A process for the direct hydrofluoromethylation of alkenes is reported for the first time. This straighforward silyl radical-mediated reaction utilises CH2FI as a non-ozone depleting reagent, traditionally used in electrophilic, nucleophilic and carbene-type chemistry, but not as a CH2F radical source. By circumventing the challenges associated with the high reduction potential of CH2FI being closer to CH3I than CF3I, and harnessing instead the favourable bond dissociation energy of the C-I bond, we demonstrate that feedstock electron-deficient alkenes are converted into products resulting from net hydrofluoromethylation with the intervention of (Me3Si)3SiH under blue LED activation. This deceptively simple yet powerful methodology was extended to a range of (halo)methyl radical precursors including ICH2I, ICH2Br, ICH2Cl, and CHBr2F, as well as CH3I itself; this latter reagent therefore enables direct hydromethylation. This versatile chemistry was applied to18F-,13C-, and D-labelled reagents as well as complex biologically relevant alkenes, providing facile access to more than fifty products for applications in medicinal chemistry and positron emission tomography.

Herein, a photocatalytic Giese-type reaction with alkylsilicates bearing C,O-bidentate ligands as stable alkyl radical precursors has been reported. The alkylsilicates were prepared in one step from organometallic reagents. Not only primary, secondary, and tertiary alkyl radicals, but also elusive methyl radicals, could be generated by using the present reaction system. The generated radicals were trapped by electron-deficient olefins bearing various functional groups to give the desired alkyl adducts. The silicon byproduct can be recovered after the photoreaction. The radical generation process was investigated by theoretical calculations, which provided an insight into the facile generation of methyl radicals from methylsilicate bearing C,O-bidentate ligands.

Two cis-β-MnIIISALPN catalysts were synthesised and tested in the Mukaiyama-Isayama hydration of α,β-unsaturated esters. The MnIIIEtOSALPN(acac) complex 7 is the most active and catalyses hydration with little or no detectable undesired alkene reduction. This catalyst is superior for alkene hydration compared to the originally reported Mn(dpm)3 catalyst.

α,β-Unsaturated esters have been employed as substrates in iridium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation. Full conversions and good to excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99 % ee) were obtained for a broad range of substrates with both aromatic- and aliphatic substituents on the prochiral carbon. The hydrogenated products are highly useful as building blocks in the synthesis of a variety of natural products and pharmaceuticals. Asymmetric hydrogenation: A variety of α,β-unsaturated esters were hydrogenated with high enantioselectivities (see scheme). The hydrogenated products have been used in synthetic transformations as well as in formal total syntheses. Copyright
Highly chemoselective hydrogenation method using novel finely dispersed palladium catalyst on silk-fibroin: Its preparation and activity
Ikawa, Takashi,Sajiki, Hironao,Hirota, Kosaku
, p. 2217 - 2231 (2007/10/03)
A palladium-fibroin complex (Pd/Fib) was prepared by soaking silk-fibroin in MeOH solution of Pd(OAc)2 for 2 days (under Ar atmosphere) - 4 days (under air). Pd(OAc)2 was gradually absorbed by fibroin and the rapid reduction of fibroin conjugated Pd(OAc)2 proceeded with MeOH as a reductant at room temperature to be the Pd(0) complex. Pd/Fib catalyzed chemoselective hydrogenation of acetylenes, olefins and azides in the presence of aromatic ketones and aldehydes, halides, N-Cbz protective groups and benzyl esters which are readily hydrogenated using Pd/C or Pd/C(en) as a catalyst.
Markedly chemoselective hydrogenation with retention of benzyl ester and N-Cbz functions using a heterogeneous Pd-fibroin catalyst

, p. 8437 - 8439 (2007/10/03)
The chemoselective catalytic hydrogenation of acetylene, olefin and azido derivatives bearing benzyl ester and N-Cbz functionalities using a Pd-fibroin (Pd/Fib) catalyst was investigated. Perfect selectivity was accomplished, and the benzyl ester and N-Cbz functionalities are tolerated under the reaction conditions.
