, (2017)
One-pot synthesis of 2-aryltetrahydrofurans was achieved by a coupling reaction between arylmagnesium bromides prepared in situ and tetrahydrofuran under mild conditions. The reaction between ArBr and n-BuLi gave unexpected butylbenzene derivatives in mod

A manganese-catalyzed site- and enantiodifferentiating oxidation of C(sp3)-H bonds in saturated cyclic ethers has been described. The mild and practical method is applicable to a range of tetrahydrofurans, tetrahydropyrans, and medium-sized cyclic ethers with multiple stereocenters and diverse substituent patterns in high efficiency with extremely efficient site- and enantiodiscrimination. Late-stage application in complex biological active molecules was further demonstrated. Mechanistic studies by combined experiments and computations elucidated the reaction mechanism and origins of stereoselectivity. The ability to employ ether substrates as the limiting reagent, together with a broad substrate scope, and a high level of chiral recognition, represent a valuable demonstration of the utility of asymmetric C(sp3)-H oxidation in complex molecule synthesis.

A combination of pentafluorophenylboronic acid and oxalic acid catalyses the dehydrative substitution of benzylic alcohols with a second alcohol to form new C?O bonds. This method has been applied to the intermolecular substitution of benzylic alcohols to form symmetrical ethers, intramolecular cyclisations of diols to form aryl-substituted tetrahydrofuran and tetrahydropyran derivatives, and intermolecular crossed-etherification reactions between two different alcohols. Mechanistic control experiments have identified a potential catalytic intermediate formed between the aryl boronic acid and oxalic acid.

Cyclic ethers have been effectively synthesized via the intramolecular cyclization of diols using trimethyl phosphate and NaH. The present cyclization could proceed at room temperature to produce 5-7 membered cyclic ethers in good to excellent yields. Substrates possessing a chiral secondary hydroxy group were transformed into the corresponding chiral cyclic ethers along with the retention of their stereochemistries.

A trityl ion mediated C-H functionalization of ethers with a wide range of nucleophiles at ambient temperature has been developed. The reaction displays high chemo-selectivity and good functional group tolerance. The protocol also exhibits excellent regio- and diastereoselectivities for the unsymmetric ethers, thus stereoselectively generating highly functionalized disubstituted 2,5-trans tetrahydrofurans (THF), 2,6-trans tetrahydropyrans (THP), 2,6-trans dihydropyrans (DHP), and 1,3-trans isochromans, and highlighting the capacity of the protocol in complex molecule synthesis.

CHoose nickel: The nickel-catalyzed oxidative arylation of C(sp 3)-H bonds has been achieved. Several substituted arylboronic acids and various C(sp3)-H bonds were found to be suitable substrates for this novel transformation, which is likely to proceed through a radical pathway. This method allows the introduction of simple ether derivatives to construct α-arylated ethers. FG=functional group. Copyright
