A new methodology for the synthesis of α-diketones was reportedviaa one-pot cascade process from aldehydes and ketones catalyzed by a bifunctional iron nanocomposite using H2O2as a green oxidant in water. The one-pot strategy showed excellent catalytic stability, comprehensive suitability of substrates and important practical utility for directly synthesizing biologically active and medicinally valuable N-heterocyclesviaan intermittent process.

We herein report the fabrication of a bifunctional iron nanocomposite catalyst, in which two catalytically active sites of Fe-Nx and Fe phosphate, as oxidation and Lewis acid sites, were simultaneously integrated into a hierarchical N,P-dual doped porous carbon. As a bifunctional catalyst, it exhibited high efficiency for direct oxidative cleavage of alkenes into ketones or their oxidation into 1,2-diketones with a broad substrate scope and high functional group tolerance using TBHP as the oxidant in water under mild reaction conditions. Furthermore, it could be easily recovered for successive recycling without appreciable loss of activity. Mechanistic studies disclose that the direct oxidation of alkenes proceeds via the formation of an epoxide as intermediate followed by either acid-catalyzed Meinwald rearrangement to give ketones with one carbon shorter or nucleophilic ring-opening to generate 1,2-diketones in a cascade manner. This study not only opens up a fancy pathway in the rational design of Fe-N-C catalysts but also offers a simple and efficient method for accessing industrially important ketones and 1,2-diketones from alkenes in a cost-effective and environmentally benign fashion.

This study has led to the development of a novel, highly efficient, 1,2-perfluoro-alkyl/-aryl migration process in reactions of hydrate of 1-perfluoro-alkyl/-aryl-1,2-diketones with alcohols, which are promoted by a Zn(II)/bisoxazoline and form α-perfluoro-alkyl/-aryl-substituted α-hydroxy esters. With (-)-8-phenylmenthol as the alcohol, the corresponding menthol esters are generated in high yields with excellent levels of diastereoselectivity. The mechanistic studies show that the benzilic ester-type rearrangement reaction takes place via an unusual 1,2-migration of electron-deficient trifluoromethyl group rather than the phenyl group. The overall process serves as a novel, efficient, and simple approach for the synthesis of highly enantioenriched, biologically relevant α-hydroxy-α-perfluoroalkyl carboxylic acid derivatives.
