A copper-catalyzed intermolecular three-component asymmetric radical 1,2-carboalkynylation of alkenes has been developed, providing straightforward access to diverse chiral alkynes from readily available alkyl halides and terminal alkynes. The utilization of a cinchona alkaloid-derived multidentate N,N,P-ligand is crucial for the efficient radical generation from mildly oxidative precursors by copper and the effective inhibition of the undesired Glaser coupling side reaction. The substrate scope is broad, covering (hetero)aryl-, alkynyl-, and aminocarbonyl-substituted alkenes, (hetero)aryl and alkyl as well as silyl alkynes, and tertiary to primary alkyl radical precursors with excellent functional group compatibility. Facile transformations of the obtained chiral alkynes have also been demonstrated, highlighting the excellent complementarity of this protocol to direct 1,2-dicarbofunctionalization reactions with C(sp2/sp3)-based reagents.

Regio/Enantioselective synthesis of niphatesines A-D is achieved making use of Pd(0) assisted 3-alkylation of pyridine as the key step.Absolute configuration of niphatesines C and D is established.
Interconversion of nicotine enantiomers during heating and implications for smoke from combustible cigarettes, heated tobacco products, and electronic cigarettes

Physiological properties of (R)-nicotine have differences compared with (S)-nicotine, and the subject of (S)- and (R)-nicotine ratio in smoking or vaping related items is of considerable interest. A Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry/Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method for the analysis of (S)- and (R)-nicotine has been developed and applied to samples of nicotine from different sources, nicotine pyrolyzates, several types of tobacco, smoke from combustible cigarettes, smoke from heated tobacco products, e-liquids, and particulate matter obtained from e-cigarettes aerosol. The separation was achieved on a Chiracel OJ-3 column, 250 × 4.6 mm with 3-μm particles using a nonaqueous mobile phase. The detection was performed using atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) in positive mode. The only transition measured for the analysis of nicotine was 163.1 → 84.0. The method has been summarily validated. For the analysis, the samples of tobacco and smoke from combustible cigarettes were subject to a cleanup procedure using solid phase extraction (SPE). It was demonstrated that nicotine upon heating above 450°C for several minutes starts decomposing, and some formation of (R)-enantiomer from a sample of 99% (S)-nicotine is observed. An analogous process takes place when a 99% (R)-nicotine is heated and forms low levels of (S)-nicotine. This interconversion has the effect of slightly increasing the content of (R)-nicotine in smoke compared with the level in tobacco for combustible cigarettes and for heated tobacco products. The (S)/(R) ratio of nicotine enantiomers in e-liquids was identical with the ratio for the particulate phase of aerosols generated by e-cigarette vaping.

Herein, we report an iron-catalyzed, convenient, and expedient strategy for the synthesis of styrene and naphthalene derivatives with the liberation of dihydrogen. The use of a catalyst derived from an earth-abundant metal provides a sustainable strategy to olefins. This method exhibits wide substrate scope (primary and secondary alcohols) functional group tolerance (amino, nitro, halo, alkoxy, thiomethoxy, and S- A nd N-heterocyclic compounds) that can be scaled up. The unprecedented synthesis of 1-methyl naphthalenes proceeds via tandem methenylation/double dehydrogenation. Mechanistic study shows that the cleavage of the C-H bond of alcohol is the rate-determining step.
