Abstract

We describe a palladium-catalyzed nondirected late-stage deuteration of arenes. Key aspects include the use of D2O as a convenient and easily available deuterium source and the discovery of highly active N,N-bidentate ligands containing an N-acylsulfonamide group. The reported protocol enables high degrees of deuterium incorporation via a reversible C–H activation step and features extraordinary functional group tolerance, allowing for the deuteration of complex substrates. This is exemplified by the late-stage isotopic labeling of various pharmaceutically relevant motifs and related scaffolds. We expect that this method, among other applications, will prove useful as a tool in drug development processes and for mechanistic studies.

Over the last decades the incorporation of hydrogen atom isotopes into organic molecules has received considerable attention and remains a key research goal in both academic and industrial research. (1) Isotopically labeled compounds feature a broad range of applications, starting from their use in the elucidation of reaction mechanisms (2) or as internal standards in mass spectrometry studies. (3) Isotopically labeled analogues of bioactive molecules play a critical role in drug discovery processes, for example in absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) studies to gain insights into their metabolic profile and toxicity. (4) In an increasing number of cases, deuterated molecules are marketed as new pharmaceuticals, (5) often characterized by improved pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties. These diverse applications have spurred continued interest in the development of convenient and robust synthetic methods to incorporate deuterium into complex aromatic scaffolds, which occur in many bioactive molecules and related compounds. (1d,e)
Methods such as the de novo synthesis of complex deuterated analogues and the introduction of D/T in prefunctionalized positions often prove to be time-consuming and cost-intensive. (6) Efforts have thus been made to establish methods for direct hydrogen isotope exchange (HIE) of aromatic C–H bonds that could in principle enable efficient postsynthetic incorporation of hydrogen isotopes into bioactive molecules. (1d,e,7)
Traditional methods for direct H/D exchange of arenes include pH-dependent methods (Scheme 1A), where the incorporation of deuterium is achieved by the use of Brønsted/Lewis acids, mostly via an SEAr-type mechanism. (8) Examples of base-mediated HIE reactions of arenes are also known. (9) Owing to the typically harsh reaction conditions, these methods are usually employed for simple arenes. Heterogenous methods for HIE of arenes are well-developed, and high activity can be achieved with many transition metals. (3e,10) This approach offers technical advantages like simple purification (11) but faces challenges such as undesired side reactions. (12)
Scheme 1

The potential to achieve high selectivities for HIE under comparably mild conditions, thus enabling a broader functional group tolerance, has spurred research toward homogeneously catalyzed methods. (1b,d,e,13) In this context, the use of directing groups (DGs) has proven to be highly useful. (14) Methods based on various transition metals have been established and feature high efficiencies and broad functional group tolerances (Scheme 1B). (15) While DGs usually lead to selective deuteration at the ortho position, specialized DGs to achieve meta deuteration have also been described. (16)
Recent studies have focused on the use of native functional groups rather than designed DGs to enable directed late-stage C–H deuteration. (17)
These directed protocols are complemented by nondirected approaches, (18) which offer the possibility to address unbiased C–H bonds without requiring a DG on the substrate, thus potentially enabling H/D exchange on a substantially broader range of substrates. Nondirected methods for the deuteration of simple arenes are well-established, (19) but catalysts that enable nondirected HIE of drug molecules and other similarly complex scaffolds have only recently been described (Scheme 1C). (20) Chirik and co-workers introduced an iron catalyst capable of inducing HIE with a variety of pharmaceuticals using D2 as the deuterium source. (20a) The same group later described a Ni-based catalyst that delivered deuterated and tritiated drug molecules efficiently using D2 and T2 as the sources of deuterium and tritium, respectively. (20c) Recently, de Ruiter et al. described an Fe–PCP-pincer complex that proved to be highly active for the nondirected H/D exchange of arenes using C6D6 as the deuterium source and tolerated a considerable range of functional groups. (20e) These catalysts provided substantial progress toward the mild and efficient HIE of complex molecules and raised interest in the development of complementary methods. (1e,20f)
Our group has recently developed Pd-catalysts for nondirected late-stage functionalization of complex (hetero)arenes. (21,22) An extensive mechanistic investigation of our dual-ligand-based catalyst system (23) showed that the C–H activation step is reversible (Scheme 1D). We envisioned that a highly active catalyst for the reversible C–H activation of arenes using our dual ligand design could enable a homogeneous nondirected method for Pd-catalyzed late-stage HIE with the potential to complement existing methods based on 3d metals with regard to the substrate scope and/or deuterium source used.
On the basis of these considerations, we engaged in detailed optimization studies. (24)Table 1 shows the deuteration of model substrate 1 using different bidentate ligands in 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoropropan-2-ol-d1 (d1-HFIP). N-Acetylglycine (L1) as the ligand resulted in moderate H/D-exchange (entry 1). Building upon our recent finding that bulky arylamides as concerted metalation–deprotonation (CMD)-promoting groups in ethylenediamine ligands show superior activity in HIE, (24) we synthesized the analogous glycine derivatives L2 and L3 (entries 2 and 3). These α-amino acid-derived ligands lead to a significant improvement in deuterium incorporation. An extensive search for novel ligand classes with improved properties regarding activity and regioselectivity led us to discover N,N-bidentate ligands that feature N-acylsulfonamide groups. Interestingly, introducing this motif instead of the carboxylic acid moiety offers additional potential for ligand diversification by introducing further variable positions. Using mesityl-substituted ligand L4 gave similar results as L1, albeit with less deuteration at the ortho position, whereas L5 led to decreased values (entries 4 and 5). A significant improvement resulted when the two structural variations were combined in L6 and L7 (entries 6 and 7).

Reactions were performed on a 0.1 mmol scale.
Yields and degrees of deuteration were determined by 1H NMR spectroscopy using mesitylene as an internal standard. The total deuterium content was determined by mass spectrometry.
The reaction was performed with D2O/HFIP (7:3) as the solvent. Since D2O is used as part of the solvent system, this corresponds to an excess of approximately 390 equiv.
No 3-trifluoromethylquinoline.
The reaction was performed with a reaction time of 48 h.
An investigation of alternative, more convenient deuterium sources showed that improved results are obtained with a 7:3 D2O/HFIP mixture as the solvent (Table 1, entry 8). This is particularly attractive since d1-HFIP, which is comparably costly or needs to be synthesized, can be replaced by a cheap and convenient deuterium source. Control experiments at this stage revealed that both ligands are indeed required to obtain optimal results (entries 9 and 10). Finally, nearly complete deuteration of the meta and para positions was observed when L7 was used with an increased reaction time (entry 11).
Interestingly, the seemingly sterically most hindered ligand enables the highest deuteration at the ortho position. This can be explained by two factors. First, the steric bulk does not point toward the substrate in the key C–H activation step, (23) and second, the ligand enables the highest overall activities, such that even the least reactive site on the substrate is deuterated. However, it remains substantially slower than the other positions (entries 8 and 11). Since the conditions developed in Table 1 (conditions B in Scheme 2) were found using a particularly challenging electron-poor substrate, we hypothesized that more electron-rich substrates might be deuterated under milder conditions. A reoptimization (see the Supporting Information (SI) for details) delivered a second set of reaction conditions using L3 with AgF as an additive at lower temperatures (conditions A in Scheme 2)

