Cross-electrophile coupling reactions of two Csp3-X bonds remain challenging. Herein we report an intramolecular nickel-catalyzed cross-electrophile coupling reaction of 1,3-diol derivatives. Notably, this transformation is utilized to synthesize a range of mono- and 1,2-disubstituted alkylcyclopropanes, including those derived from terpenes, steroids, and aldol products. Additionally, enantioenriched cyclopropanes are synthesized from the products of proline-catalyzed and Evans aldol reactions. A procedure for direct transformation of 1,3-diols to cyclopropanes is also described. Calculations and experimental data are consistent with a nickel-catalyzed mechanism that begins with stereoablative oxidative addition at the secondary center.

Paragraph 0049, (2020/05/29)
The invention discloses a method for preparing organic carboxylic ester by combined catalysis of an aryl bidentate phosphine ligand. The method comprises the following steps: under the action of a palladium compound/aryl bidentate phosphine ligand/acidic additive combined catalyst, carrying out a hydrogen esterification reaction on terminal olefin, carbon monoxide and alcohol so as to generate theorganic carboxylic ester with one more carbon than olefin. According to the invention, by adoption of the palladium compound/aryl bidentate phosphine ligand/acidic additive combined catalyst, good catalytic activity and selectivity for the hydrogen esterification reaction of the olefin are achieved, and olefin carbonylation to synthesize organic carboxylic ester can be efficiently catalyzed. Thearyl bidentate phosphine ligand has a rigid skeleton structure of a rigid ligand and the flexibility of a flexible ligand, so the aryl bidentate phosphine ligand has proper flexibility due to the characteristic that the aryl bidentate phosphine ligand is soft and rigid, and a most favorable coordination mode and a stable active structure in space are favorably formed. In addition, the aryl bidentate phosphine ligand has the advantages of high stability, simple and convenient synthesis method and the like; and a novel industrial technology is provided for production of organic carboxylate compounds.

Herein, we report on the use of the iron pincer complex Iron-MACHO-BH, in the base-free transfer hydrogenation of esters with EtOH as a hydrogen source. More than 20 substrates including aromatic and aliphatic esters and lactones were reduced affording the desired primary alcohols and diols with moderate to excellent isolated yields. It is also possible to reduce polyesters to the diols with this method, enabling a novel way of plastic recycling. Reduction of the renewable substrate methyl levulinate proceeds to form 1,4-pentanediol directly. The yields are largely governed by the equilibrium between the alcohol and the ethyl ester.
