Transition metal-catalyzed semi-hydrogenation of alkynes has become one of the most popular methods for alkene synthesis. Specifically, the noble metal Pd, Rh, and Ru-based heterogeneous catalysts have been widely studied and utilized in both academia and industry. But the supported noble metal catalysts are generally suffering from leaching or aggregation during harsh reaction conditions, which resulting low catalytic reactivity and stability. Herein, we reported the facile synthesis of nitrogen doped graphene encapsulated Pd catalyst and its application in the chemo-selective semi-hydrogenation of alkynes. The graphene layer served as “bulletproof” over the active Pd Nano metal species, which was confirmed by X-ray and TEM analysis, enhanced the catalytic stability during the reaction conditions. The optimized prepared Pd@N/C catalyst showed excellent efficiency in semi-hydrogenation of phenylacetylene and other types of alkynes with un-functionalized or functionalized substituents, including the hydrogenation sensitive functional groups (NO2, ester, and halogen).

A single-step, stereoselective protocol for the synthesis of unsymmetrically substituted (E)-3-allylideneoxindole and (E)-3-allylidenebenzofuran from readily accessible starting materials using palladium binaphthyl nanoparticles (Pd-BNPs) has been developed. Pd-BNP showing a wide range of functional group tolerance and an immense array of substrate scope have been explored with the successful synthesis of the drug molecule "tubulin polymerization inhibitor" free from trace metal impurities. The model reaction is extended to a gram-scale synthesis, and one of the products is utilized for derivatization. The Pd-BNP has been recycled up to 5 catalytic cycles without any loss in reaction yields and particle size of nanoparticles.

Paragraph 0061-0063, (2018/11/03)
The invention discloses a method for synthesizing an olefin compound by a photo-induced one-pot process. The method comprises the following step of subjecting a halohydrocarbon and an aldehyde compound to a reaction under the condition of irradiation in an inert atmosphere by taking alkali metal carbonate as a base, taking an organic phosphine compound as an adjuvant and taking a photosensitizer as a catalyst, thereby obtaining the olefin compound. According to the method disclosed by the invention, the olefin compound is produced from the halohydrocarbon and the aldehyde compound in a high-yield manner under the condition of irradiation in the inert atmosphere under normal-temperature reaction conditions by taking acetonitrile, DMF (N,N-dimethylformamide) or DMA (N,N-dimethylacetamide) asa solvent, taking an organic phosphine reagent as a reaction adjuvant, taking the alkali metal carbonate as the base and taking the photosensitizer as the catalyst. Compared with the conventional olefin synthesis methods, the method disclosed by the invention has the obvious advantages that the reaction raw materials are readily available, the tolerance to a variety of functional groups on halohydrocarbons and aldehydes is high, the yield is high, the separation and purification of a product are simple and convenient, and the like.
Chemoselectivity in the Kosugi-Migita-Stille coupling of bromophenyl triflates and bromo-nitrophenyl triflates with (ethenyl)tributyltin

Kosugi-Migita-Stille cross coupling reactions of (ethenyl)tributyltin with all isomeric permutations of bromophenyl triflate and bromo-nitrophenyl triflate were examined in order to determine the chemoselectivity of carbon-bromine versus carbon-triflate bond coupling under different reaction conditions. In general, highly selective carbon-bromine bond cross couplings were observed using for example bis(triphenylphosphine)palladium dichloride (2 mol-%) in 1,4-dioxane at reflux. In contrast, reactions using the same pre-catalyst but in the presence of a three-fold excess of lithium chloride in N,N-dimethylformamide at ambient temperature were in most cases selective for coupling at the carbon-triflate bond. Overall, isolated yields and the selectivity for carbon-bromine bond coupling were significantly higher compared to carbon-triflate bond coupling.

The iron(III)-polypyridyl complex and its derivatives showed sufficient oxidizing potential to act as a one-electron oxidant, producing radical cations from olefins and promoting the efficient radical cation [2 + 2] and [2 + 4] cycloaddition reactions. Subsequent chain propagation afforded trisubstituted cyclobutane or cyclohexene derivatives, and this facile route enables the replacement of rare metals with sustainable, green, and inexpensive iron in radical cation cycloadditions.

