An iron-catalyzed aerobic oxidation of (alkyl)(aryl)azinylmethanes has been developed leading to tertiary alcohols in moderate to good yields. Hock rearrangement was identified as a major side reaction leading to a complex mixture of undesired products. Addition of thiourea sometimes allows inhibiting this side reaction and steers the reaction towards the desired products.

An efficient and practical decarboxylative double benzylation method for various 2-picolinic acids has been established by using a bimetallic catalytic system of palladium(II) chloride (PdCl2) and silver(I) oxide (Ag2O), which offered a variety of diarylmethane derivatives with moderate to good yields.

Palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions have become one of the most useful tools in modern organic chemistry. Current methods to achieve direct functionalization of sp3 C-H bonds of arenes and heteroarenes often employ substrates with appropriately placed directing groups to enable reactivity. Examples of intermolecular arylation methods of weakly acidic sp3 C-H bonds in the absence of directing groups, however, are still limited. We describe herein a study on the use of additives in Pd-catalyzed deprotonative-cross-coupling processes (DCCP) of sp3 C-H bonds of diarylmethanes with aryl bromides at room temperature. These studies resulted in development of four new efficient Pd-catalyzed DCCP using additives that enabled the generation of a range of sterically and electronically diverse aryl- and heteroaryl containing triarylmethanes in good to excellent yields. Additive identification and optimization of all reaction conditions (additive loading, solvent and temperature) were performed using high-throughput experimentation (HTE). The approach outlined herein is expected to be generalizable to other C-H functionalization reactions involving the deprotonation of weakly acidic C-H bonds. The Royal Society of Chemistry 2013.
Carbon-Skeletal Anionic and Radical Sigmatropic Rearrangements: Group Migratory Aptitudes as a Probe of Charge Type in the 1,2-Shifts of β-Phenyl-β-(2-pyridyl)- and β-Phenyl-β-(4-pyridyl)ethyl Systems

In order to probe the occurrence and relative ease of carbon-skeletal sigmatropic rearrangements of the free-radical, anionic, or radical-anionic type, derivatives of the β,β-diphenyl-β-(2-pyridyl)- and the β,β-diphenyl-β-(4-pyridyl)ethane systems, PyPh2CCH2E (A), were treated with reagents expected to generate radical or anionic sites.The ensuing, competitive -shifts of the phenyl and/or pyridyl groups were then used as a diagnostic sign of the mechanism of rearrangement.Both the treatment of A (E = p-tolyl) with MeLi or KH and the reaction of A (E = Cl) with sodium or lithium in donor solvents caused an exclusive -pyridyl shift.Gas chromatographic and mass spectral analyses were able to place the limit of any -phenyl shift as under 0.5percent.In such alkali metal reactions, persistent aromatic radical-anions were detected by ESR spectroscopy until the completion of the reaction.Such signals and the significant amounts of carbon-carbon bond cleavage products support the formation of pyridyl radical-anions as precursors for such cleavages and -pyridyl rearrangements.That such radical-anions could lead to spiro intermediates that promote the -pyridyl migrations wins corroboration from the finding that the methiodide of 1-chloro-2-methyl-2-(4-pyridyl)propane can be reduced with lithium in THF to yield the isolable 1,1,6-trimethyl-6-azaspiroocta-4,7-diene.The same two chlorides of A responded differently under other rearrangement conditions: (1) in preparing such chlorides from the corresponding alcohols, PyPh2CCH2OH, with thionyl chloride, the 4-pyridyl isomer underwent a Wagner-Meerwein rearrangement with exclusive -phenyl migration; the 2 isomer underwent normal displacement of OH by Cl; (2) toward the free-radical reducing agent, (n-Bu)3SnH, the 2-chloro isomer underwent both -phenyl and -pyridyl shifts, while the 4-chloro isomer underwent neither reduction nor rearrangement; it simply induced the formation of hexa-n-butylditin.A similar reducing action was observed with bis(1,5-cyclooctadiene)nickel.These observations are analyzed with the aid of Hueckel molecular orbital theory and the rearrangements observed with reducing agents are assessed in terms of three types of mechanisms: (1) authentic -anionic shifts; (2) authentic -free-radical shifts; and (3) competing electron transfer from the metal to the chloride center or from the metal to the pyridyl ring, which permits anionic rearrangements to compete with rearrangements mediated by radical-anion or dianions, which latter processes form the crucial spiro intermediate by intramolecular nucleophilic displacement on the CH2Cl group.
