A general method for regioselective C3-benzylation of indoles has been developed. Various 3-substituted indoles and benzyl methyl carbonates with different electronic properties react under mild conditions to afford a diverse range of 3-benzylindolenine products in good yields.

Double trouble: A highly efficient visible-light-enabled carboxylation of benzyl alcohol derivatives using CO2 is achieved with a Pd/Ir dual catalyst. A variety of benzyl carboxylic acids and esters can be prepared from the corresponding benzyl alcohol derivatives with high efficiency. By changing the Pd catalyst, switchable site-selective carboxylation between benzylic C−O and aryl C−Cl moieties is
双重麻烦:使用Pd/Ir 双催化剂实现了使用 CO 2对苯甲醇衍生物进行高效可见光羧化。由相应的苄醇衍生物可以高效地制备多种苄基羧酸和酯。通过改变 Pd 催化剂,可以在苄基 C-O 和芳基 C-Cl 部分之间进行可切换的位点选择性羧化。
Palladium-catalyzed substitution of esters of naphthylmethanols, 1-naphthylethanols, and analogues by sodium dimethyl malonate. Stereoselective synthesis from enantiomerically pure substrates
The palladium-catalyzed substitution of carbonates of the titled alcohols was performed at lower temperature than the previously reported reaction of the corresponding acetates. The use of enantiomericallypure carbonates gave substitution products with overall retention of the configuration (up to 97%).

Sodium aluminate is presented as a highlyactive heterogeneous catalyst that is able to convert a range of alcohols into the corresponding unsymmetrical carbonate esters by reaction with dimethyl carbonate. Preparing NaAlO2 via spray drying boosts the basic properties and the activity of the catalyst.

Ligand-controlled palladium-catalyzed divergent synthesis of isonitriles and nitriles from benzylic carbonates and TMSCN has been developed. The BINAP- or DPEphos-ligated palladium catalyst selectively provides the corresponding benzylic isonitriles, whereas their regioisomers, benzylic nitriles, are formed exclusively under phosphine ligand-free conditions. Mechanistic studies reveal that isonitrile
Naphthylmethyl acetates 1a and 2a were substituted by morpholine in DMPU in the presence of 2 mol% of [Pd(dba)(2) + 15 dppe] to give products 9-10 in 66-70% isolated yield. In DMF in the presence of benzylamine, N,N-dimethylnaphthylmethylamines 11-12 were produced in 78-85% isolated yield. Copyright (C) 1996 Elsevier Science Ltd
