Selective Synthesis of Z-Silyl Enol Ethers via Ni-Catalyzed Remote Functionalization of Ketones

We report a remote functionalization strategy, which allows the Z-selective synthesis of silyl enol ethers of (hetero)aromatic and aliphatic ketones via Ni-catalyzed chain walking from a distant olefin site. The positional selectivity is controlled by the directionality of the chain walk and is independent of thermodynamic preferences of the resulting silyl enol ether. Our mechanistic data indicate that a Ni(I) dimer is formed under these conditions, which serves as a catalyst resting state and, upon reaction with an alkyl bromide, is converted to [Ni(II)-H] as an active chain-walking/functionalization catalyst, ultimately generating a stabilized η3-bound Ni(II) enolate as the key selectivity-controlling intermediate.

The thionophosphate-thiolophosphate photoisomerization proceeds predominantly through a non-chain radical pathway. Synthetically viable benzylation of tetrahydrofuran, propan-2-ol and olefins

The photoirradiation of thionophosphates, ROP(S)(OEt)2, derived from benzyl and vinylogously benzyl alcohols in CH3CN, with a Hanovia medium-pressure mercury lamp in a quartz vessel leads to the formation of the corresponding thiolophosphates, RSP(O)(OEt)2, through a non-chain radical pathway. This behavior of thionophosphates is unlike that of the related phosphates, which react through ionic dissociation-recombination processes. When the irradiation is conducted in solvents such as PriOH, THF and toluene, benzylation of these solvents takes place in synthetically respectable yields. Irradiation of thionophosphates in CH3CN leads to a convenient allylic benzylation of olefins.
