Powdery, spherical nanoparticles (NPs) containing ppm levels of palladium ligated by t-Bu3P, derived from FeCl3, upon simple exposure to water undergo a remarkable alteration in their morphology leading to nanorods that catalyze Mizoroki-Heck (MH) couplings. Such NP alteration is general, shown to occur with three unrelated phosphine ligand-containing NPs. Each catalyst has been studied using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and cryogenic transmission electron microscopy (cryo-TEM) analyses. Couplings that rely specifically on NPs containing t-Bu3P-ligated Pd occur under aqueous micellar catalysis conditions between room temperature and 45 °C, and show broad substrate scope. Other key features associated with this new technology include low residual Pd in the product, recycling of the aqueous reaction medium, and an associated low E Factor. Synthesis of the precursor to galipinine, a member of the Hancock family of alkaloids, is suggestive of potential industrial applications.
Continuous Flow Synthesis of Quinolines via a Scalable Tandem Photoisomerization-Cyclization Process
Di Filippo, Mara,Baumann, Marcus

A continuous photochemical process is presented that renders a series of quinoline products via an alkene isomerization and cyclocondensation cascade. It is demonstrated that a high-power LED lamp generates the desired targets with higher productivity and efficiency than a medium-pressure Hg-lamp. The scope of this tandem process is established and allows for the generation of various substituted quinolines in high yields and with throughputs of greater than one gram per hour. Finally, this effective flow process is coupled with a telescoped hydrogenation reaction to render a series of tetrahydroquinolines including the antimalarial natural product galipinine.

Oxidative coupling of benzylamines and alcohols with methyl substituted N-heteroarenes such as quinolines and quinoxalines has been achieved using chloride, a sea abundant anion as the catalyst for practical synthesis of a wide range of E-disubstituted olefins in aqueous medium. Detailed mechanistic studies and control experiments were carried out to deduce the reaction mechanism which indicated that in situ formed ClO2- is the active form of the catalyst. We have successfully carried out a 1 g scale reaction using this methodology, and five pharmaceutically relevant conjugated olefins were also synthesized by this method in moderate to good yields.
