Herein, we describe an isolable, air-stable, homogeneous, nickel catalyst that performs dehydrogenative cross-coupling reaction between secondary and primary alcohols to result α-alkylated ketone products selectively. The sequence of steps involve in this one-pot reaction is dehydrogenation of both alcohols, condensation between the ketone and the aldehyde, and hydrogenation of the in situ-generated α,β-unsaturated ketone. Preliminary mechanistic investigation hints a radical mechanism following borrowing hydrogen reaction. (Figure presented.).

Prochiral racemic allylic alcohols are converted to enantioenriched chiral alcohols bearing adjacent stereocenters catalyzed by a diamine diphosphine Ru complex in the presence of tBuOK. The protocol features a broad substrate scope (56 examples) and high

Common and non-toxic aldehydes are proposed as reagents for alkylation of ketones instead of carcinogenic alkyl halides. The developed reductive alkylation reaction proceeds in the presence of the commercially available ruthenium catalyst [(cymene)RuCl2]2 (as low as 250 ppm) and carbon monoxide as the reducing agent. The reaction works well for a broad substrate scope, including aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes and ketones. It can be carried out without a solvent and often gives nearly quantitative yields of the products. This straightforward and cost-effective method is promising not only for laboratory application but also for industry, which produces carbon monoxide as a large-scale waste product.

(Chemical Equation Presented) Catalytic variant: Allyl silanes and silyl enol ethers 1 are good substrates for the catalytic highly enantioselective fluorodesilylation using a combination of a biscinchona alkaloid, N-fluorobenzenesulfonimide (NFSI), and base (see scheme). Pharmaceutically attractive 3-aryl-3-fluorooxindoles such as 3 can also be synthesized with high enantioselectivity.
