The use of a chiral (NCP)Ir complex as the precatalyst allowed for the discovery of asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of diaryl ketones with ethanol as the hydrogen source and solvent. This reaction was applicable to various ortho-substituted diaryl keontes, affording benzhydrols in good yields and enantioselectivities. This protocol could be carried out in a gram scale under mild reaction conditions. The utility of the catalytic system was highlighted by the synthesis of the key precursor of (S)-neobenodine.

Complexation of L [L = 5-phenyl-2,8-di-2-pyridinyl-anthyridine] with [Pd(CH3CN)4](BF4)2 and [Pd(CH3CN)3Cl](BF4) in a molar ratio of 1:2 rendered the corresponding dinuclear complexes [Pd2L (CH3CN)4](BF4)4 (1) and [Pd2L (CH3CN)2Cl2](BF4)2 (2), respectively. However, treatment of L with (COD)PdCl2 followed by anion exchange yielded a tetranuclear complex [Pd4L3Cl4](PF6)4(4a). Structures of these complexes are characterized by both spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography. Interconversion of these three complexes was studied via the manipulation of stoichiometric ratio of ligand to metal precursor. The catalytic activity of these complexes for carbonylative Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling was investigated. Complex 2 shows an excellent catalytic activity on the reaction of aryl iodide with arylboronic acid in the presence of atmospheric pressure of CO to give the corresponding benzophenones.

A novel protocol for the transition metal-free 1,2-addition of polyfluoroaryl boronate esters to aldehydes and ketones is reported, which provides secondary alcohols, tertiary alcohols, and ketones. Control experiments and DFT calculations indicate that both the ortho-F substituents on the polyfluorophenyl boronates and the counterion K+ in the carbonate base are critical. The distinguishing features of this procedure include the employment of commercially available starting materials and the broad scope of the reaction with a wide variety of carbonyl compounds giving moderate to excellent yields. Intriguing structural features involving O?H???O and O?H???N hydrogen bonding, as well as arene-perfluoroarene interactions, in this series of racemic polyfluoroaryl carbinols have also been addressed.
