Birch-Type Photoreduction of Arenes and Heteroarenes by Sensitized Electron Transfer

The direct reduction of arenes and heteroarenes by visible-light irradiation remains challenging, as the energy of a single photon is not sufficient for breaking aromatic stabilization. Shown herein is that the energy accumulation of two visible-light photons allows the dearomatization of arenes and heteroarenes. Mechanistic investigations confirm that the combination of energy-transfer and electron-transfer processes generates an arene radical anion, which is subsequently trapped by hydrogen-atom transfer and finally protonated to form the dearomatized product. The photoreduction converts planar aromatic feedstock compounds into molecular skeletons that are of use in organic synthesis.

Synthesis of 1-aryl- benzocycloalkane derivatives via one-pot two-step reaction of benzocyclonone, tosylhydrazide, and arylboronic acid

A metal-free one-pot two-step reductive coupling reaction of benzocyclonone, tosylhydrazide, and arylboronic acid was developed for the formation of a C(sp3)–C(sp2) bond, which enabled the efficient synthesis of 1-aryl-benzocycloalkane compounds in moderate to good yields on a multi-gram scale. Moreover, five- and six-membered benzocyclic ketones are also suitable substrates for this reaction. Notably, this protocol was also found to be suitable for synthesizing 3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-one, an important intermediate in the synthesis of indatraline.

Alkene Hydrogenations by Soluble Iron Nanocluster Catalysts

The replacement of noble metal technologies and the realization of new reactivities with earth-abundant metals is at the heart of sustainable synthesis. Alkene hydrogenations have so far been most effectively performed by noble metal catalysts. This study reports an iron-catalyzed hydrogenation protocol for tri- and tetra-substituted alkenes of unprecedented activity and scope under mild conditions (1–4 bar H2, 20 °C). Instructive snapshots at the interface of homogeneous and heterogeneous iron catalysis were recorded by the isolation of novel Fe nanocluster architectures that act as catalyst reservoirs and soluble seeds of particle growth.
