The first examples of acetone mono-α-arylation at room temperature are described, enabled by use of a [Pd(cinnamyl)Cl]2/JosiPhos catalyst system. (Hetero)aryl chloride, bromide, and iodide electrophiles featuring or lacking ortho-substitution, and comprising a range of functionalities (e.g., alkoxy, cyano, fluoro, trifluoromethyl, or alkenyl) and heteroaryl motifs (e.g., pyrrole, pyridine, isoquinoline, quinoline, quinaldine, (benzo)thiophene, benzothiazole, or benzodioxole) were successfully accommodated. Proof-of-principle experiments confirm that other (hetero)aryl methyl ketones can also be employed in such room temperature mono-α-arylations. The established substrate scope is the most extensive reported to date for acetone mono-α-arylation under any conditions, and more generally represents the first room temperature ketone mono-α-arylations employing a structurally diverse set of (hetero)aryl chlorides.

This work reports gold-catalyzed [3+2]-annulations of α-diazo ketones with highly substituted cyclopentadienes, affording bicyclic 2,3-dihydrofurans with high regio- and stereoselectivity. The reactions highlights the first success of tetrasubstituted alkenes to undergo [3+2]-annulations with α-diazo carbonyls. The enantioselective annulations are also achieved with high enantioselectivity using chiral forms of gold and phosphoric acid. Our mechanistic analysis supports that cyclopentadienes serve as nucleophiles to attack gold carbenes at the more substituted alkenes, yielding gold enolates that complex with chiral phosphoric acid to enhance the enantioselectivity.

The behavior toward polyphosphoric acid of arylhydrazones of a few heterocyclic carbonyl compounds of the thiophene and indole series is described.The phenylhydrazone and 2,6-dimethylphenylhydrazone of ethyl α-thienylglyoxylate gave ethyl 4- and 5-(4-aminoaryl)-α-thienylglyoxylate, arising from two different sigmatropic rearrangements.The N,3,5-trimethylphenylhydrazone of 2-methylindole-3-carboxaldehyde afforded the 4--2-methylindole-3-carboxaldehyde resulting from a sigmatropic rearrangement, while the 2,6-dimethylphenylhydrazone of the same carbonyl compound unexpectedly gave the 3-(4-amino-3,5-dimethylphenyl)-2-methylindole-3-carboxaldehyde generated through a sigmatropic reaction.Chemical evidences are given for the assigned structures.
