We show that the dirhodium(II) tetraamidinate complex Rh2(Msip)4 efficiently catalyzes the oxidation of activated secondary alcohols at only 0.1 mol% loading. In this approach, we oxidized various benzylic, allylic and propargylic alcohols to the corresponding carbonyl compounds under mild aqueous conditions using the inexpensive oxidant T-HYDRO (70 wt% aqueous tert-butyl hydroperoxide).

Activation of the aci-form of nitromethane using Lewis acids for the attack of carbon nucleophiles was studied. 1,3-Dicarbonyl compounds in the presence of catalytic amounts of AuCl3 or Cu(OTf)2 in nitromethane solvent could be converted into methylene-bridged bis-1,3-dicarbonyl compounds.
