C-O bond cleavage is often a key process in defunctionalization of organic compounds as well as in degradation of natural polymers. However, it seldom occurs regioselectively for different types of C-O bonds under metal-free mild conditions. Here we report a facile chemo-selective cleavage of the α-C-O bonds in α-carboxy ketones by commercially available pinacolborane under the catalysis of diazaphosphinane based on a mechanism switch strategy. This new reaction features high efficiency, low cost and good group-tolerance, and is also amenable to catalytic deprotection of desyl-protected carboxylic acids and amino acids. Mechanistic studies indicated an electron-transfer-initiated radical process, underlining two crucial steps: (1) the initiator azodiisobutyronitrile switches originally hydridic reduction to kinetically more accessible electron reduction; and (2) the catalytic phosphorus species upconverts weakly reducing pinacolborane into strongly reducing diazaphosphinane.

Paragraph 0039; 0040, (2018/09/13)
The present invention relates to a method for preparing diphenylethanone from benzyl alcohol through a photocatalytic one-step method. According to the method, diphenylethanone is directly prepared byusing inexpensive benzyl alcohol as a raw material under the action of a solid photocatalyst; and the reaction process comprises: mixing benzyl alcohol, a catalyst and an acetonitrile solvent are mixed, placing in a pressure container, replacing with an inert gas, and carrying out illumination stirring at a room temperature, wherein the reaction time is more than 1 h, the catalyst is easily separated from the reaction system after the reaction and can be recycled multiple times, and the separation yield of diphenylethanone is up to 81%.

The chemoselective reduction of several structurally diverse compounds containing carbonyl groups was achieved in the presence of low-valent titanium reagents. This novel synthetic method provides easy access to highly selective reduction of carbonyl groups, and possesses several advantages including one-step procedure, convenient manipulation, good to excellent yields, and short reaction times.
