Stepwise oxygenation at the benzylic position (1°, 2°, 3°) of aromatic molecules was comprehensively established under ambient conditions via uranyl photocatalysis to produce carboxylic acids, ketones, and alcohols, respectively. The accuracy of the stepwise oxygenation was ensured by the tunability of catalytic activity in uranyl photocatalysis, which was adjusted by solvents and additives demonstrated through Stern–Volmer analysis. Hydrogen atom transfer between the benzylic position and the uranyl catalyst facilitated oxygenation, further confirmed by kinetic studies. Considerably improved efficiency of flow operation demonstrated the potential for industrial synthetic application.

Organic conjugated polymers with long-range conjugation generally have strong light absorption capacity in the visible light region and impressive performance in charge transfer, which endows them great application potential in the field of opto-electronic materials. However, there are few reports on their use in photocatalytic reactions. At present, it has been reported that a variety of donor-acceptor (D?A) type organic dyes can be used in efficient organic photocatalytic transformations. We designed and synthesized one-dimensional organic conjugated polymers pPhCzBP-Th and pPhCzBP-DTh with D?A structure, and proved that they are good heterogeneous photo-redox catalysts, which can photocatalyze hydrodehalogenation reduction of α-bromoacetophenone and its derivatives. Due to the strong reducibility of the excited state, pPhCzBP-Th can also efficiently reduce α-chloroacetophenone. Furthermore, by simply wrapping the catalyst powder, high-efficient separation of products and catalysts recycling can be achieved.

A Rh(I)-catalyzed ketone Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reaction of benzylacetone with arylboronic acid is developed. Selective C(O)-C bond activation, which employs aminopyridine as a temporary directing group and ethyl vinyl ketone as a hydride acceptor, occurs on the alkyl chain containing a β-position hydrogen. A series of acetophenone products were obtained in yields up to 75%.

A mechanistic study of direct selective oxidation of benzylic C(sp3)?H groups with peracetic acid, catalyzed by palladium complexes with tripodal amino-tris(pyriylmethyl) ligands, is presented. The oxidation of arylalkanes having secondary and tertiary benzylic C?H groups, predominantly yields, depending on the substrate and conditions, either the corresponding ketones or alcohols. One of the three 2-pyriylmethyl moieties, which is pending in the starting catalyst, apparently, facilitates the active species formation and takes part in stabilization of the high-valent Pd center in the active species, occupying the axial coordination site of palladium. The catalytic, as well as isotopic labeling experiments, in combination with ESI-MS data and DFT calculations, point out palladium oxyl species as possible catalytically active sites, operating essentially via C?H abstraction/oxygen rebound pathway. For the ketones formation, O?H abstraction/в-scission mechanism has been proposed.

An efficient and practical method has been developed for the preparation of aryl bromides via the direct bromodeboronation of arylboronic acids with CuBr2 in water. This strategy provides several advantages, such as being ligand-free, base-free, high yielding, and functional group tolerant.

A practical synthetic method for the synthesis of aryl bromide was developed through regioselective bromination of boronic acid in the presence of poly-N-bromosulfonamide-melamine (PBBSM). In this regard, a novel heterogeneous support, cross-linked poly sulfonamide-melamine, has been successfully synthesized to stabilize bromine with high surface functional group density (6.6?mmol Br+/g). The prepared reagent is a novel brominating reagent that combines the effective functions of N-bromosulfonamide, N-bromosulfonamide-melamine, and melamine groups. The structure of PBBSM was characterized using XRD, FT–IR, 1H NMR, TGA, FE-SEM, EDX, and TGA analysis. Graphic abstract: [Figure not available: see fulltext.]

A series of mono- to trinuclear gold(I) complexes (1–3) supported by oxo-functionalized 1,2,3-triazolylidenes have been prepared. All new compounds were fully characterized by means of 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy, elemental analyses, and in the case of complexes 1 and 2 by x-ray diffraction. The catalytic performance of the new triazolylidene gold complexes was tested in several hydroelementation and cyclization processes employing a variety of alkynes as starting materials. According to the overall results, the trinuclear complex 3 displayed the highest catalytic activity in all processes, providing good to excellent yields under mild reaction conditions.

Hydration of alkynes to ketones is one of the most atom economical and universal methods for the synthesis of carbonyl compounds. However, the basic reaction usually requires organic ligand catalysts or harsh reaction conditions to insert oxygen into the C≡C bond. Here, we report an inorganic ligand supported cobalt (III) catalyst, (NH4)3[CoMo6O18(OH)6], which is supported by a central cobalt (III) mononucleus and a ring-shaped pure inorganic ligand composed of six MoVIO6 octahedrons to avoid the disadvantages of expensive and unrecyclable organic ligand catalysts or noble metal catalysts. Under mild conditions, the cobalt (III) catalyst can be used for the hydration of alkynes to ketones. The catalyst is non-toxic, green, and environment friendly. The catalyst can be recycled at least six times with high activity. According to control experiments, a reasonable mechanism is provided.

An efficient and sustainable protocol for the hydration of alkynes has been developed under metal/acid/catalyst/ligand-free conditions in a water/ethyl lactate mixture. The hydrogen-bond network in the ethyl lactate and water mixture plays a crucial and decisive role in activating the alkynes for hydration to afford the corresponding methyl ketones. This strategy gives the Markovnikov (ketone) addition product selectively over other possible products. The essential role of hydrogen bonding has been confirmed by experimental and theoretical techniques. A probable mechanism has been suggested by various control tests. The efficacy of the method has been further explored for the competent production of value-added α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds through the reaction of aldehydes with alkynes as ketonic surrogates. The environmentally benign hydration method takes place under mild conditions, has broad functional-group compatibility, and uses the ethyl lactate/water (1:3) medium as a “green alternative” in the absence of any hazardous, harmful, or expensive substances.
