A scalable, one-pot, enantioselective catalytic synthesis of 2-pyrazolines from beta-substituted enones and hydrazines is described. Pivoting on a two-stage catalytic Michael addition/condensation strategy, the use of an aldehyde to generate a suitable hydrazone derivative of the hydrazine was found to be key for curtailing background reactivity and tuning the catalyst-controlled enantioselectivity. The new synthetic method is easy to perform, uses a new and readily prepared cinchona-derived bifunctional catalyst, is broad in scope, and tolerates a range of functionalities with high enantioselectivity (up to >99:1 e.r.). The significant scalability of this methodology was demonstrated with the synthesis of more than 80 grams of a pyrazoline product with 89 % catalyst recovery.

A general method for the synthesis of α,β-unsaturated esters, ketones, and nitriles is successfully achieved by a one-pot copper-catalyzed oxidation with O 2 in air as oxidant. The solvent mixture of acetonitrile and formamide (1:1) is optimized to ensure the oxidation of alcohols, deprotonation of phosphonium salt, and Wittig reaction occur efficiently in one pot. A broad range of substrates has been explored for this process, including three electron-withdrawing group (CO 2 Et, COPh, CN) functionalized phosphonium salts. They reacted not only with benzylic and heteroaromatic alcohols, but also with aliphatic alcohols, forming the corresponding α,β-unsaturated esters, ketones, and nitriles in moderate to excellent yields.

Photochemical synthesis of highly functionalized cyclopropyl ketones

A series of di- and trisubstituted cyclopropyl ketones 11 were prepared by irradiation of ketones 3 and 5, which bear a leaving group adjacent to the carbonyl C-atom. The required ketones 3 could be easily synthesized either by functionalization of ketones 1 with a hypervalent iodine reagent, 2, or by O-sulfonylation of α-hydroxy ketones 7. The nitrates 5 were obtained by treatment of the corresponding α-bromo ketones with AgNO3. The irradiation of 3 and 5 must be performed in the presence of an acid scavenger (1-methyl-1H-imidazole) to obtain the cyclopropanes 11 in good yields. The synthetic efficiency of the method was, among other things, demonstrated by the preparation of a highly strained bicyclo[2.1.0]pentane 11i in good yield. The mechanism of the photochemical cyclization was investigated by means of photokinetic measurements, as well as by quantum-chemical calculations. It was shown that the presence of the leaving group substantially influences all steps of the photochemical reaction cascade. The X-ray crystal structures of 11j and exo-11k were also determined.
