A novel cobalt-catalyzed C-H alkylation of arenes and olefins is achieved with (pyridin-2-yl)isopropyl amine as an N,N-bidentate directing group. Different linear, branched, and cyclic alkyl ethers were used as practical secondary alkylating reagents through cleavage of C(sp3)-O bond, providing an efficient approach to the synthesis of verstile o-alkylated arylamides and tetrasubstituted acrylamides. Mechanistic studies indicate that cleavage of the inert C(sp3)-O bond involves a cobalt-promoted radical process and that cleavage of the inert C(sp2)-H bond by a cobalt catalyst is a rate-limiting step.

Disclosed is a method for the transition metal-mediated oxidation of C-H bonds to form C-0 or C-S bonds. The methods are useful for the formation of ethers (R-OR') from alcohols, R'OH, and sp3 -hybridized C-H bonds in substrates, R-H. Aryl or heteroaryl acetates may also be used for C-H to C-OAr bond formation. The methods are also useful in the preparation of C-S bonds from acetyl-protected thiols, MeC(0)SR, and disulfides, RSSR. Advantageously, the methods minimize reaction steps, the handling of oxidized intermediates, and environmental impact.
Catalytic reductive etherification of ketones with alcohols at ambient hydrogen pressure: A practical, waste-minimized synthesis of dialkyl ethers

A heterogeneous platinum catalyst was found to efficiently mediate the reductive etherification of ketones at ambient hydrogen pressure. In this environmentally benign transformation, water is released as the only by-product, and this is trapped with molecular sieves. The preparative utility of the new reaction protocol is demonstrated by the synthesis of ten unsymmetrical ethers from the corresponding ketones and primary or secondary alcohols.