dDetermined by 1H NMR spectroscopy.
Having established two sets of conditions, we evaluated the scope of our method (Scheme 2). We initiated our investigation by using simple arenes to assess the general functional group tolerance when applying our catalyst systems. The yields of the reisolated substrates were in general good to excellent. The use of alkylated arene 2 under very mild conditions resulted in high H/D exchange in the arene moiety (DTotal = 4.22). Excellent degrees of deuteration were also observed for anisole derivative 3. Notably, our protocol tolerates ketones (4), a functional group that occurs in a wide range of bioactive molecules, but is challenging for many literature methods. Using conditions B, in addition to the deuteration on the arene core, butyrophenone 4 underwent little but measurable isotope exchange in the relatively acidic α-position, presumably via an acid–base mechanism. The electron-poor arenes 1, 5, and 6 were likewise subjected to conditions B, leading to very high degrees of deuteration, especially at the meta and para positions. Dialkyl-substituted substrate 7 smoothly underwent H/D exchange in the arene moiety. Interestingly, halogenated arene 8 was well-tolerated under conditions A, giving the reisolated substrate in good yield with a high overall degree of deuteration. Further disubstituted arenes containing ester, amide, and ether, as well as free hydroxy and acid groups (9–13) gave high levels of deuterium incorporation (up to DTotal = 3.97). Aniline derivatives (14) as well as aldehydes and extended π systems (15) are likewise tolerated under the reaction conditions. Finally, we probed whether our protocol can be used for heterocycles. The comparably electron-rich heteroarenes pyrrole 16, oxazole 17, and thiazole 18 could be deuterated in moderate to good yields with appreciable levels of deuterium incorporation. The deuteration of pyridine derivative 19 confirmed that this substrate class is in principle amenable if the N atom is sufficiently shielded to avoid catalyst poisoning.
We proceeded to evaluate the suitability of our method for the late-stage deuteration of bioactive molecules and related scaffolds. Subjecting estrone derivative 20 to conditions A delivered the deuterated compound [D]20 in very good yield with a high degree of deuteration on the arene moiety. Interestingly, the sterically most congested position underwent H/D exchange to a reduced extent. Similarly, with tyrosine derivative 21 the deuterium incorporation at the sterically more hindered position was lower than at the position ortho to the methoxy group. Furthermore, nateglinide methyl ester 22, the Evans-type reagent 23, guaifenesin derivative 24, watermelon ketone (25), and carbofuran (26) were subjected to conditions A, leading to almost complete deuterium incorporation into the respective arene moieties, thereby demonstrating functional group tolerance toward amides, esters, ethers, and carbamates.
Representatives of the fibrate class such as cipofibrate methyl ester (27), clofibrate (28), bezafibrate methyl ester (29), and fenofibrate (30) were efficiently deuterated. Because of the presence of an electron-poor and a rather electron-rich arene moiety, substrates 29 and 30 were subjected to both conditions A and B. With the milder reaction conditions A, a good degree of deuteration on the electron-rich arene was observed, while with conditions B both arene moieties were efficiently deuterated.
Fluorescein derivative 31 was also subjected to both catalyst systems. With conditions A, the electron-rich positions underwent efficient H/D exchange (DTotal = 2.49) exclusively, whereas conditions B led to substantially increased overall deuterium incorporation (DTotal = 4.57). Nearly complete deuteration of the arene moieties occurred with sonidegib precursor 32. Etodolac methyl ester (33), which contains an indole substructure, likewise underwent efficient H/D exchange using conditions A.
Methyl ester derivatives of naproxen (34), ketoprofen (35), and flurbiprofen (36), as representatives of the profen class of medications, were almost completely deuterated at the arene position (up to DTotal = 7.57). Fenbufen derivative 37 could likewise be deuterated. It should be noted that besides the aromatic core, the α-keto position underwent almost complete deuteration, presumably via an acid/base-type mechanism.
Derivatives of diflunisal (38) and isoxepac (39) gave high degrees of deuteration under conditions B. (−)-Menthol esters of 3-thiophenecarboxylic acid (40) and benzoic acid (41) could both be deuterated efficiently. Finally, subjecting benalaxyl (42), palonosetron precursor 43, praziquantel (44), and camphor derivative 45 to our catalyst led to nearly complete deuterium incorporation in the arene moieties as well as the olefinic position of 45.
Finally, Scheme 2 depicts a number of substrates that could not be deuterated using our method because of either substrate decomposition (46–50) or an absence of reactivity that presumably originates from catalyst poisoning by the substrate (51–53).
As evidenced by the above scope studies, we have developed a broadly applicable protocol for the nondirected late-stage deuteration of arenes using dual ligand-based palladium catalysts. Enabled by the development of a novel ligand class, a variety of bioactive molecules and related structures could be isotopically labeled using D2O as a cheap and convenient deuterium source. This method is applicable to both electron-rich and electron-poor arenes and tolerates a wide range of functional groups, rendering it complementary to established protocols. We expect that our catalysts will prove useful for isotopic labeling in various fields, with potential applications ranging from mechanistic studies to drug development.

We have presented in this essay a reminder of the limitations of some of the expts. used most commonly to measure kinetic isotope effects for processes involving C-H bond functionalization. Specifically, we have shown that the KIE expt. that allows one to conclude that C-H bond cleavage occurs during the rate-detg. step of a reaction is the measurement of the rates or rate consts. of two independent reactions with two substrates, one contg. a C-H bond and one contg. a C-D bond. We hope that this presentation will assist in the selection of expts. to conduct when seeking information on whether C-H bond cleavage occurs during the "rate-detg." or "turnover-limiting" step of a metal-mediated C-H bond functionalization process.

Further purifn. by silica solid phase extn. and reverse phase HPLC is done prior to injection into a GC-EC-MS.

(John Wiley & Sons Ltd.)It appears to be a general belief that stable isotopically labeled (SIL) internal stds. yield better assay performance results for quant. bioanal. liq. chromatog./mass spectrometry (LC/MS) assays than does any other internal std. In this article we describe our experiences with structural analogs and SIL internal stds. and their merits and demerits. SIL internal stds. are the first choice, but deuterium-labeled compds. may demonstrate unexpected behavior, such as different retention times or recoveries, than the analyte. In addn., a SIL internal std. with identical chem. properties as the analyte may cover up assay problems with stability, recovery, and ion suppression. Since SIL internal stds. are not always available or are very expensive, structural analogs can be used, however, with consideration of several issues, which are usually displayed during method validation.(d) Mutlib, A.

(American Chemical Society)A review. Stable isotope-labeled compds. have been synthesized and utilized by scientists from various areas of biomedical research during the last several decades. Compds. labeled with stable isotopes, such as deuterium and carbon-13, have been used effectively by drug metab. scientists and toxicologists to gain better understanding of drugs' disposition and their potential role in target organ toxicities. The combination of stable isotope-labeling techniques with mass spectrometry and NMR spectroscopy, which allows rapid acquisition and interpretation of data, has promoted greater use of these stable isotope-labeled compds. in absorption, distribution, metab., and excretion (ADME) studies. Examples of the use of stable isotope-labeled compds. in elucidating structures of metabolites and delineating complex metabolic pathways are presented in this review. The application of labeled compds. in mechanistic toxicity studies will be discussed by providing an example of how strategic placement of a deuterium atom in a drug mol. mitigated specific-specific renal toxicity. Other examples from the literature demonstrating the application of stable isotope-labeled compds. in understanding metab.-mediated toxicities are presented. Furthermore, an example of how a stable isotope-labeled compd. was utilized to better understand some of the gene changes in toxicogenomic studies is discussed. The interpretation of large sets of data produced from toxicogenomics studies can be a challenge. One approach that could be used to simplify interpretation of the data, esp. from studies designed to link gene changes with the formation of reactive metabolites thought to be responsible for toxicities, is through the use of stable isotope-labeled compds. This is a relatively unexplored territory and needs to be further investigated. The employment of anal. techniques, esp. mass spectrometry and NMR, used in conjunction with stable isotope-labeled compds. to establish and understand mechanistic link between reactive metabolite formation, genomic, and proteomic changes and onset of toxicity is proposed. The use of stable isotope-labeled compds. in early human ADME studies as a way of identifying and possibly quantifying all drug-related components present in systemic circulation is suggested.(e) Atzrodt, J.; Derdau, V.

Radiolabeled compds. are excellent investigative tools and widely used to carry out ADME studies during drug discovery and development stages. The most commonly used radioisotopes are 14C and 3H. 3H materials are generally easier to synthesize than 14C materials. Therefore, a variety of probes and substrates used in in vitro assays are labeled with 3H. Since synthesis of 14C material requires intensive resources, it is usually not available until after a mol. is considered for potential development or after the mol. enters the development phase. Improvement in the technol. in radiochem. has enabled the use of radiolabeled compds. earlier in pre-clin. and clin. development to address mechanistic issues. For in vitro studies, radiolabeled probes are utilized to test affinity with various transporters, to perform metab. comparison among species and to assess possible formation of reactive metabolites. For in vivo studies, radiolabeled compds. are employed to identify and elucidate metabolites formed, to investigate the extent of absorption, bioavailability, tissue distribution, mass balance, routes of excretion, and pre-systemic metab. Due to the significant impact of radiolabeled studies on drug development, these studies will be performed earlier than have been in the past and will continue to be an integral part of drug discovery and development.(b) Harbeson, S.

(American Chemical Society)A review. As part of the drug discovery and development process, it is important to understand the fate of the drug candidate in humans and the relevance of the animal species used for preclin. toxicity and pharmacodynamic studies. Therefore, various in vitro and in vivo studies are conducted during the different stages of the drug development process to elucidate the absorption, distribution, metab., and excretion properties of the drug candidate. Although state-of-the-art LC/MS techniques are commonly employed for these studies, radiolabeled mols. are still frequently required for the quantification of metabolites and to assess the retention and excretion of all drug related material without relying on structural information and MS ionization properties. In this perspective, we describe the activities of Isotope Chem. at AstraZeneca and give a brief overview of different commonly used approaches for the prepn. of 14C- and 3H-labeled drug candidates. Also various drug metab. and pharmacokinetic studies utilizing radiolabeled drug candidates are presented with inhouse examples where relevant. Finally, we outline strategic changes to our use of radiolabeled compds. in drug metab. and pharmacokinetic studies, with an emphasis on delaying of in vivo studies employing radiolabeled drug mols.(d) Gant, T.

