An α-vinylation of enolizable ketones has been developed by using β-bromostyrenes and a KOtBu/NMP system. β,γ-Unsaturated ketones of E configuration were obtained in excellent yield and selectivity. Further synthetic possibilities are highlighted by one-pot functionalization via trapping of intermediate dienolates with alkyl, allyl, benzyl, and propargyl halides to generate quaternary centers. The reported transformation is believed to involve phenylacetylene and propargylic alcohol derivatives.

A procedure for Ni-catalyzed cross-coupling of ketone enolates with alkenyl halides has been developed. Intermolecular coupling of aromatic and aliphatic ketone lithium enolates with a variety of alkenyl halides is achieved in the presence of Ni(cod)2 catalyst (5 mol %), an N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligand, and LiI (10 mol %) at 6-22 °C for 0.5-12 h with yields of up to 90%. During the initial development of this reaction, a misleading result with respect to the actual active catalyst was obtained using commercially available Q-Phos ligand, which was found to contain a trace of Pd metal contaminant sufficient to catalyze the reaction. However, under the final conditions optimized for Ni(cod)2 in the presence of an NHC ligand, Pd was incompetent as a catalyst.

Synthesis and X-ray crystallographic characterization of fluorotetraphenylbismuth (1) has been achieved for the first time, revealing that the bismuth center of 1 adopts a distorted trigonal bipyramidal geometry with three ipso carbons at the equatorial sites and one ipso carbon and fluorine atom at the apical sites. Contrary to the previous common understanding of this type of organobismuth(V) compound, 1 was found to be thermally stable, maintaining its amphiphilic property. Hence, 1 can be used as an off-the-shelf reagent in organic synthesis, and its utility has been clearly demonstrated in applications to the efficient α-phenylation of ketones and esters. For instance, simple mixing of 1 and 1-trimethylsiloxy-3,4-dihydronaphthalene in THF at -40 °C and stirring at room temperature for 10 min gave rise to 2-phenyl-1-tetralone almost quantitatively without formation of the polyphenylated products. In addition to the generality of this method, applicability of our approach to the selective α-alkenylation of carbonyl compounds was also demonstrated by the use of fluoro(2-phenylethenyl)tris(p-tolyl)bismuth (2) as a representative reagent. These results imply the vast potential of organobismuth(V) compounds of type 1 and 2 as useful precursors of a wide variety of pentavalent organobismuth compounds based on the utilization of the eminent fluorine-silicon interaction or the inherent basicity of the fluorine atom.

The photochemistry of some members of the two series of γ-phenyl substituted acyclic β,γ-unsaturated ketones 1 and 2 upon direct irradiation with λ 310 nm has been investigated, viz 1c-1h and 2b+2c.The alkyl substituted (E)-5-phenyl-4-penten-2-ones 1c-1h yield the corresponding 1,3-acyl shift products and (Z)-isomers, and 1g and 1h in addition two decarbonylated products. 2b only yields the (Z)-isomer and some benzaldehyde, but 2c yields the 1,3-acyl shift product, the ODPM product, three hydrocarbons formed by disproportionation of the allyl radical, and some benzaldehyde.The β-phenyl β,γ-UK 3a proved to be photostable.The 1,3-acyl shift products of 1c-1h result mainly from the singlet excited state in a cage radical process.The exclusive formation of the (E)-configuration of the 1,3-acyl shift product is explained in terms of conformational preference of the intermediate allyl radical.It is proposed that the formation of the (Z)-isomer proceeds from 1T(?-?*) which is populated according to .Evidence is presented which supports the proposed mechanism.The β,γ-UK 2b containing a benzoyl moiety leads to a higher degree of (E)-(Z) isomerization than the corresponding 1d which has an acetyl moiety.The triplet energies of (E)- and (Z)-1h are 56 and ca 70 kcal/mol respectively.
