Controlled synthesis of α-monoarylated ketones is significant yet challenging due to the site-selectivity issues and nonproductive overarylation reactions. Herein, we reported the direct synthesis of α-arylated ketones enabled by Ni-catalyzed dehydrogenative cross-coupling reaction cascade between alcohols and olefins. The use of readily available and cost-effective alcohols and olefins provides a straightforward access to monoarylated ketones in good yields with exclusive selectivity without using any advanced synthetic intermediates.
Complementary catalytic strategies to access α-chiral aldehydes

The present article summarizes the development of two novel and complementary catalytic methods to access α-chiral aldehydes. A C1-symmetric chiral (P,N) ligand with a structure derived from the ubiquitous binepine scaffold has been specifically designed for the Pd-catalyzed α arylation of aldehydes to access indane derivatives with a well-defined quaternary stereocenter in high yields and excellent enantioselectivities. In addition, a dinuclear palladium hydride catalyst has been synthesized for the isomerization of terminal and trisubstituted epoxides into aldehydes and ketones respectively. Combined experimental and theoretical investigations pointed to an unprecedented 'epoxide-opening/hydride-transfer' sequence. The mechanism also features two distinct enantio-determining steps in the kinetic resolution of racemic epoxides. Schweizerische Chemische Gesellschaft.

Parallel interconnected kinetic asymmetric transformations were performed in order to obtain enantioenriched derivatives starting from a set of racemic or prochiral compounds. Thus, in a one-pot reaction using two redox biocatalysts (a BVMO and an ADH) and a catalytic amount of cofactor that acts as a mediator, enantioenriched ketones, sulfoxides, and sec-alcohols were concurrently obtained in a strict parallel way, minimising the quantity of reagents employed. By selecting the appropriate biocatalysts, this methodology represents a potential tool for performing stereodivergent transformations.
