Visible-Light-Driven Reductive Carboarylation of Styrenes with CO2 and Aryl Halides

The first example of visible-light-driven reductive carboarylation of styrenes with CO2 and aryl halides in a regioselective manner has been achieved. A broad range of aryl iodides and bromides were compatible with this reaction. Moreover, pyridyl halides, alkyl halides, and even aryl chlorides were also viable with this method. These findings may stimulate the exploration of novel visible-light-driven Meerwein arylation-addition reactions with user-friendly aryl halides as the radical sources and the photocatalytic utilization of CO2

Reactions of chlorine substituted (E)-2,3-diphenylpropenoic acids over cinchonidine-modified Pd: Enantioselective hydrogenation versus hydrodechlorination

The effect of the chlorine position on the C-Cl bond hydrogenolysis and the enantioselective hydrogenation of Cl substituted (E)-2,3-diphenylpropenoic acid derivatives has been studied over cinchonidine-modified Pd/Al2O 3. In contrast to the fast hydrodechlorination of the β-phenyl-para-Cl substituted acids the Cl on the α-phenyl ring was barely hydrogenolized. These observations were interpreted by the different arrangements of the two phenyl rings on the surface, with the α- and β-phenyl rings adsorbed tilted and parallel, respectively. The results confirmed the beneficial effect of the α-phenyl-ortho-substituents on the chiral discrimination, thus the 2,3-diphenylpropionic acids substituted by Cl on the α-phenyl ring could be prepared in good yields and optical purities. The conclusions were used for the rational design of an acid, i.e. (E)-2-(2-methoxyphenyl)-3-(3,4-difluorophenyl)propenoic acid, which afforded the best optical purity (ee up to 95% at 295 K) described until now in this heterogeneous system.
