The direct formation of aryl C?O bonds via the intramolecular dehydrogenative coupling of a C?H bond and a pendant alcohol represents a powerful synthetic transformation. Herein, we report a method for intramolecular arene C?H etherification via an umpoled alcohol cyclization mediated by an I(III) N-HVI reagent. This approach provides access to functionalized chromane scaffolds from primary, secondary and tertiary alcohols via a cascade cyclization-iodonium salt formation, the latter providing a versatile functional handle for downstream derivatization. Computational studies support initial formation of an umpoled O-intermediate via I(III) ligand exchange, followed by competitive direct and spirocyclization/1,2-shift pathways. (Figure presented.).

The direct α-alkylation of ketones with alcohol to synthesize important α-alkylated ketones and enones is an attractive procedure for C-C bond formation. High reaction temperatures are always needed for heterogeneous catalysis using non-noble metals, and switching product selectivity in one catalysis system remains a great challenge. In the present study, a visible-light-driven procedure for this reaction is proposed, using oxidized TiN photocatalysts under mild conditions, whereby the product selectivity can be well-tuned. Oxidized TiN photocatalysts with tunable surface N/O ratios were successfully synthesized through the facile and flexible thermal oxidation treatment of low-cost TiN nanopowder. The α-alkylation of acetophenone with benzyl alcohol to form the two important compounds chalcone and dihydrochalcone occurred even at room temperature and almost complete conversion was achieved at 100 °C under visible light. The proportion of the two products can be well-tuned by switching the surface N/O ratio of the synthesized photocatalysts. Visible light is demonstrated to affect the surface N/O ratio of the photocatalysts and contribute to tuning the product selectivity. Light intensity and action spectrum study proves that the generation of energetic charge carriers results in the observed activities under visible light, based on interband transitions of TiN or the ligand-to-metal charge transfer (LMCT) effect of the surface complex formed on TiO2. Thermal energy can be coupled with light energy within this photocatalytic system, which will facilitate the full use of solar energy. Different sequential reaction mechanisms on TiN and TiO2 are proposed to be responsible for the tunable product selectivity. The wide reaction scope, the fine conversion at a low light intensity, and the favorable reusability of photocatalysts prove the great application potential of this visible-light-driven procedure for the α-alkylation of ketones with primary alcohols.

A chiral iridium carbene-oxazoline catalyst is reported that is able to directly and efficiently hydrogenate a wide variety of ketones in excellent yields and good enantioselectivity (up to 93 % ee). Moreover, when using racemic α-substituted ketones, excellent diastereoselectivities were obtained (dr 99:1) by dynamic kinetic resolution of the in situ formed enolate. Overall, the herein described hydrogenation occurs under ambient conditions using low hydrogen pressures, providing a direct and atom efficient method towards chiral secondary alcohols.

The development of inexpensive and practical catalysts for arene hydrogenations is key for future valorizations of this general feedstock. Here, we report the development of cobalt nanoparticles supported on silica as selective and general catalysts for such reactions. The specific nanoparticles were prepared by assembling cobalt-pyromellitic acid-piperazine coordination polymer on commercial silica and subsequent pyrolysis. Applying the optimal nanocatalyst, industrial bulk, substituted, and functionalized arenes as well as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are selectively hydrogenated to obtain cyclohexane-based compounds under industrially viable and scalable conditions. The applicability of this hydrogenation methodology is presented for the storage of H2 in liquid organic hydrogen carriers.

Racemic β-ylidenecycloalkanols were transformed into the cis-β-substituted cycloalkanols with high enantio- and diastereoselectivities through an isomerization-asymmetric hydrogenation sequence with the (4,4′-bi-1,3-benzodioxole)-5,5′-diylbis[di(3,5-xylyl)phosphine (DM-Segphos)/2-dimethylamino-1-phenylethylamine (DMAPEN)-ruthenium(II) catalyst; such transformation hardly proceeded by single-step asymmetric hydrogenation. The reaction was usually carried out with a substrate-to-catalyst molar ratio of 500 under 4 to 10 atm of H2 to afford the products in cis/trans ratio up to 99:1 and 98% ee. Mechanistic experiments suggested that this catalytic system reversibly formed two reactive species, types (I) and (II), through a ruthenacyclic amide intermediate. The amide complex and allylic alcohol reacted to afford the allylic alkoxide complex with partial or full removal of diamine (type (I)), and this type (I) complex catalyzed isomerization of the allylic alcohols into the racemic α-substituted ketones. The RuH2 complex with chelation of diamine (type (II)) formed by reaction of the amide complex and hydrogen promoted asymmetric hydrogenation of racemic α-substituted ketone into the stereocontrolled β-substituted cycloalkanols through dynamic kinetic resolution. (Figure presented.).

, (2019/03/21)
A series of piano-stool Ru (II) complexes (Ru1–7) bearing ethylenediamine with aryl and aliphatic groups were prepared and fully characterized by 1H, 13C, 19F and 31P NMR spectroscopy, FT-IR and elemental analysis. The crystal structures of Ru2–4 and Ru7 were determined by X-ray crystallography. They were successfully applied to the alpha(α)-alkylation of aliphatic and aromatic ketones with alcohols via the borrowing hydrogen strategy in mild reaction conditions within a short time. The catalytic system has a broad substrate scope, which allows the synthesis of alpha alkylated ketones with excellent yields. The electronic and steric effects of complexes on catalytic activity were analysed. The influence of the carbon chain length of the ligand on the alpha-alkylation reaction of ketones was also investigated. The catalytic cycle was also examined by 1H-NMR spectroscopy in d8-toluene.

Aldehydes and ketones are found to be hydrogenated to alcohols with hydrogen at atmospheric pressure under the catalysis with nickel nanoparticles. The reaction under study may be used as technologically available and cheap method for hydrogenation of carbonyl groups. It is found that in the case of aromatic ketones hydrogenolysis of C=O bond with partial hydrogenation of aromatic groups takes place.
