Mechanistic insight into the synergistic Cu/Pd-catalyzed carbonylation of aryl iodides using alcohols and dioxygen as the carbonyl source

Pd-catalyzed carbonylation, as an efficient synthetic approach to the installation of carbonyl groups in organic compounds, has been one of the most important research fields in the past decade. Although elegant reactions that allow highly selective carbonylations have been developed, straightforward routes with improved reaction activity and broader substrate scope remain long-term challenges for new practical applications. Here, we show a new type of synergistic Cu/Pd-catalyzed carbonylation reaction using alcohols and dioxgen as the carbonyl sources. A broad range of aryl iodides and alcohols are compatible with this protocol. The reaction is concise and practical due to the ready availability of the starting materials and the scalability of the reaction. In addition, the reaction affords lactones and lactams in an intermolecular fashion. Moreover, DFT calculations have been performed to study the detailed mechanisms.

Dehydrogenative cross-coupling of primary alcohols to form cross-esters catalyzed by a manganese pincer complex

Base-metal-catalyzed dehydrogenative cross-coupling of primary alcohols to form cross-esters as major products, liberating hydrogen gas, is reported. The reaction is catalyzed by a pincer complex of earth-abundant manganese in the presence of catalytic base, without any hydrogen acceptor or oxidant. Mechanistic insight indicates that a dearomatized complex is the actual catalyst, and indeed this independently prepared dearomatized complex catalyzes the reaction under neutral conditions.

Phosphite-catalyzed alkoxycarbonylation of aryl diazonium salts

In this communication, an interesting phosphite-catalyzed alkoxycarbonylation of aryl diazonium salts has been reported. At room temperature and under CO pressure, moderate to good yields of the desired esters can be produced in the absence of bases or an
