Indirect electrooxidation of alkynes 1 using ruthenium tetroxide as a mediator, leading to 1,2-diones 2 in 72-87%, is described. The electrolysis is carried out in the presence of a catalytic amount of ruthenium dioxide dihydrate in a two phase system of saturated aqueous sodium chloride and carbon tetrachloride. The overoxidation of 1,2-diones to the corresponding carboxylic acid, an unavoidable drawback generally encountered in the metal oxidation of acetylenes, is suppressed greatly by maintaining the pH of the aqueous phase at 4 and conducting the reaction at 0-5°C. The synthetic utility of this electrochemical oxidation is exemplified by the preparation of 2i (82%), a key intermediate for the synthesis of furaneol 4, from the commercially available 1i.

A Ni(II)-catalyzed unconventional Meyer–Schuster rearrangement (MSR) is paired with cross-coupling through inner-sphere acyloxy migration. Various propargyl acetates react with aryl boronic acids, leading to the formation of a range of α-arylated enone derivatives. This transformation is enabled by the use of a P∧N-type phosphinooxazoline (PHOX) ligand, which allows the substrate to coordinate with
Ni(II) 催化的非常规迈耶-舒斯特重排 (MSR) 通过内球酰氧基迁移与交叉偶联配对。各种乙酸炔丙酯与芳基硼酸反应,形成一系列 α-芳基化烯酮衍生物。这种转变是通过使用 P ∧ N 型膦基恶唑啉 (PHOX) 配体实现的,该配体允许底物与方形平面 Ni(II) 中心配位。它引发炔部分的芳基镍化,然后进行乙酸基团的分子内转位。这种非经典方法允许在 α 位添加富电子亲核试剂,而不需要氧化还原添加剂。一系列对照实验包括18O同位素标记研究和计算分析证实了内球酰氧基迁移。
Direct Access to Allenylphosphine Oxides via a Metal Free Coupling of Propargylic Substrates with P(O)H Compounds
A direct and convenient approach for the coupling of propargylic substrates with diphenylphosphine oxide in the presence of Tf2O and 2,6-lutidine has been developed. The method provides a general approach for the construction of attractive allenylphosphoryl skeletons with high atom and step economy under metal free conditions.
