Abstract:
This study reports reactivity properties of Cu(III)−CF 3 compounds with anilines, wherein basicity‐dictated distinct reactivities are achieved, giving rise to formamides or hydrazines. Competing generation of difluorocarbene and N ‐centered radical is proposed that is controlled by the basicity of the reaction solution. Specifically, under acidic or neutral conditions, reaction of anilines with Cu(III)−CF 3 compounds produces formamides, where difluorocarbene is involved, undergoing aniline formylation. In contrast, in the presence of a base, this same reaction selectively gives hydrazines instead, where Cu(III)−CF 3 compounds act as an oxidizing reagent to allow dehydrogenative N−H/N−H coupling of two anilines through an N ‐centered radical. The scope of both reactions is studied, and application to medicinally relevant compounds is shown. This study shows the unusual use of high‐valent Cu(III) trifluoromethyl compounds as hydrogen‐abstracting reagents to allow dehydrogenative reactions. magnified image