Nevertheless, there is generally an incomplete understanding of the crit. factors involved in the labeling of compds. The remit of an Isotope Chem. group varies from company to company, but often includes the synthesis of compds. labeled with radioisotopes, esp. H-3 and C-14 and occasionally I-125, and stable isotopes, esp. H-2, C-13, and N-15. Often the remit will also include the synthesis of drug metabolites. The methods used to prep. radiolabeled compds. by Isotope Chemists have been reviewed relatively recently. However, the organization and utilization of Isotope Chem. has not been discussed recently and will be reviewed herein. - 5(a) Mullard, A. FDA approves first deuterated drug. Nat. Rev.

(American Chemical Society)A review. The use of deuteration in medicinal chem. has exploded in the past years, and the FDA has recently approved the first deuterium-labeled drug. Precision deuteration goes beyond the pure and simple amelioration of the pharmacokinetic parameters of a drug and might provide an opportunity when facing problems in terms of metab.-mediated toxicity, drug interactions, and low bioactivation. The use of deuterium is even broader, offering the opportunity to lower the degree of epimerization, reduce the dose of coadministered boosters, and discover compds. where deuterium is the basis for the mechanism of action. Nevertheless, designing, synthesizing, and developing a successful deuterated drug is far from straightforward, and the translation from concept to practice is often unpredictable. This Perspective provides an overview of the recent developments of deuteration, with a focus on deuterated clin. candidates, and highlights both opportunities and challenges of this strategy. - 6(a) Thomas, A.

(American Chemical Society)The Hg(arene)2(GaCl4)2 catalyzed H/D exchange reaction of C6D6 with arenes occurs via an electrophilic arom. substitution reaction in which the coordinated arene protonates the C6D6. To investigate this mechanism, the kinetics of the Hg(C6H5Me)2(GaCl4)2 catalyzed H/D exchange reaction of C6D6 with naphthalene were studied. Sep. second-order rate consts. were detd. for the 1- and 2-positions on naphthalene; i.e., the initial rate of H/D exchange = k1i[Hg][C-H1] + k2i[Hg][C-H2]. The ratio of k1i/k2i ranges from 11 to 2.5 over the temp. range studied, commensurate with the proposed electrophilic arom. substitution reaction. Observation of the reactions over an extended time period shows that the rates change with time, until they again reach a new and const. second-order kinetics regime. The overall form of the rate equation is unchanged: final rate = k1f[Hg][C-H1] + k2f[Hg][C-H2]. This change in the H/D exchange is accompanied by ligand exchange between Hg(C6D6)2(GaCl4)2 and naphthalene to give Hg(C10H8)2(GaCl4)2, that was characterized by 13C CPMAS NMR and UV-visible spectroscopy. The activation parameters for the ligand exchange may be detd. and are indicative of a dissociative reaction and are consistent with our previously calcd. bond dissocn. for Hg(C6H6)2(AlCl4)2. The initial Hg(arene)2(GaCl4)2 catalyzed reaction of naphthalene with C6D6 involves the deuteration of naphthalene by coordinated C6D6; however, as ligand exchange progresses, the pathway for H/D exchange changes to where the protonation of C6D6 by coordinated naphthalene dominates. The site selectivity for the H/D exchange is initially due to the electrophilic arom. substitution of naphthalene. As ligand exchange occurs, this selectivity is controlled by the activation of the naphthalene C-H bonds by mercury.(e) Hakala, U.; Wähälä, K.

The influence of Lewis acidity, anions, charge, and ligands was evaluated. The results indicate that the detn. of H/D exchange activity in acidic media is not related to the formation of metal-carbon bonds (i.e., C-H activation). The combined exptl. data (regioselectivity, activation energy, kinetics, isotope effects, solvent effects) and DFT calcns. point toward a proton catalysis mechanism. Thus, highly Lewis acidic metal compds., such as aluminum(III) triflate, were extraordinarily active for the H/D exchange reactions. Indeed, the degree of H/D exchange reactivity allows for a comparative measurement of Lewis acidities.(m) Fischer, O.; Hubert, A.; Heinrich, M. R.

Lithiation of BzNEt2, followed by reaction with MeI, EtI, PhCOMe, Me2CO, BzH or (MeO)3B-H2O2, gives the expected ortho substituted product. Intramol. competition between the diethylamido and chloro, methoxyl, sulfonamido, (dimethylamino)methyl, or oxazolino functions in ortho- and para-substituted benzamides establishes the tertiary amido group to be more effective in directing metalation than any noncarboxamide functional group. The secondary amide has a directing ability comparable to the tertiary amide although the yields are low. A labeling study suggests that lithiation of the ortho position of BzN(CHMe2)2 is direct and not the result of rearrangement of an initially formed α-aza anion. Control of metalation at the ortho or benzylic position by proper selection of the organolithium base is illustrated for p-MeC6H4CON(CHMe2)2. The value of the tertiary amide for control of ortho lithiations and regiospecific arom. substitutions is noted.(b) Clayden, J.; Pink, J. H.; Westlund, N.; Wilson, F. X.

(Pharmaceutical Society of Japan)A review. Deuterium (D)labeled compds. are utilized in various scientific fields such as mechanistic elucidation of reactions, prepn. of new functional materials, tracers for microanal., deuterium labeled heavy drugs and so on. Although the H-D exchange reaction is a straightforward method to produce deuterated org. compds., many precedent methods require expensive deuterium gas and/or harsh reaction conditions. A part of our leading research agendas is intended to the development of novel and functional heterogeneous platinum-group catalysts and the reclamation of unknown functionalities of existing heterogeneous platinum-group catalysts. During the course of the study, benzylic positions of substrates were site-selectively deuterated under mild and palladium-on-carbon (Pd/C)-catalyzed hydrogenation conditions in heavy water (D2O). Heat conditions promoted the H-D exchange reactivity and facilitated the H-D exchange reaction at not only the benzylic sites but also inactive C-H bonds and heterocyclic nuclei. It is noteworthy that platinum-on-carbon (Pt/C) indicated a quite high affinity toward arom. nuclei, and the H-D exchange reaction was strongly enhanced by the use of Pt/C as a catalyst under milder conditions. The mixed use of Pd/C and Pt/C was found to be more efficient in the H-D exchange reaction compared to the independent use of Pd/C or Pt/C. Furthermore, simple alkanes could also be efficiently deuterated under rhodium-on-carbon (Rh/C)-catalyzed conditions. The use of ruthenium-on-carbon (Ru/C) enabled the regiospecific and efficient deuterium incorporation at α-positions of alcs. and results were applied as a regio- and stereoselective multi-deuteration method of sugar derivs.(g) Pieters, G.; Taglang, C.; Bonnefille, E.; Gutmann, T.; Puente, C.; Berthet, J.-C.; Dugave, C.; Chaudret, B.; Rousseau, B.

(Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA)An efficient H/D exchange method allowing the deuteration of pyridines, quinolines, indoles and alkyl amines with D2 in the presence of PVP-supported ruthenium (Ru@PVP) nanoparticles is described. By a general and simple procedure involving mild reaction conditions and simple filtration to recover the labeled product, the isotopic labeling of 22 compds. proceeded in good yield with high chemoselectivity and regioselectivity. The viability of this procedure was demonstrated by the labeling of eight biol. active compds. Remarkably, enantiomeric purity was conserved in the labeled compds., even though labeling took place in the vicinity of the stereogenic center. The level of isotopic enrichment obsd. is suitable for metabolomic studies in most cases. This approach is also perfectly adapted to tritium labeling because it uses a gas as an isotopic source.

(American Chemical Society)Pyrazolylborato-ruthenium complexes undergo isotopic exchange with deuterated arene solvents. Regioselective isotopic exchange of TpRu(PMe3)2X [X = OH, OPh, Me, Ph, or NHPh; Tp = hydridotris(pyrazolyl)borate] with C6D6 and C6D5CD3 proceeds at 90-130° giving complexes deuterated in X or Tp positions. For X = OH or NHPh, H/D exchange occurs at hydroxide and anilido ligands, resp. For X = OH, OPh, Me, Ph, or NHPh, isotopic exchange occurs at the Tp 4-positions with only minimal deuterium incorporation at the Tp 3- or 5-positions or PMe3 ligands. For TpRu(PMe3)(NCMe)Ph, the H/D exchange occurs at 60° at all three Tp positions and the Ph ring. TpRu(PMe3)2Cl, TpRu(PMe3)2OTf (OTf = trifluoromethanesulfonate), and TpRu(PMe3)2SH do not initiate H/D exchange in C6D6 after extended periods of time at elevated temps. Mechanistic studies indicate that the likely pathway for the H/D exchange involves ligand dissocn. (PMe3 or NCMe), Ru-mediated activation of an arom. C-D bond, and deuteration of basic nondative ligand (hydroxide or anilido) or Tp positions via net D+ transfer.(b) Allen, P. H.; Hickey, M. J.; Kingston, L. P.; Wilkinson, D. J.

