A highly efficient CâC bond formation has been developed through the cross-coupling of primary and secondary alcohols. The corresponding functionalized ketones were obtained with an iridiumâCNP complex as a catalyst through the borrowing hydrogen strategy. The present methodology provides an easy alternative method to aldol reaction derivatives. More importantly, the complexes were also effective catalysts for the alkylation of an aromatic amine with a tertiary alkyl amine.

4-dihydropyridines via an acyl radical addition and hydrogen atom transfer pathway under photocatalyst-free conditions. The efficiency was highlighted by wide substrate scope, good to high yields, successful scale-up experiments, and expedient preparation of highly functionalized ketone derivatives. In addition, this protocol allows for the synthesis of 1,4-dicarbonyl compounds through alkene diacylation in the presence

An efficient electrochemical method for benzylic C(sp3)–H bond oxidation has been developed. A variety of methylarenes, methylheteroarenes, and benzylic (hetero)methylenes could be converted into the desired aryl aldehydes and aryl ketones in moderate to excellent yields in an undivided cell, using O2 as the oxygensource and lutidinium perchlorate as an electrolyte. On the basis of cyclic voltammetry

Cobalt-Catalyzed α-Alkylation of Ketones with Primary Alcohols
cobalt–PNP complex is developed for the efficient α-alkylation of ketones with primary alcohols for the first time. A broad range of ketone and alcohol substrates were employed, leading to the isolation of alkylated ketones with yields up to 98%. The method was successfully applied to the greener synthesis of quinoline derivatives while using 2-aminobenzyl alcohol as an alkylating reagent.

This report details a new method for site-selective methylene oxidation adjacent to azaheterocycles. A dual catalysis approach, utilizing both an iron Lewis acid and an organic hydroxylamine catalyst, proved highly effective. We demonstrate that this method provides complementary selectivity to other known catalytic approaches and represents an improvement over current heterocycle-selective reactions
