An electrochemical hydropyridylation of thioester-activated alkenes with 4-cyanopyridines has been developed. The reactions experience a tandem electroreduction of both substrates on the cathode surface, protonation, and radical cross-coupling process, resulting in a variety of valuable pyridine variants, which contain a tertiary and even a quaternary carbon at the α-position of pyridines, in high yields. The employment of thioesters to the conjugated alkenes enables no requirement of catalyst and high temperature, representing a highly sustainable synthetic method.

Thiocarbonylation of alkenes offers an ideal procedure for the synthesis of thioesters. However, thiocarbonylation of alkenes, especially styrenes, to produce valuable linear thioesters has remained a challenge. In this Letter, a general palladium-catalyz

The Pd-catalyzed Fukuyama reaction of thioesters with organozinc reagents is a mild, functional-group-tolerant method for acylation chemistry. Its Ni-catalyzed variant might be a sustainable alternative to expensive catalytic Pd sources. We investigated the reaction of S-ethyl thioesters with aryl zinc halides with hetero- and homotopic Ni precatalysts and several ligands. The results show that both homo- and heterotopic species may contribute to catalysis. The substrate scope using an operationally homogeneous defined Ni complex was established. Acyl radicals are postulated as short-lived intermediates.

Redox transformation of an α,β-unsaturated aldehyde to a carboxylic acid derivative by means of a combination of TMSCN and DBU was investigated. In addition to the wide use of the carboxylic acid derivatives provided by this reaction, temperature-dependent control of the kinetic or thermodynamic protonation pattern was found to selectively switch the stereochemistry of the acyl group in the product.
Conjugate reduction and reductive aldol cyclization of α,β- unsaturated thioesters catalyzed by (BDP)CuH

A conjugate reduction of α,β-unsaturated thioesters catalyzed by copper hydride using PMHS as stoichiometric reductant has been developed. 1,2-Bis(diphenylphosphino)benzene (BDP) was the most effective ligand for this reduction. Saturated thioesters could be produced in excellent yields when the substituent on the thiol is not sterically-demanding. This protocol was applied to induce the reductive aldol cyclization of keto-enethioates, which could offer β-hydroxythioesters in moderate to good yields.
277. Structure and Chemistry of Malonylmethyl- and Succinyl-Radicals. The Search for Homolytic 1,2-Rearrangements

Malonylmethyl radical I and its thioester analogue II were generated by standard photolytic and thermolytic methods from perester and bromo precursors.The structures of I and II were examined by ESR spectroscopy and found to exist in preferred conformations.However, no indication for their rearrangement by 1,2-shift of either an ethoxycarboxyl or (ethylthio)carbonyl group to the corresponding succinyl radicals III and IV, respectively, was found at temperatures below -40 deg C.At higher temperatures of up to 140 deg C, the search for malonylmethyl -> succinyl rearrangement was examined by thorough-product analysis of the perester decomposition.There is evidence for the rearrangement of the radical I to III by photolysis and of the radical II to IV by thermolysis at 130 deg C in chlorobenzene to only a small extent.
