Trialkylammonium (most notably N,N,N-trimethylanilinium) salts are known to display dual reactivity through both the aryl group and the N-methyl groups. These salts have thus been widely applied in cross-coupling, aryl etherification, fluorine radiolabelling, phase-transfer catalysis, supramolecular recognition, polymer design, and (more recently) methylation. However, their application as electrophilic methylating reagents remains somewhat underexplored, and an understanding of their arylation versus methylation reactivities is lacking. This study presents a mechanistic degradation analysis of N,N,N-trimethylanilinium salts and highlights the implications for synthetic applications of this important class of salts. Kinetic degradation studies, in both solid and solution phases, have delivered insights into the physical and chemical parameters affecting anilinium salt stability. 1H NMR kinetic analysis of salt degradation has evidenced thermal degradation to methyl iodide and the parent aniline, consistent with a closed-shell SN2-centred degradative pathway, and methyl iodide being the key reactive species in applied methylation procedures. Furthermore, the effect of halide and non-nucleophilic counterions on salt degradation has been investigated, along with deuterium isotope and solvent effects. New mechanistic insights have enabled the investigation of the use of trimethylanilinium salts in O-methylation and in improved cross-coupling strategies. Finally, detailed computational studies have helped highlight limitations in the current state-of-the-art of solvation modelling of reaction in which the bulk medium undergoes experimentally observable changes over the reaction timecourse.

The efficient conversion of aryl bromides to the corresponding aryl alkyl ethers by dual nickel/photocatalysis has seen great progress, but difficulties of recycling the photosensitizer or nickel complexes cause problems of sustainability. Here, we report the design of a novel, highly stable vinyl bridge 2D covalent organic framework (COF) containing Ni, which combines the role of photosensitizer and reactive site. The as-prepared sp2c-COFdpy-Ni acts as an efficient heterogeneous photocatalyst for C-O cross coupling. The sp2c-COFdpy-Ni can be completely recovered and used repeatedly without loss of activity, overcoming the limitations of the prior methods. Preliminary studies reveal that strong interlayer electron transfer may facilitate the generation of the proposed intermediate sp2c-COFdpy-NiI in a bimolecular and self-sustained manner. This all-in-one heterogeneous photocatalyst exhibits good compatibility of substrates and tolerance of functional groups. The successful attempt to expand the 2D COFs with this new catalyst into photocatalytic organic transformation opens an avenue for photoredox/transition metal mediated coupling reactions.

Paragraph 0066-0068, (2021/04/03)
The invention provides a method for preparing nitrogen-alkyl(deuterated alkyl)aromatic heterocycle and alkyl(deuterated alkyl)aryl ether compounds. The method adopted in the invention specifically comprises the following steps: firstly, adding an alkoxy base (MOR') or a combination reagent Q (comprising a base M'X, an alcohol C and a molecular sieve E) into a solvent B to be stirred; then, addingan aromatic compound D of nitrogen sulfonyl or oxygen sulfonyl into a mixture; separating and purifying after reaction to obtain nitrogen-alkyl(deuterated alkyl)aromatic heterocycle or alkyl(deuterated alkyl)aryl ether. The method can realize one-step conversion from an electron withdrawing benzenesulfonyl protecting group on a nitrogen or oxygen atom to an electron donating alkyl protecting group, avoids using highly toxic alkyl halide, and has advantages of being efficient, economical, environmentally friendly, mild in condition, good in substrate universality and high in yield; the prepareddeuterated compounds can be widely applied to the fields of pharmaceutical chemistry and organic chemistry synthesis.
