Selective reduction strategies based on abundant-metal catalysts are very important in the production of chemicals. In this paper, a method for the electrochemical semihydrogenation and semideuteration of alkynes to form Z-alkenes was developed, using a simple nickel foam as catalyst and H3O+ or D3O+ as sources of hydrogen or deuterium. Good yields and excellent stereoselectivities (Z/E up to 20 : 1) were obtained under very mild reaction conditions. The reaction proceeded with terminal and nonterminal alkynes, and also with alkynes containing easily reducible functional groups, such as carbonyl groups, as well as aryl chlorides, bromides, and even iodides. The nickel-foam electrocatalyst could be recycled up to 14 times without any change in its catalytic properties.

Photocatalyst-free visible-light-mediated reactions, based on the presence of a visible-light-absorbing functional group in the starting material itself in order to exclude the often costly, hazardous, degradable and difficult to remove or recover photoredox catalysts, have been gaining momentum recently. We have employed this approach to develop a denitrative photocatalyst-free visible-light-mediated protocol for the arylation/sulfonylation of β-nitrostyrenes employing arylazo sulfones (bench-stable photolabile compounds) in a switchable solvent-controlled manner. Arylazo sulfones served as the aryl and sulfonyl radical precursors under blue LED irradiation for the synthesis oftrans-stilbenes and (E)-vinyl sulfones in CH3CN and dioxane/H2O 2?:?1, respectively. The absence of any metal, photocatalyst and additive; excellent selectivity (E-stereochemistry) and solvent-switchability; and the use of visible light and ambient temperature are the prime assets of the developed method. Moreover, we report the first photocatalyst-free visible light-driven route to synthesize stilbenes and vinyl sulfones from readily available β-nitrostyrenes.

The development of new catalytic processes based on abundantly available starting materials by cheap metals is always a fascinating task and marks an important transition in the chemical industry. Herein, a nickel-catalyzed acceptorless dehydrogenative coupling of alcohols with nitriles followed by decyanation of nitriles to access diversely substituted olefins is reported. This unprecedented C=C bond-forming methodology takes place in a tandem manner with the formation of formamide as a sole byproduct. The significant advantages of this strategy are the low-cost nickel catalyst, good functional group compatibility (ether, thioether, halo, cyano, ester, amino, N/O/S heterocycles; 43 examples), synthetic convenience, and high reaction selectivity and efficiency.

The Matsuda-Heck reaction, usually performed with palladium catalysts, can be carried out under transition-metal-free conditions in the presence of a KOtBu/DMF couple. This system allows the selective and direct synthesis of stilbenes from aryldiazonium salts under mild temperature (20 °C). Mechanistic studies suggest a radical pathway in which the DMF acts as the initiator of the overall process.

Readily accessible tetraorganoborate salts undergo selective coupling reactions under blue light irradiation in the presence of catalytic amounts of transition-metal-free acridinium photocatalysts to furnish unsymmetrical biaryls, heterobiaryls and arylated olefins. This represents an interesting conceptual approach to forge C?C bonds between aryl, heteroaryl and alkenyl groups under smooth photochemical conditions. Computational studies were conducted to investigate the mechanism of the transformation.

Heterogeneous chemoselective or stereoselective C-C coupling reactions remain extremely challenging in traditional organic synthesis. Here, we constructed a AuPd@N-rich carbon nitride (NRCN) photocatalyst through simple ammonia solution heat treatment of carbon nitride and then AuPd NP loading. AuPd@NRCN exhibited extraordinary light color promoted catalytic performance in C-C bond formation under visible light in air. Surprisingly, both high chemoselectivity to unsymmetrical Ullmann biaryl products and satisfactory stereoselectivity to Z-type Heck reaction products could be achieved by changing the light source color. Various substrates exhibited great potential for the economical synthesis of unsymmetrical biaryl products and Z-type olefins. Efficient visible light promoted C-I bond activation accompanied with improved photocatalytic coupling reaction efficiency over AuPd@NRCN was verified firstly by in situ DRIFTS. Considering that the Ullmann cross-coupling reaction is a multi-photon reaction, the improved photocatalytic performance in the Ullmann cross-coupling reaction using a combination of light sources with different colors might be due to the activation of different substrates and/or steps requiring different energies, and the combination of the two energy sources was beneficial for improving the activation efficiency of different substrates and/or steps. The activation of iodobenzene and styrene in the Heck reaction with light was also beneficial to the formation of the stilbene product. The light color promoted chemoselectivity and stereoselectivity are expected to have profound impact on organic synthetic methodology improvement. This journal is

