The direct asymmetric Henry reaction with prochiral ketones, leading to tertiary nitroaldols, is an elusive reaction so far limited to a reduced number of reactive substrates such as trifluoromethyl ketones or α-keto carbonyl compounds. Expanding the scop

Herein, the development of a visible-light-induced catalytic system to achieve the decarboxylative acylation of pyridine N-oxides with α-oxocarboxylic acids, at room temperature and using the organic dye fluorescein dimethylammonium as a new type of photocatalyst, is reported. A series of 2-arylacylpyridine N-oxides were selectively synthesized in moderate to good yields by controlling the polarity of the reaction solvent. The developed strategy was successfully applied in the synthesis of an important intermediate of the drug, acrivastine, on a gram scale. Notably, this is the first time that fluorescein dimethylammonium has been used to catalyze the Minisci-type C?H decarboxylative acylation reaction. The mechanism of decarboxylative acylation was studied by capturing adducts of acyl radicals and 1,1-diphenylethylene to confirm a radical mechanism. The disclosed catalytic system provides a green synthetic strategy for decarboxylative acylation without the use of additional oxidants or metal catalysts. (Figure presented.).

Copper-catalyzed visible light mediated direct C–H bond benzylation of pyridine N-oxides with toluene derivatives was accomplished by recent developments in photochemical carbon–carbon bond formation through a photo-induced bond-dissociation strategy. Thi

A copper-catalyzed aerobic oxidation of benzylpyridine N-oxides is reported. The N-oxide moiety acts as a built-in activator for the benzylic methylene oxidation, without requirement of additives. Reaction conditions were identified which suppress undesired benzoylpyridine formation via N-deoxygenation involving intermolecular oxygen transfer. The versatility of the N-oxide group of the benzoylpyridine N-oxide reaction products for post-functionalization of the pyridine ring is demonstrated through efficient C–C, C–N, C–O and C–Cl bond forming procedures, with both nucleophiles and electrophiles. Finally, the applicability of the new synthetic methodology is demonstrated in an alternative route towards the antihistaminic drug Acrivastine via three consecutive N-oxide activated C–H functionalization processes, starting from picoline N-oxide. (Figure presented.).
