Herein, we report a ruthenium-catalyzed redox-neutral α-alkylation of unsaturated alcohols based on a synergistic relay process involving olefin isomerization (chain walking) and umpolung hydrazone addition, which takes advantage of the interaction between the two rather inefficient individual reaction steps to enable an efficient overall process. This transformation shows the compatibility of hydrazone-type “carbanions” and active protons in a one-pot reaction, and at the same time achieves the first Grignard-type nucleophilic addition using olefinic alcohols as latent carbonyl groups, providing a higher yield of the corresponding secondary alcohol than the classical hydrazone addition to aldehydes does. A broad scope of unsaturated alcohols and hydrazones, including some complex structures, can be successfully employed in this reaction, which shows the versatility of this approach and its suitability as an alternative, efficient means for the generation of secondary and tertiary alcohols.

We present a redox-neutral method for the photocatalytic generation of carbanions. Benzylic carboxylates are photooxidized by single electron transfer; immediate CO2 extrusion and reduction of the in situ formed radical yields a carbanion capable of reacting with aliphatic aldehydes as electrophiles giving the Grignard analogous reaction product.

Catalytic enantioselective conjunctive cross-coupling between 9-BBN borate complexes and aryl electrophiles can be accomplished with Ni salts in the presence of a chiral diamine ligand. The reactions furnish chiral 9-BBN derivatives in an enantioselective fashion and these are converted to chiral alcohols and amines, or engaged in other stereospecific C?C bond forming reactions.
Reagent-controlled asymmetric homologation of boronic esters by enantioenriched main-group chiral carbenoids

Putative enantioenriched carbenoid species, (R)-1-chloro-2- phenylethylmagnesium chloride (9) and (S)-1-chloro-2-phenylethyllithium (26), generated in situ by sulfoxide ligand exchange from (-)-(Rs,R)-1- chloro-2-phenylethyl p-tolyl sulfoxide (8), effected the stereocontrolled homologation of boronic esters. sec-Alcohols derived from the product boronates by oxidation with basic hydrogen peroxide exhibited % ee closely approaching that of sulfoxide 8 in examples employing Li-carbenoid 26.

Methyl 3-oxo-4-phenylbutanoate (6) reacts with alkyl halides (1a-g) in the presence of NaH/benzene to furnish alkylated β-keto esters (2a-g).Hydrolysis of 2a-g gives benzyl ketones (3a-g), which on reduction with sodium borohydride give the homobenzylic alcohols (4a-g).The alcohols (4a-g) are readily fragmented to aldehydes (5a-g) on heating with lead tetraacetate/iodine.

Earlier work on the photochemistry of α-sulfonyloxyketones uncovered their propensity to form the corresponding α-ketocarbonium ions on photolysis.Typical reactions such as intramolecular cyclizations, carbonium ion rearrangements, and solvent trapping were found.This paper describes an attempt to extend this reaction to a general synthetic technique for polyene cyclizations.During the course of this work two other major reaction pathways were found.The first is an α-keto carbonium ion to acylium ion rearrangement and the second is a photoreduction-elimination process that leads to an α-keto radical rather than the corresponding cation.
