It is here reported a fully sustainable and generally applicable protocol for the regioselective hydroformylation of terminal alkenes, using cheap commercially available catalysts and ligands, in mild reaction conditions (70 °C, 9 bar, 40 min). The process can take advantages from both micellar catalysis and microwave irradiation to obtain the linear aldehydes as the major or sole regioisomers in good to high yields. The substrate scope is largely explored as well as the application of hydroformylation in tandem with intramolecular hemiacetalization thus demonstrating the compatibility with a broad variety of functional groups. The reaction is efficient even in large scale and the catalyst and micellar water phase can be reused at least 5 times without any impact in reaction yields. The efficiency and sustainability of this protocol is strictly related to the in situ transformation of the aldehyde into the corresponding Bertagnini's salt that precipitates in the reaction mixture avoiding organic solvent mediated purification steps to obtain the final aldehydes as pure compounds.
Combinatorial chemistry. Use of an intramolecular ruthenium catalyzed olefin/alkyne metathesis reaction in tandem with a Diels-Alder cycloaddition reaction to construct functionalized hexahydroisoindoles

We show here the first example of a ruthenium catalyzed ene-yne metathesis reaction. In tandem with a Diels Alder cycloaddition reaction to efficiently form highly substituted hexahydroisoindole ring systems on Wang resin. This approach was used to prepare a 4200 membered combinatorial library.
