Quick Installation of a 1,4-Difunctionality via Regioselective Nickel-Catalyzed Reductive Coupling of Ynoates and Aldehydes
摘要:
The development of efficient methods for the synthesis of molecules with 1,4-difunctionalities has been a dire need of the synthetic community. In this work, intermolecular reductive coupling of ynoates and aldehydes (in the presence of a silane) has been accomplished for the first time using catalytic amounts of Ni(COD)(2), an N-heterocyclic carbene ligand, and PPh3. High regioselectivity has been demonstrated for the multicomponent coupling reactions, and more than a dozen invaluable silyl-protected gamma-hydrox-alpha,beta-enoates have been synthesized. This methodology provides a quick entry to many other 1,4-difunctional compounds and oxygen-containing five-membered rings. The intermediacy of metallacycles in the catalytic process has been established by deuterium-labeling experiments.

The Pd-cataylsed direct ortho-C(sp2)–H fluorination of aromatic ketones has been developed for the first time. The reaction features good regioselectivity and simple operations, constituting an alternative shortcut to access fluorinated ketones. A concise synthesis of anacetrapib has also been achieved by using late-stage C–H fluorination as a key step.

formation of ketones, resulting from uncontrolled and undesired doublebondisomerization. By conducting the CM in the presence of phenol, the catalyst loading and the reaction time required for quantiative conversion can be reduced, and isomerization can be suppressed. On the other hand, consecutive isomerization can be deliberately promoted by evaporating excess methyl acrylate after completing cross

Photoredox‐catalyzed isomerization of γ‐carbonyl‐substituted allylicalcohols to their corresponding carbonyl compounds was achieved for the first time by C−H bond activation. This catalytic redox‐neutral process resulted in the synthesis of 1,4‐dicarbonyl compounds. Notably, allylicalcohols bearing tetrasubstituted olefins can also be transformed into their corresponding carbonyl compounds. Density
