We report a remote functionalization strategy, which allows the Z-selective synthesis of silyl enol ethers of (hetero)aromatic and aliphatic ketones via Ni-catalyzed chain walking from a distant olefin site. The positional selectivity is controlled by the directionality of the chain walk and is independent of thermodynamic preferences of the resulting silyl enol ether. Our mechanistic data indicate that a Ni(I) dimer is formed under these conditions, which serves as a catalyst resting state and, upon reaction with an alkyl bromide, is converted to [Ni(II)-H] as an active chain-walking/functionalization catalyst, ultimately generating a stabilized η3-bound Ni(II) enolate as the key selectivity-controlling intermediate.

Ser/Thr protein phosphatases (PPs) regulate a substantial range of cellular processes with protein phosphatases 1 (PP1) and 2 A (PP2A) accounting for over 90 % of the activity within cells. Nevertheless, tools to study PPs are limited as PPs inhibitors, particularly those selective for PP1 inhibition, are relatively scarce. Two examples of PP1-selective inhibitors, which share structural similarities, are tautomycin (TTM) and tautomycetin (TTN). This work describes the development of PP1/PP2A inhibitors that incorporate key structural features of TTM and TTN and are designed to conserve regions known to bind the active site of PP1/PP2A but vary regions that differentially contact the hydrophobic groove of PP1/PP2A. In all 28 TTN analogues were synthetically generated that inhibit PP1/PP2A activity at 50 values were determined for the seven most active analogues, which ranged from 34 to 1500 nM (PP1) and 70 to 6800 nM (PP2A). Four of the seven analogues possessed PP1 selectivity, and one demonstrated eightfold selectivity in the nanomolar range (PP1 IC50=34 nM, PP2A IC50=270 nM). A rationale is given for the observed differences in selectivity.
Chemiluminescence-promoted oxidation of alkyl enol ethers by NHPI under mild conditions and in the dark

The hydroperoxidation of alkyl enol ethers using N-hydroxyphthalimide and molecular oxygen occurred in the absence of catalyst, initiator, or light. The reaction proceeds through a radical mechanism that is initiated by N-hydroxyphthalimide-promoted autoxidation of the enol ether substrate. The resulting dioxetane products decompose in a chemiluminescent reaction that allows for photochemical activation of N-hydroxyphthalimide in the absence of other light sources.

We herein describe the development of a mild and selective catalytic aerobic oxidation process of olefins. This catalytic aerobic oxidation reaction was designed based on experimental and spectroscopic evidence assessing the reduction of atmospheric oxygen using a ferric porphyrin complex and pinacolborane to form a ferric boroperoxo porphyrin complex as an oxidizing species. The ferric boroperoxo porphyrin complex can be utilized as an in-situ generated intermediate in the catalytic aerobic oxidation of alkenes under ambient conditions to form oxidation products that differ from those obtained using previously reported ferric porphyrin catalysis. Moreover, the mild reaction conditions allow chemoselective oxidation to be achieved.

Herein, a new method of iron-catalyzed carbonylative cyclization of γ,δ-unsaturated aromatic oxime esters to functionalized pyrrolines has been developed. By using readily available substrates, 32 examples of functionalized pyrrolines were prepared in moderate to good yields. Notably, examples of reduction and cycloaddition reactions of the obtained product were given as well. This journal is

A method for the generation of free radicals from thiazolinium salts upon photocatalytic reduction is described. The thiazolinium salts are generated by treatment with methyl triflate of 2-mercaptothiazolines, which can be readily obtained from alkyl bromides and tosylates via a nucleophilic substitution reaction or by hydrothiolation of alkenes. Silyl enol ethers were used to trap the radicals, furnishing ketones after successive single-electron oxidation and elimination of the silyl cation.
Iminyl Radicals by Reductive Cleavage of N-O Bond in Oxime Ether Promoted by SmI2: A Straightforward Synthesis of Five-Membered Cyclic Imines

A new generation method of N-centered radicals from the reductive cleavage of the N-O bond in oxime ether promoted by SmI2 is reported for the first time. The in-situ-generated N-centered radicals underwent intramolecular cyclization to afford five-membered cyclic imines in two manners: N-centered radical addition and N-centered anion nucleophilic substitution. From a synthetic point of view, an efficient synthetic method of five-membered cyclic imines was developed. A mechanism of the transformation was proposed.
Iron-Catalysed Remote C(sp3)?H Azidation of O-Acyl Oximes and N-Acyloxy Imidates Enabled by 1,5-Hydrogen Atom Transfer of Iminyl and Imidate Radicals: Synthesis of γ-Azido Ketones and β-Azido Alcohols

In the presence of a catalytic amount of iron(III) acetylacetonate [Fe(acac)3], the reaction of structurally diverse ketoxime esters with trimethylsilyl azide (TMSN3) afforded γ-azido ketones in good to excellent yields. This unprecedented distal γ-C(sp3)?H bond azidation reaction went through a sequence of reductive generation of an iminyl radical, 1,5-hydrogen atom transfer (1,5-HAT) and iron-mediated redox azido transfer to the translocated carbon radical. TMSN3 served not only as a nitrogen source to functionalise the unactivated C(sp3)?H bond, but also as a reductant to generate the catalytically active FeII species in situ. Based on the same principle, a novel β-C(sp3)?H functionalisation of alcohols via N-acyloxy imidates was subsequently realised, leading, after hydrolysis of the resulting ester, to β-azido alcohols, which are important building blocks in organic and medicinal chemistry.

Most photoredox catalysts in current use are precious metal complexes or synthetically elaborate organic dyes, the cost of which can impede their application for large-scale industrial processes. We found that a combination of triphenylphosphine and sodium iodide under 456-nanometer irradiation by blue light–emitting diodes can catalyze the alkylation of silyl enol ethers by decarboxylative coupling with redox-active esters in the absence of transition metals. Deaminative alkylation using Katritzky’s N-alkylpyridinium salts and trifluoromethylation using Togni’s reagent are also demonstrated. Moreover, the phosphine/iodide-based photoredox system catalyzes Minisci-type alkylation of N-heterocycles and can operate in tandem with chiral phosphoric acids to achieve high enantioselectivity in this reaction.

Three efficient methods for five-membered ring carbocycle synthesis have been developed from simple starting materials using samarium(II) reagents. A Reformatsky aldol reaction proceeded efficiently with samarium(II) iodide using lithium bromide as an additive. A new intramolecular alkylation of a samarium enolate was realized with a pendant sulfonate ester leaving group. Pinacol cyclization of a simple diketone was also demonstrated giving a diol product in high stereoselectivity. A promising lead result has been established demonstrating enantioselectivity in a chiral ligand controlled Reformatsky aldol reaction.
