I-2-catalyzed oxo-acyloxylation of alkenes and enol ethers with carboxylic acids providing for the high yield synthesis of a-acyloxyketones and esters is described. This unprecedented regioselective oxidative process employs TBHP and Et3N in stoichiometric amounts under metal-free conditions in DMSO as solvent. Additionally, I-2-catalysis allows the direct hydroxy-acyloxylation of alkenes with the sequential addition of BH3 center dot SMe2 leading to monoprotected diol derivatives in excellent yields.
Enantioselective Synthesis of Cyclic Sulfamidates via Pd-Catalyzed Hydrogenation
Using Pd(CF3CO2)(2)/(SS)-f-binaphane as the catalyst, an efficient enantioselective synthesis of cyclic sulfamidates was developed via asymmetric hydrogenation of the corresponding cyclic imines in 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol at room temperature with high enantioselectivities (up to 99% ee).
