ABSTRACT: A general and practical method for copper-catalyzed cross-coupling of allyl phosphates with stable perfluoroalkylzinc reagents has been developed. The reaction proceeds under mild reaction conditions with high efficiency, good functional group tolerance, and high regio- and stereoselectivities and provides general, straightforward, and useful access to allyl-perfluoroalkyl compounds. Preliminary mechanistic studies reveal that the allyl copper intermediate may be involved in the catalytic cycle.

T

considerable effort has been dedicated to the efficient introduction of perfluoroalkyl groups.8 The generation of allyl−RF bonds, however, remains synthetically challenging, particularly via transition metal catalysis. Matsubara described Pd-catalyzed coupling of allyl- and alkenylstannanes with perfluoroalkyl iodides,9 whereas Cu-mediated nucleophilic trifluoromethylation of allyl halides was also reported.10 In 2011, a copper-catalyzed Heck-type trifluoromethylation of terminal alkenes through allylic C−H bond activation was described by the group of Liu and Fu.11 Furthermore, Wang,12 Buchwald,13 Qing,14 and Sodeoka15 independently described the copper-catalyzed trifluoromethylation of alkenes using electrophilic or nucleophilic trifluoromethylating reagents and involving the addition of the CF3 radical to alkenes. Very recently, Sodeoka and co-workers realized a perfluoroalkylation of unactivated alkenes with acid anhydrides as the perfluoroalkyl source.16 Most of the reactions mentioned above focus on radical trifluoromethylation; perfluoroalkylation (C2F5, C3F7, C4F9, C6F13, etc.) via an allyl−M−RF intermediate reductive elimination remains a challenge.17 Moreover, it is hard to find an efficient perfluoroalkylating reagent. Only CF3SiR3, C2F5SiR3, C3F7SiR3, Togni, and Umemoto reagents are commercially available, yet they are very expensive. As

ransition metal-catalyzed allylation is one of the most frequently employed transformations in organic synthesis because of the presence of allyl moieties in many biologically active compounds.1 Moreover, the synthetical usefulness of allylic motifs is ascribed to the fact that the carbon−carbon double bond can transfer to a variety of structures after simple manipulations.2 The scenery is clearly dominated by Pd catalysts, but during the past decade, a range of other metals, especially late transition metals (Ru, Rh, Ir, etc.),3 made their way into the limelight. Inspired by the earlier studies of coppercatalyzed perfluoroalkylation of aryl boronic acids4 and aromatic halides,5 we hypothesized that the copper-catalyzed cross-coupling of allylic electrophilies with stable perfluoroalkylating reagents may be possible and would improve the preparation of allylated perfluoroalkyl compounds. Although Tsuji−Trost reaction involving addition of a nucleophile to a (π-allyl)palladium intermediate offers a powerful tool for the preparation of allyl-substituted compounds, the reaction of highly electron-deficient perfluoroalkyl groups through this strategy has rarely been studied.6 Consequently, developing new transition metal-catalyzed allylative cross-coupling reactions for widespread applications is still highly desirable. Organic compounds bearing a perfluoroalkyl group (RF) have been adopted in a wide range of applications such as agrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, and materials because of the unique properties of the fluorine atom.7 Over the past decade, © 2018 American Chemical Society

Note

The Journal of Organic Chemistry cheap and safe perfluoroalkyl sources, perfluoroalkyl halides18 and perfluoroalkanesulfonyl halides19 are prone to generation of perfluoroalkyl radicals. In 2011, Daugulis and co-workers synthesized (RF)2Zn from 1H-perfluoroalkane by deprotonative metalation with TMP2Zn and used it in copper-catalyzed perfluoroalkylation of aromatic iodides.20 These reagents are currently confined to the generation of C(sp2)−RF bonds,4,5 which creates the interesting challenge of establishing new transition metal-catalyzed perfluoroalkylation reactions to form C(sp3)−RF bonds (Scheme 1). Herein, we report a practical

