Abstract
This thesis is one part of a general research of the novel, non-expensive and environmentally friendly methods for the synthesis of the interesting molecules in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical or material field. In particular, the objective consists of creating the C-C and C-heteroatom (S, N, P) bonds by using copper, manganese catalysis or transition-metal-free system.In the first part, a copper-catalyzed palladium-free Sonogashira reaction has been realized under biphasic conditions (water / organic substrates) allowing decreasing the copper loading up to 0.02 – 0.2 mol% and a potential intermediate species of this reaction, corresponding to a copper cluster linked with acetylide moiety, has been identified by X-ray diffraction.In the second part, we described a novel carbon dioxide involved copper-catalyzed system for the methylthiolation of aryl halides using dimethylsufoxide as a source of methylthio group. The presence of carbon dioxide is a crucial factor for the formation of aryl methyl sulfides products and its role is discussed.The third part describes the manganese-catalyzed homocoupling and cross-coupling reactions via the formation in situ of aryllithium from corresponding aryl halides or arenes. According to the experimental conditions, the symmetrical or unsymmetrical biaryls could be obtained. An intermediate complex of manganese which could involve in the reaction mechanism was detected by ESI-MS.Finally, a transition-metal-free system associating DMF with t-BuOK has been developed to realize the arylation of aromatic halide derivatives and various nucleophiles such as pyrazol, imidazole, dialkyl disulfide or diarylphosphine oxide. This project is at a preliminary stage.
