Ti-Pd alloy catalysts were developed for the cross β-arylmethylation between arylmethylalcohols and different primary alcohols via a hydrogen autotransfer mechanism. The alloy catalysts could be reused multiple times without the need for pre-activation. Analysis of the reaction solution by inductively coupled plasma atomic absorption spectroscopy indicated that only a minimal amount of Ti and no Pd was leached from the catalyst.

A simple method for the cross β-alkylation of linear alcohols with benzyl alcohols in the presence of DMF-stabilized iridium nanoparticles was developed. The nanoparticles were prepared in one-step and thoroughly characterized. Furthermore, the optimum reaction conditions have a wide substrate scope and excellent product selectivity.
Cu-catalyzed cross-coupling of benzylboronic esters and epoxides

A reaction between epoxides and benzylboronic acid pinacol esters is described. CuI was found to be an effective catalyst of this transformation upon activation of the benzylboronic ester with an alkyllithium reagent. The reaction was very efficient and a variety of substituted epoxides were found to be good substrates with good regioselectivity for substitution at the less substituted side of the epoxide. A reaction using an enantioenriched secondary benzylboronic ester was found to not be stereospecific.