examined a series of copper catalysts, such as CuSCN, Cu(OAc)2, and Cu(acac)2, employed in these reactions (Table 1, entries 2−4, respectively), and a higher yield was observed only with Cu(acac)2 (Table 1, entry 4, 80% yield). The nature of the solvent and ligand was critical to the reaction efficiency, and the use of ether solvent and L2 (4,7-diphenyl1,10-phenanthroline) was found to provide the most efficient reaction, providing 3ac in an 85% isolated yield (Table 1, entry 9). The control experiments revealed that a copper intermediate is involved in the reaction catalytic cycle (Table 1, entry 10). To our surprise, a 52% isolated yield was obtained without a ligand (Table 1, entry 11). DMPU dissociated from 2c, as a ligand, chelates with a copper center to stabilize the catalytic intermediate.5b An attempt to decrease the load of Cu(acac)2 to 5 mol % resulted in the yield dropping to 71% (Table 1, entry 12). Meanwhile, the choice of leaving group on the allyl substrate was crucial; the reaction of the corresponding acetate, halides, or carbonate instead of the phosphate resulted in low yields or no formation of the desired product. Under the optimum reaction conditions, a variety of allylated perfluoroalkyl compounds were generated by this method and good to high yields and regioselectivities were obtained (Scheme 2). Generally, alkyl-substituted allyl phosphates bearing functional groups apart from the carbon−carbon double bond coupled with 2c effectively (3a−f). It is noteworthy that many versatile functional groups, including base- and nucleophile-sensitive moieties, such as silyl ether, acetate, phosphate, halide, and hydroxyl, showed good tolerance toward the reaction conditions, providing opportunities for further functionalization without the need for protection/deprotection sequences. Importantly, product 3d also revealed an excellent chemical selectivity at allyl phosphate over alkyl phosphate. However, it should be mentioned that the reaction efficiency strongly depends on the nature of the steric hindrance on substrates. Substrates with bulky substituted groups near the reaction center (carbon−carbon double bond) gave the desired products with moderate yields (35−64%) and excellent regio- and stereoselectivities (3g−k). Furthermore, aromatic allyl phosphates were also suitable substrates, and reasonable yields with high stereoselectivities were still generated (3l−o). Notably, no branched product was observed with cinnamyl phosphates under this catalytic system. To prove the generality of these observations and evaluate the scope and limitations of this protocol, a wide range of other perfluoroalkylzinc reagents 2 were employed under optimized reaction conditions (Scheme 3). In a manner similar to that of perfluorobuthylation, allyl phosphates with versatile substituents gave moderate to good yields (49−77%) and high regioand steroselectivities (4a−6d). It should be noted that yields and selectivities are interrelated with the length of RF. The reaction with C2, C3 homologous perfluoroalkylzinc reagents afforded the desired products with yields and selectivities higher than those of C6 perfluoroalkylzinc reagents. In the catalytic process, the rate of transmetalation of the perfluoroalkyl group to the copper center from Zn(RF)2(DMPU)2 decreases due to the growing length of RF, which readily causes Schlenk equilibration of Zn(RF)2(DMPU)2 and ZnX2.21 For allyl phosphates with steric hindrance such as 1g, 1l, and 1m, the desired products were obtained with moderate yields and excellent regio- and stereoselectivities (4g−5n), thus suggesting that the steric effect still plays an important role in the yield and selectivity.

example of copper-catalyzed perfluoroalkylation of allyl phosphates with a broad range of substrates in moderate to high yields and with moderate to high stereo- and regioselectivities. Initially, allyl phosphate (E)-1a and bis(perfluoroalkyl)zinc reagent 2c were chosen as model substrates to investigate this reaction (Table 1). To our delight, the treatment of (E)-1a and 2c in the presence of a catalytic amount of CuI/phen in 1,4dioxane at 100 °C afforded 3ac in a 77% isolated yield with high regio- and stereoselectivity [>99:1 linear:branched, 18:1 E:Z (Table 1, entry 1)].

To investigate the regio- and stereoselectivity of the reaction, branched allyl phosphates 7 and 8 and (Z)-allyl phosphates (Z)-1p and (Z)-1l were also subjected to the standard reaction conditions (Scheme 4). In general, under the conditions described above, these substrates give the linear products predominantly as an E/Z mixture, with the (E)products as the major products, thus indicating that a π−allyl copper intermediate is involved in the catalytic process (eq 1). It should be noted that the stereochemical information about Z substrates was partially retained, which implies that the E/Z

mixtures were generated via at least two simultaneous pathways (eq 2). Although the exact mechanism of the reaction is still not clear, on the basis of the results reported by others,5,6 a plausible mechanism is proposed and shown in Scheme 5. The sequence begins with formation of copper catalyst I by in situ generation. Then, copper intermediate II is generated by transmetalation of the copper catalyst with zinc reagent 2. Subsequently, oxidative addition of (Z)- or (E)-1 with RFCu(I)Ln (II) would provide the key copper species (Z)or (E)-III, respectively. Finally, the reductive elimination 425

Preparation of E Compounds 1a, 1g−j, and 1l−o. To a stirred solution of ethyl 2-(diethoxyphosphoryl)acetate (1.97 g, 8.8 mmol) in anhydrous THF (20 mL) was added MeMgBr (2.7 mL, 8 mmol) at room temperature, and the mixture was stirred for 15 min. Aldehyde (848 mg, 8 mol) dissolved in THF (5 mL) was added at room temperature, and the mixture stirred for 4 h under reflux. After the mixture had been cooled to room temperature, the reaction was quenched with distilled water and the aqueous phase was extracted with EA (2 × 30 mL).

would lead to the desired allylated product (Z)- or (E)-3 and regenerate the Cu(I)Ln species (path A). Alternatively, a reversible pathway is used to form π−allyl copper complex IV from III by rapid σ−π conversion (path B), which would give (E)-3 as the major product, thus resulting in stereochemical inversion in Z substrates. In conclusion, we have demonstrated an efficient copper catalyst system for the perfluoroalkylation of phosphates with good to excellent yields and high regio- and stereoselectivities, which represents a useful, concise, and operationally simple method for preparing allyl−RF products. A preliminary study suggests that the reaction mechanism is complex and two main pathways leading to the desired allyl−RF products may be operating. Further studies to expand the substrate scope and its applications are now in progress in our laboratory.
