This study aims to report the first gallium-catalyzed direct reduction of benzylic alcohols using isopropanol as a reductant. The reaction proceeds via gallium catalyst-assisted hydride transfer of the in situ-generated benzylic isopropyl ether. The method generates only water and acetone as byproducts and thus provides an atom-economic and environmentally friendly approach to the synthesis of di- and triarylmethanes, which are important substructures in various bioactive compounds and functional materials. (Figure presented.).

A palladium-catalyzed reductive coupling between N-tosylhydrazones and aryl bromides has been developed. The reaction provides an efficient method for the synthesis of diarylmethanes and triarylmethanes via the formation of C(sp2)-C(sp3) single bonds. This new methodology for the synthesis of diarylmethanes and triarylmethanes is featured by the ready availability of the starting materials, mild reaction conditions, and the tolerance of wide range of functional groups. The reaction follows a pathway including palladium carbene formation, migratory insertion, and reduction of the alkylpalladium(II) intermediate.

Palladium-catalyzed reductive coupling reactions between N-tosylhydrazones and aryl halides lead to the formation of C(sp3)-C(sp2) bonds. This approach provides a general route for the synthesis of triarylmethanes.

(Figure Presented) BF3-monohydrate is found to be an efficient and strong acid catalyst as well as an effective protosolvating medium suitable for the hydroxyalkylation of arenes with aromatic aldehydes. This reaction has been extended to aromatic dialdehydes, such as terephthalic dicarboxaldehyde and isoterephthalic dicarboxaldehyde, for the efficient synthesis of diarylmethylbenzaldehydes, which are useful synthons for various organic transformations. Further, successful one step convergent synthesis of various synthetically useful anthracene derivatives from phthalaldehyde was also achieved. BF3-H2O is less expensive and acts as an efficient substitute for nonoxidizing strong protic acids/superacids.
