Palladium-Catalyzed Carbene Coupling Reactions of Cyclobutanone N-Sulfonylhydrazones

Described herein are the palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions of cyclobutanone-derived N-sulfonylhydrazones with aryl or benzyl halides, suggesting that the metal carbene process and β-hydride elimination can smoothly occur in strained ring system

Copper-Catalyzed Sulfonylation of Cyclobutanone Oxime Esters with Sulfonyl Hydrazides

A copper-catalyzed radical cross-coupling of cyclobutanone oxime esters with sulfonyl hydrazides has been developed. The copper-based catalytic system proved crucial for cleavage of the C-C bond of cyclobutanone oximes and for selective C-S bond-formation involving persistent sulfonyl-metal radical intermediates. This protocol is distinguished by the low-cost catalytic system, which does not require ligand, base, or toxic cyanide salt, and by the use of readily accessible starting materials, as well as broad substrate scope, providing an efficient approach to various diversely substituted cyano-containing sulfones.

Metal-free chalcogenation of cycloketone oxime esters with dichalcogenides

We report the metal-free chalcogenation of cycloketone oxime esters with dichalcogenides via a radical process. Because of the metal-free condition and use of readily accessible dichalcogenides, this method is an effective and green strategy for the synthesis of chalcogen-substituted butyronitrile.

Visible-Light-Promoted Selenocyanation of Cyclobutanone Oxime Esters Using Potassium Selenocyanate

We report the visible-light-promoted selenocyanation of cyclobutanone oxime esters using potassium selenocyanate in the presence of a fac-Ir(ppy)3 catalyst for the first time. Because of the mild conditions employed and use of readily accessible potassium selenocyanate, this method is an effective and green strategy for the synthesis of cyano and selenocyano bifunctional substituted alkanes.

Lewis Acid Catalyzed Ring-Opening Reaction of Cyclobutanones towards Conjugated Enones

An unprecedented Fe-catalyzed ring-opening reaction of simple cyclobutanones is developed, which provides access to conjugated enones with good functional group tolerance in high yields under mild conditions. The product derivatization and gram-scale expe

Nickel-Catalyzed Favorskii-Type Rearrangement of Cyclobutanone Oxime Esters to Cyclopropanecarbonitriles

A nickel-catalyzed base-promoted rearrangement of cyclobutanone oxime esters to cyclopropanecarbonitriles was developed. The ring opening of cyclobutanone oxime esters occurs at the sterically less hindered side. A base-promoted nickelacyclobutane intermediate, formed in situ, is assumed to be involved in the formation of the product.

Visible-Light Photoredox-Catalyzed Dicarbofunctionalization of Styrenes with Oxime Esters and CO2: Multicomponent Reactions toward Cyanocarboxylic Acids and γ-Keto Acids

A photoredox-catalyzed dicarbofunctionalization of styrenes with oxime esters and CO2 has been achieved. Notably, a series of four-, five-, or six-membered cyclic ketone oximes worked well to furnish a wide range of ε-, ζ-, and η-cyanocarboxylic acids in good yields. Furthermore, a series of γ-keto acids also could be obtained by employing acyclic ketone oxime esters as the carbonyl radical precursor. It provides convergent access to diverse biologically important cyanocarboxylic and γ-keto acids.

Absence of Intermediates in the BINOL-Derived Mg(II)/Phosphate-Catalyzed Desymmetrizative Ring Expansion of 1-Vinylcyclobutanols

The catalyzed desymmetrizative ring expansion of alkenylcyclobutanols promoted by halofunctionalization of the alkene moiety with N-bromosuccinimide has been experimentally and computationally studied. The reaction yields highly enantioenriched cyclopenta

Metal-Free sp3 C-SCF3 Coupling Reactions between Cycloketone Oxime Esters and S-trifluoromethyl 4-Methylbenzenesulfonothioate

A novel sp3 C-SCF3 coupling reaction between cycloketone oxime esters and S-trifluoromethyl 4-methylbenzenesulfonothioate was achieved. Ethanol was found to facilitate this transformation by trapping the sulfonyl cation. The metal-free and photocatalyst-free reaction conditions, as well as the broad substrate scope, make this a green protocol for the synthesis of SCF3-substituted nitriles.

Photoinduced, Copper-Catalyzed Three-Component Annulation of gem-Dialkylthio Enynes

Photoinduced, copper-catalyzed three-component radical annulation of gem-dialkylthio enynes, cyclobutanone oxime esters, and boronic acids was achieved, forming highly functionalized aryl thienyl sulfides with both good chemo- and diastereoselectivities. The reaction proceeds through a domino sequence involving cyanoalkyl radical-mediated intramolecular annulation of gem-dialkylthio enyne, alkenyl radical-promoted C(sp3)-S bond cleavage, and sulfur-centered radical-trapped Cu(II)-facilitated C-S cross-coupling. The protocol features simultaneous establishment of cyanoalkyl, cyclopentanone, and thiophene moieties and a thioether C-S bond in one pot with broad substrate scopes and versatile functional group tolerance under mild conditions.
