Paragraph 0082-0084; 0097-0099, (2022/04/08)
The invention discloses a method for synthesizing nitro (hetero) aromatic hydrocarbon, and belongs to the field of organic synthesis. According to the method, simple (hetero) aromatic hydrocarbon is taken as an initial raw material and is stirred and reacted in an organic solvent at 40-100 DEG C under the action of a nitration reagent, a lewis acid catalyst and protective gas, and nitro (hetero) aromatic hydrocarbon can be obtained. The method provided by the invention has the advantages of cheap and easily available raw materials, mild reaction conditions, simple preparation process, good chemical selectivity, wide substrate application range, easy amplification and the like, has great application potential, and lays a good foundation for industrial production.

Abundant aromatic carboxylic acids exist in great structural diversity from nature and synthesis. To date, the synthetically valuable decarboxylative functionalization of benzoic acids is realized mainly by transition-metal-catalyzed decarboxylative cross couplings. However, the high activation barrier for thermal decarboxylative carbometalation that often requires 140 °C reaction temperature limits both the substrate scope as well as the scope of suitable reactions that can sustain such conditions. Numerous reactions, for example, decarboxylative fluorination that is well developed for aliphatic carboxylic acids, are out of reach for the aromatic counterparts with current reaction chemistry. Here, we report a conceptually different approach through a low-barrier photoinduced ligand to metal charge transfer (LMCT)-enabled radical decarboxylative carbometalation strategy, which generates a putative high-valent arylcopper(III) complex, from which versatile facile reductive eliminations can occur. We demonstrate the suitability of our new approach to address previously unrealized general decarboxylative fluorination of benzoic acids.

Selenium-catalysed oxidations are highly sought after in organic synthesis and biology. Herein, we report our studies on the on water selenium mediated oxidation of anilines. In the presence of diphenyl diselenide or benzeneseleninic acid, anilines react with hydrogen peroxide, providing direct and selective access to nitroarenes. On the other hand, the use of selenium dioxide or sodium selenite leads to azoxyarenes. Careful mechanistic analysis and 77Se NMR studies revealed that only Se(iv) species, such as benzeneperoxyseleninic acid, are the active oxidants involved in the catalytic cycle operating in water and leading to nitroarenes. While other selenium-catalysed oxidations occurring in organic solvents have been recently demonstrated to proceed through Se(vi) key intermediates, the on water oxidation of anilines to nitroarenes does not. These findings shed new light on the multifaceted nature of organoselenium-catalysed transformations and open new directions to exploit selenium-based catalysis.
