- Room Temperature Metal-Catalyzed Oxidative Acylation of Electron-Deficient Heteroarenes with Alkynes, Its Mechanism, and Application Studies
-
Herein, we report an original one-step, simple, room-temperature, regioselective Minisci reaction for the acylation of electron-deficient heteroarenes with alkynes. The method has broad functional group compatibility and gives exclusively monoacylated products in good to excellent yields. The mechanistic pathway was analyzed based on a series of experiments confirming the involvement of a radical pathway. The 18O-labeling experiment suggested that water is a source of oxygen in the acylated product, and head space GC-MS experiment shows the C-C cleavage occurs via release as CO2.

- Aerobic oxidation of PdII to PdIV by active radical reactants: Direct C-H nitration and acylation of arenes via oxygenation process with molecular oxygen
-
A Pd-catalyzed aerobic oxidative C-H nitration and acylation of arenes with simple and readily available tert-butyl nitrite (TBN) and toluene as the radical precursors has been developed. Molecular oxygen is employed as the terminal oxidant and oxygen source to initiate the active radical reactants. Many different directing groups such as pyridine, pyrimidine, pyrazole, pyridol, pyridylketone, oxime, and azo groups can be employed in these novel transformations. The PdII/PdIV catalytic cycle through a radical process is the most likely pathway for these oxidative C-H nitration and acylation reactions.
