Although hydroacylation is a very useful reaction for producing ketones from aldehydes with 100% atom efficiency, classical Rh-catalyzed hydroacylation presents several problems, including the need for transition metal catalysts, unwanted decarbonylation of aldehydes, and difficulty in regioselectivity control. However, formal hydroacylation utilizing the nucleophilicity of terminal alkynes can avoid these problems. In this work, we have achieved transition-metal-free formal hydroacylation of terminal alkynes using an Mg3Al-CO3-layered double hydroxide as a heterogeneous catalyst. This system was applicable to the efficient synthesis of α,β-unsaturated ketones with various substituents, and the catalyst can be reused without a significant loss of catalytic performance.

Upon 337.1-nm laser excitation, chalcone epoxides containing donor/acceptor substituents at para positions of phenyl and benzoyl groups undergo triplet-mediated ring opening to carbonyl ylides observable by broad absorption spectra (λmaxY=520-600 nm, εmaxY (13-27) x 103 M-1 cm-1 in benzene) on a microsecond time scale (τY=0.4-24 μs in benzene).The short-lived, carbonyl-type triplets (τT=0.8-100 ns) giving rise to ylides are monitored in some cases by direct transient absorption on a nanosecond time scale and, for all systems, are probed by quenching studies with 1-methylnaphthalene and 2,5-dimethyl-2,4-hexadiene.Substituent effects on ylide absorption maxima, ylide decay kinetics, reactivity toward dipolarophiles and methanol, and precursor triplet lifetimes are discussed in the light of charge delocalization in dipolar structures, variation in HOMO/LUMO energies, complexity of thermal processes contributing to ylide decay, and energy gap between an ylide triplet and its triplet carbonyl precursor (ring closed).
