A simple visible light photochemical, nickel-catalyzed synthesis of ketones from carboxylic acid-derived precursors is presented. Hantzsch ester (HE) functions as a cheap, green and strong photoreductant to facilitate radical generation and also engages in the Ni-catalytic cycle to restore the reactive species. With this dual role, HE allows for the coupling of a large variety of radicals (1°,2°, benzylic, α-oxy & α-amino) with aroyl and alkanoyl moieties, a new feature in reactions of this type. With both precursors deriving from abundant carboxylic acids, this protocol is a welcome addition to the organic chemistry toolbox. The reaction proceeds under mild conditions without the need for toxic metal reagents or bases and shows a wide scope, including pharmaceuticals and complex molecular architectures.

An iron-catalyzed deconstruction/hydrogenation reaction of alcohols through C-C bond cleavage is developed through photocatalysis, to produce ketones or aldehydes as the products. Tertiary, secondary, and primary alcohols bearing a wide range of substituents are suitable substrates. Complex natural alcohols can also perform the transformation selectively. A investigation of the mechanism reveals a procedure that involves chlorine radical improved O-H homolysis, with the assistance of 2,4,6-collidine.

A mixture of two alkoxylates surfactants, one being an aryl aliphatic carbinol alkoxylate, the other one being a dialiphatic carbinol alkoxylate, said mixture being useful for stabilizing emulsions and dispersions used in agricultural or pharmaceutical formulations. The alkoxylates surfactants may serve as substitutes for nonylphenol ethoxylates (NPE) and tristyrylphenol ethoxylates (TSE).

The catalytic alkylation of ketones with alcohols via the hydrogen borrowing methodology (HB) has the potential to be a highly efficient approach for forming new carbon-carbon bonds. However, this transformation can result in more than one product being formed. The work reported here utilises bidentate triazole-carbene ligated iridium and rhodium complexes as catalysts for the selective formation of alkylated ketone or alcohol products. Switching from an iridium centre to a rhodium centre in the complex resulted in significant changes in product selectivity. Other factors-base, base loading, solvent and reaction temperature-were also investigated to tune the selectivity further. The optimised conditions were used to demonstrate the scope of the reaction across 17 ketones and 14 alcohols containing a variety of functional groups. A series of mechanistic investigations were performed to probe the reasons behind the product selectivity, including kinetic and deuterium studies.
Nickel-Catalyzed Alkylation of Ketone Enolates: Synthesis of Monoselective Linear Ketones
Das, Jagadish,Vellakkaran, Mari,Banerjee, Debasis
, p. 769 - 779 (2019/01/24)
Herein we have developed a Ni-catalyzed protocol for the synthesis of linear ketones. Aryl, alkyl, and heteroaryl ketones as well as alcohols yielded the monoselective ketones in up to 90% yield. The catalytic protocol was successfully applied in to a gram-scale synthesis. For a practical utility, applications of a steroid derivative, oleyl alcohol, and naproxen alcohol were employed. Preliminary catalytic investigations involving the isolation of a Ni intermediate and defined Ni-H species as well as a series of deuterium-labeling experiments were performed.

Page/Page column 66; 67; 69, (2019/01/08)
The present invention pertains to a process for the cross-ketonization (Piria reaction) between an aryl carboxylic acid and an aliphatic carboxylic acid using a metal-based compound and a slight or a moderate excess of aryl carboxylic acid. A good selectivity, up to 99 mol %, can be achieved. The aryl aliphatic ketone can be used for the preparation of surfactants and other downstream products.
NiH-Catalyzed Reductive Relay Hydroalkylation: A Strategy for the Remote C(sp3)?H Alkylation of Alkenes
Zhou, Fang,Zhu, Jin,Zhang, Yao,Zhu, Shaolin
supporting information, p. 4058 - 4062 (2018/03/21)
The terminal-selective, remote C(sp3)?H alkylation of alkenes was achieved by a relay process combining NiH-catalyzed hydrometalation, chain walking, and alkylation. This method enables the construction of unfunctionalized C(sp3)?C(sp3) bonds under mild conditions from two simple feedstock chemicals, namely olefins and alkyl halides. The practical value of this transformation is further demonstrated by the large-scale and regioconvergent alkylation of isomeric mixtures of olefins at low catalyst loadings.

Paragraph 0070; 0071, (2017/10/13)
The invention discloses a method for synthesizing aromatic aldehyde, aromatic ketone and aromatic ester through catalytically oxidizing an alkyl aromatic compound by iron, and belongs to the technical field of catalytic synthesis. According to the method, a low-cost and environment-friendly iron catalyst is used under a normal pressure; under the action of hydrogen and silicon reagents serving as an accelerant and an oxidant, a side chain of an aromatic hydrocarbon is oxidized into a carbonyl group for generating the corresponding aromatic aldehyde, aromatic ketone and aromatic ester. The method for preparing the aromatic aldehyde, the aromatic ketone and the aromatic ester through a catalytic oxidation reaction, which is provided by the invention, has numerous advantages that a catalyst, reaction raw materials, the oxidant and a silicon reagent are wide in sources and good in stability and is low-cost and environment-friendly; the alkyl aromatic compound is metered to participate in a reaction; the reaction condition is mild; the compatibility of functional groups is good; the scope of application is wide; the reaction selectivity is good; in an optimized reaction condition, the separation yield of a target product can be up to approximately 95 percent.

A palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling of activated amides with arylboronic acids has been developed via C–N bond cleavage. This approach demonstrated high tolerance to a variety of alkyl, aryl, heterocyclic and vinyl substituents. Unsymmetrical ketones could be achieved in excellent yield under mild conditions with 1% catalyst loadings. (Figure presented.).
MnO2/TBHP: A Versatile and User-Friendly Combination of Reagents for the Oxidation of Allylic and Benzylic Methylene Functional Groups
Serra, Stefano
, p. 6472 - 6478 (2015/10/19)
In the presence of activated MnO2, tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) in CH2Cl2 is able to oxidize the allylic and benzylic methylene groups of different classes of compounds. I describe a one-pot oxidation protocol based on two sequential steps. In the first step, carried out at low temperature, MnO2 catalyses the oxidation of the methylene group. This is followed by a second step where reaction temperature is increased, allowing MnO2 both to catalyse the decomposition of unreacted TBHP and to oxidize allylic alcohols that could possibly be formed. The proposed oxidation procedure is generally applicable, although its efficiency, regioselectivity, and chemoselectivity are strongly dependent on the structure of the substrate. A simple and user-friendly synthetic procedure for the oxidation of allylic and benzylic methylene groups to the corresponding conjugated carbonyl derivatives is described. The proposed oxidation protocol is based on the combined use of MnO2 and tert-butyl hydroperoxide, and is generally applicable.
