Insertion reactions of alkenes with diterpenoid chromium aminocarbenes
Woodgate, Paul D.,Sutherland, Hamish S.
, p. 155 - 168 (2001)
Insertion reactions of electron-deficient alkenes with chromium aminocarbenes derived from podocarpic acid generally give aryl ketone products derived from ring opening of an aminocyclopropane and subsequent enamine hydrolysis, the exception being alkenyl sulphones which give products derived from insertion of the carbene into the β-CH bond of the alkene. Increasing steric hindrance due to the substituents on the aminocarbene nitrogen appears to result in higher yields of the insertion products. However, other factors such as stabilisation of the intermediate tetracarbonylaminocarbene may explain why morpholinocarbenes give superior yields of the insertion products. Propenoic acid, propenal or nitropropene give a 13-formyl-substituted diterpenoid. Electron-rich alkenes do not undergo insertion reactions with these aminocarbenes at 110°C.

A novel copper-catalyzed decarboxylative oxyalkylation of alkynyl carboxylic acids with ketones and alkylnitriles via direct C(sp3)-H bond functionalization to construct new C-C bonds and C-O double bonds was developed. This transformation is featured by wide functional group compatibility and the use of readily available reagents, thus affording a general approach to ?-diketones and ?-ketonitriles. A possible mechanism is proposed.
Tert-Butyl Hypofluorite - An Electrophilic tert-Butoxylation Agent

tert-Butyl hypofluorite, t-BuOF, easily synthesized from Z-BuOH and F2, is a unique source of the novel electrophilic tert-butoxylium moiety t-BuO+. It was added to several benzylic double bonds to form vicinal fluoro-tert-butoxide derivatives. Not surprisingly, this bulky reagent is quite sensitive to steric hindrance. The process is electrophilic in nature, but since the reaction is relatively slow (20-60 min) formation of various radical species can take place, forming eventually several distinct byproducts. t-BuOF was also reacted with a number of enols, producing the corresponding α-tert-butoxy ketone derivatives in moderate to good yields. The best results were obtained with benzylic enol derivatives.
