and direct transformation of carboxamides are two exciting areas that have attracted considerable attention in recent years. We report herein that secondaryamides, the least reactive derivatives of carbonyl compounds, upon activated with triflic anhydride, can serve as effective hydroacylating reagents in partner with alkenes to yield ketones at ambient temperature. The method was applied to the one‐step

Chiral phosphoric-acid-catalyzed asymmetric reductions of trans-chalcones have been investigated in this work. A BINOL-derived boro-phosphate-catalyzed asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of the carbon–carbon double bond of trans-chalcone derivatives employing borane as a hydride source was realized. This methodology provides a convenient procedure to accesschiral dihydrochalone derivatives in high

Control of 1,2- versus 1,4-addition of organometallic reagents to enones remains a long-standing problem. There is still no satisfactory 1,2-directing agent comparable to the 1,4-directing effect of copper salts. We report that the presence of just 5 mol% indium(III) chloride can significantly alter the amount of 1,2-product formed in these reactions.

borrowing hydrogen strategy has been applied in the synthesis of β-branched carbonylcompounds. Various secondary benzylic and aliphatic alcohols have been used as alkylating reagents under mild reaction conditions. The ketones have been isolated in good to excellent yield. Deuterium labeling experiments provide evidence that the alcohol is the hydride source in this reaction and that no reversible step or

The reaction of enolacetates with alcohols in the presence of a catalytic amount of a rhenium complex, such as ReBr(CO)5, produced the corresponding ketones and aldehydes in moderate to good yields. It was suggested that the preparation of an ether, an intermolecular dehydrated product, was the first step of the reaction.
