The deoxygenation of tertiary and secondary alcohols to give the corresponding alkanes is conventionally performed using an organosilane and a strong acid. In this study, a deoxygenation method was developed for tertiary and secondary alcohols, using trimethylsilane and trimethylsilyl iodide generated in situ from sodium borohydride and trimethylsilyl chloride, and trimethylsilyl chloride and potassium iodide, respectively. With our method, tertiary and secondary alcohols, which provided stable carbocations, were converted into the corresponding alkanes. This paper also presents the optimization of the reaction conditions, the reaction mechanism, as well as the scope and limitations of the method.

The synthesis of triarylmethanes via Pd-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura reactions between diarylmethyl 2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorobenzoates and aryl boronic acids is described. The system operates under mild conditions and has a broad substrate scope, including the coupling of diphenylmethanol derivatives that do not contain extended aromatic substituents. This is significant as these substrates, which result in the types of triarylmethane products that are prevalent in pharmaceuticals, have not previously been compatible with systems for diarylmethyl ester coupling. Furthermore, the reaction can be performed stereospecifically to generate stereoinverted products. On the basis of DFT calculations, it is proposed that the oxidative addition of the diarylmethyl 2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorobenzoate substrate occurs via an SN2 pathway, which results in the inverted products. Mechanistic studies indicate that oxidative addition of the diarylmethyl 2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorobenzoate substrates to (IPr)Pd(0) results in the selective cleavage of the O-C(benzyl) bond in part because of a stabilizing η3-interaction between the benzyl ligand and Pd. This is in contrast to previously described Pd-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura reactions involving phenyl esters, which involve selective cleavage of the C(acyl)-O bond, because there is no stabilizing η3-interaction. It is anticipated that this fundamental knowledge will aid the development of new catalytic systems, which use esters as electrophiles in cross-coupling reactions.
RETRACTED ARTICLE: Heterogeneous Titania-Photoredox/Nickel Dual Catalysis: Decarboxylative Cross-Coupling of Carboxylic Acids with Aryl Iodides

The efficient, mild, and semiheterogeneous decarboxylative cross-coupling of a variety alkyl carboxylic acids with aryl iodides has been accomplished through a merger of TiO2 photoredox and nickel cross-coupling chemistries. The protocol is tolerant to a wide range of substituted aryl iodides and alkyl carboxylic acids. Through replacement of the commonly employed Ir transition-metal complexes with P25 TiO2 as photocatalyst, we show that these transformations can be heterogenized with little effect on the efficiency of these transformations, while at the same time decreasing the associated costs due to the reusability and inexpensive nature of the TiO2 photocatalyst.

A palladium-catalyzed reductive coupling between N-tosylhydrazones and aryl bromides has been developed. The reaction provides an efficient method for the synthesis of diarylmethanes and triarylmethanes via the formation of C(sp2)-C(sp3) single bonds. This new methodology for the synthesis of diarylmethanes and triarylmethanes is featured by the ready availability of the starting materials, mild reaction conditions, and the tolerance of wide range of functional groups. The reaction follows a pathway including palladium carbene formation, migratory insertion, and reduction of the alkylpalladium(II) intermediate.

Palladium-catalyzed reductive coupling reactions between N-tosylhydrazones and aryl halides lead to the formation of C(sp3)-C(sp2) bonds. This approach provides a general route for the synthesis of triarylmethanes.