A novel method for the catalytic asymmetric dearomatization by visible-light-activated [2+2] photocycloaddition with benzofurans and one example of a benzothiophene is reported, thereby providing chiral tricyclic structures with up to four stereocenters including quaternary stereocenters. The benzofurans and the benzothiophene are functionalized at the 2-position with a chelating N-acylpyrazole moiety which permits the coordination of a visible-light-activatable chiral-at-rhodium Lewis acid catalyst. Computational molecular modeling revealed the origin of the unusual regioselectivity and identified the heteroatom in the heterocycle to be key for the regiocontrol.

The copper(II)-promoted free-radical oxidative difunctionalization of terminal alkenes to access ketoazides by utilizing molecular oxygen has been reported. A series of styrene derivatives have been evaluated and were found to be compatible to give the desired difunctionalized products in moderate to good yields. The role of molecular oxygen both as an oxidant and oxygen atom source in this catalytic transformation has been unquestionably demonstrated by 18O-labeling studies and a radical mechanistic pathway involving the oxidative formation of azidyl radicals is also designed. This environment-friendly catalytic oxidative protocol can transform aldehyde to nitrile.
α-Alkylidene-γ-butyrolactone Formation via Bi(OTf)3-Catalyzed, Dehydrative, Ring-Opening Cyclizations of Cyclopropyl Carbinols: Understanding Substituent Effects and Predicting E/Z Selectivity

, p. 10883 - 10897 (2017/10/27)
A Bi(OTf)3-catalyzed ring-opening cyclization of (hetero)aryl cyclopropyl carbinols to form α-alkylidene-γ-butyrolactones (ABLs) is reported. This transformation represents different chemoselectivity from previous reports that demonstrated formation of (hetero)aryl-fused cyclohexa-1,3-dienes upon acid-promoted cyclopropyl carbinol ring opening. ABLs are obtained in up to 89% yield with a general preference for the E-isomers. Mechanistically, Bi(OTf)3 serves as a stable and easy to handle precursor to TfOH. TfOH then catalyzes the formation of cyclopropyl carbinyl cations, which undergo ring opening, intramolecular trapping by the neighboring ester group, subsequent hydrolysis, and loss of methanol resulting in the formation of the ABLs. The nature and relative positioning of the substituents on both the carbinol and the cyclopropane determine both chemo- and stereoselective outcomes. Carbinol substituents determine the extent of cyclopropyl carbinyl cation formation. The cyclopropane donor substituents determine the overall reaction chemoselectivity. Weakly stabilizing or electron-poor donor groups provide better yields of the ABL products. In contrast, copious amounts of competing products are observed with highly stabilizing cyclopropane donor substituents. Finally, a predictive model for E/Z selectivity was developed using DFT calculations.
Lewis base-assisted Lewis acid-catalyzed selective alkene formation via alcohol dehydration and synthesis of 2-cinnamyl-1,3-dicarbonyl compounds from 2-aryl-3,4-dihydropyrans

Acid-catalyzed dehydration of alcohols has been widely employed for the synthesis of alkenes. However, activated alcohols when employed as substrates in dehydration reactions are often plagued by the lack of alkene selectivity. In this work, the reaction system can be significantly improved through enhancing the performance of Lewis acid catalysts in the dehydration of activated alcohols by combining with a Lewis base. Observations of the reaction mechanism revealed that the Lewis base component might have changed the reaction rate order. Although both the principal and side reaction rates decreased, the effect was markedly more observed on the latter reaction. Therefore, the selectivity of the dehydration reaction was improved. On the basis of this observation, a new route to synthesize 2-cinnamyl-1,3-dicarbonyl compounds was developed by using 2-aryl-3,4-dihydropyran as a starting substrate in the presence of a Lewis acid/Lewis base combined catalyst system.