(Elsevier Masson SAS)A review. The purpose of this review is to analyze the different reaction mechanisms of the H/D exchange on org. substrates catalyzed by transition metal complexes in homogeneous phase. The metal-catalyzed H/D exchange is a multifaceted reaction whose mechanism depends strongly on the reaction conditions and on the metal complex used as a catalyst. It is possible to group the different mechanisms into three main families depending on the "role" and behavior of the catalyst: (i) Lewis acid-base catalysis; (ii) C-H activation (iii) insertion/β-elimination. For each macro-group, several representative examples are discussed and critically evaluated in order to provide the reader with keys to the understanding of how the different catalytic systems act and how their modification may affect their performance in terms of activity and selectivity. This knowledge is fundamental for designing improved organometallic H/D catalysts for labeling org. products in greener conditions with more cost-effective processes. - 14(a) Whisler, M.

(Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA)A review. The use of coordinating moieties as directing groups for the functionalization of arom. C-H bonds has become an established tool to enhance reactivity and induce regioselectivity. Nevertheless, with regard to the synthetic applicability of C-H activation, there is a growing interest in transformations in which the directing group can be fully abandoned, thus allowing the direct functionalization of simple benzene derivs. However, this approach requires the disclosure of new strategies to achieve reactivity and to control selectivity. In this review, recent advances in the emerging field of non-chelate-assisted C-H activation are discussed, highlighting some of the most intriguing and inspiring examples of induction of reactivity and selectivity.(b) Hartwig, J.

(American Chemical Society)The functionalization of C-H bonds has created new approaches to prepg. org. mols. by enabling new strategic "disconnections" during the planning of a synthetic route. Such functionalizations also have created the ability to derivatize complex mols. by modifying one or more of the many C-H bonds. For these reasons, researchers are developing new types of functionalization reactions of C-H bonds and new applications of these processes. These C-H bond functionalization reactions can be divided into two general classes: those directed by coordination to an existing functional group prior to the cleavage of the C-H bond (directed) and those occurring without coordination prior to cleavage of the C-H bond (undirected). The undirected functionalizations of C-H bonds are much less common and more challenging to develop than the directed reactions. This outlook will focus on undirected C-H bond functionalization, as well as related reactions that occur by a noncovalent assocn. of the catalyst prior to C-H bond cleavage. The inherent challenges of conducting undirected functionalizations of C-H bonds and the methods for undirected functionalization that are being developed will be presented, along with the factors that govern selectivity in these reactions.

In general, PtCl2 and K2PtCl4 provided the fewest turnovers, and species contg. bidentate ligands afforded higher turnover nos. than those with tridentate ligands.

(American Chemical Society)Heavier alk. earth (Ae) metal amide complexes Ae(NR2)2 (Ae = Ca, Sr, Ba) were found to be highly active catalysts for hydrogen isotope exchange (HIE). The activities for D/H exchange between C6D6 and H2 strongly increase with metal size (Ca < Sr < Ba) and with amide bulk: N(SiMe3)2 < N(DIPP)(SiiPr3)< N(SiiPr3)2, DIPP = 2,6-diisopropylphenyl. At 120°C and pressures of 10-50 bar, no hydrogenation side-products are produced, and TONs of 205 and TOFs of 268, competitive with those for precious metal catalysts, have been achieved. The reverse H/D exchange between C6H6 and D2 is even faster by a factor 1.5-2. Substrates also include a range of substituted arenes. Alkyl-substituted arom. rings are preferably deuterated in acidic benzylic positions, and this tendency increases with the no. of alkyl-substituents. Although unactivated (sp3)C-H units could not be deuterated, the (sp3)Si-H function in primary, secondary, and tertiary alkylsilanes could be converted. Two different pathways for C6H6/D2 isotope exchange have been evaluated by DFT calcns.: (A) a deprotonation/protonation mechanism and (B) direct nucleophilic arom. substitution. Although the exact nature of the catalyst(s) is unclear, the first step is the conversion of Ae(NR2)2 with D2 into R2NAeD which can aggregate to larger clusters. Energy profiles with model catalysts (iPr3Si)2NAeD and [(Me3Si)2NAeD]2 (Ae = Ca or Ba) show that the direct nucleophilic arom. substitution is the most likely mechanism for deuteration of arenes. The key to this unusual reaction is the initial formation of a π-arene···Ae complex which is followed by the generation of an intermediate with a Meisenheimer anion. Heavier Ae metal amide complexes are, despite the lack of partially filled d-orbitals for substrate activation, potent catalysts for HIE.(l) Dong, B.; Cong, X.; Hao, N.

(American Chemical Society)Catalytic methods for the direct introduction of hydrogen isotopes into org. mols. are essential to the development of improved pharmaceuticals and to the alteration of their absorption, distribution, metab., and excretion (ADME) properties. However, the development of homogeneous catalysts for selective incorporation of isotopes in the absence of directing groups under practical conditions remains a long-standing challenge. Herein, a phosphine-ligated, silver-carbonate complex catalyzes the site-selective deuteration of C-H bonds in five-membered arom. heterocycles and active pharmaceutical ingredients that have been resistant to catalytic H/D exchange. The reactions occur with CH3OD as a low-cost source of the isotope. The silver catalysts react with five-membered heteroarenes lacking directing groups, tolerate a wide range of functional groups, and react in both polar and nonpolar solvents. Mechanistic expts., including deuterium kinetic isotope effects, detn. of kinetic orders, and identification of the catalyst resting state, support C-H bond cleavage from a phosphine-ligated, silver-carbonate intermediate as the rate-detg. step of the catalytic cycle. - 20(a) Pony Yu, R.; Hesk, D.; Rivera, N.; Pelczer, I.; Chirik, P.

(Nature Publishing Group)A thorough understanding of the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of a drug in animal models is a crit. component of drug discovery and development. Such studies are performed in vivo and in vitro at various stages of the development process-ranging from preclin. absorption, distribution, metab. and excretion (ADME) studies to late-stage human clin. trials-to elucidate a drug mol.'s metabolic profile and to assess its toxicity. Radiolabeled compds., typically those that contain 14C or 3H isotopes, are one of the most powerful and widely deployed diagnostics for these studies. The introduction of radiolabels using synthetic chem. enables the direct tracing of the drug mol. without substantially altering its structure or function. The ubiquity of C-H bonds in drugs and the relative ease and low cost assocd. with tritium (3H) make it an ideal radioisotope with which to conduct ADME studies early in the drug development process. Here we describe an iron-catalyzed method for the direct 3H labeling of pharmaceuticals by hydrogen isotope exchange, using tritium gas as the source of the radioisotope.

Neil; Rivera, Nelo; Hesk, David; Chirik, Paul J.ACS Catalysis (2018), 8 (11), 10210-10218CODEN: ACCACS; ISSN:2155-5435. (American Chemical Society)A nickel-catalyzed method for the site-selective hydrogen isotope exchange (HIE) of C(sp2)-H bonds in nitrogen heteroarenes is described and applied to the tritiation of pharmaceuticals. The α-diimine nickel hydride complex [(iPrDI)Ni(μ2-H)]2 (iPrDI = N,N'-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)-2,3-butanediimine) mediates efficient HIE when employed as a single component precatalyst or generated in situ from readily available and air-stable metal and ligand precursors (iPrDI, [(NEt3)Ni(OPiv)2]2 (Piv = pivaloyl) and (EtO)3SiH). The nickel catalyst offers distinct advantages over existing methods, including: (i) high HIE activity at low D2 or T2 pressure; (ii) tolerance of functional groups, including aryl chlorides, alcs., secondary amides, and sulfones; (iii) activity with nitrogen-rich mols. such as the chemotherapeutic imatinib; and (iv) the ability to promote HIE in sterically hindered positions generally inaccessible with other transition metal catalysts. Representative active pharmaceutical ingredients were tritiated with specific activities in excess of the thresholds required for drug absorption, distribution, metab., and excretion studies (1 Ci/mmol) and for protein receptor-ligand binding assays (15 Ci/mmol). The activity and selectivity of the nickel-catalyzed method are demonstrated by comparison with the current state-of-the-art single-site (iridium and iron) and heterogeneous (Raney nickel and rhodium black) catalysts. A pathway involving C(sp2)-H activation by a α-diimine nickel hydride monomer is consistent with the exptl. measured relative rate consts. for HIE with electronically disparate pyridines, the pressure-dependence of activity, positional selectivity preferences, and kinetic isotope effects.(c) Zarate, C.; Yang, H.; Bezdek, M.

Diimine-supported, three-coordinate Ni(I)-X complexes are proposed as key intermediates in a host of catalytic transformations such as C-C and C-heteroatom cross-coupling and C-H functionalization but have until now remained synthetically elusive. A combination of structural, spectroscopic, electrochem., and computational studies were used to establish the electronic structure of each monomeric [(ipcADI)NiX] (X = Cl, Br, I) complex as a Ni(I) deriv. supported by a redox-neutral α-diimine chelate. The dimeric Ni hydride, [(ipcADI)Ni(μ2-H)]2, was prepd. and characterized by x-ray diffraction; however, magnetic measurements and 1H NMR spectroscopy support monomer formation at ambient temp. in THF soln. This Ni hydride was used as a precatalyst for the H isotope exchange (HIE) of C-H bonds in arenes and pharmaceuticals. By virtue of the multisite reactivity and high efficiency, the new Ni precatalyst provided unprecedented high specific activities (50-99 Ci/mmol) in radiolabeling, meeting the threshold required for radioligand binding assays. Use of air-stable and readily synthesized Ni precursor, [(ipcADI)NiBr2], broad functional group tolerance, and compatibility with polar protic solvents are addnl. assets of the Ni-catalyzed HIE method.(d) Corpas, J.; Viereck, P.; Chirik, P.

