Electrophotocatalytic C?H Heterofunctionalization of Arenes

The electrophotocatalytic heterofunctionalization of arenes is described. Using 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyanoquinone (DDQ) under a mild electrochemical potential with visible-light irradiation, arenes undergo oxidant-free hydroxylation, alkoxylation, and amination with high chemoselectivity. In addition to batch reactions, an electrophotocatalytic recirculating flow process is demonstrated, enabling the conversion of benzene to phenol on a gram scale.

Benzene C-H Etherification via Photocatalytic Hydrogen-Evolution Cross-Coupling Reaction

Aryl ethers can be constructed from the direct coupling between the benzene C-H bond and the alcohol O-H bond with the evolution of hydrogen via the synergistic merger of photocatalysis and cobalt catalysis. Utilizing the dual catalyst system consisting of 3-cyano-1-methylquinolinum photocatalyst and cobaloxime, intermolecular etherification of arenes with various alcohols and intramolecular alkoxylation of 3-phenylpropanols with formation of chromanes are accomplished. These reactions proceed at remarkably mild conditions, and the sole byproduct is equivalent hydrogen gas.

Behaviour of iprit carbonate analogues in solventless reactions

Sulfur iprit carbonate analogues have been investigated in neat conditions at atmospheric pressure, in the presence and in the absence of a catalytic amount of base. Furthermore, their reaction mechanism has been discussed in detail. In these novel reaction conditions, sulfur mustard carbonate analogues, that previously showed poor or no reactivity, remarkably undergo efficient nucleophilic substitution with several substrates.
