Palladium-catalyzed carbonylation of benzylic ammonium salts to amides and esters: Via C-N bond activation

An efficient palladium-catalyzed carbonylation reaction of readily available quaternary ammonium salts with CO is reported for the first time to afford arylacetamides and arylacetic acid esters via benzylic C-N bond cleavage. This protocol features mild reaction conditions under atmospheric pressure of CO, a redox-neutral process without an additional oxidant, and a broad substrate scope for various kinds of amines, alcohols and phenols.

A novel photochemical Wittig reaction for the synthesis of 2-aryl/alkylbenzofurans

The synthesis of 2-aryl/alkylbenzofurans has been achieved in high yields under photochemical conditions from readily accessible and suitably substituted phosphonium bromides by an intramolecular photochemical Wittig reaction onto aryloxycarbonyl groups.

A convenient one-pot completely stereoselective synthesis of trans-4-Hydroxystilbenes and its derivatives and X-ray structure of its precursor

The synthesis of E-isomer of 4-Hydroxystilbene and its derivatives 3 by reductive elimination of the carbonyl function in 2-phenyl-1-(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethan-1-one and its derivatives 2 and the X-ray structure of 2a are described.

REGIOSELECTIVITY OF COMPLEXATIONS OF SUBSTITUTED PHENYL BENZOATES AND PHENYL PHENYLACETATES WITH Cr(CO)6

Selectivity of complexation of substituted phenyl benzoates is very low.In most cases, comparable yields of both regioisomeric complexes are isolated.Exception is 4-chlorophenyl ester, where benzoic acid moiety is complexed nearly exclusively.Very high regioselectivity of complexation was observed with substituted phenyl phenylacetates.The substituent of substituted phenols has not any effect on the complexation, and only phenylacetic acid moiety is complexed.This observation supports the recently proposed mechanism of the catalytic activity of the esters at arene complexation.