The iron-catalyzed reaction proceeded with predictable regioselectivity, engaging sterically accessible C-H bonds including ortho-to-fluorine sites. The site selectivity for the catalytic HIE reaction was studied to identify the kinetic preferences for C-H activation. Structure-activity relationship studies with a series of iron precatalysts established that introduction of substituents at the 3- and 5-positions of pyridine of the pincer significantly accelerated HIE.

(Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA)The application of the Pd-catalyzed oxidative C-H olefination of arenes, also known as the Fujiwara-Moritani reaction, has traditionally been limited by the requirement for directing groups on the substrate or the need to use the arene in large excess, typically as a (co)solvent. Herein, the development of a catalytic system is described that, through the combined action of two complementary ligands, makes it possible to use directing-group-free arenes as limiting reagents for the first time. The reactions proceed under a combination of both steric and electronic control and enable the application of this powerful reaction to valuable arenes, which cannot be utilized in excess.(b) Chen, H.; Mondal, A.; Wedi, P.; van Gemmeren, M.

A common procedure to insert alkynes into (hetero)arenes, such as the thiophenes studied herein, consists of a halogenation followed by a Sonogashira cross-coupling. The regioselectivity of this approach depends entirely on the halogenation step. Similarly, direct alkynylations of thiophenes were described that follow the same regioselectivity patterns. Herein the authors report the development of a palladium catalyzed C-H activation/alkynylation of thiophenes. The method is applicable to a broad range of thiophene substrates. For 3-substituted substrates where controlling the regioselectivity between the C2 and C5 position is particularly challenging, two sets of reaction conditions enable a regiodivergent reaction, giving access to each regioisomer selectively. Both protocols use the thiophene as limiting reagent and show a broad scope, rendering the authors' method suitable for late-stage modification.(f) Santiago, C.; Chen, H.; Mondal, A.; van Gemmeren, M.

(Nature Research)The directed activation of carbon-hydrogen bonds (C-H) is important in the development of synthetically useful reactions, owing to the proximity-induced reactivity and selectivity that is enabled by coordinating functional groups. Palladium-catalyzed non-directed C-H activation could potentially enable further useful reactions, because it can reach more distant sites and be applied to substrates that do not contain appropriate directing groups; however, its development has faced substantial challenges assocd. with the lack of sufficiently active palladium catalysts. Currently used palladium catalysts are reactive only with electron-rich arenes, unless an excess of arene is used, which limits synthetic applications. Here we report a 2-pyridone ligand that binds to palladium and accelerates non-directed C-H functionalization with arene as the limiting reagent. This protocol is compatible with a broad range of arom. substrates and we demonstrate direct functionalization of advanced synthetic intermediates, drug mols. and natural products that cannot be used in excessive quantities. We also developed C-H olefination and carboxylation protocols, demonstrating the applicability of our methodol. to other transformations. The site selectivity in these transformations is governed by a combination of steric and electronic effects, with the pyridone ligand enhancing the influence of sterics on the selectivity, thus providing complementary selectivity to directed C-H functionalization.(b) Naksomboon, K.; Valderas, C.; Gómez-Martínez, M.; Álvarez-Casao, Y.; Fernández-Ibáñez, M.

These results reveal the potential of spatial anion control in transition-metal catalysis for the functionalization of C-H bonds under mild conditions.(h) Yin, B.; Fu, M.; Wang, L.; Liu, J.; Zhu, Q.

(Royal Society of Chemistry)Herein, a novel strategy for nondirected C-H alkenylation of alkyl aryl ethers (anisole, phenetole, Pr Ph ether, Bu Ph ether and benzyl Ph ether), cyclic aryl ethers (1,4-benzodioxane, 2,3-dihydrobenzofuran, dibenzofuran), and di-Ph oxide promoted by a dual ligand catalyst was demonstrated. This catalytic system readily achieved the highly efficient alkenylation of aryl ethers.

(Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA)Recently palladium catalysts have been discovered that enable the directing-group-free C-H activation of arenes without requiring an excess of the arene substrate, thereby enabling methods for the late-stage modification of complex org. mols. The key to success has been the use of two complementary ligands, an N-acyl amino acid and an N-heterocycle. Detailed exptl. and computational mechanistic studies on the dual-ligand-enabled C-H activation of arenes have led us to identify the catalytically active species and a transition state model that explains the exceptional activity and selectivity of these catalysts. These findings are expected to be highly useful for further method development using this powerful class of catalysts.

(American Chemical Society)In this study, the late-stage β-C(sp3)-H deuteration of free carboxylic acids was described. On the basis of the finding that C-H activation with catalysts was reversible, the de-deuteration process was first optimized. The resulting method used ethylenediamine-based ligands and could be used to achieve the desired deuteration when using a deuterated solvent. The reported method allowed for the functionalization of a wide range of free carboxylic acids with diverse substitution patterns, as well as the late-stage deuteration of bioactive mols. and related frameworks and enables the functionalization of nonactivated methylene β-C(sp3)-H bonds for the first time.See the SI for details.

Hydrogen isotope labeling allows for the traceless and direct incorporation of an addnl. mass or radioactive tag into an org. mol. with almost no changes in its chem. structure, phys. properties, or biol. activity.

Such methods are now providing unprecedented levels of insight in a wide and continuously growing range of applications in the life sciences and beyond. Tritium (3H), in particular, has seen an increase in utilization, esp. in pharmaceutical drug discovery. The efforts and costs assocd. with the synthesis of labeled compds. are more than compensated for by the enhanced mol. sensitivity during anal. and the high reliability of the data obtained.

(Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA)A review. We have presented in this essay a reminder of the limitations of some of the expts. used most commonly to measure kinetic isotope effects for processes involving C-H bond functionalization. Specifically, we have shown that the KIE expt. that allows one to conclude that C-H bond cleavage occurs during the rate-detg. step of a reaction is the measurement of the rates or rate consts. of two independent reactions with two substrates, one contg. a C-H bond and one contg. a C-D bond. We hope that this presentation will assist in the selection of expts. to conduct when seeking information on whether C-H bond cleavage occurs during the "rate-detg." or "turnover-limiting" step of a metal-mediated C-H bond functionalization process.

(Elsevier)The performance of a benchtop GC-ion trap MS-MS instrument, the Varian Saturn 4D, was evaluated for the anal. of a model drug, tebufelone, in plasma. The sample prepn. scheme was designed to provide a highly complex ext. with matrix-derived interferences eluting near and at the retention time of tebufelone and its stable-isotope-labeled analog. The performance of the ion trap in the selected-reaction-monitoring mode was evaluated and also compared with results obtained on a benchtop GC-MS linear quadrupole instrument operated in the selected-ion-monitoring mode. The ion trap, operated in the selected-reaction-monitoring mode, was found to provide a higher degree of selectivity for the anal. of tebufelone. The increased selectivity obtained on the ion trap operated in the selected-reaction-monitoring mode resulted in superior accuracy and precision, as well as a lower limit of quantitation relative to that obtained by the GC-MS anal. A linear std. curve was obtained over three orders of magnitude and the limit of quantitation for tebufelone in plasma was 100 pg/mL using the GC-ion trap MS-MS instrument.(b) Kao, C.-Y.; Giese, R.

The method was used to detect this adduct in amts. of human DNA ranging from 0.07 to 11.5 μg isolated from granulocytes. In this method, the DNA is spiked with a stable isotope internal std.

After the adduct is extd. into 1-butanol, it is purified by reverse phase HPLC and derivatized with HONO, pentafluorobenzyl bromide, and pivalic anhydride.

(John Wiley & Sons Ltd.)It appears to be a general belief that stable isotopically labeled (SIL) internal stds. yield better assay performance results for quant. bioanal. liq. chromatog./mass spectrometry (LC/MS) assays than does any other internal std. In this article we describe our experiences with structural analogs and SIL internal stds. and their merits and demerits. SIL internal stds. are the first choice, but deuterium-labeled compds. may demonstrate unexpected behavior, such as different retention times or recoveries, than the analyte. In addn., a SIL internal std. with identical chem. properties as the analyte may cover up assay problems with stability, recovery, and ion suppression. Since SIL internal stds. are not always available or are very expensive, structural analogs can be used, however, with consideration of several issues, which are usually displayed during method validation.(d) Mutlib, A.

