The pinacol coupling is one of the most significant methods to synthesize vic-diols. The combination of samarium diiodide (SmI2) and samarium metal successfully induces the selective pinacol couplings of not only aromatic aldehydes and ketones but also aliphatic ones in the presence of trimethylchlorosilane (Me3SiCl) in 1,2-dimethoxyethane (DME). DME is the most suitable solvent for the reduction system

% CBZ6)-catalyzed reductive (pinacol) coupling of aldehydes, ketones, and imines has been developed. Irradiated by purple light (407 nm) using triethylamine as an electron donor, a variety of 1,2-diols and 1,2-diamines could be prepared. The oxidation potential of the excited state of CBZ6 is established as −1.92 V (vs saturated calomel electrode (SCE)). The relative high reductive potential enables
A mild procedure for the reduction of electron-deficient alkenes and carbonyl compounds is described. UVA irradiations of substituted maleimides with dispersions of titania (Aeroxide P25) in methanol/acetonitrile (1:9) solvent under dry anoxic conditions led to hydrogenation and production of the corresponding succinimides. Aromatic and heteroaromatic aldehydes were reduced to primary alcohols in similar titania photocatalyzed reactions. A mechanism is proposed which involves two proton-coupled electron transfers to the substrates at the titania surface.
with readily prepared cobalt or titanium nanoparticles, under mild reaction conditions, led to the obtention of different reductive dimerization products depending on the nature of the transition metal used. Cobalt nanoparticles (CoNPs) allowed the selective transformation of the starting carbonylcompounds into vicinal diols, whereas the reaction promoted by titanium nanoparticles (TiNPs) led to the
of manganese as a mediator for allylations and pinacol couplings in aqueousmedia was investigated. The combination of manganese and copper is found to be a highly effective mediator for the allylation of aryl aldehydes in water. Such a combination is found to be more reactive than other previously reported metals in aqueousmedia. No reaction was observed with either manganese or copper alone as the
