Regioselective Hydroperoxylation of Aziridines and Epoxides Only with Aqueous Hydrogen Peroxide

A catalyst and organic solvent-free regioselective hydroperoxylation of aziridines and epoxides, including spiroaziridine- and spiroepoxy oxindoles have been explored with commercially available 50% aq. H2O2. This method provides an access to secondary benzylic β-hydroperoxy amines and -alcohols and tertiary 3-hydroperoxy oxindoles. The protocol is also applicable to the less reactive alkyl aziridines. Furthermore, an acid-catalyzed Kornblum-DeLaMare type rearrangement of secondary benzylic hydroperoxide has also been revealed to afford amino- and hydroxyl ketones. (Figure presented.).

Iodine-Initiated Dioxygenation of Aryl Alkenes Using tert-Butylhydroperoxides and Water: A Route to Vicinal Diols and Bisperoxides

An environment-friendly and efficient dioxygenation of aryl alkenes for the construction of vicinal diols has been developed in water with iodine as the catalyst and tert-butylhydroperoxides (TBHPs) as the oxidant. The protocol was efficient, sustainable, and operationally simple. Detailed mechanistic studies indicated that one of the hydroxyl groups is derived from water and the other one is derived from TBHP. Additionally, the bisperoxides could be obtained in good yields with iodine as the catalyst, Na2CO3 as the additive, and propylene carbonate as the solvent, instead.

Intramolecular C(sp3)–H Bond Oxygenation by Transition-Metal Acylnitrenoids

This study demonstrates for the first time that easily accessible transition-metal acylnitrenoids can be used for controlled direct C(sp3)-H oxygenations. Specifically, a ruthenium catalyst activates N-benzoyloxycarbamates as nitrene precursors towards regioselective intramolecular C?H oxygenations to provide cyclic carbonates, hydroxylated carbamates, or 1,2-diols. The method can be applied to the chemoselective C?H oxygenation of benzylic, allylic, and propargylic C(sp3)?H bonds. The reaction can be performed in an enantioselective fashion and switched in a catalyst-controlled fashion between C?H oxygenation and C?H amination. This work provides a new reaction mode for the regiocontrolled and stereocontrolled conversion of C(sp3)-H into C(sp3)?O bonds.

Synthesis of Unprotected 2-Arylglycines by Transamination of Arylglyoxylic Acids with 2-(2-Chlorophenyl)glycine

The transamination of α-keto acids with 2-phenylglycine is an effective methodology for directly synthesizing unprotected α-amino acids. However, the synthesis of 2-arylglycines by transamination is problematic because the corresponding products, 2-arylglycines, transaminate the starting arylglyoxylic acids. Herein, we demonstrate the use of commercially available l-2-(2-chlorophenyl)glycine as the nitrogen source in the transamination of arylglyoxylic acids, producing the corresponding 2-arylglycines without interference from the undesired self-transamination process.

Direct, high-yielding, one-step synthesis of vic-diols from aryl alkynes

An unprecedented, high yielding, direct, one-step synthesis of vic-diols from alkynes has been developed via metal-free, open-to-air dihydroboration with ammonia borane. The electronics of the alkyne and the reaction stoichiometry are critical for obtaining optimal yields of the 1,2-diol.

Cp2TiCl2-catalyzed cycloboration of α-olefins with PhBCl2in the synthesis of 2-alkyl(aryl,benzyl)-1-phenylboriranes

A one-pot method for the synthesis of 2-alkyl(aryl, benzyl)-1-phenylboriranes has been developed via the reaction of α-olefins with PhBCl2in the presence of Cp2TiCl2as the catalyst. The method implies the formation of boriranes as the result of transmetalation of titanacyclopropane intermediates generated in the reaction of α-olefins with Cp2TiCl2. Individual 1-phenyl-2-substituted boriranes were isolated and their structures confirmed by NMR spectral methods.

Developing a Bench-Scale Green Diboration Reaction toward Industrial Application

We report a new methodology for the organocatalytic diboration reaction using inexpensive, sustainable, nontoxic, commercially available halogen salts. This is an educative manuscript for the transformation of laboratory scale reactions into a sustainable approach of appeal to industry.

Amine Catalysis for the Organocatalytic Diboration of Challenging Alkenes

The generation of in situ sp2–sp3diboron adducts has revolutionised the synthesis of organoboranes. Organocatalytic diboration reactions have represented a milestone in terms of unpredictable reactivity of these adducts. However, current methodologies have limitations in terms of substrate scope, selectivity and functional group tolerance. Here a new methodology based on the use of simple amines as catalyst is reported. This methodology provides a completely selective transformation overcoming current substrate scope and functional/protecting group limitations. Mechanistic studies have been included in this report.

Transition-Metal-Free Stereospecific Cross-Coupling with Alkenylboronic Acids as Nucleophiles

We herein report a transition-metal-free cross-coupling between secondary alkyl halides/mesylates and aryl/alkenylboronic acid, providing expedited access to a series of nonchiral/chiral coupling products in moderate to good yields. Stereospecific SN2-type coupling is developed for the first time with alkenylboronic acids as pure nucleophiles, offering an attractive alternative to the stereospecific transition-metal-catalyzed C(sp2)-C(sp3) cross-coupling.

Temperature-dependent immobilization of a tungsten peroxo complex that catalyzes the hydroxymethoxylation of olefins

Abstract A tungsten peroxo complex stabilized by the bidentate picolinato ligand has been synthesized and then immobilized successfully on imidazole-functionalized silica. The immobilized tungsten-based catalyst was employed as an efficient catalyst for the one-pot synthesis of β-alkoxy alcohols from olefins and methanol with H2O2. Regarding the catalyst evaluation and the results of characterization by the various methods, it was demonstrated that the immobilization of tungsten peroxo complex was highly temperature-dependent. The tungsten peroxo complex can dissociate and diffuse into the liquid phase at reaction temperature, resulting in a homogeneous reaction. Nevertheless, the catalytically active species was anchored on the imidazole-functionalized silica by hydrogen bonding as the temperature was lowered to 0°C after the reaction, which thus offered a highly effective approach for recycling the catalyst for consecutive cycles. In addition, various olefins can be converted to the corresponding β-alkoxy alcohols with good conversion and selectivity under relative mild conditions by H2O2. Running hot and cold: A tungsten peroxo complex (see picture) can dissociate and diffuse into the liquid phase at the reaction temperature, resulting in a homogeneous reaction. After reaction, the catalytically active species was anchored on the functionalized silica by hydrogen-bonding as the temperature was lowered to 0°C. This offers an effective approach for catalyst recovery and recycling.
