A mild and green photochemical protocol for the oxidation of alcohols to aldehydes and ketones was developed. Utilizing thioxanthenone as the photocatalyst, molecular oxygen from air as the oxidant and cheap household lamps or sunlight as the light source, a variety of primary and secondary alcohols were converted into the corresponding aldehydes or ketones in low to excellent yields. The reaction mechanism was extensively studied.

A copper-catalyzed oxidative cleavage reaction of alkynes using NFSI and TBHP was described. Various terminal and internal alkyne substrates were employed to render quick access to aryl ketone products in moderate to good yields. NFSI not only functioned as N-centered radical precursors but also engaged in the aryl group migration. Mechanistic studies also suggested the important role of water in the title reactions.

We develop herein an efficient rhodium-catalyzed remote isomerization of aromatic and aliphatic alkenyl alcohols into ketones. This catalytic process, with a commercially available catalyst and ligand ([RhCl(cod)]2 and Xantphos), features high efficiency, low catalyst loading, good functional group tolerance, a broad substrate scope, and no (sub)stoichiometric additive. Preliminary mechanistic studies suggest that this transformation involves an iterative dissociative β-hydride elimination-migration insertion process.

A highly chemoselective, palladium-NHC (NHC = N-heterocyclic carbene)-catalyzed, direct cross-coupling between B-sp3-alkyl reagents and activated amides by N-C(O) cleavage is reported. Palladium-NHC precatalysts promote chemoselective alkylations of amides that are inaccessible by applying strong organometallic reagents. Various amides, including challenging primary amides after direct and site-selective N,N-di-Boc activation, are compatible with this method. The potential of this mild protocol is demonstrated in sequential C(sp2)-C(sp2)/C(sp2)-C(sp3) cross-couplings deploying a di-Boc amide derived from a common primary amide bond. The method provides a rare example of air- and moisture-stable, well-defined, and highly reactive Pd-NHC precatalysts in B-alkyl-Suzuki cross-couplings.
Visible-Light-Driven Epoxyacylation and Hydroacylation of Olefins Using Methylene Blue/Persulfate System in Water
De Souza, Gabriela F. P.,Bonacin, Juliano A.,Salles, Airton G.
, p. 8331 - 8340 (2018/07/21)
A visible-light-driven strategy for hydroacylation and epoxyacylation of olefins in water using methylene blue as photoredox catalyst and persulfate as oxidant is reported. In this unprecedented unified approach, two different transformations are accomplished using only one set of reagents. The method has a broad scope spanning a range of aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes as well as conjugated and nonconjugated olefins to deliver ketones and epoxyketones from abundant and inexpensive chemical feedstocks.

Zygadlo,Dardas,Nowicka,Hofmann,Galewski
scheme or table, p. 283 - 291 (2011/08/02)
In this paper we present a series of novel compounds, bis(4-(4-alkylphenyl) azophenyl) 2-nitroisophtalates, which exhibit nematic and banana-type liquidcrystalline phases. The alkyl chain length varies from 1 to 18 carbons. The first ten members of this series exhibit nematic phase. The last eleven compounds exhibit banana-type liquid crystalline phases. The propyl and pentyl derivatives have extra second type of banana mesophase. Copyright Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
Reactivities of mixed organozinc and mixed organocopper reagents, 2. Selective n-alkyl transfer in tri-n-butylphosphine-catalyzed acylation of n-alkyl phenylzincs; an atom economic synthesis of n-alkyl aryl ketones
Erdik, Ender,Pekel, ?zgen ?mür
experimental part, p. 1501 - 1503 (2009/06/21)
Tri-n-butylphosphine-catalyzed acylation of mixed n-alkyl phenylzincs with aromatic acyl halides in THF is efficient in selective transfer of n-alkyl groups to produce n-alkyl aryl ketones in good yields. This route provides an atom economic organocatalyzed alternative to transition metal-catalyzed acylation of di-n-alkylzincs.

A new method to separate and reuse the catalyst system consisting of a rhodium complex and 2-aminopyridines for chelation-assisted hydroacylation was achieved using phenol and 4,4′-dipyridyl as the reaction medium, and 4-diphenylphosphinobenzoic acid as a ligand. Copyright
Direct preparation of benzylic manganese reagents from benzyl halides, sulfonates, and phosphates and their reactions: Applications in organic synthesis
Suh, YoungSung,Lee, Jun-Sik,Kim, Seoung-Hoi,Rieke, Reuben D.
, p. 20 - 36 (2007/10/03)
The use of highly active manganese (Mn)*, prepared by the Rieke method, was investigated for the direct preparation of benzylic manganese reagents. The oxidative addition of the highly active manganese to benzylic halides was easily completed under mild conditions. Moreover, benzylic manganese sulfonates and phosphates were prepared by direct oxidative addition of Mn* to the carbon-oxygen bonds of benzylic sulfonates and phosphates. The resulting benzylic manganese reagents were found to undergo cross-coupling reactions with a variety of electrophiles. Most of these reactions were carried out in the absence of any transition metal catalyst under mild conditions. In addition, the use of highly active manganese was also studied for preparation of homo-coupled products of functionalized benzyl halides without transition metal catalysts. These useful approaches provided not only a facile synthetic route to the preparation of resoricinolic lipids but a facile synthesis of functionalized 4-benzylpyridines by regioselective and chemo selective γ-addition of benzylic group to N-alkoxycarbonylpyridinum salts.
