A Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction of α-chloroacetates or α-chloroacetamides with arylboronic acids is made possible by visible-light irradiation. This reaction provides a useful method for the synthesis of α-arylacetates and α-arylacetamides from chlorides under mild reaction conditions. An indole-3-acetic acid derivative that is the key intermediate of the plant hormone auxin can be synthesized from 1-Boc-indole in two steps by combining an iridium-catalyzed C-H borylation and a palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction.
Divergent Synthesis of α-Fluorinated Carbonyl and Carboxyl Derivatives by Double Electrophilic Activation of Amides
Dubart, Amaury,Evano, Gwilherm
, p. 8931 - 8936 (2021/11/17)
A straightforward and divergent entry to α-fluorinated carbonyl and carboxyl derivatives is reported. Upon activation of amides with triflic anhydride and a 2-halo-pyridine and subsequent trapping of the resulting keteniminium ions with nucleophiles followed by a second electrophilic activation with NFSI and final hydrolysis, a range of amides can be transformed to α-fluorinated ketones, esters, and amides under mild conditions. Moreover, this reaction can be performed to yield enantioenriched products with a traceless chiral auxiliary.
Photocatalytic acyl azolium-promoted alkoxycarbonylation of trifluoroborates

, (2021/06/28)
Despite recent advancements in the selective generation and coupling of organic radical species, the alkoxycarbonyl radical remains underexplored relative to other carbon-containing radical species. Drawing inspiration from new strategies for generating acyl radical equivalents utilizing dual N-heterocyclic carbene catalysis and photocatalysis, we have prepared dimethylimidazolium esters that can function as an alkoxycarbonyl radical surrogate under photocatalytic conditions. We demonstrate the synthetic utility of these azolium-based partners through the preparation of esters arising from the coupling of this radical surrogate with an oxidatively generated alkyl radical.
