Abstract

:
Reaction of 1,3-diphenylisobenzofuran (DPIBF) with 2-(iodoethynyl)(phenyl)-iodonium triflate at room temperature gave the expected Diels-Alder adduct, but using an excess of DFIBF (2 equiv.) and performing the reaction at 55 °C or heating at this temperature during the concentration stage, the initial orange solution or product mixture became dark brown and the products 1,2-phenylene-1,2-bis(phenylmethanone) and 2-(3-iodo-1,4-diphenylnaphthyl)(phenyl)iodonium triflate were obtained, which suggests an oxygen transfer between DPIBF and the initial adduct.

Graphical Abstract

1. Introduction

Some time ago, Stang et al. described the preparation of β-functionalized alkynyl(phenyl)iodonium triflates and 1,2-bis[[(phenyl)trifluoromethanesulfonyloxy]iodo]acetylene and their Diels-Alder reactions with different dienes, such as cyclopentadiene, 1,3-cyclohexadiene, 2,3-dimethylbutadiene, furan and 1,3-diphenylisobenzofuran (DPIBF, 2) [1,2]. They also described the reaction of these adducts with different nucleophiles to give the corresponding substitution products [3,4]. Recently, we described the preparation of (2-iodoethynyl)(phenyl)iodonium triflate (1) and its reaction with a 1,1-disubstituted cyclopentadienes to give the expected Diels-Alder adducts [5]. Herein, we describe an unexpected result observed in the reaction of triflate 1 with diene 2.

2. Results and Discussion

Triflate 1 was reacted with diene 2 (2 equiv.) in acetonitrile solution at room temperature for 20 h, and the orange reaction mixture was concentrated in a rotary evaporator at 55 °C, taking at a certain moment a dark brown color. Upon crystallization from CH2Cl2/Et2O, a mixture containing 1,2-phenylene-1,2-bis(phenylmethanone) (4) was obtained, diene 2 being not observed. Crystallization of the above mixture from CH2Cl2/toluene (twice) gave (3-iodonaphthalen-2-yl)(phenyl)iodonium triflate (5) in 54% yield, instead of the expected Diels-Alder adduct (3) (Scheme 1).

The 1H- and 13C-NMR data and the elemental analysis did not allow us to differentiate among triflates 3 and 5. However, the accurate mass measurement of the obtained product showed the molecular ion to have an m/z value (608.9567 amu) 16 units less than expected for the cation of triflate 3. This molecular ion might correspond to the cation of triflate 5. The structure of 5 was subsequently clearly established by X-ray diffraction analysis (Figure 1). Reaction of triflate 5 with NaI and CuI in acetonitrile [3] gave the recently described [6] 2,3-diiodo-1,4-diphenylnaphthalene (7), which was fully characterized (Scheme 2).

When the reaction of diene 2 (2 equiv.) and triflate 1 was carried out at room temperature for 24 h and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure without heating, a residue containing much starting diene 2 was obtained. Crystallization of this residue from CH2Cl2/Et2O, always at room temperature, gave triflate 3 in 67% yield. This triflate was not too stable, and at room temperature the light yellow solid initially obtained became dark within 24 h. It also decomposed on drying in vacuo at room temperature. However, it could be characterized by spectroscopic means (1H-, 13C- and 19F-NMR spectra and accurate mass measurement). The 1H- and 13C-NMR spectra could be completely assigned on the basis of 1H/1H homocorrelation (COSY 1H/1H) and 1H/13C heterocorrelation spectra (HSQC and HMBC sequences). Moreover, triflate 3, on reaction with NaI/CuI in acetonitrile (Scheme 2), was transformed in high yield into the new diiodide 6, whose structure was fully established on the basis of its analytical and spectroscopic data, including an X-ray diffraction analysis (Figure 2).

