A facile and versatile electro-reductive system for hydrodefunctionalization under ambient conditions

A general electrochemical system for reductive hydrodefunctionalization is described, employing the inexpensive and easily available triethylamine (Et3N) as a sacrificial reductant. This protocol is characterized by facile operation, sustainable conditions, and exceptionally wide substrate scope covering the cleavage of C-halogen, N-S, N-C, O-S, O-C, C-C and C-N bonds. Notably, the selectivity and capability of reduction can be conveniently switched by simple incorporation or removal of an alcohol as a co-solvent.

C-F activation for C(sp2)-C(sp3) cross-coupling by a secondary phosphine oxide (SPO)-nickel complex

A secondary phosphine oxide (SPO)-nickel catalyst allowed the activation of otherwise inert C-F bonds of unactivated arenes in terms of challenging couplings with primary and secondary alkyl Grignard reagents. The C-F activation is characterized by mild reaction conditions and high levels of branched selectivity. Electron-rich and electron-deficient arenes were suitable electrophiles for this transformation. In addition, this strategy also proved suitable to heterocycles and for the activation of C-O bonds under slightly modified conditions.

Alkylimidazole-Based Phosphines as Efficient Ligands for Palladium-Catalyzed Suzuki Reactions

Two series of alkylimidazole-based phosphines were conveniently synthesized in one step from the corresponding alkylimidazole by selective deprotonation and quenching with chlorodiphenylphosphine. The novel ligands are easily tunable and exhibit good-to-excellent performance in the palladium-catalyzed Suzuki coupling reaction.
