We have synthesized and characterized new gold-N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes derived from the deprotonation of mineral acids. The use of sulfuric acid was a particularly interesting case. These complexes were tested in known gold-catalyzed reactions, such as the hydration of alkynes and the Meyer–Schuster rearrangement. They proved to be highly efficient in both reactions.

, (2021/02/27)
A variety of chalcones were synthesized in good yields by the activated charcoal-mediated aldol reactions between benzaldehydes and acetophenones catalyzed by NaOH in water. 2,6-Bis((E)-benzylidene)cyclohexan-1-ones were prepared by the aldol reactions between benzaldehydes and cyclohexanone. Activated charcoal could be recycled five times without the significant decrease of yields.

Furanyl-1,2,3-triazole gold(I) was designed, synthesized and characterized by X-ray crystallography, and was found to exhibit high catalytic activity for the synthesis of enones in good to high yields through a propargylic ester rearrangement and subsequent hydration. Notably, excellent E/Z selectivity was observed in these transformations. This catalyst was also effective in catalyzing the rearrangement of propargylic alcohols and hydration of alkynes. Compared to triazole acetyl gold(III) and other gold complexes, the furanyl-1,2,3-triazole gold(I) is able to promote these transformations smoothly at a low temperature with the E isomer of enones as the only product.

A tunable strategy to prepare α,β-unsaturated esters and α,β-unsaturated-γ-keto esters in good to excellent yields was developed through copper-catalyzed oxidative coupling of phosphorus ylides with alkenyl boronic acids under mild conditions. The reaction without water afforded α,β-unsaturated esters, ketones, and amides while α,β-unsaturated-γ-keto esters, 1,4-α,β-unsaturated diketones and α,β-unsaturated-γ-keto amides were obtained when using 5.0 equiv. of water. H2O18 labeling experiments showed that water played an important role in the formation of α,β-unsaturated-γ-keto esters. A plausible formation mechanism for α,β-unsaturated esters and α,β-unsaturated-γ-keto esters was proposed based on mechanistic studies. Phosphonium salts could also be used directly as coupling partners instead of phosphorus ylides. The reaction exhibited a broad substrate scope, good functional group tolerance, good regioselectivity, and diverse coupling products. (Figure presented.).
Metal- and Acid-Free Methyl Triflate Catalyzed Meyer-Schuster Rearrangement

, p. 3149 - 3156 (2017/07/12)
A novel metal- and acid-free preparation of synthetically useful α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds from propargyl alcohols has been realized. This Meyer-Schuster rearrangement process is effectively catalyzed by methyl triflate (20 mol%) to prepare a broad scope of conjugated E -enals and E -enones generally in good to excellent yields (up to 90%). This reaction procedure operates under mild conditions (70 °C), in air, with short reaction times (1 h). Moreover, a carbocation intermediate trapped by the solvent 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol was isolated during this transformation.

Molnár, Katalin,Takács, László,Kádár, Mihály,Faigl, Ferenc,Kardos, Zsuzsanna
, p. 1214 - 1224 (2017/07/06)
In the present work, we determined and evaluated the stereochemical outcome of the Horner–Wadsworth–Emmons (HWE) reaction of 2-oxoalkylphosphonates with different ester functions (bis(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl), 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl methyl, dimethyl) and side chains (aliphatic, aromatic) with three different aldehydes (benzaldehyde, THP- and PPB-protected Corey aldehydes) under two reaction conditions. The “trans” protocol is generally used in the E-selective HWE reactions, while “cis” protocol promotes the Z-selectivity.

, p. 1086 - 1089 (2017/03/02)
A Lewis acid catalyzed direct transformation of propargyl N-hydroxylamines to α,β-unsaturated ketones in the presence of aqueous Zn(II)-salts has been described. This investigation also provides a novel observation for the stoichiometric role of Zn-halides over what is known to date for catalytic processes. A thorough mechanistic study has been established based on the experiment using18O-labeled water in optimized reaction conditions; the incorporation of18O in the desired product was also substantiated by HRMS. This methodology is also a mild, inexpensive, and an efficient approach for this unusual conversion.

, p. 2280 - 2282 (2016/05/10)
A new type triazole acetyl gold(III) was prepared and found to be an effective catalyst in Meyer-Schuster rearrangement of propargyl alcohols. The reactions proceeded well under much milder conditions to afford enones bearing a wide range of functional groups, thereby opening a new avenue for gold(III) catalysis. In addition, TriaAuCl2 catalyst was also effective on promotion of a-haloenones synthesis.

By carefully screening the organoselenium pre-catalysts and optimizing the reaction conditions, simple dibenzyl diselenide was found to be the best pre-catalyst for Baeyer-Villiger oxidation of (E)-α,β-unsaturated ketones with the green oxidant hydrogen peroxide at room temperature. The organoselenium catalyst used in this reaction could be recycled and reused several times. This new method was suitable not only for methyl unsaturated ketones, but also for alkyl and aryl unsaturated ketones. Therefore, it provided a direct, mild, practical, highly functional group-tolerant process for the chemoselective preparation of the versatile (E)-vinyl esters from the readily available (E)-α,β-unsaturated ketones. A possible mechanism was also proposed to rationalize the activity of the organoselenium catalyst in the presence of hydrogen peroxide in this Baeyer-Villiger oxidation reaction.
