Towards assembling of diarylmethine unit present in biologically important molecules, we have developed a new Weinreb Amide (WA) based building block derived from glycolic acid. The WA functionality present in this building block permits the sequential addition of various arylmagnesium bromide reagents in a controlled manner that enables assembly of a diarylmethine unit. The developed synthetic route provides easy access to important diarylethenes and α,α-diarylethylene glycols. The synthesized α,α-diarylethylene glycols provide access to synthetically important symmetrical and unsymmetrical α,α-diaryl acetaldehydes as valuable intermediates.
Synergistic interplay of a non-heme iron catalyst and amino acid coligands in H2O2 activation for asymmetric epoxidation of α-alkyl-substituted styrenes

Highly enantioselective epoxidation of α-substituted styrenes with aqueous H2O2 is described by using a chiral iron complex as the catalyst and N-protected amino acids (AAs) as coligands. The amino acids synergistically cooperate with the iron center in promoting an efficient activation of H2O2 to catalyze epoxidation of this challenging class of substrates with good yields and stereoselectivities (up to 97% ee) in short reaction times.
Arylation of α-pivaloxyl ketones with arylboronic reagents via Ni-catalyzed sp3 C-O activation
Huang, Kun,Li, Gang,Huang, Wei-Ping,Yu, Da-Gang,Shi, Zhang-Jie
supporting information; experimental part, p. 7224 - 7226 (2011/08/09)
A Suzuki-Miyaura coupling of α-pivaloxyl ketones via Ni-catalyzed sp3 C-O activation to produce α-aryl ketones is developed. This study offers a convenient method to construct α-arylation products from readily available α-hydroxyl carbonyl compounds.
