A method was developed for ketone synthesis via a photoredox-assisted reductive acyl cross-coupling (PARAC) using a nickel/photoredox dual-catalyzed cross-electrophile coupling of two different carboxylic acid esters. A variety of aryl, 1°, 2°, 3°-alkyl 2-pyridyl esters can act as acyl electrophiles while N-(acyloxy)phthalimides (NHPI esters) act as 1°, 2°, 3°-radical precursors. Our PARAC strategy provides an alternative and reliable way to synthesize various sterically congested 3°-3°, 3°-2°, and aryl-3° ketones under mild and highly unified conditions, which have been otherwise difficult to access. The combined experimental and computational studies identified a Ni0/NiI/NiIII pathway for ketone formation.

Upon photoinitiated electron transfer, charge recombination limits the quantum yield of photoredox reactions for which the rates for the forward reaction and back electron transfer are competitive. Taking inspiration from a proton-coupled electron transfe

A mild organophotoredox synthetic protocol for forming a Csp3-S/Se bond by reacting widespread redox-active esters with thio/selenosulfonates has been developed. The power of the synthetic manifold is fueled by an unprecedented broad substrate scope and wide functional group tolerance.

A novel and efficient protocol for chemoselective deacetylation under ambient conditions was developed using catalytic KMnO4. The stoichiometric use of KMnO4 highlighted the dual role of a heterogeneous oxidant enabling direct access to aromatic aldehydes in one-pot sequential deacetylation-oxidation. The reaction employed an alternative solvent system and allowed the clean transformation of benzyl acetate to sensitive aldehyde in a single step while preventing over-oxidation to acids. Use of inexpensive and readily accessible KMnO4 as an environmentally benign reagent and the ease of the reaction operation were particularly attractive, and enabled the controlled oxidation and facile cleavage of acetate in a preceding step.

An efficient photocatalytic decarboxylative 3-position alkylation of coumarins by using alkyl N-hydroxyphthalimide esters as alkylation reagents has been developed. A variety of NHP esters derived from aliphatic carboxylic acids (primary, secondary, and tertiary) has been proved to be tolerated for this decarboxylation process, affording a broad scope of 3-alkylated coumarin derivatives in moderate to excellent yields. This protocol was highlighted by its mild conditions, readily available starting materials, operational simplicity, and wide functional group tolerance.

Synthesis of the C?C bonds of ketones relies upon one high-availability reagent (carboxylic acids) and one low-availability reagent (organometallic reagents or alkyl iodides). We demonstrate here a ketone synthesis that couples two different carboxylic acid esters, N-hydroxyphthalimide esters and S-2-pyridyl thioesters, to form aryl alkyl and dialkyl ketones in high yields. The keys to this approach are the use of a nickel catalyst with an electron-poor bipyridine or terpyridine ligand, a THF/DMA mixed solvent system, and ZnCl2 to enhance the reactivity of the NHP ester. The resulting reaction can be used to form ketones that have previously been difficult to access, such as hindered tertiary/tertiary ketones with strained rings and ketones with α-heteroatoms. The conditions can be employed in the coupling of complex fragments, including a 20-mer peptide fragment analog of Exendin(9–39) on solid support.

An improved, one-pot Minisci reaction has been developed using visible light, an organic photocatalyst, and carboxylic acids as radical precursors via the intermediacy of in situ-generated N-(acyloxy)phthalimides. The conditions employed are mild, demonstrate a high degree of functional group tolerance, and do not require a large excess of the carboxylic acid reactant. As a result, this reaction can be applied to drug-like scaffolds and molecules with sensitive functional groups, enabling late-stage functionalization, which is of high interest to medicinal chemistry.

A copper nitrate-catalyzed cross-dehydrogenative coupling reaction between N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHPI) and ethers/alkanes has been described. The reaction is accomplished smoothly by using simple and green molecular oxygen as the oxidant, providing an alternative for the efficient synthesis of N-alkoxyphthalimides. In addition, it was found that when tert-butyl ethers were used as substrates, unexpected N-hydroxyimide ester derivatives were obtained in moderate to excellent yields. To further understand this unusual transformation, control experiments were performed and a plausible mechanism was proposed.
