B(C6F5)3-catalyzed tandem protonation/deuteration and reduction of: In situ -formed enamines

A highly efficient B(C6F5)3-catalyzed tandem protonation/deuteration and reduction of in situ-formed enamines in the presence of water and pinacolborane was developed. Regioselective β-deuteration of tertiary amines was achieved with high chemo- and regioselectivity. D2O was used as a readily available and cheap source of deuterium. Mechanistic studies indicated that B(C6F5)3 could activate water to promote the protonation and reduction of enamines. This journal is

One-Pot Preparation of C1-Homologated Aliphatic Nitriles from Aldehydes through a Wittig Reaction under Metal-Cyanide-Free Conditions

A one-pot protocol to obtain C1-homologated aliphatic nitriles was achieved by treating aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes with the (methoxymethyl)triphenylphosphonium ylide followed by hydrolysis of the resulting methyl vinyl ethers with pTsOH (Ts = para-toluenesulfonyl) and treatment with molecular iodine and aqueous ammonia under metal cyanide free conditions. Neopentyl-type nitriles, which could not be obtained by conventional methods that involved conversion of the neopentyl alcohol into a tosylate and treatment with metal cyanide, were successfully obtained by using the present method.

Broad-spectrum catalysts for the ambient temperature anti-Markovnikov hydration of alkynes

Anti-Markovnikov alkyne hydration provides a valuable route to aldehydes. Half-sandwich ruthenium complexes ligated by 5,5′-bis(trifluoromethyl)-2, 2′-bipyridine are remarkably active for this transformation. In the presence of 2 mol % metal, a wide range of functionalized aliphatic and aromatic alkynes are hydrated in high yield at ambient temperature. Alkyne hydration: Half-sandwich ruthenium complexes derived from 5,5′-bis(trifluoromethyl)- 2,2′-bipyridine show a high activity for the anti-Markovnikov hydration of terminal alkynes (see picture). A wide array of alkynes are efficiently hydrated to aldehydes using 2 mol % metal loadings at 25 °C within 8-24 h.
