Direct Asymmetric α-Hydroxylation of Cyclic α-Branched Ketones through Enol Catalysis

Enantiopure α-hydroxy carbonyl compounds are common scaffolds in natural products and pharmaceuticals. Although indirect approaches towards their synthesis are known, direct asymmetric methodologies are scarce. Herein, we report the first direct asymmetric α-hydroxylation of α-branched ketones through enol catalysis, enabling a facile access to valuable α-keto tertiary alcohols. The transformation, characterized by the use of nitrosobenzene as the oxidant and a new chiral phosphoric acid as the catalyst, delivers a good scope and excellent enantioselectivities.

p-Toluenesulfonic acid catalysed fluorination of α-branched ketones for the construction of fluorinated quaternary carbon centres

A p-toluenesulfonic acid catalyzed fluorination of α-branched ketones for the construction of fluorinated quaternary carbon centers has been developed, featuring a broad substrate scope, environmentally benign reaction conditions, and operational simplicity.

Promoting reductive tandem reactions of nitrostyrenes with Mo(CO)6 and a palladium catalyst to produce 3 h -indoles

The combination of Mo(CO)6 and 10 mol % of palladium acetate catalyzes the transformation of 2-nitroarenes to 3H-indoles through a tandem cyclization-[1,2] shift reaction of in situ generated nitrosoarenes. Mo(CO)6 appears to have dual roles in this transformation: generate CO and promote C-N bond formation to increase the yield of the N-heterocycle product.

Palladium-catalyzed intramolecular hydroalkylation of alkenyl- β-keto esters, α-aryl ketones, and alkyl ketones in the presence of Me 3SiCl or HCI

Reaction of 3-butenyl β-keto esters or 3-butenyl α-aryl ketones with a catalytic amount of [PdCl2(CH3CN)2] (2) and a stoichiometric amount of Me3SiCl or Me3SiCl/ CuCl2 in dioxane at 25-70°C formed 2-substituted cyclohexanones in good yield with high regioselectivity. This protocol tolerated a number of ester and aryl groups and tolerated substitution at the allylic, enolic, and cis and trans terminal olefinic positions. In situ NMR experiments indicated that the chlorosilane was not directly involved in palladium-catalyzed hydroalkylation, but rather served as a source of HCl, which presumably catalyzes enolization of the ketone. Identification of HCl as the active promoter of palladium-catalyzed hydroalkylation led to the development of an effective protocol for the hydroalkylation of alkyl 3-butenyl ketones that employed sub-stoichiometric amounts of 2, HCl, and CuCl2 in a sealed tube at 70°C.
