Abstract:The availability and application of direct, functional group-compatible C–H activation methods for late-stage modification of small-molecule bioactives and other valuable materials remains an ongoing challenge in organic synthesis. In the current study, we demonstrate that a LED-activated, photoredox-mediated, Pd(OAc)2-catalyzed C–H arylation, employing a phenyldiazonium aryl source and either tris(2,2′-bipyridine)ruthenium(II) or (2,2′-bipyridine)bis[3,5-di-fluoro-2-[5-(trifluoromethyl)-2-pyridinyl-kN][phenyl… Show more
“…Chelation is believed to be key in this initial activation event, based on the superiority of this system relative to a phenylpyrimidine counterpart. 12 The Ru(II)/ (III)-photoredox cycle, triggered by light, is well-established in the literature 7h and in our described system photoactivation is brought about by a commercial LED light. Single-electron transfer from the photoexcited Ru(II)*-species to the diazonium salt results in dissociation of the latter to generate an aryl radical.…”

The current C–H arylation occurs independently of pre-existing substituent effects, thus broadening the synthetic scope with regard to substrate diversity.…”

“…Introduction of the triate was achieved with triuoromethane-sulfonic anhydride in DCM, in the presence of excess TEA. 12,18 Triate derivatives 9 and 10 were submitted to treatment with NaHCO 3 in MeOH, under reux, to achieve conversion to the corresponding methyl ethers, 11 (70%) and 12 (76%), respectively, by means of addition-elimination. Each of the desired methyl ethers was accompanied by a percentage (<30%) of the triate methanolysis productpyrimidin-2-ol 7 or 8.…”
“…Having identified an emerging need to address the issue of C–H arylation in structurally complex substrates of medicinal relevance, while taking into account chemical functionality tolerance and applicability considerations, we have recently investigated a 2,6-diphenylpyrimidine series of polysubstituted substrates under mild (r.t., light-induced) C–H phenylation conditions ( Scheme 1C ). 12 These involved Pd( ii )-catalysis combined with Ru( ii )- or Ir( iii )-photoactivation to generate phenyl radicals from a readily accessible phenyldiazonium precursor. This methodology, which afforded C–H phenylation on challenging substrates regioselectively, was inspired from pre-existing work by Sanford and co-workers 7 f , h and was adapted/extended by our team, for application on the system at hand.…”

Increasing the resistance to current antimicrobial agents has posed a pressing need for the development of new antimicrobial agents. We, therefore, benefit from the antimicrobial characteristics of pyrimidine derivatives to prepare a new 4-(4bromophenyl)-6-methyl-2-thioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine-5-carbohydrazide ligand. The ligand complexes of (3d; Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, and Zn) and 4d -Cd metals are also prepared and characterized by different techniques. The ligand acts as a neutral bidentate and exhibited octahedral geometry. In vitro, the antibacterial activity of the ligand and its complexes against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli was investigated. Also, the antifungal against Candida albicans and Aspergillus flavus was evaluated. The results showed that the produced complexes have antibacterial activity higher than the ligand. The Cd(II) complex showed antifungal activity higher than the other complexes.
