The Baeyer-Villiger or Beckmann rearrangements are established methods for the cleavage of ketone derivatives under acidic conditions, proceeding for unsymmetrical precursors selectively at the more substituted site. However, the fragmentation regioselectivity cannot be switched and fragmentation at the less-substituted terminus is so far not possible. We report here that the reaction of ketone enolates with commercial alkyl nitrites provides a direct and regioselective way of fragmenting ketones into esters and oximes or ω-hydroxyimino esters, respectively. A comprehensive study of the scope of this reaction with respect to ketone classes and alkyl nitrites is presented. Control over the site of cleavage is gained through regioselective enolate formation by various bases. Oxidation of kinetic enolates of unsymmetrical ketones leads to the otherwise unavailable "anti-Beckmann"cleavage at the less-substituted side chain, while cleavage of thermodynamic enolates of the same ketones represents an alternative to the Baeyer-Villiger oxidation or the Beckmann rearrangement under basic conditions. The method is suited for the transformation of natural products and enables access to orthogonally reactive dicarbonyl compounds.

A convenient procedure for conducting small-scale carbonylations of aryl or benzyl halides in a microwave reactor by using quinolin-8-yl formate is described. The resulting 8-acyloxyquinolines were shown to be more reactive than phenyl esters in acyl-tran

Rational ligand design is crucial for achieving widespread applications of coordination polymers. The preparation, structural characterisation, and catalytic applications of zirconium (IV) coordination polymer (Zr-IDA), which was derived from 1-(carboxymethyl)-1H-indazole-5-carboxylic acid are reported. The Zr-IDA catalyst contains porous and highly crystalline particles with a quasi-spherical morphology around 100 nm in size, and Zr was coordinated with both O and N as shown by FT-IR and XPS measurements. Importantly, the Zr-IDA catalyst shows great activity, selectivity and stability in the oxidative coupling of benzyl cyanides with tert-butyl hydroperoxide to afford tert-butyl peresters, and the dehydrogenation cyclization of o-phenylenediamines with aromatic alcohols to afford 1,2-disubstituted benzimidazole derivatives. Mechanistic investigations were carried out to study these reactions and the developed catalytic system in more detail.
