An efficient palladium-catalyzed chlorocarbonylation of aryl (pseudo)halides that gives access to a wide range of carboxylic acid derivatives has been developed. The use of butyryl chloride as a combined CO and Cl source eludes the need for toxic, gaseous carbon monoxide, thus facilitating the synthesis of high-value products from readily available aryl (pseudo)halides. The combination of palladium(0), Xantphos, and an amine base is essential to promote this broadly applicable catalytic reaction. Overall, this reaction provides access to a great variety of carbonyl-containing products through in situ transformation of the generated aroyl chloride. Combined experimental and computational studies support a reaction mechanism involving in situ generation of CO.

Solvent effect upon asymmetric photosensitization has been investigated in the enantiodifferentiating photoisomerization of cyclooctene(1Z), sensitized by benzoate modified β-cyclodextrin derivatives bearing nitrogen, oxygen or sulfur substituents. The enantiomeric excess (ee) and E/Z ratio of reaction products were susceptible to the concentration of methanol in the aqueous solution, which could switch to the chirality of product unprecedentedly. Further investigation indicated that the conformation of the modified CDs in aqueous methanol solutions with 1Z were highly sensitive to both the substituent(s) on benzoate moiety of the modified CDs and the concentration of methanol. Solvent content represents a new versatile tool to efficiently manipulate the asymmetric photochemical reactions, in which the chirality of products can be switched by simply changing the methanol content of reaction solvent rather than synthesizing the antipodal sensitizers.
