As reported by Scheidt and Bode in 2005, sterically nonencumbered α,β-enals are readily converted to saturated esters in the presence of alcohols and N-heterocyclic carbene catalysts, e.g., benzimidazolylidenes or triazolylidenes. However, substituents at the α- or β-position of the α,β-enal substrate are typically not tolerated, thus severely limiting the substrate spectrum. On the basis of our earlier mechanistic studies, a set of N-Mes- or N-Dipp-substituted 1,2,4-triazolium salts were synthesized and evaluated as (pre)catalysts in the redox esterification of various α- or β-substituted enals. In particular the 1,4-bis-Mes/Dipp-1,2,4-triazolylidenes overcome the above limitations and efficiently catalyze the redox esterification of a whole series of α/β-substituted enals hitherto not amenable to NHC-catalyzed transformations. The synthetic value of 1,4-bis-Mes/Dipp-1,2,4-triazolylidenes is further demonstrated by the one-step bicyclization of 10-oxocitral to (racemic) nepetalactone in diastereomerically pure form.

The phosphine ligand mediated palladium catalyzed alkoxycarbonylation of alkenes was investigated with the objective of attaining good linear selectivity for the ester. The effect of various parameters such as solvents, additives, palladium precursors, CO pressures, and alkenes of various structural complexities were examined. The results revealed the importance of using a Lewis acid such as SnCl2 or Ti(OiPr)4 in combination with a monodentate ligand such CYTOP 292 or P(p-anisyl)3 to enhance the regioselectivity for the linear isomers in the range of 70-96%.
Indium(III) chloride-sodium borohydride system: A convenient radical reagent for an alternative to tributyltin hydride system

The indium hydride generated from NaBH4 and InCl3, is a promising candidate of alternative to Bu3SnH. In particular, the catalytic performance of InCl3 in the dehalogenation of alkyl and aryl halides, intramolecular cyclization and intermolecular coupling reaction are noteworthy. Copyright
