The effect of micelles of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide on the SNAr reaction of azide ions with 1-halogeno-2,4-dinitrobenzenes and on the subsequent decomposition of the aryl azide product has been measured. The nucleophilic aromatic substitution reaction is shown to be subject to significant micellar catalysis whereas the subsequent decomposition of the aryl azide is not.

A novel method for preparing aromatic compounds containing cyclopropoxy via nucleophilic aromatic substitution reaction (SNAr) of fluoroaromatic compounds with cyclopropanol under relatively mild conditions is presented. As compared to the approaches reported previously for preparing 1-(cyclopropyloxy)-2-nitrobenzene, the one proposed in this work is simplified without sacrificing the yields: When the reaction was performed at 75 °C with Cs2CO3 as the base and DMF as solvent, after 6 h the yield was up to 90%. Finally, various fluoroaromatic compounds were employed as substrates for a test that proves a wide application scope of the method.

The preparation of 3-hydroxymethyl-1-tetradecylpyridinium bromide and its use as a catalyst of nucleophilic aromatic substitution and also amide hydrolysis are reported. It was found that the hydroxydehalogenation of nitro-activated aryl halides was much faster in these micelles than in the presence of cetyl(2-hydroxyethyl)dimethylammonium bromide. It was concluded that the increased catalysis of nucleophilic aromatic substitution by this micelle was due to a faster decomposition of the aryl micellar ether which must occur before the phenolate product is released. No such difference in the two micelles was found for amide or thioamide hydrolysis since in these reactions the product amine is produced in the first step of the reaction and decomposition of the acylated micelle is not required in the rate-determining step of the reaction.

AbstractAn asymmetric organocatalytic nucleophilic aromatic substitution reaction of azlactones with electron-deficient aryls was established. A variety of α-aryl α-alkyl α-amino acid esters and peptides were obtained in decent yields and stereoselectivities. A new bifunctional catalytic mode involving charge-transfer interaction and hydrogen bonding is proposed to explain the enantioselectivity.
