ABSTRACT: The photochemical [2 + 2] cycloaddition reaction in crystalline materials is one of most important routes for the synthesis of cyclobutane compounds, which are otherwise difficult to prepare by conventional organic synthesis. In this perspective, a series of olefins that undergo photochemical [2 + 2] cycloaddition reactions is summarized and categorized according to their various functionality. Using these olefins, a range of cyclobutane derivatives were prepared by this [2 + 2] cycloaddition protocol.

1. INTRODUCTION: Photochemical reactions are widely used in daily life, such as in printing, computing and healthcare. However, photochemical reactions are usually considered to be synthetic tools of last resort due to their low yields and selectivities.1-3 Nevertheless, a number of complex and exotic organic intermediates can efficiently be synthesized by photochemical reactions.4-9 Indeed, application of photochemical [2 + 2] cycloaddition reactions in the construction of cyclobutane derivatives has grown in popularity and become a highly active field of research.10-16 Because cyclobutane motifs were found in many complex natural compounds and its potential biological activity.17 During the past few decades, special attention has been paid to the structural transformations through photochemical [2+2] cycloaddition reactions in the solid states or crystals. In this area, organizing the two precursor olefin molecules into a suitable space is obligatory for satisfactory conversion of the photochemical reaction.18 During the 1960s, Schmidt et al.19-20 proposed a well-known topology for photochemical reactions based on the intensive study of the solid-state photochemistry of cinnamic acid derivatives. Furthermore, a minimum amount of atomic or molecular movement was also essential for inducing this solid-state reaction. According to Schmidtʹs postulates, the key to photochemical reaction under crystalline conditions is as follows: (1) the two olefins should be oriented in parallel; (2) the distance between these two olefins should be generally between 3.5 Å and 4.2 Å. In order to promote this reaction, several protocols were developed. For instance, MacGillivray et al.21 applied hydrogen-bond-driven or coordination-driven self-assembly. Harada and Ogawa et al.22 presented a study of the effects of the pedal motion in solid-state reactions. Vittal et al.1,23 studied single-crystal to single-crystal (SCSC) [2 + 2] photodimerizations of 3D metal-organic frameworks. Ramamurthy and Sivaguru et al.2 presented diverse organic structures, such as solvent-free crystals and water-soluble host-guest assemblies, which were found to be efficient synthetic tools to control [2 + 2] photodimerization. This perspective is focused on the current state of the art of photochemical [2 + 2] cycloaddition reactions of different kinds of functionalized olefins, for construction of a variety of cyclobutane derivatives. Herein, we have summarized and categorized the research progress of this chemistry according to the various functionalities of the olefins. From these olefins, a number of different types of cyclobutane derivatives were achieved by this protocol.

2. PYRIDYL GROUPS 2.1. BISPYRIDYL GROUPS 1,2-Bis(4-pyridyl)ethylene (4,4ʹ-bpe, 1, Scheme 1) is one of the most frequently studied olefins in terms of the [2 + 2] photodimerization reaction. This unit has been shown to undergo photochemical cycloaddition using a range of templates, such as diols24, thioureas25,26, and dinuclear iridium or rhodium complexes,27-30 to produce rctt-tetrakis(4-pyridyl)cyclobutane (4,4ʹ-tpcb, 2, Scheme 1). This work has already been summarized in a number of reviews.1-3,6-9,20-22,31 Readers are advised to consult these articles for details.32-40 For example, a dinuclear molecular clip template in the form of organometallic macrocycle facilitate a [2+2] photochemical

rctt-1,2-bis(2-pyridyl)-3,4-bis(4-pyridyl)cyclobutane (2,4ʹ-tpcb, 4), was obtained in almost quantitative yield. Subsequently, trans-1-(2-pyridyl)-2-(3-pyridyl)ethylene (2,3ʹ-bpe, 5) was co-crystallized with resorcinol to give a 2(resorcinol)‧2(2,3ʹ-bpe) assembly.43 This was then irradiated,

Trans-1-(2-pyridyl)-2-(2-pyridyl)ethylene (2,2ʹ-bpe, 7) was unexpectedly co-crystallized with catechol via hydrogen bonding to form a supramolecular six-component assembly. This supramolecular unit was shown to undergo [2 + 2] photodimerization in the solid state to give rctt-tetrakis(2-pyridyl)cyclobutane (2,2ʹ-tpcb, 8) stereoselectively and in quantitative yield.44,45 Liu et al.46-48 demonstrated the coordination of metal ions with an unsymmetrical olefin, trans-1-(3-pyridyl)-2-(4-pyridyl)ethylene, (3,4ʹ-bpe, 9). Upon UV irradiation, a [2 + 2] photocycloaddition reaction took place and afforded head-to-head (HH) and head-to-tail (HT) photodimer isomers of cyclobutane derivatives, 10 and 11 with absolute regiospecificities.