Four Ru(II)-NC complexes were tested as catalysts for semihydrogenation of internal alkynes to (E)-alkenes with ethanol, and the complex {(C5H4N)(C6H4)}RuCl(CO)(PPh3)2 (1a) showed the highest activity. The reactions proceeded well with 1 mol % catalyst loading and 0.1 equiv of t-BuONa at 110 °C for 1 h, and 32 alkenes were synthesized with excellent E:Z selectivity. This is the first ruthenium-catalyzed semihydrogenation of internal alkynes to (E)-alkenes using ethanol as the hydrogen donor.

Herein, the first example of visible-light-driven, cobalt-catalyzed transfer semihydrogenation of alkynes to alkenes is reported. It is carried out by using Ir[dF(CF3)ppy]2(dtbbpy)]PF6 as photosensitizer, CoBr2/n-Bu3P as proton-reducing catalyst, and i-Pr2NEt/AcOH as the hydrogen source. Under the established catalytic system, the semihydrogenation proceeds with Z as the major selectivity and with inhibition of over-reduction. Under mild reaction conditions, both internal and terminal alkynes, as well as reducible functional groups such as halogen, cyano, and ester, are tolerated. Preliminary mechanistic studies revealed the dual role of the photosensitizer in initiating the reaction via a single-electron transfer process and controlling the stereoselectivity via an energy transfer process.

The potential safety hazards associated with the Mizoroki-Heck cross-coupling of bromobenzenes with styrenes were evaluated. The heat output from the reaction in various solvents was comparable in a variety of solvents; however, the rate of reaction was significantly faster in the presence of water. Thermal stability evaluation of the postreaction mixtures in DMSO and 3:1 DMSO/water by differential scanning calorimetry indicated that the onset temperatures of thermal decomposition were significantly lower than that of neat DMSO. Evaluation of the substrate scope revealed that the substitution pattern on the bromobenzene did not affect the heat output. The reaction rate of electron-deficient bromobenzenes was slower than that of the electron-rich bromobenzenes. In general, substituted styrenes afforded similar magnitudes of exotherms; however, the reaction rate of bromobenzene with 2-methylstyrene was significantly slower than the other studied styrenes. The predicted heat of reaction using the density functional theory method, B3LYP, was in good agreement with the experimental data. Such excellent agreement suggests that this calculation method can be used as a preliminary tool to predict heat of reaction and avoid exothermic reaction conditions. In many of the studied cases, the maximum temperature of a synthesis reaction was considerably higher than the solvent boiling point and thermal decomposition onset temperatures when the reaction was performed in DMSO or 3:1 DMSO/water. It is crucial to understand the thermal stability of the reaction mixture to design the process accordingly and ensure the reaction temperature is maintained below the onset temperature of decomposition to avoid potential runaway reactions.

The carbon–carbon cross coupling reactions through transition-metal-catalyzed processes has been significantly developed for their important synthetic applications. In this research, we have shown that NiFe2O4@TASDA-Pd(0) is a highly active, novel and reusable catalyst with excellent performance for the Mizoroki–Heck coupling reaction of several types of iodo, bromo, and even aryl chlorides in DMF under ultrasound irradiation. The novel palladium catalyst prepared and characterized by using FT-IR spectrum, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA) and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). The catalyst can be recovered and recycled several times without marked loss of activity.
