Chemo- and Regioselective Functionalization of Polyols through Catalytic C(sp3)-C(sp3) Kumada-Type Coupling of Cyclic Sulfate Esters
Ramírez-Contreras, Rodrigo,Morandi, Bill

This contribution describes a copper-catalyzed, C(sp3)-C(sp3) cross-coupling reaction of cyclic sulfate esters, a distinct class of electrophilic derivatives of polyols, with alkyl Grignard reagents to afford functionalized alcohol products in good yields. The method is operationally simple and highlights the potential of cyclic sulfate esters as highly reactive substrates in catalytic, chemoselective polyol transformations.
Base-Metal-Catalyzed Regiodivergent Alkene Hydrosilylations

A complementary set of base metal catalysts has been developed for regiodivergent alkene hydrosilylations: iron complexes of phosphine-iminopyridine are selective for anti-Markovnikov hydrosilylations (linear/branched up to >99:1), while the cobalt complexes bearing the same type of ligands provide an unprecedented high level of Markovnikov selectivity (branched/linear up to >99:1). Both systems exhibit high efficiency and wide functional group tolerance. Regiodivergent alkene hydrosilylation has been accomplished with high efficiency using a newly developed set of complementary base metal catalyst systems. An inversion of regioselectivity (linear/branched) from >99:1 to 1:99 is obtained when the iron version of the catalyst is exchanged for a cobalt-containing analogue.

The first example of a practical and direct trifluoromethylthiolation reaction of unactivated aliphatic C-H bonds employs a silver-based reagent. The reaction is operationally simple, scalable, and proceeds under aqueous conditions in air. Furthermore, its broad scope and good functional-group compatibility were demonstrated by applying this method to the selective trifluoromethylthiolation of natural products and natural-product derivatives.
6,6′-Dihydroxy terpyridine: A proton-responsive bifunctional ligand and its application in catalytic transfer hydrogenation of ketones
Moore, Cameron M.,Szymczak, Nathaniel K.

The ligand 6,6′-dihydroxy terpyridine (dhtp) is presented as a bifunctional ligand capable of directing proton transfer events with metal-coordinated substrates. Solid-state analysis of a Ru(ii)-dhtp complex reveals directed hydrogen-bonding interactions of the hydroxyl groups of dhtp with a Ru-bound chloride ligand. The utility of dhtp was demonstrated by chemoselective transfer hydrogenation of ketones.
Lanthanide replacement in organic synthesis: Luche-type reduction of α,β-unsaturated ketones in the presence of calcium triflate

Development of a calcium-mediated regioselective 1,2-reduction of challenging α,β-unsaturated ketones, such as 2-cyclopententone, is reported. The corresponding allylic alcohols are obtained in very good regioselectivities using Ca(OTf)2 and NaBH4. Furthermore, we have shown that our method can stereoselectively reduce aziridinyl ketones.

The lipase B from Candida antarctica (Novozym 435, CALB) efficiently catalyzed the kinetic resolution of some aliphatic secondary alcohols: (±)-4-methylpentan- 2-ol (1), (±)-5-methylhexan-2-ol (3), (±)-octan-2-ol (4), (±)-heptan-3-ol (5) and (±)-oct-1- en-3-ol (6). The lipase showed excellent enantioselectivities in the transesterifications of racemic aliphatic secondary alcohols producing the enantiopure alcohols (>99% ee) and acetates (>99% ee) with good yields. Kinetic resolution of rac-alcohols was successfully achieved with CALB lipase using simple conditions, vinyl acetate as acylating agent, and hexane as non-polar solvent.

Facile deoxygenation of dicarbonyl compounds using a samarium diiodide-additive system
Kamochi, Yasuko,Kudo, Tadahiro,Masuda, Toshinobu,Takadate, Akira
, p. 1017 - 1020 (2007/10/03)
The reduction of α- and β-dicarbonyl compounds was investigated with samarium diiodide in the presence of additive. Diketones and ketocarboxylic acids were easily reduced at room temperature to give the mono-alcohols in good to excellent yield, and ketoester afforded the saturated ester as the major product in moderate yield. These reductions containing the reductive deoxygenation can be rapidly performed under the facile and mild conditions by this method.

, (2008/06/13)
An R-configuration or S-configuration optically active alcohol of the general formula (1), CH3C*H(OH)(CH2)mCH(CnH2n+1)2wherein C* is an asymmetric carbon atom, m is an integer of 0 to 3, and n is an integer of 1 to 3; and a process for the production thereof, which comprises asymmetrically trans-esterifying a corresponding racemic alcohol to conduct the optical resolution. This is preferably carried out in the presence of a lipase extracted from Candida antarciaas catalyst.
Intramolecular H-Transfer Reactions During the Decomposition of Alkylhydroperoxides in Hydrocarbons as the Solvents
Jinsheng, Li,Pritzkow, Wilhelm,Voerckel, Volkmar
, p. 43 - 52 (2007/10/02)
Eight defined primary and secondary alkylhydroperoxides were decomposed in n-alkanes as the solvent, mostly in the presence of manganese stearate.In all cases the corresponding alcohols and carbonyl compounds were formed as the main products with yields of 60-90percent.Besides, difunctional products were formed by an intramolecular H-transfer in the alkoxy radicals corresponding to the starting hydroperoxides.Products possibly formed by an intramolecular H-transfer in the corresponding alkylperoxy radical could be found only in the case of 4-methyl-2-hydroperoxy pentane.The amount of products formed by intramolecular H-transfer depended on the nature of the C-H bond in δ-position to the original hydroperoxy group and lay between 4percent (primary C-H in the case of 4-hydroperoxy heptane) and 13percent (tertiary C-H in the case of 2-hydroperoxy-5-methyl hexane) with respect to the starting hydroperoxide.The amount of products formed by oxidative attack of the alkoxy and alkylperoxy radicals at the normal paraffins used as the solvents was unexpectedly low (always less than 10percent with respect to the starting hydroperoxide).An increment system is proposed for the calculation of 13C-nmr shifts in alkyl hydroperoxides.