Arylvinylpyridine was also shown to be able to undergo [2 + 2] photodimerization in a well-assembled form. As shown in Scheme 2, several phenylpyridylethylenes (12a-p) were disclosed to proceed photochemical [2 + 2] cycloaddition reactions in crystalline states. Eventually, HT products (13a-p) can be regioselectively obtained by applying different templates.25,26,49-60 The packing arrangement of olefins in solid/crystal are generally the essential of the regiospecific photodimerization reactions. Yamada et al.49 described the essential role of pyridinium-π interactions between 4-styrylpyridine (4-spy, 12a) in acidic media, which gave a HT product (13a) after photochemical [2 + 2] cycloaddition. Pyridinium-π interactions between substrates also resulted in the selective formation of the HT dimer (13a) during the photolysis.50 In some cases, HH products, 13aʹ, 13bʹ, 13gʹ, 13iʹ, 13lʹ and 13mʹ can also be formed (Scheme 2). For example, 4-spy (12a) coordinated to Ag(I) ions and formed an assembly via Ag···Ag and Ag···C(phenyl) interactions. The metal-organic solid [Ag2(12a)4][CF3SO3]2 underwent [2 + 2] photodimerization to give a cyclobutane product 13aʹ stereoselectively and quantitatively (Figure 2).58 Compound 12m co-crystallized with Ag(I) to form a metal-organic complex, which forms face-to-face perfluorophenyl-perfluorophenyl interactions (C6F5···C6F5) and argentophilic forces (Ag···Ag),

2.4. PYRIDINE- AND CARBOXYLIC-ACID-SUBSTITETED GROUPS Pyridine- and carboxylic-acid-substituted olefins were also tested for their ability to undergo photochemical [2 + 2] cycloaddition reactions. The compound trans-3-(4-pyridyl) acrylic acid (4-PA, 23) reacted with CF3CO2H or H2SO4 to form salts with different patterns in the solid states, and photolytically provided 2,4-bis(4-pyridyl)-cyclobutane-1,3-dicarboxylic acid (24) and 3,4-bis(4-pyridyl)-cyclobutane-1,2-dicarboxylic acid (25), respectively (Scheme 8).66 In the solid state of 4-PA in the presence of CF3CO2H, 4-PAH+ cations were found in infinite parallel orientation in head-to-tail fashion, however, the orientation of 4-PAH+ cations was found to be in head-to-head fashion when H2SO4 was introduced. As a result, two stereoisomers of cyclobutane derivatives were stereoselectively synthesized by a solid-state photochemical [2 + 2] cycloaddition reaction quantitatively. The same group found that the anions of these salts play a key role in directing the packing of 4-PAH+ in the solid state. The selective formation of HT-photodimer 24 (Scheme 8) was also realized when he anions Cl–, ClO4–, and BF4– were used.67 Similarly, trans-3-(2ʹ-pyridyl)acrylic acid (2-PA) was combined with HCl, CF3CO2H, and H2SO4 to give 2,4-bis(2ʹ-pyridyl)-cyclobutane-1,3-dicarboxylic acid (HT-rctt-2,2ʹ-BPCD) in the context of [2 + 2] cycloaddition reaction in the solid states.68 In addition, the HH orientation of trans-(3ʹ-pyridyl) acrylic acid (3-PA) was shown to flip to HT with the ClO4− salt to produce HT-rctt-3,3ʹ-BPCD.

Interestingly,

both

the

HT-

and

HH-dimers

of

trans-2-(4-pyridyl)-4-vinylbenzoic acid (HPVBA) could be obtained from H2SO4 by changing its concentration during crystallization. Both salts undergo photodimerization in HH or HT fashion resulting in the formation of the corresponding products.69,70

Biradha et al.71 showed that the unsymmetrically substituted olefins 4-pyridylacrylamide (26a), and the methyl ester of 4-pyridylacrylic acid (26b), coordinated with Ag(I) to form the complexes [Ag(26a)2(NO3)], and [Ag(26b)2(NO3)]‧MeOH. Irradiation of these complexes afforded HH dimers 27a,b (Scheme 9) in nearly quantitative yield (Scheme 9).

Unsymmetrical olefins containing amide groups (UBO) were tested for their ability to undergo photochemical cycloaddition reactions.72 The pure organic UBO materials 27a and 27b were shown to provide HH/HT dimers, 28a,b/28aʹ,bʹ, under different conditions (Scheme 10). For example, the formation of 28a from 27a was realized by SCSC transformation in the presence of silver ion template (Figure 6).

Scheme 11 In 2016, the trisubstituted pyridyl olefins 31a and 31b were introduced and coordinated with Ag(I)X to obtain the metal-organic solids [Ag(31a)2](OTs)·3(H2O) and [Ag2(31b)4][OTf]2.75 These assemblies were then photolytically reacted to generate 32a and 32b, respectively (Scheme 12).

