Herein we report a practical pinacol coupling reaction, in which ketones (aldehydes) react smoothly with Sm and TMSBr to afford the diol products with Sm(II) or (III) siliyl species generated in situ. This reported method affords poor yields for aromatic ketone substrates and good yields for aliphatic ketones. Therefore, it distinguishes from most reductive coupling approaches that are more effective for aromatic carbonyl compounds and provides a facile and robust approach for the pinacol coupling of aliphatic ketones. Mechanistic studies also indicated the pinacolization probably proceeded via an anionic instead of radical coupling pathway involving the Brook rearrangement in the presence of samarium (II or III) silyl species.

The reductive pinacol coupling reaction of aldehydes or ketones creating a new C-C bond has been a major tool to produce 1,2-diol compounds. The reaction mechanism is known to be composed of sequential three steps (activation, coupling, and dissociation). In this work, we studied the dissociation step of half-titanocene-based catalytic systems. Cp and Cp* derivatives of the pinacolato-bridged dinuclear complex were synthesized and evaluated as possible models for intermediates from the coupling step. We monitored 1H-NMR spectra of the reaction between the metalla-pinacol intermediates and D2O. New reaction routes of the dissociation step including oxo- and pinacolato-dibridged dinuclear complexes and oxo-bridged multinuclear complexes have been suggested. Copyright

Aromatic aldimines reacted with Sr in the presence of a catalytic amount of iodine to give self-coupling products in good yields, whereas aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes underwent a similar reaction effected by the combined use of Sr and Al(OEt)3. Copyright
