Reductive Coupling of Acrylates with Ketones and Ketimines by a Nickel-Catalyzed Transfer-Hydrogenative Strategy

Nickel-catalyzed coupling of benzyl acrylates with activated ketones and imines provides γ-butyrolactones and lactams, respectively. The benzyl alcohol byproduct released during the lactonization/lactamization event is relayed to the next cycle where it serves as the reductant for C?C bond formation. This strategy represents a conceptually unique approach to transfer-hydrogenative C?C bond formation, thus providing examples of reductive heterocyclizations where hydrogen embedded within an alcohol leaving group facilitates turnover.
Facile and highly diastereoselective synthesis of 3-aminooxindoles via AgOAc-catalyzed vinylogous Mannich reaction

A novel AgOAc-catalyzed vinylogous Mannich reaction between easily prepared imines 1 derived from isatins and trimethylsilyloxyfuran 2 (TMSOF) was developed. This method provided a facile synthetic route to get access to synthetically useful quaternary 3-aminooxindole in excellent yields (94-99%) and diastereoselectivities (>99:1).
