A novel series of bis Indy-NHC gold complexes have been developed and investigated via a mild Ag-carbene transfer route. The obtained complexes were characterized by NMR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis. The catalytic property of these gold complexes was further evaluated in the oxidation of benzylic. The gold complex E1 showed a high catalytic activity in the oxidation of various benzylic substrates, resulting in the corresponding carbonyl compounds with excellent yields using TBHP as oxidant.

A sp3 C[sbnd]H bond functionalization and C[sbnd]C bond cleavage were realized by AIBN/O2 catalyst system, providing a series of benzophenones under mild reaction conditions. The mechanistic study shows that a peroxide intermediate is involved in this transformation, and in the case of diphenylmethanes, the sp3 C[sbnd]C bond is cleaved through the peroxide rearrangement, which might provides a new way to cleave relatively strong C[sbnd]C bond and be applied to more general C[sbnd]C bond activation.
Chemoselective and ligand-free aerobic oxidation of benzylic alcohols to carbonyl compounds using alumina-supported mesoporous nickel nanoparticle as an efficient recyclable heterogeneous catalyst

An economically efficient and operationally simple ligand-free protocol for the chemoselective oxidation of benzylic alcohols to carbonyl compounds has been developed using alumina-supported nickel nanoparticles as a stable recyclable heterogeneous catalyst along with potassium tert-butoxide in the presence of aerial oxygen as an eco-friendly oxidant. The aliphatic alcohols remained unaffected under the present condition. Excellent chemoselectivity has also been demonstrated through intermolecular and intramolecular competition experiments. This protocol accommodates a diverse range of substituents with the tolerance of various sensitive moieties during the reaction. The catalyst could be recovered by filtration and reused consecutively without any significant loss in the catalytic activity. Moreover, the heterogeneity of the catalyst has also been established by the “hot filtration method (Sheldon's test)”.

Compounds a containing bicyclo[1.1.1]pentane (BCP) adjacent to a chiral center can be prepared with high enantiomeric excess through asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (ATH) of adjacent ketones. In the reduction step, the BCP occupies the position distant from the η6-arene of the catalyst. The reduction was applied to the synthesis of a BCP analogue of the antihistamine drug neobenodine.

The dual function and role of iron(0) pentacarbonyl [Fe(CO)5] has been identified in gaseous CO-free carbonylative Suzuki-Miyaura cross-couplings, in which Fe(CO)5supplied COin situ, leading to the propagation of catalytically active Pd-Fe nanoparticles. Compared with typical carbonylative reaction conditions, CO gas (at high pressures), specialised exogenous ligands and inert reaction conditions were avoided. Our developed reaction conditions are mild, do not require specialised CO high pressure equipment, and exhibit wide functional group tolerance, giving a library of biaryl ketones in good yields.

The cross-coupling of aryl esters has emerged as a powerful platform for the functionalization of otherwise inert acyl C-O bonds in chemical synthesis and catalysis. Herein, we report a combined experimental and computational study on the acyl Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling of aryl esters mediated by well-defined, air- and moisture-stable Pd(ii)-NHC precatalysts [Pd(NHC)(μ-Cl)Cl]2. We present a comprehensive evaluation of [Pd(NHC)(μ-Cl)Cl]2 precatalysts and compare them with the present state-of-the-art [(Pd(NHC)allyl] precatalysts bearing allyl-type throw-away ligands. Most importantly, the study reveals [Pd(NHC)(μ-Cl)Cl]2 as the most reactive precatalysts discovered to date in this reactivity manifold. The unique synthetic utility of this unconventional O-C(O) cross-coupling is highlighted in the late-stage functionalization of pharmaceuticals and sequential chemoselective cross-coupling, providing access to valuable ketone products by a catalytic mechanism involving Pd insertion into the aryl ester bond. Furthermore, we present a comprehensive study of the catalytic cycle by DFT methods. Considering the clear advantages of [Pd(NHC)(μ-Cl)Cl]2 precatalysts on several levels, including facile one-pot synthesis, superior atom-economic profile to all other Pd(ii)-NHC catalysts, and versatile reactivity, these should be considered as the 'first-choice' catalysts for all routine applications in ester O-C(O) bond activation.

The development of robust, more efficient, general, easily accessible Pd(II)–NHC pre-catalysts remains a key issue in cross-coupling applications. A selection of well-defined, air and moisture stable [Pd(NHC)Cl(1-tBu-indenyl)] (NHC=IPr, IPrCl, IMes, SIMes, IPr*) pre-catalysts have been synthesized in good to excellent yields by reacting [Pd(1-tBu-indenyl)(μ-Cl)]2 and various NHC?HCl precursors in the presence of the weak base K2CO3 in green acetone. The synthesized Pd(II)-NHC derivatives displayed excellent catalytic activity in classical Suzuki-Miyaura and Buchwald–Hartwig reactions, especially when IPrCl is employed as ancillary ligand. Additionally, in the challenging Suzuki-Miyaura reaction between esters and arylboronic acids, the [Pd(IPr*)Cl(1-tBu-indenyl)] complex exhibited the optimum catalytic activity under very mild reaction conditions.

The synthesis of four novel non-symmetric Ni(ii)-POCOP pincer complexesmeta-functionalized with either benzothiazole or benzimidazole at the central aryl ring is described. All complexes were fully characterised in solution by various analytical techniques and the molecular structures in the solid state of complexes1b,2aand2bwere unequivocally determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. In addition, the Ni(ii)-POCOP pincer complexes were efficiently used as catalysts in the synthesis of diarylketones by cross-coupling reactions of functionalized benzaldehydes and boronic acid derivatives under relatively mild conditions. An important aspect of this transformation is the dependence on the steric properties of the donor groups (OPR2) of the pincer ligands, the more active compounds having the phosphinitos bearing isopropyl groups (1aand2a) than those containingtert-butyl substituents (1band2b).

In this study, 2,3-dicyanopyrazino phenanthrene (DCPP), a commodity chemical that can be prepared at an industrial scale, was used as a photocatalyst in lieu of Ru or Ir complexes in C-X (X = C, N, and O) bond-forming reactions under visible-light irradiation. In these reactions, [DCPP]n aggregates were formed in situ through physical π-πstacking of DCPP monomers in organic solvents. These aggregates exhibited excellent photo- and electrochemical properties, including a visible light response (430 nm), long excited-state lifetime (19.3 μs), high excited-state reduction potential (Ered([DCPP]n*/[DCPP]n·-) = +2.10 V vs SCE), and good reduction stability. The applications of [DCPP]n aggregates as a versatile visible-light photocatalyst were demonstrated in decarboxylative C-C cross-coupling, amidation, and esterification reactions.

Solar-driven carbonylation with CO2 replacing toxic CO as a C1 source is of considerable interest; however it remains a great challenge due to the inert CO2 molecule. Herein, we integrate cobalt single-site and ultrafine CuPd nanocluster catalysts into a
