Selective introduction of methyl branches into the carbon chains of alcohols can be achieved with low loadings of ruthenium precatalyst [RuH(CO)(BH4)(HN(C2H4PPh2)2)] (Ru-MACHO-BH) using methanol both as methylating reagent and as reaction medium. A wide range of structurally divers alcohols was β-methylated with excellent selectivity (>99 %) in fair to high yields (up to 94 %) under standard conditions, and turnover numbers up to 18,000 could be established. The overall reaction rate of the complex catalytic network appears to be governed by interconnection of the individual subcycles through availability of the reactive intermediates. The synthetic procedure opens pathways to important structural motifs following the Green Chemistry principles.

(Figure presented) The addition of organometallic reagents to carbonyl compounds has become a versatile method for synthesizing tertiary and secondary alcohols via carbon-carbon bond formation. However, due to the lack of good nucleophilicity or the presence of strong basicity of organometallic reagents, the efficient synthesis of tertiary alcohols from ketones has been particularly difficult and, thus, limited. We recently developed highly efficient catalytic alkylation and arylation reactions to ketones with Grignard reagents (RMgX: R = alkyl, aryl; X = Cl, Br, I) using ZnCl2, Me3SiCH 2MgCl, and LiCl, which effectively minimize problematic side reactions. In principle, RMgBr and RMgI are less reactive than RMgCl for the addition to carbonyl compounds. Therefore, this novel method with homogeneous catalytic ZnCl2·Me3SiCH2MgCl·LiCl is quite attractive, since RMgBr and RMgI, which are easily prepared and/or commercially available, like RMgCl, can be applied successfully. As well as ketones and aldehydes, aldimines were effectively applied to this catalysis, and the corresponding secondary amines were obtained in high yield. With regard to mechanistic details concerning β-silyl effect and salt effect, in situ-prepared [R(Me3SiCH2)2Zn] -[Li]+[MgX2]m[LiCl]n (X = Cl/Br/I) is speculated to be a key catalytic reagent to promote the reaction effectively. The simplicity of this reliable ZnCl2·Me 3SiCH2MgCl·LiCl system in the addition of Grignard reagents to carbonyl compounds might be attractive for industrial as well as academic applications.
