A practical, efficient, and mild hydrogenation of levulinic acid (LA) to γ-valerolactone (GVL) under 1 atm H2was realized by single-sited 3D porous self-supported N-heterocyclic carbene iridium catalysts. Quantitative yields and selectivities were achieved at 0.02 mol% catalyst loading, and the catalyst could be reused for 9 runs without obvious loss of selectivity or activity.

In this study, we reported a photo-induced radical borylation of hemiacetal derivatives via C–C bond cleavage. This transformation can be realized under mild conditions with simple reaction settings and irradiation of visible light. A series of substrates, including both cyclic and linear hemiacetal derivatives, were effectively transformed to the borylation product in moderate to good yields. Finally, the mechanism was studied in detail by DFT calculations, suggesting insight of the radical borylation process.

A one-pot γ-lactonization of homopropargyl alcohols via an alkyne deprotonation/boronation/oxidation sequence has been developed. Oxidation of the generated alkynyl boronate affords the corresponding ketene intermediate, which is trapped by the adjacent hydroxy group to furnish the γ-lactone. We have optimized the conditions as well as examined the substrate scope and synthetic applications of this efficient one-pot lactonization.

An efficient stereoselective syntheses of a series of functionalized optically active γ-aryl-γ-butyrolactones is achieved by enzymatic asymmetric reduction of the corresponding sterically demanding γ-keto esters employing wild-type and recombinant alcohol dehydrogenases. The best stereoselectivities for the reduction via hydrogen transfer was obtained with two short chain dehydrogenases (SDRs) of complementary stereospecificity from Aromatoleum aromaticum, namely the Prelog-specific NADH-dependent (S)-1-phenylethanol dehydrogenase [(S)-PED] and the anti-Prelog-specific (R)-1-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-ethanol dehydrogenase [(R)-HPED], respectively.Biotransformations catalyzed by both enzymes, followed by TFA-catalyzed cyclization of the resulting γ-hydroxy esters, furnished the respective (S)- and (R)-configured products with exquisite optical purity (up to >99% ee). The synthetic value was demonstrated on preparative scale for the asymmetric bioreduction of the model compound, methyl 4-oxo-4-phenylbutanoate, affording optically pure (S)-γ-phenyl-γ-butyrolactone (>99% ee) in 67–74% isolated yield at 89–95% conversion depending on the applied scale.

, p. 5078 - 5081 (2019/09/03)
Catalytic ring opening of five- to eight-membered lactones with quinones is achieved through a redox chain mechanism. With low loading of a simple metal triflate Lewis acid catalyst and a chain initiator, C-H bonds of many quinones were efficiently functionalized with carboxylic acid-containing side chains. This method also features 100% atom economy and wide substrate scope. A novel route to the anti-asthma drug Seratrodast was developed. Mechanism study suggests that the redox chain reaction likely undergoes a carbocation intermediate.

An asymmetric hydrogenation of aroylacrylic acids catalyzed by RuPHOX-Ru catalyst has been developed, affording the corresponding chiral γ-lactones in high yields and with up to 93% ee. The methodology has the advantage of utilizing easily accessible substrates and has therefore expand the scope of the resulting chiral γ-lactones. Furthermore, high catalytic efficiency was achieved in that the reduction of both the C[dbnd]C and C[dbnd]O double bonds was achieved in one step. The current work provides an alternative and convenient pathway for the synthesis of a wide range of chiral γ-lactones.

, p. 355 - 360 (2017/02/05)
A series of NHC–iridium coordination polymers have proven to be robust, efficient and recyclable solid molecular catalysts toward the hydrogenation of biomass levulinic acid (LA) to γ-valerolactone. Along with quantitative yields attained at 0.01 mol % catalyst loading under 50 atm of H2, the solid molecular catalyst was readily recovered and reused for 12 runs without obvious loss of the selectivity and activity. Remarkably, up to 1.2×105 TON, an unprecedented value could be achieved in this important transformation. In addition, a number of LA homologues, analogues and derivatives were well tolerated to deliver various intriguing and functional lactones in good to excellent yields, which further confirmed the feasibility of the solid molecular catalysts.