(American Chemical Society)A review. Stable isotope-labeled compds. have been synthesized and utilized by scientists from various areas of biomedical research during the last several decades. Compds. labeled with stable isotopes, such as deuterium and carbon-13, have been used effectively by drug metab. scientists and toxicologists to gain better understanding of drugs' disposition and their potential role in target organ toxicities. The combination of stable isotope-labeling techniques with mass spectrometry and NMR spectroscopy, which allows rapid acquisition and interpretation of data, has promoted greater use of these stable isotope-labeled compds. in absorption, distribution, metab., and excretion (ADME) studies. Examples of the use of stable isotope-labeled compds. in elucidating structures of metabolites and delineating complex metabolic pathways are presented in this review. The application of labeled compds. in mechanistic toxicity studies will be discussed by providing an example of how strategic placement of a deuterium atom in a drug mol. mitigated specific-specific renal toxicity. Other examples from the literature demonstrating the application of stable isotope-labeled compds. in understanding metab.-mediated toxicities are presented. Furthermore, an example of how a stable isotope-labeled compd. was utilized to better understand some of the gene changes in toxicogenomic studies is discussed. The interpretation of large sets of data produced from toxicogenomics studies can be a challenge. One approach that could be used to simplify interpretation of the data, esp. from studies designed to link gene changes with the formation of reactive metabolites thought to be responsible for toxicities, is through the use of stable isotope-labeled compds. This is a relatively unexplored territory and needs to be further investigated. The employment of anal. techniques, esp. mass spectrometry and NMR, used in conjunction with stable isotope-labeled compds. to establish and understand mechanistic link between reactive metabolite formation, genomic, and proteomic changes and onset of toxicity is proposed. The use of stable isotope-labeled compds. in early human ADME studies as a way of identifying and possibly quantifying all drug-related components present in systemic circulation is suggested.(e) Atzrodt, J.; Derdau, V.

Radiolabeled compds. are excellent investigative tools and widely used to carry out ADME studies during drug discovery and development stages. The most commonly used radioisotopes are 14C and 3H. 3H materials are generally easier to synthesize than 14C materials. Therefore, a variety of probes and substrates used in in vitro assays are labeled with 3H. Since synthesis of 14C material requires intensive resources, it is usually not available until after a mol. is considered for potential development or after the mol. enters the development phase. Improvement in the technol. in radiochem. has enabled the use of radiolabeled compds. earlier in pre-clin. and clin. development to address mechanistic issues. For in vitro studies, radiolabeled probes are utilized to test affinity with various transporters, to perform metab. comparison among species and to assess possible formation of reactive metabolites. For in vivo studies, radiolabeled compds. are employed to identify and elucidate metabolites formed, to investigate the extent of absorption, bioavailability, tissue distribution, mass balance, routes of excretion, and pre-systemic metab. Due to the significant impact of radiolabeled studies on drug development, these studies will be performed earlier than have been in the past and will continue to be an integral part of drug discovery and development.(b) Harbeson, S.

(American Chemical Society)A review. As part of the drug discovery and development process, it is important to understand the fate of the drug candidate in humans and the relevance of the animal species used for preclin. toxicity and pharmacodynamic studies. Therefore, various in vitro and in vivo studies are conducted during the different stages of the drug development process to elucidate the absorption, distribution, metab., and excretion properties of the drug candidate. Although state-of-the-art LC/MS techniques are commonly employed for these studies, radiolabeled mols. are still frequently required for the quantification of metabolites and to assess the retention and excretion of all drug related material without relying on structural information and MS ionization properties. In this perspective, we describe the activities of Isotope Chem. at AstraZeneca and give a brief overview of different commonly used approaches for the prepn. of 14C- and 3H-labeled drug candidates. Also various drug metab. and pharmacokinetic studies utilizing radiolabeled drug candidates are presented with inhouse examples where relevant. Finally, we outline strategic changes to our use of radiolabeled compds. in drug metab. and pharmacokinetic studies, with an emphasis on delaying of in vivo studies employing radiolabeled drug mols.(d) Gant, T.

Nevertheless, there is generally an incomplete understanding of the crit. factors involved in the labeling of compds. The remit of an Isotope Chem. group varies from company to company, but often includes the synthesis of compds. labeled with radioisotopes, esp. H-3 and C-14 and occasionally I-125, and stable isotopes, esp. H-2, C-13, and N-15. Often the remit will also include the synthesis of drug metabolites. The methods used to prep. radiolabeled compds. by Isotope Chemists have been reviewed relatively recently. However, the organization and utilization of Isotope Chem. has not been discussed recently and will be reviewed herein. - 5(a) Mullard, A. FDA approves first deuterated drug. Nat. Rev.

(American Chemical Society)A review. The use of deuteration in medicinal chem. has exploded in the past years, and the FDA has recently approved the first deuterium-labeled drug. Precision deuteration goes beyond the pure and simple amelioration of the pharmacokinetic parameters of a drug and might provide an opportunity when facing problems in terms of metab.-mediated toxicity, drug interactions, and low bioactivation. The use of deuterium is even broader, offering the opportunity to lower the degree of epimerization, reduce the dose of coadministered boosters, and discover compds. where deuterium is the basis for the mechanism of action. Nevertheless, designing, synthesizing, and developing a successful deuterated drug is far from straightforward, and the translation from concept to practice is often unpredictable. This Perspective provides an overview of the recent developments of deuteration, with a focus on deuterated clin. candidates, and highlights both opportunities and challenges of this strategy. - 6(a) Thomas, A.

(American Chemical Society)The Hg(arene)2(GaCl4)2 catalyzed H/D exchange reaction of C6D6 with arenes occurs via an electrophilic arom. substitution reaction in which the coordinated arene protonates the C6D6. To investigate this mechanism, the kinetics of the Hg(C6H5Me)2(GaCl4)2 catalyzed H/D exchange reaction of C6D6 with naphthalene were studied. Sep. second-order rate consts. were detd. for the 1- and 2-positions on naphthalene; i.e., the initial rate of H/D exchange = k1i[Hg][C-H1] + k2i[Hg][C-H2]. The ratio of k1i/k2i ranges from 11 to 2.5 over the temp. range studied, commensurate with the proposed electrophilic arom. substitution reaction. Observation of the reactions over an extended time period shows that the rates change with time, until they again reach a new and const. second-order kinetics regime. The overall form of the rate equation is unchanged: final rate = k1f[Hg][C-H1] + k2f[Hg][C-H2]. This change in the H/D exchange is accompanied by ligand exchange between Hg(C6D6)2(GaCl4)2 and naphthalene to give Hg(C10H8)2(GaCl4)2, that was characterized by 13C CPMAS NMR and UV-visible spectroscopy. The activation parameters for the ligand exchange may be detd. and are indicative of a dissociative reaction and are consistent with our previously calcd. bond dissocn. for Hg(C6H6)2(AlCl4)2. The initial Hg(arene)2(GaCl4)2 catalyzed reaction of naphthalene with C6D6 involves the deuteration of naphthalene by coordinated C6D6; however, as ligand exchange progresses, the pathway for H/D exchange changes to where the protonation of C6D6 by coordinated naphthalene dominates. The site selectivity for the H/D exchange is initially due to the electrophilic arom. substitution of naphthalene. As ligand exchange occurs, this selectivity is controlled by the activation of the naphthalene C-H bonds by mercury.(e) Hakala, U.; Wähälä, K.

The combined exptl. data (regioselectivity, activation energy, kinetics, isotope effects, solvent effects) and DFT calcns. point toward a proton catalysis mechanism.

Lithiation of BzNEt2, followed by reaction with MeI, EtI, PhCOMe, Me2CO, BzH or (MeO)3B-H2O2, gives the expected ortho substituted product. Intramol. competition between the diethylamido and chloro, methoxyl, sulfonamido, (dimethylamino)methyl, or oxazolino functions in ortho- and para-substituted benzamides establishes the tertiary amido group to be more effective in directing metalation than any noncarboxamide functional group. The secondary amide has a directing ability comparable to the tertiary amide although the yields are low. A labeling study suggests that lithiation of the ortho position of BzN(CHMe2)2 is direct and not the result of rearrangement of an initially formed α-aza anion. Control of metalation at the ortho or benzylic position by proper selection of the organolithium base is illustrated for p-MeC6H4CON(CHMe2)2. The value of the tertiary amide for control of ortho lithiations and regiospecific arom. substitutions is noted.(b) Clayden, J.; Pink, J. H.; Westlund, N.; Wilson, F. X.

