elements in many pharmaceutical agents and natural products. However, previously reported methods to prepare these compounds in an enantioselective manner are indirect and require multistep synthesis. Here, we report a copper-hydride-catalysed, enantioselectivesynthesis of γ- or δ-chiral amines from readily available allylic alcohols, esters and ethers using a reductive relay hydroamination strategy (a

the activation of aromatic aldehydes has been developed. Utilizing thioxanthen-9-one as the photocatalyst and cheap household lamps as the light source, a variety of aromatic aldehydes have been activated and subsequently converted in a one-pot reaction into amides, hydroxamic acids and esters in good to high yields. The applicability of this method was highlighted in the synthesis of Moclobemide, a
Silver nitrate‐catalyzed cascade decarboxylation and oxidativecyclization of α‐oxocarboxylic acids, alkenes, and aldehydes is demonstrated for the first time. With ammonium persulfate as the oxidant, the cascade reactions afford dihydroflavonoid derivatives as products in moderate to good yields, exhibiting a broad substrate tolerance. Control experiments indicated that the mechanism includes a radical
Silver-catalyzed Double Decarboxylative Radical Alkynylation/Annulation of Arylpropiolic Acids with α-keto Acids: Access to Ynones and Flavones under Mild Conditions
Ynones are privileged buildingblocks in various organic syntheses of heterocyclicderivatives due to their multifunctional nature, and flavones are an important class of natural products with a wide range of biological activities. We describe the catalytic double decarboxylative alkynylation of arylpropiolic acids with α‐keto acids. With Ag(I)/persulfate as the catalysis system, the valuable ynones
acylation of quinolines and isoquinolines is described by use of arylmethanols as the acylating agents through a C–C bondformation via an oxidative cross-dehydrogenativecoupling (CDC) strategy. This C-aroylation reaction was carried out by use of K2S2O8 as oxidant and methyltrioctylammonium chloride (Aliquat 336) as a transfer agent in MeCN at 80 °C under transition-metal-free conditions.
