Host-guest assemblies of a designed 1,4-bis(diarylamino)naphthalene and V-shaped aromatic amphiphiles consisting of two pentamethylbenzene moieties bridged by an m -phenylene unit bearing two hydrophilic side chains emerged as highly reducing photoredox catalysis systems in water. An efficient demethoxylative hydrogen transfer of Weinreb amides has been developed. The present supramolecular strategy permits facile tuning of visible-light photoredox catalysis in water.

This study reports the catalytic deracemization of ketones bearing stereocenters in the α-position in a single reaction via deprotonation, followed by enantioselective protonation. The principle of microscopic reversibility, which has previously rendered this strategy elusive, is overcome by a photoredox deprotonation through single electron transfer and subsequent hydrogen atom transfer (HAT). Specifically, the irradiation of racemic pyridylketones in the presence of a single photocatalyst and a tertiary amine provides nonracemic carbonyl compounds with up to 97% enantiomeric excess. The photocatalyst harvests the visible light, induces the redox process, and is responsible for the asymmetric induction, while the amine serves as a single electron donor, HAT reagent, and proton source. This conceptually simple light-driven strategy of coupling a photoredox deprotonation with a stereocontrolled protonation, in conjunction with an enrichment process, serves as a blueprint for other deracemizations of ubiquitous carbonyl compounds.

Azidation of alkenes is an efficient protocol to synthesize organic azides which are important structural motifs in organic synthesis. Enantioselective radical azidation, as a useful strategy to install a C-N3 bond, remains challenging due to the inherently instability and unique structure of radicals. Here, we disclose an efficient enantioselective radical carboazidation and diazidation of α,β-unsaturated ketones and amides catalyzed by chiral N,N′-dioxide/Fe(OTf)2 complexes. An array of substituted alkenes was transformed to the corresponding α-azido carbonyl derivatives in good to excellent enantioselectivities, benefiting the preparation of chiral α-amino ketones, vicinal amino alcohols, and vicinal diamines. Control experiments and mechanistic studies proved the radical pathway in the reaction process. The DFT calculations showed that the azido transferred to the radical intermediate via an intramolecular five-membered transition state with the internal nitrogen of the Fe-N3 species.

Blue light irradiation of aryldiazoacetates leads to the formation of free carbenes, which can react with carbazoles, pyrazoles and 1,2,3-triazoles to afford the corresponding N?H inserted products. These reactions are performed under air and at room temperature, allowing the mild preparation of a variety of motifs found in biologically relevant targets. (Figure presented.).

A straightforward synthesis of acylating reagents such as Weinreb and MAP amides from aromatic, aliphatic carboxylic acids, and amino acids using PPh3/NBS combination is described. A chemo-selective modification of the carboxylic acid group into Weinreb amide in the presence of more reactive aldehydes and ketones is presented. All reactions were performed at ambient temperature under air using undried commercial grade solvent. Furthermore, the present methodology could be performed at a gram scale under inert-free reaction conditions. In addition, 7-azaindoline amide auxiliary (used for catalytic asymmetric aldol- and Mannich-type reactions), which behaves like Weinreb amide is also synthesized under similar reaction conditions.
An Efficient Palladium-Catalysed Aminocarbonylation of Benzyl Chlorides
Oram, Niall,Richardson, Jeffery,Rilvin-Derrick, Eloise
, p. 369 - 372 (2020/02/27)
An improved procedure for the aminocarbonylation of benzyl chloride derivatives using carbon monoxide and either primary or secondary amines has been developed. Studying the competing background alkylation reaction allowed the solvent and base to be selected for a simple catalyst screen, which, in turn, enabled the discovery of a method for the preparation of 2-arylacetamides under mild conditions, with minimal side-products using an inexpensive phosphine ligand. This non-traditional optimisation strategy allowed us to overcome the background alkylation, which has been cited as justification for the development of more complex and less atom-economical approaches.

Here, we report a general method for the synthesis of quaternary and tertiary difluoromethylated compounds and their vinylfluoride analogues. The strategy, which relies on a two-step sequence featuring a C-selective electrophilic difluoromethylation and either a palladium-catalyzed decarboxylative protonation or a Krapcho decarboxylation, is practical, scalable, and high yielding. Considering the generality of the method and the attractive properties offered by the difluoromethyl group, this approach provides a valuable tool for late-stage functionalization and drug development.
Enantioselective Addition of Alkynyl Ketones to Nitroolefins Assisted by Br?nsted Base/H-Bonding Catalysis

Various sets of enolizable alkynyl ketones (including methyl ynones with α-aryl, α-alkenyl, and α-alkoxy groups) were able to react smoothly with nitroolefins with the assistance of bifunctional Br?nsted base/H-bond catalysts to provide adducts with two consecutive tertiary stereocenters in a highly diastereo- and enantioselective fashion. Further transformation of the obtained adducts into optically active acyclic and polycyclic molecules, including some with intricate carbon skeletons, was also demonstrated.
