A cobalt-catalyzed decarboxylative methylation of aliphatic redox-active esters [ N-(acyloxy)phthalimides; RAEs] with trimethylaluminum under mild conditions was developed, providing a method for transforming a carboxylate group into a methyl group without redox fluctuation. Primary and secondary RAEs were both amenable substrates, whereas a tertiary RAE delivered an elimination product. Triethylaluminum was also used to deliver a decarboxylative ethylation product.

The NHC-copper-catalyzed Z-selective semi-reduction of terminal and internal alkynes, as well as the NHC-copper-catalyzed reduction of primary alkyl triflates and primary and secondary alkyl iodides and bromides are described. The high chemoselectivity demonstrated in these examples illustrates the mild nature of copper hydride complexes as reducing agents, which have applications in synthetic chemistry beyond their traditional role in the reduction of activated alkenes and carbonyl compounds.

A solid-liquid biphasic system (dichloromethane and chromatographic neutral alumina) has been tested for the aromatic chlorination of various alkyl aryl ethers using a reagent combination of sodium chlorite and manganese(III) acetylacetonate catalyst. Efficient incorporation of a chlorine atom into the benzene ring with high para-selectivity results. This catalytic system is also applicable to the regiocontrolled chlorination of polyether substrates.
