Stepwise benzylic oxygenation via uranyl-photocatalysis
Hu, Deqing,Jiang, Xuefeng
supporting information, p. 124 - 129 (2022/01/19)
Stepwise oxygenation at the benzylic position (1°, 2°, 3°) of aromatic molecules was comprehensively established under ambient conditions via uranyl photocatalysis to produce carboxylic acids, ketones, and alcohols, respectively. The accuracy of the stepwise oxygenation was ensured by the tunability of catalytic activity in uranyl photocatalysis, which was adjusted by solvents and additives demonstrated through Stern–Volmer analysis. Hydrogen atom transfer between the benzylic position and the uranyl catalyst facilitated oxygenation, further confirmed by kinetic studies. Considerably improved efficiency of flow operation demonstrated the potential for industrial synthetic application.

Oxidation is a major chemical process to produce oxygenated chemicals in both nature and the chemical industry. Presently, the industrial manufacture of benzoic acids and benzene polycarboxylic acids (BPCAs) is mainly based on the deep oxidation of polyalkyl benzene, which is somewhat suffering from environmental and economical disadvantage due to the formation of ozone-depleting MeBr and corrosion hazards of production equipment. In this report, photo-induced deep aerobic oxidation of (poly)alkyl benzene to benzene (poly)carboxylic acids was developed. CeCl3 was proved to be an efficient HAT (hydrogen atom transfer) catalyst in the presence of alcohol as both hydrogen and electron shuttle. Dioxygen (O2) was found as a sole terminal oxidant. In most cases, pure products were easily isolated by simple filtration, implying large-scale implementation advantages. The reaction provides an ideal protocol to produce valuable fine chemicals from naturally abundant petroleum feedstocks. [Figure not available: see fulltext.].

Herein, a Grubbs-catalyzed route for the synthesis of nitriles via the aerobic oxidation of primary amines is reported. This reaction accommodates a variety of substrates, including simple primary amines, sterically hindered β,β-disubstituted amines, allylamine, benzylamines, and α-amino esters. Reaction compatibility with various functionalities is also noted, particularly with alkenes, alkynes, halogens, esters, silyl ethers, and free hydroxyl groups. The nitriles were also synthesized via the oxidation of imines generated from aldehydes and NH4OAc in situ. (Figure presented.).
Electrocarboxylation of halobenzonitriles: An environmentally friendly synthesis of phthalate derivatives

This manuscript presents an efficient approach for producing high valuable compounds using CO2 as building block. The methodology employed is based on electrochemical techniques, which allow performing eco-friendly chemistry solutions and maintaining the aim of offering a potential long-term strategy for reducing the CO2 emissions in the atmosphere, while obtaining useful compounds, such as aromatic acids and phthalate derivatives. This work describes the electrochemical reduction behavior of 4-halobenzonitrile compounds using Glassy Carbon and Silver as cathodes under inert and carbon dioxide atmosphere. Controlled potential electrolysis of 4-halobenzonitriles under CO2 allows obtaining, in very good yields, the corresponding mono- and di-carboxylated organic compounds in CO2-saturated solutions of dimethylformamide containing 0.1 M of tetrabutylammonium tetrafluoroborate. Electro-catalytic effects are seen when Ag is used a cathode, which give very high yields, especially as regards di-carboxylated products. The methodology offers a new “green” route for the synthesis of different phthalate derivatives, which can be potentially used for making plastic polymers in a more environmentally friendly way.

An aqueous continuous-flow reaction system is developed for the palladium-catalyzed hydroxycarbonylation of aryl halides. Flow hydroxycarbonylation of aryl halides in aqueous solution proceeds efficiently in a flow reactor containing a palladium-diphenylphosphine complex immobilized on an amphiphilic polystyrene-poly(ethylene glycol) resin to give the corresponding benzoic acids in excellent yields.

We report the efficient carboxylation of bromides and triflates with K2CO3 as the source of CO2 in the presence of an organic photocatalyst in combination with a nickel complex under visible light irradiation at room temperature. The reaction is compatible with a variety of functional groups and has been successfully applied to the synthesis and derivatization of biologically active molecules. In particular, the carboxylation of unactivated cyclic alkyl bromides proceeded well with our protocol, thus extending the scope of this transformation. Spectroscopic and spectroelectrochemical investigations indicated the generation of a Ni0 species as a catalytic reactive intermediate.

Carboxylation of short-lived organolithiums bearing electrophilic functional groups such as nitro, cyano, and alkoxycarbonyl groups with CO 2 to give carboxylic acids and active esters was accomplished in a flow microreactor system. The successful reactions indicate that gas/liquid mass transfer and the subsequent chemical reaction with CO2 are extremely fast.

Effective palladium-catalyzed hydroxycarbonylation of aryl halides with substoichiometric carbon monoxide

supporting information, p. 2891 - 2894 (2013/04/10)
A protocol for the Pd-catalyzed hydroxycarbonylation of aryl iodides, bromides, and chlorides has been developed using only 1-5 mol % of CO, corresponding to a pCO as low as 0.1 bar. Potassium formate is the only stoichiometric reagent, acting as a mildly basic nucleophile and a reservoir of CO. The substoichiometric CO could be delivered to the reaction from an acyl-Pd(II) precatalyst, which provides both the CO and an active catalyst, and thereby obviates the need for handling a toxic gas.

, p. 2417 - 2420 (2013/10/22)
A method for carboxylation of aryl iodides with carbon dioxide has been developed. The reaction employs low loadings of copper iodide/N,N,N′, N′-tetramethylethylenediamine (TMEDA) or N,N′- dimethylethylenediamine (DMEDA) catalyst, 1 atm of CO2, dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) or dimethylacetamide (DMA) solvent, and proceeds at 25-70 C. Good functional group tolerance is observed, with ester, bromide, chloride, fluoride, ether, hydroxy, amino, and ketone functionalities tolerated. Additionally, hindered aryl iodides such as iodomesitylene can also be carboxylated

For the first time, we have successfully applied Co2(CO) 8 as an effective carbonyl source for the Pd catalysed alkoxycarbonylation of aryl halides affording the corresponding aryl esters under mild microwave conditions. A wide variety of esters and carbonyl derivatives were prepared using this protocol.
