Microwave-assisted synthesis of hydroxymethyl ketones using azolium-2-carboxylate zwitterions as catalyst precursors
Papadaki, Evanthia,Delaude, Lionel,Magrioti, Victoria
, p. 7295 - 7300 (2017)
Following an initial screening of six common imidazolium, imidazolinium, and dithiolium salts in the presence of a base, 1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazol-2-ylidene (IDip) and 1,3-dimesitylimidazolin-2-ylidene (SIMes) were identified as promising organocatalysts for the microwave-assisted synthesis of hydroxymethyl ketones from aldehydes and paraformaldehyde. The azolium-2-carboxylate zwitterions IDip·CO2 and SIMes·CO2 were then tested as single-component N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) precursors in the hydroxymethylation of heptanal and benzaldehyde. The latter adduct was an efficient precatalyst for the two reactions. It was successfully applied to a broad range of aliphatic and aromatic substrates (14 examples, 10–97% yields).

N-Heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) have been widely used in organometallic chemistry as ligands, as well as standalone organocatalysts in various reactions, mostly using aromatic aldehydes as substrates. We have previously demonstrated the efficiency of azolium-2-carboxylate zwitterions in the hydroxymethylation of aldehydes, especially aliphatic aldehydes, under microwave irradiation. In the present work, we report a series of pentafluorobenzene-based NHC adducts and their efficiency in the hydroxymethylation and self-condensation of aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes using microwave irradiation. The free carbenes are released under the reaction conditions and 1,3-dimesityl-2-(perfluorophenyl)imidazolidine and 1,3-bis(2,6-dimethylphenyl)-2-(perfluorophenyl)imidazolidine proved to be the most potent precatalysts.
Cu-catalyzed synthesis of tetrasubstituted 2,3-allenols through decarboxylative silylation of alkyne-substituted cyclic carbonates
Guo, Kun,Kleij, Arjan W.
, p. 3942 - 3945 (2020/06/08)
An efficient and mild Cu-catalyzed protocol has been developed for the decarboxylative silylation of alkyne-functionalized cyclic carbonate substrates affording 2,3-allenols featuring four different substituents. This practical methodology gives access to a wide scope of tetrasubstituted functionalized allenes in excellent yields.
Dual Role of H2O2 in Palladium-Catalyzed Dioxygenation of Terminal Alkenes

supporting information, p. 3354 - 3357 (2017/07/13)
A palladium-catalyzed, environmentally friendly dioxygenation reaction of simple alkenes has been developed that enabled rapid assembly of valuable α-hydroxy ketones with high atom economy. Notably, control experiments and 18O isotope-labeling experiments established that H2O2 played a dominant dual role in this transformation.
Ruthenium(0) Catalyzed Endiyne-α-Ketol [4 + 2] Cycloaddition: Convergent Assembly of Type II Polyketide Substructures via C-C Bond Forming Transfer Hydrogenation

Upon exposure of 3,4-benzannulated 1,5-diynes (benzo-endiynes) to α-ketols (α-hydroxyketones) in the presence of Ru(0) catalysts derived from Ru3(CO)12 and RuPhos or CyJohnPhos, successive redox-triggered C-C coupling occurs to gener
Regio- and enantio-selective oxidation of diols by Candida parapsilosis ATCC 7330
Sivakumari, Thakkellapati,Chadha, Anju
, p. 60526 - 60533 (2015/02/19)
Selectivity between primary and secondary alcohols was observed in oxidation using whole cells of Candida parapsilosis ATCC 7330, where the secondary alcohol was preferentially oxidized. In racemic sec alcohols, the 'R' enantiomer was selectively oxidized to the corresponding keto alcohol (yield = 18-54%) leaving the 'S' diol (yield = 31-69% and enantiomeric excess from 14% to >99%). A biphasic system consisting of isooctane-water (48 : 2 v/v) was used as a medium for biotransformation at 25 °C. This is the first report of the regio- and enantio-selective oxidation of diols using C. parapsilosis ATCC 7330.