(Pharmaceutical Society of Japan)A review. Deuterium (D)labeled compds. are utilized in various scientific fields such as mechanistic elucidation of reactions, prepn. of new functional materials, tracers for microanal., deuterium labeled heavy drugs and so on. Although the H-D exchange reaction is a straightforward method to produce deuterated org. compds., many precedent methods require expensive deuterium gas and/or harsh reaction conditions. A part of our leading research agendas is intended to the development of novel and functional heterogeneous platinum-group catalysts and the reclamation of unknown functionalities of existing heterogeneous platinum-group catalysts. During the course of the study, benzylic positions of substrates were site-selectively deuterated under mild and palladium-on-carbon (Pd/C)-catalyzed hydrogenation conditions in heavy water (D2O). Heat conditions promoted the H-D exchange reactivity and facilitated the H-D exchange reaction at not only the benzylic sites but also inactive C-H bonds and heterocyclic nuclei. It is noteworthy that platinum-on-carbon (Pt/C) indicated a quite high affinity toward arom. nuclei, and the H-D exchange reaction was strongly enhanced by the use of Pt/C as a catalyst under milder conditions. The mixed use of Pd/C and Pt/C was found to be more efficient in the H-D exchange reaction compared to the independent use of Pd/C or Pt/C. Furthermore, simple alkanes could also be efficiently deuterated under rhodium-on-carbon (Rh/C)-catalyzed conditions. The use of ruthenium-on-carbon (Ru/C) enabled the regiospecific and efficient deuterium incorporation at α-positions of alcs. and results were applied as a regio- and stereoselective multi-deuteration method of sugar derivs.(g) Pieters, G.; Taglang, C.; Bonnefille, E.; Gutmann, T.; Puente, C.; Berthet, J.-C.; Dugave, C.; Chaudret, B.; Rousseau, B.

(Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA)An efficient H/D exchange method allowing the deuteration of pyridines, quinolines, indoles and alkyl amines with D2 in the presence of PVP-supported ruthenium (Ru@PVP) nanoparticles is described. By a general and simple procedure involving mild reaction conditions and simple filtration to recover the labeled product, the isotopic labeling of 22 compds. proceeded in good yield with high chemoselectivity and regioselectivity. The viability of this procedure was demonstrated by the labeling of eight biol. active compds. Remarkably, enantiomeric purity was conserved in the labeled compds., even though labeling took place in the vicinity of the stereogenic center. The level of isotopic enrichment obsd. is suitable for metabolomic studies in most cases. This approach is also perfectly adapted to tritium labeling because it uses a gas as an isotopic source.

Regioselective isotopic exchange of TpRu(PMe3)2X [X = OH, OPh, Me, Ph, or NHPh; Tp = hydridotris(pyrazolyl)borate] with C6D6 and C6D5CD3 proceeds at 90-130° giving complexes deuterated in X or Tp positions. For X = OH or NHPh, H/D exchange occurs at hydroxide and anilido ligands, resp. For X = OH, OPh, Me, Ph, or NHPh, isotopic exchange occurs at the Tp 4-positions with only minimal deuterium incorporation at the Tp 3- or 5-positions or PMe3 ligands. For TpRu(PMe3)(NCMe)Ph, the H/D exchange occurs at 60° at all three Tp positions and the Ph ring. TpRu(PMe3)2Cl, TpRu(PMe3)2OTf (OTf = trifluoromethanesulfonate), and TpRu(PMe3)2SH do not initiate H/D exchange in C6D6 after extended periods of time at elevated temps.

(Elsevier Masson SAS)A review. The purpose of this review is to analyze the different reaction mechanisms of the H/D exchange on org. substrates catalyzed by transition metal complexes in homogeneous phase. The metal-catalyzed H/D exchange is a multifaceted reaction whose mechanism depends strongly on the reaction conditions and on the metal complex used as a catalyst. It is possible to group the different mechanisms into three main families depending on the "role" and behavior of the catalyst: (i) Lewis acid-base catalysis; (ii) C-H activation (iii) insertion/β-elimination. For each macro-group, several representative examples are discussed and critically evaluated in order to provide the reader with keys to the understanding of how the different catalytic systems act and how their modification may affect their performance in terms of activity and selectivity. This knowledge is fundamental for designing improved organometallic H/D catalysts for labeling org. products in greener conditions with more cost-effective processes. - 14(a) Whisler, M.

(Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA)A review. The use of coordinating moieties as directing groups for the functionalization of arom. C-H bonds has become an established tool to enhance reactivity and induce regioselectivity. Nevertheless, with regard to the synthetic applicability of C-H activation, there is a growing interest in transformations in which the directing group can be fully abandoned, thus allowing the direct functionalization of simple benzene derivs. However, this approach requires the disclosure of new strategies to achieve reactivity and to control selectivity. In this review, recent advances in the emerging field of non-chelate-assisted C-H activation are discussed, highlighting some of the most intriguing and inspiring examples of induction of reactivity and selectivity.(b) Hartwig, J.

(American Chemical Society)The functionalization of C-H bonds has created new approaches to prepg. org. mols. by enabling new strategic "disconnections" during the planning of a synthetic route. Such functionalizations also have created the ability to derivatize complex mols. by modifying one or more of the many C-H bonds. For these reasons, researchers are developing new types of functionalization reactions of C-H bonds and new applications of these processes. These C-H bond functionalization reactions can be divided into two general classes: those directed by coordination to an existing functional group prior to the cleavage of the C-H bond (directed) and those occurring without coordination prior to cleavage of the C-H bond (undirected). The undirected functionalizations of C-H bonds are much less common and more challenging to develop than the directed reactions. This outlook will focus on undirected C-H bond functionalization, as well as related reactions that occur by a noncovalent assocn. of the catalyst prior to C-H bond cleavage. The inherent challenges of conducting undirected functionalizations of C-H bonds and the methods for undirected functionalization that are being developed will be presented, along with the factors that govern selectivity in these reactions.

In general, PtCl2 and K2PtCl4 provided the fewest turnovers, and species contg. bidentate ligands afforded higher turnover nos. than those with tridentate ligands.

(American Chemical Society)Heavier alk. earth (Ae) metal amide complexes Ae(NR2)2 (Ae = Ca, Sr, Ba) were found to be highly active catalysts for hydrogen isotope exchange (HIE). The activities for D/H exchange between C6D6 and H2 strongly increase with metal size (Ca < Sr < Ba) and with amide bulk: N(SiMe3)2 < N(DIPP)(SiiPr3)< N(SiiPr3)2, DIPP = 2,6-diisopropylphenyl. At 120°C and pressures of 10-50 bar, no hydrogenation side-products are produced, and TONs of 205 and TOFs of 268, competitive with those for precious metal catalysts, have been achieved. The reverse H/D exchange between C6H6 and D2 is even faster by a factor 1.5-2. Substrates also include a range of substituted arenes. Alkyl-substituted arom. rings are preferably deuterated in acidic benzylic positions, and this tendency increases with the no. of alkyl-substituents. Although unactivated (sp3)C-H units could not be deuterated, the (sp3)Si-H function in primary, secondary, and tertiary alkylsilanes could be converted. Two different pathways for C6H6/D2 isotope exchange have been evaluated by DFT calcns.: (A) a deprotonation/protonation mechanism and (B) direct nucleophilic arom. substitution. Although the exact nature of the catalyst(s) is unclear, the first step is the conversion of Ae(NR2)2 with D2 into R2NAeD which can aggregate to larger clusters. Energy profiles with model catalysts (iPr3Si)2NAeD and [(Me3Si)2NAeD]2 (Ae = Ca or Ba) show that the direct nucleophilic arom. substitution is the most likely mechanism for deuteration of arenes. The key to this unusual reaction is the initial formation of a π-arene···Ae complex which is followed by the generation of an intermediate with a Meisenheimer anion. Heavier Ae metal amide complexes are, despite the lack of partially filled d-orbitals for substrate activation, potent catalysts for HIE.(l) Dong, B.; Cong, X.; Hao, N.

(American Chemical Society)Catalytic methods for the direct introduction of hydrogen isotopes into org. mols. are essential to the development of improved pharmaceuticals and to the alteration of their absorption, distribution, metab., and excretion (ADME) properties. However, the development of homogeneous catalysts for selective incorporation of isotopes in the absence of directing groups under practical conditions remains a long-standing challenge. Herein, a phosphine-ligated, silver-carbonate complex catalyzes the site-selective deuteration of C-H bonds in five-membered arom. heterocycles and active pharmaceutical ingredients that have been resistant to catalytic H/D exchange. The reactions occur with CH3OD as a low-cost source of the isotope. The silver catalysts react with five-membered heteroarenes lacking directing groups, tolerate a wide range of functional groups, and react in both polar and nonpolar solvents. Mechanistic expts., including deuterium kinetic isotope effects, detn. of kinetic orders, and identification of the catalyst resting state, support C-H bond cleavage from a phosphine-ligated, silver-carbonate intermediate as the rate-detg. step of the catalytic cycle. - 20(a) Pony Yu, R.; Hesk, D.; Rivera, N.; Pelczer, I.; Chirik, P.

