A highly regio- and stereoselective sulfonylation of allenes was developed that provided direct access to α, β-substituted unsaturated sulfone. By means of visible-light photoredox catalysis, the free radicals produced by p-toluenesulfonic acid reacted with multisubstituted allenes to obtain Markovnikov-type vinyl sulfones with Ru(bpy)3Cl2 or Rhodamine B as photocatalyst. The yield of this reaction could reach up to 91%. A series of unsaturated sulfones would be used for further transformation to some valuable compounds.

We report herein the synthesis of functionalized styrenes via palladium-catalyzed Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling reaction between aryl ketone derivatives and potassium vinyltrifluoroborate. The employment of pyridine-oxazoline ligand was the key to the cleavage of unstrained C[sbnd]C bond. A variety of functional groups and biologically important moleculars were well tolerated. The orthogonal Suzuki–Miyaura coupling demonstrated the synthetic practicability.

Development of a simple, effective, and practical method for (Z)-selective semihydrogenation of alkynes has been considered necessary for easy-to-access applications at organic laboratory scales. Herein, (Z)-selective semihydrogenation of alkynes was achieved using a copper nanocatalyst which was generatedin situsimply by adding ammonia borane to an ethanol solution of copper sulfate. Different types of alkynes including aryl-aryl, aryl-alkyl, and aliphatic alkynes were selectively reduced to (Z)-alkenes affording up to 99% isolated yield. The semihydrogenation of terminal alkynes to alkenes and gram-scale applications were also reported. In addition to eliminating catalyst preparation, the proposed approach is simple and practical and serves as a suitable alternative method to the conventional Lindlar catalyst.

Selective reduction strategies based on abundant-metal catalysts are very important in the production of chemicals. In this paper, a method for the electrochemical semihydrogenation and semideuteration of alkynes to form Z-alkenes was developed, using a simple nickel foam as catalyst and H3O+ or D3O+ as sources of hydrogen or deuterium. Good yields and excellent stereoselectivities (Z/E up to 20 : 1) were obtained under very mild reaction conditions. The reaction proceeded with terminal and nonterminal alkynes, and also with alkynes containing easily reducible functional groups, such as carbonyl groups, as well as aryl chlorides, bromides, and even iodides. The nickel-foam electrocatalyst could be recycled up to 14 times without any change in its catalytic properties.

The palladium azolate/carboxylate network (Pd-dmpzc) catalyses the selective hydrogenation of phenylacetylene to styrene in water. Under optimised conditions, at a Pd:NaBH4 ratio of 1:100 at 40 °C, Pd-dmpzc provided much better results than Pd(OAc)2 or PdCl2(CH3CN)2. Analysis of the recovered catalyst revealed the presence of different Pd2+ species and Pd0 NPs which contributed in the catalytic reaction.

In this work we have found, that the water-soluble cis,mer-[IrH2Cl(mtppms)3] (mtppms = monosulfonated triphenylphosphine Na-salt) was an excellent catalyst for reduction of terminal alkynes by hydrogen transfer from aqueous HCOOH/HCOONa mixtures. The conversions strongly depended on the pH of the reaction mixtures, and the highest rate of phenylacetylene transfer hydrogenation was observed at pH 3. The same dihydrido-Ir(III) complex actively catalyzed also the hydrogenation of terminal alkynes under mild conditions (T = 50 °C; P(H2) = 2–10 bar). Importantly, both the hydrogenation and hydrogen transfer reductions afforded exclusively the corresponding alkenes as products. Phenylacetylene and its substituted derivatives reacted smoothly, while benzylic and aliphatic alkynes were less reactive or did not react at all. It was also found, that an excess of the mtppms ligand inhibited the reaction. This was rationalized by formation of cisz-[IrH2(mtppms)4]+ which was also confirmed with multinuclear NMR spectroscopy. On the basis of the experimental results, a joint mechanism was suggested for both the hydrogenation and transfer hydrogenation pathways. The mechanism of hydrogenation and transfer hydrogenation of phenylacetylene was also studied by DFT calculations, which revealed several possibilities for protonation of a vinyl intermediate as the crucial step in formation of the styrene product.

Ag@Ag-Pdx core-shell nanocomposites with various Ag/Pd ratio were deposited on Ag nanoplates using a seed growth method. When physically loaded on C3N4, Ag@Ag-Pd0.077/C3N4 with optimized Ag/Pd ratio could accomplish high catalytic performance for the semi-hydrogenation of phenylacetylene as well as other aliphatic (both terminal and internal alkynes) alkynes and phenylcycloalkynes containing functional groups (such as ester, hydroxyl, ethyl groups) under room temperature and 1 atm H2. The alloying and ensemble effects are used to interpret such catalytic performance.

Transition metal-catalyzed semi-hydrogenation of alkynes has become one of the most popular methods for alkene synthesis. Specifically, the noble metal Pd, Rh, and Ru-based heterogeneous catalysts have been widely studied and utilized in both academia and industry. But the supported noble metal catalysts are generally suffering from leaching or aggregation during harsh reaction conditions, which resulting low catalytic reactivity and stability. Herein, we reported the facile synthesis of nitrogen doped graphene encapsulated Pd catalyst and its application in the chemo-selective semi-hydrogenation of alkynes. The graphene layer served as “bulletproof” over the active Pd Nano metal species, which was confirmed by X-ray and TEM analysis, enhanced the catalytic stability during the reaction conditions. The optimized prepared Pd@N/C catalyst showed excellent efficiency in semi-hydrogenation of phenylacetylene and other types of alkynes with un-functionalized or functionalized substituents, including the hydrogenation sensitive functional groups (NO2, ester, and halogen).

Both sulfur and fluorine play important roles in organic synthesis, the life science, and materials science. The direct incorporation of these elements into organic scaffolds with precise control of the oxidation states of sulfur moieties is of great significance. Herein, we report the highly selective electrochemical vicinal fluorosulfenylation and fluorosulfoxidation reactions of alkenes, which were enabled by the unique ability of electrochemistry to dial in the potentials on demand. Preliminary mechanistic investigations revealed that the fluorosulfenylation reaction proceeded through a radical-polar crossover mechanism involving a key episulfonium ion intermediate. Subsequent electrochemical oxidation of fluorosulfides to fluorosulfoxides were readily achieved under a higher applied potential with the adventitious H2O in the reaction mixture.
