoichiometric amount of iodine have been used for the sulfenylation of ketones using heterocyclic thiones. Whereas the sulfenylation of ketones with heterocyclic thiols required catalytic amount of iodine. This protocol offers a rare regioselective sulfenylation of (i) methyl ketones in the presence of more reactive α-CH2 or α-CH groups, and (ii) aldehydes under CDC method. A few representative examples are highlighted in Scheme 1.5 The application of this methodology has been demonstrated by synthesizing a few precursors for Julia-Kocienski olefination intermediates.

Regioselective Sulfenylation of α’-CH3 or α’-CH2 Groups of α, β Unsaturated Ketones using
Dimethyl Sulfoxide as an Oxidant: In this chapter, an interesting regioselective sulfenylation of α’-CH3 or α’-CH2 groups of α, β unsaturated ketones using dimethyl sulfoxide as an oxidant and catalytic amount of aq. HI (20 mol %) as an additive has been described. This eco-friendly method uses readily available, inexpensive I2 or HI and DMSO. This methodology exhibits a high regioselectivity without forming Michael addition product in the presence of strong acid such as aq. HI or iodine, which is difficult to achieve under cross dehydrogenative coupling (CDC) conditions. Current methodology exhibits a broad substrate scope. A few examples are shown in Scheme 2.6

Iodine Catalyzed Sulfenylation of Pyrazolones using Dimethyl Sulfoxide as an Oxidant: In this chapter, a sustainable and efficient strategy for the sulfenylation of pyrazolones has been described using metal-free conditions by employing DMSO as an oxidant and iodine as a catalyst. A variety of heterocyclic thiols, heterocyclic thiones and disulfides undergo C–H functionalization reaction with pyrazolone derivatives furnishing the corresponding sulfenylated products in short time. Most of the products are isolated in pure form without column purification. A few examples are presented in Scheme 3.7

Iodine-Catalyzed Cross Dehydrogenative Coupling Reaction: Sulfenylation of Enaminones using Dimethyl Sulfoxide as an Oxidant: In this chapter, synthesis of poly functionalized aminothioalkenes has been described using substoichiometric amount of iodine and DMSO as an oxidant. This metal-free methodology enables a facile sulfenylation of enaminones with heterocyclic thiols and thiones. This methodology is one of the simple approaches for the sulfenylation of enaminones under cross dehydrogenative coupling method. A few examples are highlighted in Scheme 4.8

Iodine-Catalyzed Cross Dehydrogenative Coupling Reaction: A Regioselective Sulfenylation of Imidazoheterocycles using DMSO as an Oxidant: In this chapter, a simple synthetic approach for the regioselective sulfenylation of imidazoheterocycles using iodine as a catalyst and DMSO as an oxidant under cross dehydrogenative coupling (CDC) reaction conditions has been demonstrated. This protocol provides an efficient, mild and inexpensive method for coupling heterocyclic thiols and heterocyclic thiones with imidazoheterocycles. This is the first report on sulfenylation of imidazoheterocycles with heterocyclic thiols and heterocyclic thiones under metal-free conditions. A few examples are shown in Scheme 5.9

Chapter 2

Chemoselective α-Aminoxylation of Aryl Ketones: Cross Dehydrogenative Coupling Reactions Catalyzed by Tetrabutyl Ammonium Iodide: In this chapter, chemoselective α-aminoxylation of ketones with N-hydroxyimidates catalyzed by tetrabutyl ammonium iodide (TBAI) has been presented. The coupling reaction of a variety of ketones with N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHSI), N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHPI), N-hydroxybenzotriazole (HOBt) or 1-hydroxy-7-azabenzotriazole (HOAt) using TBHP as oxidant has been investigated. This α-aminoxylation of ketones is chemoselective as aryl methyl ketones, aliphatic ketones as well as benzylic position are inactive under the reaction condition. A few examples are highlighted in Scheme 6.10 The application of this method has been demonstrated by transforming a few coupled products into synthetically useful vinyl phosphates.

A Transition Metal-Free Minisci Reaction: Acylation of Isoquinolines, Quinolines, and Quinoxaline: In this chapter, transition metal-free acylation of isoquinoline, quinoline and quinoxaline derivatives with aldehydes has been described by employing TBAB (tetrabutyl ammonium bromide, 30 mol %) and K2S2O8 as an oxidant under cross dehydrogenative coupling (CDC) reaction. This intermolecular acylation of electron-deficient heteroarenes provides an easy access and a novel acylation method of heterocyclic compounds. The application of this CDC strategy has been illustrated by synthesizing isoquinoline-derived natural products. A few representative examples are shown in Scheme 7.11
