We describe a titanocene(III)-catalyzed deuterosilylation of epoxides that provides β-deuterated anti-Markovnikov alcohols with excellent D-incorporation, in high yield, and often excellent diastereoselectivity after desilylation. The key to the success of the reaction is a novel activation method of Cp2TiCl2 and (tBuC5H4)2TiCl2 with BnMgBr and PhSiD3 to provide [(RC5H4)2Ti(III)D] without isotope scrambling. It was developed after discovering an off-cycle scrambling with the previously described method. Our precision deuteration can be applied to the synthesis of drug precursors and highlights the power of combining radical chemistry with organometallic catalysis.

Stereoselective synthesis of trisubstituted alkenes is a long-standing challenge in organic chemistry, due to the small energy differences between E and Z isomers of trisubstituted alkenes (compared with 1,2-disubstituted alkenes). Transition metal-catalyzed isomerization of 1,1-disubstituted alkenes can serve as an alternative approach to trisubstituted alkenes, but it remains underdeveloped owing to issues relating to reaction efficiency and stereoselectivity. Here we show that a novel cobalt catalyst can overcome these challenges to provide an efficient and stereoselective access to a broad range of trisubstituted alkenes. This protocol is compatible with both mono- and dienes and exhibits a good functional group tolerance and scalability. Moreover, it has proven to be a useful tool to construct organic luminophores and a deuterated trisubstituted alkene. A preliminary study of the mechanism suggests that a cobalt-hydride pathway is involved in the reaction. The high stereoselectivity of the reaction is attributed to both a π-πstacking effect and the steric hindrance between substrate and catalyst.

Belonging to the technical field of metal catalytic synthesis, the invention discloses a method for stereoselective synthesis of (E)-trisubstituted olefin. The method includes: taking 1, 1-disubstituted olefin as the raw material, and adopting a combination of CoX2 and PAO ligand as the catalyst; and in the presence of an activating reagent, carrying out reaction for 0.5min-48h at a temperature ranging from -30DEG C to 80DEG C to prepare (E)-trisubstituted olefin. Compared with the prior art, the method has the advantages of more economical, efficient and environment-friendly catalyst, good tolerance of the reaction functional group, mild reaction conditions, simple operation, no need for participation of additional reagents, and atom economy of 100%. In addition, the reaction has no needof any other toxic transition metal (like ruthenium, rhodium, palladium, etc.) salt, therefore the method has great practical application value in pharmaceutical and food chemical industry.
