Herein, a light-driven, atom-economical process that provides access to enantiomerically enriched substituted chiral 1-pyrroline derivatives is introduced. The strategy involves the distal functionalization of acyl heterocycles through a hydrogen-atom transfer (HAT) process and the use of tailor-made ketimines as reliable electrophilic partners. This transformation is translated into an enantiomerically controlled radical/polar cascade reaction in which water is produced as the sole by-product and stereoselectivity is dictated by coordination to a chiral-at-rhodium catalyst.

A practical method for the synthesis of 2H-imidazoles via a [2+3] annulation of N-H imines with vinyl azides using a copper catalyst is developed. In this conversion, environmentally friendly oxygen is used as the sole oxidant and N2 and H2O are the only by-products. The catalytic transformation, operating under mild conditions, is operationally simple and is considered as a readily available catalytic system having good substrate and functional compatibility with high atom-efficiency without the need for additional ligands or additives.

An application of H-bonding interactions for directing the α-C-H oxidation of amines to amides and amino-ketones catalyzed by an organic photocatalyst is reported. The high efficiency of this method is demonstrated by the aerobic oxidation of pyrrolidines, diarylamines and benzylamines bearing urea groups with high yields and a wide substrate scope.
Introducing Glycerol as a Sustainable Solvent to Organolithium Chemistry: Ultrafast Chemoselective Addition of Aryllithium Reagents to Nitriles under Air and at Ambient Temperature

Edging closer towards developing air and moisture compatible polar organometallic chemistry, the chemoselective and ultrafast addition of a range of aryllithium reagents to nitriles has been accomplished by using glycerol as a solvent, at ambient temperature in the presence of air, establishing a novel sustainable access to aromatic ketones. Addition reactions occur heterogeneously (“on glycerol conditions”), where the lack of solubility of the nitriles in glycerol and the ability of the latter to form strong intermolecular hydrogen bonds seem key to favouring nucleophilic addition over competitive hydrolysis. Remarkably, PhLi exhibits a greater resistance to hydrolysis working “on glycerol” conditions than “on water”. Introducing glycerol as a new solvent in organolithium chemistry unlocks a myriad of opportunities for developing more sustainable, air and moisture tolerant main-group-metal-mediated organic synthesis.
Synthesis of substituted benzhydrylamines

, p. 113 - 115 (2007/10/03)
The synthesis of para di- and monosubstituted benzhydrylamines by addition of Grignard reagents to benzonitriles and subsequent reduction, is evaluated and discussed. The reduction step with sodium borohydride allows simple handling and mild conditions. An optimized synthesis of 4,4'-dimethoxybenzhydrylamine by this method is disclosed.
