The one-pot/two-step combination of enzymes and polar organometallic chemistry in aqueous media is for the first time presented as a proof-of-concept study. The unprecedented combination of the catalytic oxidation of secondary alcohols by the system laccase/TEMPO with the ultrafast addition (3 s reaction time) of polar organometallic reagents (RLi/RMgX) to thein situformed ketones, run under air at room temperature, allows the straightforward and chemoselective synthesis of tertiary alcohols with broad substrate scope and excellent conversions (up to 96%).

Among the six alkyldiphenylmethanol derivatives assessed in this study, five showed persistent room temperature phosphorescence (pRTP), whereas the original diphenylmethanol (DPhHOH) did not. pRTP is a unique luminescence phenomenon that appears only in t

1,2-Aryl migration of α,α-diaryl tertiary azides was achieved by using the catalytic system of FeCl2/N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) SIPr·HCl. The reaction generated aniline products in good yields after one-pot reduction of the migration-resultant imines.

A tandem protocol to access tertiary alcohols has been developed which combines the organocatalytic oxidation of secondary alcohols to ketones followed by their chemoselective addition by several RLi reagents. Reactions take place at room temperature, under air and in aqueous solutions, a trio of conditions that are typically forbidden in polar organometallic chemistry.

A general protocol for visible-light-induced cyclopropanation of alkenes was developed with bromomethyl silicate as a methylene transfer reagent, offering a robust tool for accessing highly valuable cyclopropanes. In addition to α-aryl or methyl-substituted Michael acceptors and styrene derivatives, the unactivated 1,1-dialkyl ethylenes were also shown to be viable substrates. Apart from realizing the cyclopropanation of terminal alkenes, the methyl transfer reaction has been further demonstrated to be amenable to the internal olefins. The photocatalytic cyclopropanation of 1,3-bis(1-arylethenyl)benzenes was also achieved, giving polycyclopropane derivatives in excellent yields. With late-stage cyclopropanation as the key strategy, the synthetic utility of this transformation was also demonstrated by the total synthesis of LG100268.
Iodine-catalyzed transformation of aryl-substituted alcohols under solvent-free and highly concentrated reaction conditions

, p. 747 - 762 (2018/01/17)
Iodine-catalyzed transformations of alcohols under solvent-free reaction conditions (SFRC) and under highly concentrated reaction conditions (HCRC) in the presence of various solvents were studied in order to gain insight into the behavior of the reaction intermediates under these conditions. Dimerization, dehydration and substitution were the three types of transformations observed with benzylic alcohols. Dimerization and substitution reactions were predominant in the case of primary- and secondary alcohols, whereas dehydration prevailed in the case of tertiary alcohols. The relative reactivity of substituted 1-phenylethanols in I2-catalyzed dimerization under SFRC provided a good Hammett plot ρ+ = -2.8 (r2 = 0.98), suggesting the presence of electron-deficient intermediates with a certain degree of developed charge in the rate-determining step.
One-pot sustainable synthesis of tertiary alcohols by combining ruthenium-catalysed isomerisation of allylic alcohols and chemoselective addition of polar organometallic reagents in deep eutectic solvents

, p. 3069 - 3077 (2017/07/24)
Ru(iv)-Catalysed redox isomerisation of allylic alcohols has, for the first time, been successfully assembled with the chemoselective addition of organolithium or organomagnesium reagents to the in situ formed ketones, en route to tertiary alcohols, employing deep eutectic solvents as environmentally friendly reaction media. The overall transformation, which formally involves three consecutive and different steps such as (i) the reduction of a C-C double bond, (ii) the oxidation of a secondary carbinol moiety, and (iii) a chemoselective C-C bond formation, takes place in protic and biorenewable eutectic mixtures in a sequential one-pot fashion using a commercially and easily available catalytic system, with excellent conversions (up to 99% yield), at room temperature and under air in the last step, with no concomitant reduction or enolisation processes, and with high atom economy, in agreement with the principles of the so-called green chemistry.

Iron-catalyzed C-H functionalization of aromatics has attracted widespread attention from chemists in recent years, while the requirement of an elaborate directing group on the substrate has so far hampered the use of simple aromatic carbonyl compounds such as benzoic acid and ketones, much reducing its synthetic utility. We describe here a combination of a mildly reactive methylaluminum reagent and a new tridentate phosphine ligand for metal catalysis, 4-(bis(2-(diphenylphosphanyl)phenyl)phosphanyl)-N,N-dimethylaniline (Me2N-TP), that allows us to convert an ortho C-H bond to a C-CH3 bond in aromatics and heteroaromatics bearing simple carbonyl groups under mild oxidative conditions. The reaction is powerful enough to methylate all four ortho C-H bonds in benzophenone. The reaction tolerates a variety of functional groups, such as boronic ester, halide, sulfide, heterocycles, and enolizable ketones.

It has been demonstrated that aluminium triflate in either stoichiometric or catalytic quantities facilitates the addition-elimination of Grignard reagents to electron-rich ketones, such as methoxy substituted acetophenones, propiophenone and chromanone in a one-pot process, and that it has an enhancing effect on the addition of these reagents to the ketones. It has also been found that the reactions are highly stereoselective towards one regioisomer of the alkene in the case of oxygenated aryl-alkyl substituted substrates, but not when the elimination originates from a double benzylic alcohol intermediate.
Synthesis of naphthalenophane-type macrocyclic compounds using Mn(III)-based dihydrofuran-clipping reaction
Matsumoto, Chiaki,Yasutake, Ken-ji,Nishino, Hiroshi
, p. 6963 - 6971 (2016/10/14)
The Mn(III)-based oxidation of 2,7-, 1,8-, and 1,5-disubstituted naphthalenes bearing both the 1,4-dioxa-7,7-diphenylhep-6-enyl and 1,4-dioxa-5,7-dioxooctyl groups gave new [12]naphthalenophanes along with the corresponding diploids via assembly of the dihydrofuran ring. A similar reaction of the 2,6-disubstituted naphthalene having the same substituents did not produce the naphthalenophane, but the diploid, [12,12](2,6)naphthalenophane, was obtained in a small amount. The 2,6-disubstituted naphthalene tethered to the 1,4,7-trioxa-10,10-diphenyldec-9-enyl and 1,4,7-trioxa-8,10-dioxoundecyl groups also underwent the dihydrofuran-clipping reaction to afford a trace amount of the desired [18](2,6)naphthalenophane. The reaction details and the structure determination of the products are described.
