Diboron-mediated rhodium-catalyzed transfer hydrogenation of functionalized arenes is reported. In addition to good functional group tolerance, the reaction features operational simplicity and controllable chemoselectivity. The general applicability of this procedure is demonstrated by the selective hydrogenation of a range of arenes, including functionalized benzenes, biphenyls, and polyaromatics.

Here we report the synthesis and application of trifluoromethyl thianthrenium triflate (TT-CF3+OTf-) as a novel trifluoromethylating reagent, which is conveniently accessible in a single step from thianthrene and triflic anhydride. We demonstrate the use of TT-CF3+OTf- in electrophilic, radical, and nucleophilic trifluoromethylation reactions.
Can Heteroarenes/Arenes Be Hydrogenated Over Catalytic Pd/C Under Ambient Conditions?
Tanaka, Nao,Usuki, Toyonobu

Hydrogenation of over a dozen aromatic compounds, including both heteroarenes and arenes, over palladium on carbon (Pd/C, 1–100 molpercent) with H2-balloon pressure at room temperature is reported. Analyses using pyridine as a model substrate revealed that acetic acid was the best solvent, as using only 1 molpercent Pd/C provided piperidine quantitatively. Substrate scope analysis and density functional theory calculations indicated that reaction rates are highly dependent on frontier molecular orbital characteristics and the steric bulkiness of substituents. Moreover, the established method was used for the concise synthesis of the anti-Alzheimer drug donepezil (Aricept?).
