- A novel β-(oxy)alkyl radical during copper(I)-mediated stereoselective synthesis of (Z)-ene-1,4-diones in a reaction of 2,2,2-trichloro-1-phenylethanone
-
A novel β-(oxy)alkyl radical derived from trichloro methyl compound containing neither a suitably located C-C multiple bond nor a leaving group or a H-atom at the β-position of the radical in a reaction of 2,2,2-trichloro-1-phenyl-ethanone with 2 mol equiv each of CuCl and bpy in refluxing DCE under a N2 atm underwent intramolecular heterolysis (just like formation of intact radical cation-anion pair) during stereoselective radical dimerization to Z-ene-1,4-dione along with small amount of reductive dechlorination product. The stereochemistry was established by X-ray diffraction spectroscopy of various solid crystalline products.

- One-Carbon Homologation of Primary Alcohols and the Reductive Homologation of Aldehydes Involving a Jocic-Type Reaction
-
(Trichloromethyl)carbinols, which are formed in one operation from either alcohols or aldehydes, can be converted into primary alcohols in a Jocic-type reaction involving LiBH4. The net result is a convenient two-step, one-carbon homologation of primary alcohols or a reductive one-carbon homologation of aldehydes featuring a broad substrate scope. The method is step-economical, and it nicely complements established one-carbon homologation strategies.

- β-(Carbonatoxy)alkyl radicals: A new subset of β-(ester)alkyl radical fragmentation during copper(I)-mediated synthesis of 1,1-dichloro-1-alkenes
-
A new subset of β-(ester)alkyl radicals is presented. It is the first study on the chemistry of β-(alkoxycarbonyloxy)alkyl radicals that fill the gap in the spectrum of the migrating groups in β-(ester)alkyl radical reactions. The change from less nucleofugal (acetate) group to the more nucleofugal (carbonate) group in the spectrum of the migrating group changed the reaction path from rearrangement to fragmentation. This approach has been used for the synthesis of 1,1-dichloroalkenes in high yields. The formation of dichloroalkenes was accounted by the involvement of alkene radical cation and carbonate anion pair (a CIP) as a result of heterolysis of the CO bond of the carbonate at the β-position of the β-(alkoxycarbonyloxy)alkyl radical. The alkene radical cation was trapped by nucleophilic reaction with MeOH to form methyl ester.

- One-pot synthesis of trichloromethyl carbinols from primary alcohols
-
Versatile trichloromethyl carbinols can be prepared in one pot from primary alcohols by treatment with Dess-Martin periodinane (DMP) in CHCl3 followed by introduction of commercially available 1,5,7-triazabicyclo[4.4.0] dec-5-ene (TBD). A modification of the method was used to convert chiral primary alcohol (R)-(-)-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolane-4-methanol to the corresponding trichloromethyl carbinol with complete stereochemical fidelity, despite the reactant proceeding through a base-sensitive aldehyde intermediate.

- General and practical conversion of aldehydes to homologated carboxylic acids
-
(Chemical Equation Presented) The reaction of aldehydes with trichloromethide followed by sodium borohydride or sodium phenylseleno(triethyl) borate under basic conditions affords homologated carboxylic acids in high yields. This operationally simple procedure provides a practical, efficient alternative to other homologation protocols. The approach is compatible with sensitive aldehydes including enals and enolizable aldehydes. It also offers convenient access to α-monodeuterated carboxylic acids.

A good yielding phase-transfer-catalyzed procedure for one-pot preparation of α-hydroxy acids from carbonyl compounds and sodium trichloroacetate by in situ addition and hydrolysis under microwave irradiation is described. Decomposition of sodium trichloroacetate is strongly accelerated by the presence of quaternary ammonium. The reaction can be conducted in water. Copyright Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.

- The Reaction of Polyhalogenomethanes with Aldehydes and with 1,3,5-Trinitrobenzene in the Presence of Tin(II) Salts: Evidence for the Formation of Trihalogenomethyl Anions
-
The (previously reported) formation of 2,2,2-tribromoethanols by the reaction of aromatic aldehydes with tetrabromomethane in the presence of tin(II) fluoride in dimethyl sulphoxide solution also occurs when tin(II) chloride is used in place of the fluoride.Analogous reactions occur with certain other tetrahalogenomethanes, but not with trihalogenomethanes nor with fluorine-containing tetrahalogenomethanes.When the aldehyde is replaced by 1,3,5-trinitrobenzene, Meisenheimer adducts derived from trihalogenomethyl anions are formed.The trihalogenomethyl anions are thought to be a product of the two-electron reduction of tetrahalogenomethanes by tin (II).

- The Reaction of Trihalgenomethyl Anions with Carbonyl Compounds: Competitive Reactivity Comparisons and Applications to the Synthesis of α-Trihalogenomethyl Alcohols
-
Trihalogenomethyl anions, generated by decarboxilation of trichloro- and tribromo-acetic acid in dimethyl sulphoxide solution, react with added aldehydes.In the presence of 1,3,5-trinitrobenzene, the reaction with aldehydes competes with the formation of the coloured Meisenheimer adduct.The reduction in absorbance from the value in the absence of aldehyde has been used tomeasure the reactivity of trihlogenomethyl anions towards a series of aldehydes relative to their reactivity towards trinitrobenzene.For 4-substituted benzaldehydes, the reactivities obey a linear p?- relationship.The most reactive aldehyde used is only two times less reactive towards CCl3(1-) or CBr3(1-) than hydrogen ions, and it is concluded that, in dimethyl sulphoxide solutions, the reaction between trichloromethyl anions and hydrogen ions is not encounter-controlled.The reactions with aldehydes have been used to prepare several new compounds of the formula RCH(OY)CX3 where R = aryl or pyridyl, X = Br or Cl, and Y = H or COCH3.
