To pursue a highly regioselective and efficient reductive Heck reaction, a series of moisture-and air-stable α-diimine palladium precatalysts were rationally designed, readily synthesized, and fully characterized. The relationship between the structures of the palladium complexes and the catalytic properties was investigated. It was revealed that the"bulky-yet-flexible"palladium complexes allowed highly anti-Markovnikov-selective hydroarylation of alkenes with (hetero)aryl bromides under aerobic conditions. Further synthetic application of the present protocol could provide rapid and straightforward access to functional and biologically active molecules.

A one-pot electrochemical nickel-catalyzed decarboxylative sp2-sp3 cross-coupling reaction has been developed using redox-active esters prepared in situ from alkyl carboxylates and N-hydroxyphthalimide tetramethyluronium hexafluorophosphate (PITU). This undivided cell one-pot method enables C-C bond formation using inexpensive, benchtop-stable reagents with isolated yields up to 95% with good functional group tolerance, which includes nitrile, ketone, ester, alkene and selectivity over other aromatic halogens.

We have developed a nickel-catalyzed hydroarylation of alkenes using aryl halides as coupling partners. Excellent anti-Markovnikov selectivity is achieved with aryl-substituted alkenes and enol ethers. We also show that hydroarylation occurs with alkyl substituted alkenes to yield linear products. Preliminary examination of the reaction mechanism suggests irreversible hydrometallation as the selectivity determining step of the hydroarylation.

A method to directly arylate toluene derivatives with aryl bromides to generate diarylmethanes, which are important building blocks in drug discovery, is described. In this method, KN(SiMe3)2 in combination with a (NIXANTPHOS)Pd catalyst accomplished the deprotonative activation of toluene derivatives to permit cross-coupling with aryl bromides. Good to excellent yields are obtained with a range of electron-rich to neutral aryl bromides. Both electron-rich and electron-poor toluene derivatives are well tolerated, and even 2-chlorotoluene performs well, providing a platform for introduction of additional functionalization. This discovery hinges on the use of a main group metal to activate toluene for deprotonation by means of a cation-π interaction, which is secured by a bimetallic K(NIXANTPHOS)Pd assembly. Mechanistic and computational studies support acidification of toluene derivatives by the K+-cation- π interaction, which may prove pertinent in the development of other, new reaction systems.

A copper/aniline catalyst system enables the radical arylation of styrenes using aryl iodides mediated by zinc in water. This transformation provides an efficient synthetic methodology for the convenient synthesis of diarylethane.

Diphenylacetylenes can be reduced to the corresponding diphenylethanes (2) in water in excellent yield using Al powder and Pd/C at 60?°C for 3?h in a sealed tube. In addition, the complete reduction of both aromatic rings required 80?°C for 15?h with Al powder in the presence of Pt/C. However, the nature of hydrogenated product formed was found to be strongly influenced by the reaction temperature, time, volume of water and the amount of catalyst being employed.
Unsurpassed cage effect for the photolysis of dibenzyl ketones in water-soluble dendrimers

Amphiphilic water-soluble poly(alkyl aryl ether) dendrimers Gn (n = 1-3) with charge-neutral tetraethylene glycol monomethyl ethers at their periphery were synthesized as microreactors to control the photochemical reactions of dibenzyl ketone derivatives in aqueous solutions. Photophysical studies demonstrated that Gn can encapsulate organic molecules and provide a hydrophobic microenvironment. The product distribution of photolysis of dibenzyl ketone derivatives can be successfully controlled by encapsulating the substrates within dendrimers, and an unsurpassed cage effect of 1.00 is reached in high generation dendrimers, revealing that a thick and compact "shell" was formed at the periphery of the dendrimers. The cage effect is also significantly influenced by the substituent at the para-position of the guest molecules. The higher generation dendrimers exhibit a better confined microenvironment and the aggregates possess more compact cavities to "lock" the guests than the corresponding unimolecular dendrimers. After photolysis, the separation of products can be easily achieved by extracting from the dendrimer solutions and the dendrimers are simply recovered and reused.

We have reexamined the reactions of tert-butyl radicals with toluenes and have obtained a ρ value of 0.49 +/- 0.04 at 80 deg C.The new, independent system involves the quantification of all of the principal products from the reaction of tert-butyl radicals with mixtures of toluene and substituted toluene.Five major products contain benzyl fragments and are formed in significant yields: two symmetrical bibenzyls, the cross bibenzyl, and the two neopentylbenzenes that result from combination of tert-butyl and the two benzyl radicals.Attack on the side chain is a major reaction of free tert-butyl radicals and is the only significant reaction that they undergo other than cage and termination reactions. tert-Butyl radicals do not add to the ring of toluenes.Data on the relative rates of addition to benzenes and hydrogen abstraction from toluenes are collected for a series of radicals including hydrogen atoms; methyl, isopropyl, and tert-butyl radicals; and p-nitrophenyl, p-bromophenyl, and phenyl radicals.The data demonstrate that more electrophilic radicals have a larger tendency to add to rings whereas more nucleophilic radicals have a larger tendency to abstract benzylic hydrogens.
