A metal-free strategy for the cross-dehydrogenative coupling of 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds with 2-methoxyethanol

Here, we report a metal-free approach for the construction of methylene-bridged bis-1,3-dicarbonyl compounds via cross-dehydrogenative coupling of 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds with 2-methoxyethanol. In addition, we have extended this methodology to synthesize tetra-substituted pyridine derivatives using 1,3-dicarbonyl, 2-methoxyethanol and NH4OAc in one step. The key advantages include accepting a wide range of substrates, utilizing O2 as the sole oxidant, and synthesizing biologically active compounds such as 1,4-dihydropyridine and pyrazole.

Gold N-Heterocyclic Carbene Catalysts for the Hydrofluorination of Alkynes Using Hydrofluoric Acid: Reaction Scope, Mechanistic Studies and the Tracking of Elusive Intermediates

An efficient and chemoselective methodology deploying gold-N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes as catalysts in the hydrofluorination of terminal alkynes using aqueous HF has been developed. Mechanistic studies shed light on an in situ generated catalyst, formed by the reaction of Br?nsted basic gold pre-catalysts with HF in water, which exhibits the highest reactivity and chemoselectivity. The catalytic system has a wide alkyl substituted-substrate scope, and stoichiometric as well as catalytic reactions with tailor-designed gold pre-catalysts enable the identification of various gold species involved along the catalytic cycle. Computational studies aid in understanding the chemoselectivity observed through examination of key mechanistic steps for phosphine- and NHC-coordinated gold species bearing the triflate counterion and the elusive key complex bearing a bifluoride counterion.

A Carbene Strategy for Progressive (Deutero)Hydrodefluorination of Fluoroalkyl Ketones

Hydrodefluorination is one of the most promising chemical strategies to degrade perfluorochemicals into partially fluorinated compounds. However, controlled progressive hydrodefluorination remains a significant challenge, owing to the decrease in the stre

Ag-Catalyzed Insertion of Alkynyl Carbenes into C-C Bonds of β-Ketocarbonyls: A Formal C(sp2) Insertion

Here we report a silver-catalyzed alkynyl carbene insertion into β-ketocarbonyls using alkynyl N-nosylhydrazones as alkynyl carbene precursors, which provides access to trisubstituted allenyl ketones. This reaction represents the first example of an alkynyl carbene insertion into a C-C σ bond, affording products homologated with an sp2 carbon center. The products are useful substrates for further transformations. Experimental investigations and theoretical calculations suggest the reaction proceeds through a stepwise enol cyclopropanation/retro-aldol pathway.

Catalyst- And Substituent-Controlled Regio- And Stereoselective Synthesis of Indolyl Acrylates by Lewis-Acid-Catalyzed Direct Functionalization of 3-Formylindoles with Diazo Esters

A facile and efficient In(OTf)3- and BF3·OEt2-catalyzed direct transformation of 3-formylindoles with diazo esters has been developed for synthesizing diverse and functionalized indolyl acrylates. This one-pot protocol furnishes various (Z)-α-hydroxy-β-indolyl acrylates, (E)-β-(2-alkoxy-2-oxoethoxy)-α-indolyl acrylates, and (Z)-3-hydroxy-2-indolyl acrylates by a catalyst- and substituent-controlled, regio- and stereoselective cascade reaction. The protocol has several advantages, including low loading of the catalyst, mild reaction conditions, broad scope, and high functional group tolerance. The synthesized compounds can be further converted into diversely functionalized materials.

A conceptually novel method for the preparation of pyrrole is described by electrochemical-oxidation-induced intermolecular annulation via enamines. In a simple undivided cell, based on a sodium acetate-facilitated, polysubstituted pyrrole derivations has been facilely synthesized under external oxidant-free condition. This electrosynthetic approach providing an environmentally benign protocol for C?C bond cross-coupling and oxidative annulation, which features unparalleled broad scope of substrates and practicality.

Construction of isoxazolone-fused phenanthridinesviaRh-catalyzed cascade C-H activation/cyclization of 3-arylisoxazolones with cyclic 2-diazo-1,3-diketones

A Rh(iii)-catalyzed cascade C-H activation/intramolecular cyclization of 3-aryl-5-isoxazolones with cyclic 2-diazo-1,3-diketones was described, leading to the formation of isoxazolo[2,3-f]phenanthridine skeletons. The protocol features the simultaneous one-pot formation of two new C-C/C-N bonds and one heterocycle in moderate-to-good yields with good functional group compatibility. It is amenable to large-scale synthesis and further transformation.

Sulfur-controlled and rhodium-catalyzed formal (3 + 3) transannulation of thioacyl carbenes with alk-2-enals and mechanistic insights

A rhodium-catalyzed denitrogenative formal (3 + 3) transannulation of 1,2,3-thiadiazoles with alk-2-enals is achieved, producing 2,3-dihydrothiopyran-4-ones in moderate to excellent yields. An inverse KIE of 0.49 is obtained, suggesting the reversibility of the oxidative addition of thioacyl Rh(i) carbenes to alk-2-enals. The late-stage structural modifications of steroid compounds are realized. Moreover, our studies show that thioacyl carbenes have different reactivities to those of α-oxo and α-imino carbenes, and highlight the importance of heteroatoms in deciding the reactivities of heterovinyl carbenes.