To establish the conditions under which triflates 3 or 5 are formed, we performed the reaction of diene 2 and triflate 1 under different conditions, always in acetonitrile. Thus, reaction of diene 2 (1.2 equiv.) and triflate 1 at room temperature for 30 min gave an orange solution. After concentration and crystallization of the orange residue from CH2Cl2/Et2O, without heating at any moment, triflate 3 was obtained in 92% yield. A similar reaction performed for 20 h gave triflate 3 in quantitative yield. Reaction of diene 2 (2 equiv.) and triflate 1 at 55 °C for 24 h gave a dark brown solution. After concentration and crystallization from CH2Cl2/Et2O and CH2Cl2/toluene (twice), always at room temperature, triflate 5 was obtained in 42% yield. When diene 2 (2 equiv.) and triflate 1 were reacted at room temperature for 30 min an orange solution was obtained, which on concentration in a rotary evaporator heating at 55 °C gave a dark brown residue. After crystallization as before, triflate 5 was obtained in 42% yield.
An attempt to reduce triflate 3 to 5 by reaction with an excess of dimethylsulfide in CH2Cl2 at room temperature left the starting triflate 3 unchanged. When the above reaction was carried out in a closed vessel at 55 °C, complete degradation of triflate 3, but not formation of triflate 5 was observed. A similar result was obtained on heating a solution of triflate 3 in acetonitrile at 55 °C for 3 h.
Consequently, it appears that triflate 3 is unstable and decomposes at temperatures around 55 °C. Decomposition of triflate 3 in the presence of DPIBF takes place in part by oxygen transfer between them. This transformation is clearly observed by a change in the color of the reaction mixture (solution or concentrate) from orange to dark brown.
A possible mechanism for the reaction of DPIBF with triflate 3 to give dione 4 and triflate 5 is given in Scheme 3, which starts with the electrophilic attack of the cation of triflate 3 on the electron-rich diene 2. Although DPIBF can be oxidized by air [7], it seems clear that in our case, most of dione 4 comes from the oxidation of DPIBF by adduct 3. As previously indicated, much diene 2 is observed in the reaction of triflate 1 with excess of DPIBF, when adduct 3 is the main product. Conversely, dione 4 but no diene 2 is the main by-product from the reaction of triflate 1 with an excess of DPIBF, if adduct 3 has been transformed into triflate 5.

3. Experimental

3.1. General

Melting points were determined in open capillary tubes. Unless otherwise stated, NMR spectra were recorded at 25 °C in CDCl3 solution: 1H-NMR (400 MHz), 13C-NMR (100.6 MHz), 19F (376.29 MHz). All chemical shifts (δH, δC and δF) are reported in parts per million (ppm) related to internal standards (CHCl3 at δH = 7.26 ppm, δC = 77.0 ppm and CF3COOH at δF −76.55 ppm). Assignments given for the 1H and 13C-NMR spectra are based on DEPT sequences, 1H/1H COSY, 1H/13C HETCOR (gHSQC and gHMBC sequences for one bond and long range correlations, respectively). In the case of triflate 3, previous assignment for the adduct of methyl 1-benzylcyclopenta-2,4-dienecarboxylate and triflate 1 were taken into account [5]. Coupling constants J are given in Hertz (Hz). Mass spectra were recorded on an LC/MSD-TOF instrunent (2006, Agilent Technologies), using electrospray (ESI-MS, positive mode, capillary: 3.5 kV, fragmentor: 215 V). Unless otherwise stated, IR spectra were recorded using the attenuated total reflection (ATR) technique and the absorption values are given as wavenumbers (cm–1). Elemental analyses were done at the Microanalysis Service of the Institut de Química Avançada de Catalunya (IQAC, CSIC, Barcelona, Spain). Column chromatography was performed on silica gel 60 A C.C. (35–70 mesh). For the thin layer chromatography (TLC), aluminum-backed sheets with silica gel 60 F254 were used and spots were visualized with UV light and/or 1% aqueous KMnO4.

To a magnetically stirred suspension of DPIBF (2, 150 mg, 0.55 mmol) in anhydrous acetonitrile (2.5 mL), a solution of triflate 1 (233 mg, 0.46 mmol) in anhydrous acetonitrile (1 mL) was added dropwise under an Ar atmosphere and the mixture was vigorously stirred at room temperature for 20 h. The orange solution was concentrated in vacuo at room temperature and the orange solid residue (418 mg) was treated with CH2Cl2/Et2O (1:3, 2 mL). The solid triflate 3 (356 mg, quantitative yield) was isolated as a light yellow solid, m.p. 80–83 °C (dec.) by decantation and washing with Et2O (3 × 0.5 mL) and CH2Cl2 (3 × 0.5 mL). On drying in vacuo at room temperature this salt became black. The salt was stable for weeks at 4 °C, but decomposed after standing at room temperature for one day.

The orange solution was concentrated in vacuo at 55 °C. In a certain moment the residue became dark brown. Crystallization of the above residue (1.31 g) from CH2Cl2/Et2O (3:10, 6.5 mL) gave a solid (1.02 g) mixture of triflate 5 and 1,2-phenylenebis(phenylmethanone) (4).

X-Ray diffraction data for triflate 5. A prismatic crystal (0.1 × 0.1 × 0.2 mm) was selected and mounted on a MAR345 diffractometer with an image plate detector. Unit-cell parameters were determined from 177 reflections (3 < θ < 31°) and refined by least-squares method.

4. Conclusions

Triflate 1 reacts with DPIBF at room temperature to give the corresponding Diels-Alder adduct 3 in high yield. Adduct 3 is thermally unstable, decomposing in solution at about 55 °C. Reaction of triflate 1 with an excess (2 equiv.) of DPIBF in acetonitrile solution at 55 °C gave a mixture of dione 4 and triflate 5. A similar oxygen transfer among triflate 3 and dimethylsulfide was not observed. To the best of our knowledge, no similar oxygen transfer has been ever described. Also, the easy access to diiodide 7 as compared with the described procedure [7] might be of interest in connection with the preparation of rubrenes [6,11].
