A method of direct C-4 selective alkylation of pyridines under visible light irradiation at room temperature has been reported, using simple maleate-derived pyridinium salts as pyridine precursors and the readily available carboxylic acid-derived N-(acyloxy)phthalimides as alkyl radical precursors, affording good to excellent yields without using stoichiometric oxidants and acids. A broad range of primary, secondary, and tertiary carboxylates can be used as alkylation reagents. Oxidant and acid-sensitive functional groups can be tolerated well. This journal is
Decarboxylative Radical Addition to Methylideneoxazolidinones for Stereocontrolled Synthesis of Selectively Protected Diamino Diacids

Syntheses of stereochemically pure and selectively protected diamino diacids can be achieved by redox decarboxylation of distal N-hydroxyphthalimide esters of protected aspartic, glutamic or α-aminoadipic acids via radical addition to methylideneoxazolidinones. The products are useful for solid-supported syntheses of robust bioactive carbocyclic peptide analogs. Yields of reactive primary radical addition are superior to those of more stabilized radicals, and the reaction fails if the alkylideneoxazolidinone has a methyl substituent on its terminus (i.e., 13a/13b).

The addition of alkyl fragments to aliphatic aldehydes is a highly desirable transformation for fragment couplings, yet existing methods come with operational challenges related to the basicity and instability of the nucleophilic reagents commonly employed. We report herein that nickel catalysis using a readily available bioxazoline (BiOx) ligand can catalyze the reductive coupling of redox-active esters with aliphatic aldehydes using zinc metal as the reducing agent to deliver silyl-protected secondary alcohols. This protocol is operationally simple, proceeds under mild conditions, and tolerates a variety of functional groups. Initial mechanistic studies suggest a radical chain pathway. Additionally, alkyl tosylates and epoxides are suitable alkyl precursors to this transformation providing a versatile suite of catalytic reactions for the functionalization of aliphatic aldehydes.
