Arylboronic Acid Catalyzed C-Alkylation and Allylation Reactions Using Benzylic Alcohols

The arylboronic acid catalyzed dehydrative C-alkylation of 1,3-diketones and 1,3-ketoesters using secondary benzylic alcohols as the electrophile is reported, forming new C-C bonds (19 examples, up to 98% yield) with the release of water as the only byproduct. The process is also applicable to the allylation of benzylic alcohols using allyltrimethylsilane as the nucleophile (12 examples, up to 96% yield).

Catalytic Asymmetric Transfer Hydrogenation of trans-Chalcone Derivatives Using BINOL-derived Boro-phosphates

Chiral phosphoric-acid-catalyzed asymmetric reductions of trans-chalcones have been investigated in this work. A BINOL-derived boro-phosphate-catalyzed asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of the carbon-carbon double bond of trans-chalcone derivatives employing borane as a hydride source was realized. This methodology provides a convenient procedure to access chiral dihydrochalone derivatives in high yields and with high enantioselectivities under mild conditions.

Ketone Synthesis by Direct, Orthogonal Chemoselective Hydroacylation of Alkenes with Amides: Use of Alkenes as Surrogates of Alkyl Carbanions

Direct functionalization of alkenes and direct transformation of carboxamides are two exciting areas that have attracted considerable attention in recent years. We report herein that secondary amides, the least reactive derivatives of carbonyl compounds, upon activated with triflic anhydride, can serve as effective hydroacylating reagents in partner with alkenes to yield ketones at ambient temperature. The method was applied to the one-step synthesis of racemic dihydro-ar-turmerone. In this method, alkenes serve as surrogates of organometallic reagents, which allows the orthogonal chemoselective reactions. The ready availability of many olefins such as camphene and norbornene permits one-step ketone synthesis that would require several steps by conventional methods.

Electronic and Steric Tuning of an Atropisomeric Disulfoxide Ligand Motif and Its Use in the Rh(I)-Catalyzed Addition Reactions of Boronic Acids to a Wide Range of Acceptors

A novel chiral disulfoxide ligand pair bearing fluorine atoms at the 6 and 6′ position of its atropisomeric backbone, (M,S,S)- and (P,S,S)-p-Tol-6F-BIPHESO, was synthesized. Complexation to a rhodium(I) precursor gave rise to μ-Cl- and μ-OH-bridged rhodiu

Unprecedented alkylation of silicon enolates with alcohols via carbenium ion formations catalyzed by tin hydroxide-embedded montmorillonite

The solid acid, tin hydroxide-embedded montmorillonite, catalyzes the unprecedented alkylation of various silicon enolates with primary, secondary and tertiary benzylic alcohols as well as secondary allylic alcohols. The acid catalysis of Sn-Mont was not only higher than that of the other ion-exchanged montmorillonites (M-Mont; M?=?H, Ti, Fe and Al), but also higher than that of the typical homogeneous acid catalysts such as BF3·OEt2, TMSOTf and TfOH.

Catalytic Carbocation Generation Enabled by the Mesolytic Cleavage of Alkoxyamine Radical Cations

A new catalytic method is described to access carbocation intermediates via the mesolytic cleavage of alkoxyamine radical cations. In this process, electron transfer between an excited state oxidant and a TEMPO-derived alkoxyamine substrate gives rise to a radical cation with a remarkably weak C?O bond. Spontaneous scission results in the formation of the stable nitroxyl radical TEMPO.as well as a reactive carbocation intermediate that can be intercepted by a wide range of nucleophiles. Notably, this process occurs under neutral conditions and at comparatively mild potentials, enabling catalytic cation generation in the presence of both acid sensitive and easily oxidized nucleophilic partners.

Palladium(II) Acetate Catalyzed Reductive Heck Reaction of Enones; A Practical Approach

A surprisingly practical Pd(OAc)2 or Pd(TFA)2-catalyzed reductive Heck reaction between aryl iodides and α,β-unsaturated ketones is described using N,N-diisopropylethylamine (DIPEA, Hünigs base) as the reductant. In general, 1 mol % of Pd(OAc)2 is sufficient to afford good yields using electron-rich or halogen-substituted aryl iodides. Electron-deficient aryl iodides preferentially give homocoupling. Enones containing aryl or bulky substituents on the β-carbon react smoothly, producing mainly reductive Heck product, whereas enones with alkyl substituents on the β-carbon afford a mixture of reductive Heck and Heck product. Deuterium labeling experiments show that the reaction is a bona fide reductive Heck reaction and exclude a Heck reaction-conjugate reduction cascade. Deeply DIPEA about...

Cyclopentanone as a cation-stabilizing electron-pair donor in the calcium-catalyzed intermolecular carbohydroxylation of alkynes

Although they have been used as reactivity-controlling additives in cationic polymerizations for decades, Lewis basic electron pair donor (ED) compounds were never used for the stabilization of cationic intermediates in transformations of small molecules. As such an ED, cyclopentanone proved highly efficient for the stabilization of allyl and vinyl cations in combination with our calcium-based catalyst system. Therefore, the first general transition-metal-free intermolecular carbohydroxylation of alkynes with allyl and propargyl alcohols was realized.

Synthesis of Substituted Aryl Ketones by Addition of Alcohols to Alkynes Using Amberlyst-15/Ionic Liquid as a Recyclable Catalytic System

A highly efficient protocol for the synthesis of substituted aryl ketones by using Amberlyst-15 immobilized in [Bmim][PF6] ionic liquid has been firstly developed. The present protocol works under metal-free, solvent-free, mild reaction conditions with 100% atom efficiency. The various aryl ketones were obtained in good to excellent yields. The developed catalytic system was recycled efficiently up to five cycles without significant loss in catalytic activity.

Chemo- and diastereoselective Bi(OTf)3-catalyzed benzylation of silyl nucleophiles

The direct alkylation of silyl enol ethers with para-methoxybenzylic alcohols or their corresponding acetates was efficiently catalyzed by Bi(OTf)3 in CH3NO2 as the solvent. The reaction provided the α-benzylated carbonyl
