Abstract
Directed 'ortho' Metalation (D'o'M) of the readily prepared 'N,N'-diethyl naphthalene-1,8-dicarboxamide leads, after electrophilic quench, to 2- and 2,7-substituted 'N,N'-diethyl naphthalene-1,8-dicarboxamide products as a function of the conditions. When the 2 and 2,7 substituents are halogens ('N,N'-diethyl-2-iodonaphthalene-1,8-dicarboxamide, ' N,N'-diethyl-2,7-dibromonaphthalene-1,8-dicarboxamide, ' N,N'-diethyl-2,7-diiodonaphthalene-1,8-dicarboxamide, Suzuki-Miyaura Pd-catalyzed cross coupling methodology was employed to form 2-aryl and 2,7-diaryl-' N,N'-diethyl naphthalene-1,8-dicarboxamides. Treatment of ' N,N'-diethyl-2,7-diphenylnaphthalene-1,8-dicarboxamide leads to the mono fluorenone of 'N,N'-diethyl-2,7-diphenylnaphthalene-1,8-dicarboxamide by a Directed remote Metalation (DreM) reaction. The scope and limitations of these methodologies are presented. Different ratios of 2- and 2,7-deuterated products are obtained as a function of conditions and these results are discussed. Rotational barriers of the C-Ar bond rotation have been determined for N,N-diethyl naphthalene-1,8-dicarboxamide using VT NMR. The X-ray structure of ' N,N'-diethyl-2,7-bis(trimethylsilanyl)naphthalene-1,8-dicarboxamide is presented.
