Photoredox Catalysis Enables Decarboxylative Cyclization with Hypervalent Iodine(III) Reagents: Access to 2,5-Disubstituted 1,3,4-Oxadiazoles

A novel approach to 2,5-disubstituted 1,3,4-oxadiazoles derivatives via a decarboxylative cyclization reaction by photoredox catalysis between commercially available α-oxocarboxylic acids and hypervalent iodine(III) reagent is described. This powerful transformation involves the coupling reaction between two different kinds of radical species and the formation of C-N and C-O bonds.

Ruthenium(II)-Catalyzed Cross-Coupling of Benzoyl Formic Acids with Toluenes: Synthesis of 2-Phenylacetophenones

Herein, we report a direct method to synthesize 2-phenylacetophenone through a ruthenium(II)-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction between acyl and benzyl radical. The various derivatives of 2-phenylacetophenone were prepared easily in moderate to good yields. These reactions provide a straightforward pathway to synthesize a variety of ketones bearing various functional groups.

Selective photoredox decarboxylation of α-ketoacids to allylic ketones and 1,4-dicarbonyl compounds dependent on cobaloxime catalysis

A photoredox/cobaloxime co-catalyzed coupling reaction of α-ketoacids and methacrylates to obtain allylic ketones is described. Without the cobaloxime catalyst, 1,4-dicarbonyl compounds are generated. The cobaloxime catalyst enables dehydrogenation to generate the formation of new olefins. The generality, good substrate scope and mild conditions are good features in the photoredox/cobaloxime catalysis protocol, and this method will provide new opportunities for the functionalization of more olefins.

Pd(OAc)2-Catalyzed Asymmetric Hydrogenation of α-Iminoesters

An efficient Pd(OAc)2-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of α-iminoesters was realized for the first time at 1 atm hydrogen pressure and room temperature. Pd(OAc)2, a less expensive Pd salt with low toxicity, was found to be the most suitable catalyst precursor rather than Pd(TFA)2 which is usually the catalyst of choice for homogeneous asymmetric hydrogenation. The chiral α-arylglycine fragments are widely found in many chiral products and bioactive molecules.