Scheme 12 The compound (E)-methyl-3-(pyridin-3-yl)prop-2-enoate (3-PAMe, 33) was assembled by 4,6-di-X-res (X = Cl, Br, I; res = resorcinol) and subsequently underwent two sorts of photo-induced cycloaddition in the solid state to provide cyclobutane compounds 34 and 34ʹ, respectively, according to the template (Scheme 13).76,77

Scheme 13 Trans-cinnamaldehyde 35 was coordinated to [Ag(cpi)CO2CF3]n (cpi = cinnamaldehyde N-(4-pyridyl)imine) and underwent a regioselective [2 + 2] photodimerization to form 1,3-bis((4-pyridyl)imine)-2,4-bis(phenyl)cyclobutane (cpi-cb, 36, Scheme 14).78 The pyridyl group was then removed to afford the aldehyde-functionalized cyclobutane α-truxilaldehyde.

ARYL GROUPS Diphenylethylene (37) underwent sliding/pedal motion to meet Schmidt’s criteria in the solid state.22 Solid-state photo-induced cycloaddition of olefin bonds can afford cyclobutane compound (38, Scheme 15). In contrast, intramolecular cyclization between phenyl group and olefinic bond was observed in solution to generate compound 38ʹ (Scheme 15).62

In 2016, MacGillivray et al. reported that trans-1,2-bis(4-iodotetrafluorophenyl)ethane was able to assemble with 1,8-di(4-pyridyl)naphthalene (DPN) to form a 2(DPN)·2 assembly through N···I halogen

Scheme 17 4. CARBOXYLIC ACID GROUPS Trans-4,4ʹ-stilbenedicarboxylic acid (H2SDC, 43, Scheme 18) was found to react with 1,3-diaminopropane (DAP) and subsequently underwent photodimerization in the solid state to give rctt-1,2,3,4-tetrakis-(4ʹ-carboxyphenyl)-cyclobutane (TCCD, 44), quantitatively (Figure 7).83 A series of metal salts formed “supramolecular synthons” when combined with various amines, providing 1,2,3,4-tetrakis-(4ʹ-carboxyphenyl)cyclobutane via photochemical [2 + 2] cycloaddition.84 A metal-organic salt of K2SDC was also successfully utilized to form K4TCCB·4H2O

(H4TCCB

tetrakis-1,2,3,4-(4ʹ-carboxyphenyl)cyclobutane).85

The

photoproduct additionally underwent the reversible cleavage of its cyclobutane ring. Three alkali metal salts of trans,trans-muconate (muco) led to the formation of Li2muco, Na2muco, and K2muco, respectively.86 These salts underwent a [2 + 2] photodimerization and subsequent Cope rearrangements to yield cycloocta-3,7-diene-1,2,5,6-tetracarboxylate in the crystalline state.

As shown in Scheme 20, a series of carboxylic acid substituted olefins could undergo [2 + 2] photodimerization in the solid state to produce corresponding cyclobutane products with the assist of suitable templates.89-100 Trans-cinnamic acid (47a) could be assembled using a double salt of diamines, and underwent [2 + 2] photodimerization in the solid state to mainly give β-truxinic acid (48aʹ).92 Similarly, trans-2,4-dichlorocinnamic acid reacted with the diamine double salt of 1,2-trans-diaminocyclohexane to give a β-dimer via [2 + 2] photodimerization.89 For instance, Kariuki et al.95 reported two polymorphs of 3-fluoro-trans-cinnamic acid (β1 and β2, 47b). Both polymorphs underwent photochemical [2 + 2] cyclodimerization upon UV irradiation to produce 3,3ʹ-difluoro-β-truxinic acid (48b) in almost quantitativeyield. In 2013, Sparkes et al.97 pointed out that 4-bromo-trans-cinnamic acid (47d) possessed a temperature-dependent phase transition. A head-to-head [2 + 2] photodimerization reaction took place in the solid state to produce a carboxylic acid dimer (48dʹ, Scheme 20). Taddei et al.98 reported a new molecular salt [(4-aminocinnamic acid)H]Br with two polymorphic modifications.

After removal of Ag(I), the cyclobutane-based polyimidazolium products (76a,b, Scheme 32) were obtained. However, the photochemical reactions of silver complexes 74a,b in the solid states failed. The intramolecular [2 + 2] cycloaddition reaction of 77a giving the cyclobutane derivative 78a in quantitative yield in the solid state. In contrast, the photochemical reaction of 77b in the solid state was quite slow and the conversion to 78b is only about 25% after 72 h (Scheme 33).

Moreover, a synthetic strategy for the preparation of a series of polyimidazolium macrocycles containing terminal cinnamic esters was also developed. The length and width of the complex could be adjusted by altering the size and shape of the substituents on the ligands, and subsequently provided polyimidazolium macrocycles via [2 + 2] photodimerization.123-125 7. CONCLUSIONS In this perspective, a series of functionalized olefins are summarized in relation to their photochemical [2 + 2] cycloaddition chemistry. Based on the wealth of examples, the [2 + 2] photodimerization is already a very useful tool for the synthesis of cyclobutane derivatives. Moreover, the photoproducts have been applied in the synthesis of coordination polymers (CPs) such as MOFs. We believe that the future holds much promise for further research into the photochemical [2 + 2] cycloaddition reaction, leading to diverse photoproducts and applications.