(Nature Publishing Group)A thorough understanding of the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of a drug in animal models is a crit. component of drug discovery and development. Such studies are performed in vivo and in vitro at various stages of the development process-ranging from preclin. absorption, distribution, metab. and excretion (ADME) studies to late-stage human clin. trials-to elucidate a drug mol.'s metabolic profile and to assess its toxicity. Radiolabeled compds., typically those that contain 14C or 3H isotopes, are one of the most powerful and widely deployed diagnostics for these studies. The introduction of radiolabels using synthetic chem. enables the direct tracing of the drug mol. without substantially altering its structure or function. The ubiquity of C-H bonds in drugs and the relative ease and low cost assocd. with tritium (3H) make it an ideal radioisotope with which to conduct ADME studies early in the drug development process. Here we describe an iron-catalyzed method for the direct 3H labeling of pharmaceuticals by hydrogen isotope exchange, using tritium gas as the source of the radioisotope.

Neil; Rivera, Nelo; Hesk, David; Chirik, Paul J.ACS Catalysis (2018), 8 (11), 10210-10218CODEN: ACCACS; ISSN:2155-5435. (American Chemical Society)A nickel-catalyzed method for the site-selective hydrogen isotope exchange (HIE) of C(sp2)-H bonds in nitrogen heteroarenes is described and applied to the tritiation of pharmaceuticals. The α-diimine nickel hydride complex [(iPrDI)Ni(μ2-H)]2 (iPrDI = N,N'-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)-2,3-butanediimine) mediates efficient HIE when employed as a single component precatalyst or generated in situ from readily available and air-stable metal and ligand precursors (iPrDI, [(NEt3)Ni(OPiv)2]2 (Piv = pivaloyl) and (EtO)3SiH). The nickel catalyst offers distinct advantages over existing methods, including: (i) high HIE activity at low D2 or T2 pressure; (ii) tolerance of functional groups, including aryl chlorides, alcs., secondary amides, and sulfones; (iii) activity with nitrogen-rich mols. such as the chemotherapeutic imatinib; and (iv) the ability to promote HIE in sterically hindered positions generally inaccessible with other transition metal catalysts. Representative active pharmaceutical ingredients were tritiated with specific activities in excess of the thresholds required for drug absorption, distribution, metab., and excretion studies (1 Ci/mmol) and for protein receptor-ligand binding assays (15 Ci/mmol). The activity and selectivity of the nickel-catalyzed method are demonstrated by comparison with the current state-of-the-art single-site (iridium and iron) and heterogeneous (Raney nickel and rhodium black) catalysts. A pathway involving C(sp2)-H activation by a α-diimine nickel hydride monomer is consistent with the exptl. measured relative rate consts. for HIE with electronically disparate pyridines, the pressure-dependence of activity, positional selectivity preferences, and kinetic isotope effects.(c) Zarate, C.; Yang, H.; Bezdek, M.

Diimine-supported, three-coordinate Ni(I)-X complexes are proposed as key intermediates in a host of catalytic transformations such as C-C and C-heteroatom cross-coupling and C-H functionalization but have until now remained synthetically elusive. A combination of structural, spectroscopic, electrochem., and computational studies were used to establish the electronic structure of each monomeric [(ipcADI)NiX] (X = Cl, Br, I) complex as a Ni(I) deriv. supported by a redox-neutral α-diimine chelate. The dimeric Ni hydride, [(ipcADI)Ni(μ2-H)]2, was prepd. and characterized by x-ray diffraction; however, magnetic measurements and 1H NMR spectroscopy support monomer formation at ambient temp. in THF soln. This Ni hydride was used as a precatalyst for the H isotope exchange (HIE) of C-H bonds in arenes and pharmaceuticals. By virtue of the multisite reactivity and high efficiency, the new Ni precatalyst provided unprecedented high specific activities (50-99 Ci/mmol) in radiolabeling, meeting the threshold required for radioligand binding assays. Use of air-stable and readily synthesized Ni precursor, [(ipcADI)NiBr2], broad functional group tolerance, and compatibility with polar protic solvents are addnl. assets of the Ni-catalyzed HIE method.(d) Corpas, J.; Viereck, P.; Chirik, P.

The iron-catalyzed reaction proceeded with predictable regioselectivity, engaging sterically accessible C-H bonds including ortho-to-fluorine sites. The site selectivity for the catalytic HIE reaction was studied to identify the kinetic preferences for C-H activation. Structure-activity relationship studies with a series of iron precatalysts established that introduction of substituents at the 3- and 5-positions of pyridine of the pincer significantly accelerated HIE.

(Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA)The application of the Pd-catalyzed oxidative C-H olefination of arenes, also known as the Fujiwara-Moritani reaction, has traditionally been limited by the requirement for directing groups on the substrate or the need to use the arene in large excess, typically as a (co)solvent. Herein, the development of a catalytic system is described that, through the combined action of two complementary ligands, makes it possible to use directing-group-free arenes as limiting reagents for the first time. The reactions proceed under a combination of both steric and electronic control and enable the application of this powerful reaction to valuable arenes, which cannot be utilized in excess.(b) Chen, H.; Mondal, A.; Wedi, P.; van Gemmeren, M.

A common procedure to insert alkynes into (hetero)arenes, such as the thiophenes studied herein, consists of a halogenation followed by a Sonogashira cross-coupling. The regioselectivity of this approach depends entirely on the halogenation step. Similarly, direct alkynylations of thiophenes were described that follow the same regioselectivity patterns. Herein the authors report the development of a palladium catalyzed C-H activation/alkynylation of thiophenes. The method is applicable to a broad range of thiophene substrates. For 3-substituted substrates where controlling the regioselectivity between the C2 and C5 position is particularly challenging, two sets of reaction conditions enable a regiodivergent reaction, giving access to each regioisomer selectively. Both protocols use the thiophene as limiting reagent and show a broad scope, rendering the authors' method suitable for late-stage modification.(f) Santiago, C.; Chen, H.; Mondal, A.; van Gemmeren, M.

(Nature Research)The directed activation of carbon-hydrogen bonds (C-H) is important in the development of synthetically useful reactions, owing to the proximity-induced reactivity and selectivity that is enabled by coordinating functional groups. Palladium-catalyzed non-directed C-H activation could potentially enable further useful reactions, because it can reach more distant sites and be applied to substrates that do not contain appropriate directing groups; however, its development has faced substantial challenges assocd. with the lack of sufficiently active palladium catalysts. Currently used palladium catalysts are reactive only with electron-rich arenes, unless an excess of arene is used, which limits synthetic applications. Here we report a 2-pyridone ligand that binds to palladium and accelerates non-directed C-H functionalization with arene as the limiting reagent. This protocol is compatible with a broad range of arom. substrates and we demonstrate direct functionalization of advanced synthetic intermediates, drug mols. and natural products that cannot be used in excessive quantities. We also developed C-H olefination and carboxylation protocols, demonstrating the applicability of our methodol. to other transformations. The site selectivity in these transformations is governed by a combination of steric and electronic effects, with the pyridone ligand enhancing the influence of sterics on the selectivity, thus providing complementary selectivity to directed C-H functionalization.(b) Naksomboon, K.; Valderas, C.; Gómez-Martínez, M.; Álvarez-Casao, Y.; Fernández-Ibáñez, M.

These results reveal the potential of spatial anion control in transition-metal catalysis for the functionalization of C-H bonds under mild conditions.(h) Yin, B.; Fu, M.; Wang, L.; Liu, J.; Zhu, Q.

(Royal Society of Chemistry)Herein, a novel strategy for nondirected C-H alkenylation of alkyl aryl ethers (anisole, phenetole, Pr Ph ether, Bu Ph ether and benzyl Ph ether), cyclic aryl ethers (1,4-benzodioxane, 2,3-dihydrobenzofuran, dibenzofuran), and di-Ph oxide promoted by a dual ligand catalyst was demonstrated. This catalytic system readily achieved the highly efficient alkenylation of aryl ethers. Moreover, the proposed methodol. was successfully employed for the late-stage modification of complex drugs contg. the aryl ether motif. Interestingly, the compds. developed herein displayed fluorescent properties, which would facilitate their biol. applications. - 23Wedi, P.; Farizyan, M.; Bergander, K.; Mück-Lichtenfeld, C.; van Gemmeren, M.

(Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA)Recently palladium catalysts have been discovered that enable the directing-group-free C-H activation of arenes without requiring an excess of the arene substrate, thereby enabling methods for the late-stage modification of complex org. mols. The key to success has been the use of two complementary ligands, an N-acyl amino acid and an N-heterocycle. Detailed exptl. and computational mechanistic studies on the dual-ligand-enabled C-H activation of arenes have led us to identify the catalytically active species and a transition state model that explains the exceptional activity and selectivity of these catalysts. These findings are expected to be highly useful for further method development using this powerful class of catalysts.

(American Chemical Society)In this study, the late-stage β-C(sp3)-H deuteration of free carboxylic acids was described. On the basis of the finding that C-H activation with catalysts was reversible, the de-deuteration process was first optimized. The resulting method used ethylenediamine-based ligands and could be used to achieve the desired deuteration when using a deuterated solvent. The reported method allowed for the functionalization of a wide range of free carboxylic acids with diverse substitution patterns, as well as the late-stage deuteration of bioactive mols. and related frameworks and enables the functionalization of nonactivated methylene β-C(sp3)-H bonds for the first time.See the SI for details.
