A highly stereoselective reaction of α,α-difluoro-γ,γ-disubstituted butenals 2 bearing two different substituents at the γ position has been developed with an organocatalytic system of l-proline (30 mol %) and salicylic acid (60 mol %). This novel reactio

A mild and operationally simple copper-catalyzed vinylogous aerobic oxidation of β,γ- and α,β-unsaturated esters is described. This method features good yields, broad substrate scope, excellent chemo- and regioselectivity, and good functional group tolerance. This method is additionally capable of oxidizing β,γ- and α,β-unsaturated aldehydes, ketones, amides, nitriles, and sulfones. Furthermore, the present catalytic system is suitable for bisvinylogous and trisvinylogous oxidation. Tetramethylguanidine (TMG) was found to be crucial in its role as a base, but we also speculate that it serves as a ligand to copper(II) triflate to produce the active copper(II) catalyst. Mechanistic experiments conducted suggest a plausible reaction pathway via an allylcopper(II) species. Finally, the breadth of scope and power of this methodology are demonstrated through its application to complex natural product substrates.

(Figure Presented) Smarty cat: A method for the palladiumcatalyzed γ-arylation of α,β-unsaturated esters via silyl ketene acetals in the absence of fluoride has been developed. The coupling proceeds with electron-rich and electron-poor aryl bromides and vinyl bromides in high yields with a high tolerance for other functional groups.
