Nickel-Catalyzed C(sp3)-H Functionalization of Benzyl Nitriles: Direct Michael Addition to Terminal Vinyl Ketones

An efficient nickel(0)-catalyzed addition of benzyl nitriles to terminal vinyl ketones via C(sp3)-H functionalization has been developed. The reaction provides a novel and efficient protocol for the synthesis of α-functionalized benzyl nitriles with a wide range of structural diversity under mild reaction conditions while obviating the use of a strong base. The work might be potentially useful toward the development of an enantioselective variant using chiral nitrogen ligands.

Method for synthesizing alpha,beta-unsaturated aryl ketone compound from dimethyl sulfoxide and arylethanone

The invention discloses a method for synthesizing an alpha,beta-unsaturated aryl ketone compound from dimethyl sulfoxide and arylethanone. According to the method, dimethyl sulfoxide and arylethanoneare subjected to a one-pot reaction in the presence of carboxylate and persulfate so as to produce the alpha,beta-unsaturated aryl ketone compound. The method uses dimethyl sulfoxide as a methylenation reagent and employs a one-pot process for high-selectivity high-yield synthesis of the alpha,beta-unsaturated aryl ketone compound from arylethanone; and the method is simple to operate, low in cost, friendly to environment and beneficial for industrial production.

Transition Metal-Free α-Csp3-H Methylenation of Ketones to Form C=C Bond Using Dimethyl Sulfoxide as Carbon Source

A direct α-Csp3-H methylenation of arylketones to form C=C bond using dimethyl sulfoxide as one-carbon source is achieved under transition metal-free reaction condition. Various aryl ketone derivatives react readily with DMSO, producing the α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds in yields of 42 to 90%. This method features a transition metal-free reaction condition, wide substrate scope and using DMSO as novel one-carbon source to form C=C bond, thus providing an efficient and expeditious approach to an important class of α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds. Based on the preliminary experiments, a plausible mechanism of this transformation is disclosed.

Direct Synthesis of γ-Keto Sulfones from Allylic Alcohols: One-Pot Palladium(II)-Catalyzed Generation of Enones Followed by Water-Mediated 1,4-Addition of Organosulfinates

Allylic alcohols were exploited as synthetic precursors of γ-keto sulfones. The reaction involved the one-pot generation of α,β-enones in situ from the allylic alcohols by using a PdII–dioxygen catalytic system and subsequent sulfa-Michael addition in the presence of water. Importantly, water was identified as a sustainable substitute for a toxic copper salt to promote organosulfonyl addition. Diverse examples of aromatic and aliphatic γ-keto sulfones were prepared. Specially, Ar–X (X = Br, Cl) bonds were tolerated, which indicated a chemoselective catalytic system for the preparation of halogen-bearing γ-keto sulfones. This one-pot method does not require an acid, a base, or isolation of any intermediate. Control experiments indicated that the active catalyst of the first step also promoted the subsequent C–S bond-formation reaction. Water was found to accelerate the reaction rate and to be involved in the protonolysis of the σ-alkylpalladium complex, as corroborated by deuterium incorporation.

Iron-catalyzed α-methylenation of ketones with N,N-Dimethylacetamide: An approach for α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds

In this study, we developed a general iron-catalyzed α-methylenation of ketones by using N,N-dimethylacetamide as the one-carbon source. Various ketones, including aryl and alkyl ketones, enones, and dicarbonyl compounds were well tolerated to yield the corresponding α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds in the presence of an iron catalyst, peroxides, and N,N-dimethylacetamide under aerobic conditions. A general and facile iron-catalyzed α-methylenation of carbonyl compounds by using N-methyl amides as the one-carbon source was developed. Various carbonyl compounds (aryl- or alkyl-substituted, enones, 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds) were well tolerated to furnish the corresponding α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds in the presence of an iron catalyst, peroxides, and N-methyl amides under aerobic conditions.

N-Heterocyclic carbene-catalyzed double acylation of enones with benzils

Thiazolium carbene-catalyzed reaction of aromatic 1,2-diketones with enones in aprotic solvents gave double acylation products in good yields, whereas hydroacylation products formed by Stetter reaction were not detected at all. These results suggested the generation of aroyloxyenamine species from the 1,2-diketones instead of hydroxyenamines (Breslow intermediates). This journal is
