Dihalogenation of Alkenes Using Combinations of N-Halosuccinimides and Alkali Metal Halides

A simple, efficient and eco-friendly method for the vicinal dihalogenation of alkenes is described. The reaction is performed with a combination of a N-halosuccinimide and an alkali metal halide using environmentally benign solvents such as acetic acid an

Electrochemical Synthesis of O-Phthalimide Oximes from α-Azido Styrenes via Radical Sequence: Generation, Addition and Recombination of Imide-N-Oxyl and Iminyl Radicals with C?O/N?O Bonds Formation

Electrochemically induced radical-initiated reaction of vinyl azides with N-hydroxyphthalimide resulting O-phthalimide oximes with challenging for organic chemistry N?O-N fragment has been discovered. The developed approach introduces in synthesis electrochemically generated O-centered imide-N-oxyl radicals as the coupling components. Sequential formation of C?O and N?O bonds was achieved via generation and selective addition of imide-N-oxyl radicals, followed by recombination with iminyl radicals. A wide range of O-phthalimide oximes was obtained with the yields up to 84percent. (Figure presented.).

Asymmetric Nazarov Cyclizations of Unactivated Dienones by Hydrogen-Bond-Donor/Lewis Acid Co–Catalyzed, Enantioselective Proton-Transfer

We report an enantioselective Nazarov cyclization catalyzed by chiral hydrogen-bond-donors in concert with silyl Lewis acids. The developed transformation provides access to tri-substituted cyclopentenones in high levels of enantioselectivity (up to 95% e.e.) from a variety of simple unactivated dienones. Kinetic and mechanistic studies are consistent with a reversible 4π-electrocyclization C?C bond-forming step followed by rate- and enantio-determining proton-transfer as the mode of catalysis. (Figure presented.).

Rh(III)-Catalyzed C-H Activation-Initiated Directed Cyclopropanation of Allylic Alcohols

We have developed a Rh(III)-catalyzed diastereoselective [2+1] annulation onto allylic alcohols initiated by alkenyl C-H activation of N-enoxyphthalimides to furnish substituted cyclopropyl-ketones. Notably, the traceless oxyphthalimide handle serves three functions: directing C-H activation, oxidation of Rh(III), and, collectively with the allylic alcohol, in directing cyclopropanation to control diastereoselectivity. Allylic alcohols are shown to be highly reactive olefin coupling partners leading to a directed diastereoselective cyclopropanation reaction, providing products not accessible by other routes.

Visible-Light-Induced Regioselective C(sp3)-H Acyloxylation of Aryl-2 H-azirines with (Diacetoxy)iodobenzene

A visible-light-promoted regioselective coupling of C(sp3)-H of aryl-2H-azirine and (diacetoxy)iodobenzene has been reported. Rose Bengal as an organophotoredox catalyst has been used in this reaction. The reaction proceeds under aerobic condition at room temperature. A variety of aryl-2H-azirines gives the corresponding acyloxylated azirines under this reaction conditions. The reaction goes through a radical pathway. The protocol is also applicable on gram-scale synthesis.

Rhodium(III)-Catalyzed Cyclopropanation of Unactivated Olefins Initiated by C-H Activation

We have developed a rhodium(III)-catalyzed cyclopropanation of unactivated olefins initiated by an alkenyl C-H activation. A variety of 1,1-disubstituted olefins undergo efficient cyclopropanation with a slight excess of alkene stoichiometry. A series of mechanistic interrogations implicate a metal carbene as an intermediate.

Intermolecular Carboamination of Unactivated Alkenes

Herein, we report the first example of group transfer radical addition of O-vinylhydroxylamine derivatives onto unactivated alkenes. By utilizing O-vinylhydroxylamine derivatives as both the N- and C-donors, this reaction enables intermolecular carboamination of unactivated alkenes in an atom economical fashion. As the process is initiated through N-radical addition followed by C-transfer, linear carboamination products are afforded. This differs from canonical radical carbofunctionalization of olefins, which typically favors branched product owing to initiation by C-radical addition.

Visible-Light Photoredox Catalyzed Three-Component Cyclization of 2H-Azirines, Alkynyl Bromides, and Molecular Oxygen to Oxazole Skeleton

A novel three-component cyclization of 2H-azirines, alkynyl bromides, and molecular oxygen under visible-light photoredox catalysis at room temperature has been developed, which provides a direct approach to a wide range of substituted oxazoles in moderate to good yields.

Efficient bromination of olefins, alkynes, and ketones with dimethyl sulfoxide and hydrobromic acid

The oxidative bromination of olefins, alkynes, and ketones has been developed with HBr as the brominating reagent and DMSO as the mild oxidant. The simple conditions, high bromide-atom-economy, as well as easy accessibility and low cost of DMSO and HBr make the present strategy prospective for the synthesis of dibrominated alkanes, dibrominated alkenes and α-bromoketones.
