The first iron-catalyzed asymmetric azidation of benzylic peresters has been reported with trimethylsilyl azide (TMSN3) as the azido source. Hydrocarbon radicals that lack of strong interactions were capable to be enantioselectively azidated. The reaction features good functional group tolerance, high yields, and mild conditions. The chiral benzylic azides can further be used in click reaction, phosphoramidation, and reductive amination, which demonstrate the synthetic values of this reaction.

Electrochemistry grants direct access to reactive intermediates (radicals and ions) in a controlled fashion toward selective organic transformations. This feature has been demonstrated in a variety of alkene functionalization reactions, most of which proceed via an anodic oxidation pathway. In this report, we further expand the scope of electrochemistry to the reductive functionalization of alkenes. In particular, the strategic choice of reagents and reaction conditions enabled a radical-polar crossover pathway wherein two distinct electrophiles can be added across an alkene in a highly chemo- and regioselective fashion. Specifically, we used this strategy in the intermolecular carboformylation, anti-Markovnikov hydroalkylation, and carbocarboxylation of alkenes - reactions with rare precedents in the literature - by means of the electroreductive generation of alkyl radical and carbanion intermediates. These reactions employ readily available starting materials (alkyl halides, alkenes, etc.) and simple, transition-metal-free conditions and display broad substrate scope and good tolerance of functional groups. A uniform protocol can be used to achieve all three transformations by simply altering the reaction medium. This development provides a new avenue for constructing Csp3-Csp3 bonds.

A unique example of Pd-catalyzed decarboxylative dehydrogenation of fully substituted N-acyl allyl enol carbonates is enabled by a new electron deficient phosphinooxazoline (PHOX) ligand. The reaction proceeds from the Z-enol carbonate to provide dehydrogenation products exclusively in high E/Z selectivity, while the E-enol carbonate provides the α-allylation product with only minor dehydrogenation. The reaction proceeds with a broad scope of Z-enol carbonates derived from N-acyl indoles to furnish acyclic formal α,β-unsaturated ester equivalents.

The carboxylation of sp3-hybridized C-H bonds with CO2 is a challenging transformation. Herein, we report a visible-light-mediated carboxylation of benzylic C-H bonds with CO2 into 2-arylpropionic acids under metal-free conditions. Photo-oxidized triisopropylsilanethiol was used as the hydrogen atom transfer catalyst to afford a benzylic radical that accepts an electron from the reduced form of 2,3,4,6-tetra(9H-carbazol-9-yl)-5-(1-phenylethyl)benzonitrile generated in situ. The resulting benzylic carbanion reacts with CO2 to generate the corresponding carboxylic acid after protonation. The reaction proceeded without the addition of any sacrificial electron donor, electron acceptor or stoichiometric additives. Moderate to good yields of the desired products were obtained in a broad substrate scope. Several drugs were successfully synthesized using the novel strategy.

Paragraph 0113; 0196-0198, (2017/08/29)
The invention provides a preparation method of a carboxylic acid compound. The preparation method comprises the following step of taking a lactone component to react with hydrogen in the presence of a compound catalyst to obtain the carboxylic acid compound. The compound catalyst comprises a hydrogenation catalyst and Lewis acid. In the presence of the compound catalyst comprising the hydrogenation catalyst and the Lewis acid, the lactone component is subjected to hydrogenation ring-opening reaction to obtain the carboxylic acid compound. The preparation method has the advantages of moderate reaction conditions and high yield; compared with a traditional method, less byproducts are generated, green and chemical requirements are met and the industrial value is better.

Direct hydrogenolysis of lactone to carboxylic acid (i.e., hydrogenolysis of the Calkoxy-O bond with the carbonyl group untouched) is generally difficult, as the current strategies employing Br?nsted acids as the catalyst usually require harsh conditions such as a high temperature and a high H2 pressure. Herein, we report a developed solvent-free catalytic transformation, in which W(OTf)6 is believed to promote the hydrogenolysis process. This strategy could efficiently hydrogenate lactones to carboxylic acids under extra mild conditions (e.g., a reaction temperature of 2) and showed a broad substrate scope. In addition, the catalytic protocol can be further applied to the hydrogenolysis of polyhydroxyalkanoate, as a renewable polymer, to the corresponding straight-chain carboxylic acids. An extensive mechanistic study was subsequently performed, and the density functional theory calculations revealed a reaction pattern, including the complete cleavage of the C=O bond with the assistance of the W(OTf)6 catalyst. Moreover, the key intermediate created in the mechanism, as an oxonium with an OTf moiety, was successfully detected by electrospray ionization mass spectra. Through a comparison with the Br?nsted acid-catalyzed system, the study confirmed that the existence of the OTf moiety can significantly lower the barriers associated with the rearrangement and elimination processes. Meanwhile, emphasis was placed on the critical role that the anion plays, as well as the fact that the anion effect is directly related to the chemoselectivity.

, p. 53397 - 53401 (2015/01/16)
A novel oxidative rearrangement of malondialdehyde was described. Under the effect of H2O2, malondialdehyde smoothly transferred to carboxylic acid with C-C bond cleavage in good to excellent yields. Mechanistic studies showed that this reaction proceeded via the formation of a 1,2-dioxolane intermediate, followed by concert C-C, O-O, C-H bond cleavage and a hydride shift.
Highly enantioselective direct alkylation of arylacetic acids with chiral lithium amides as traceless auxiliaries
Stivala, Craig E.,Zakarian, Armen
supporting information; experimental part, p. 11936 - 11939 (2011/09/19)
A direct, highly enantioselective alkylation of arylacetic acids via enediolates using a readily available chiral lithium amide as a stereodirecting reagent has been developed. This approach circumvents the traditional attachment and removal of chiral auxiliaries used currently for this type of transformation. The protocol is operationally simple, and the chiral reagent is readily recoverable.
