Copper-Catalyzed Three-Component Carboazidation of Alkenes with Acetonitrile and Sodium Azide

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Ala Bunescu, Minh Tu Ha

A copper-catalyzed three-component reaction of alkenes, acetonitrile, and sodium azide afforded gamma-azido alkyl nitriles by formation of one C(sp3)-C(sp3) bond and one C(sp3)-N bond. The transformation allows concomitant introduction of two highly versat ...

Pd-Catalyzed Dehydrogenative Aryl−Aryl Bond Formation via Double C(sp2)−H Bond Activation: Efficient Synthesis of [3,4]-Fused Oxindoles

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Ala Bunescu

A Pd(0)-catalyzed double cyclization of easily available o-bromoanilides leading to strained [3,4]-fused oxindoles was developed. The reaction proceeded through a highly ordered sequence involving key carbopalladation, 1,4-Pd migration, and C(sp2)−H functi ...

Copper-Catalyzed Cyanomethylation of Allylic Alcohols with Concomitant 1,2-Aryl Migration: Efficient Synthesis of Functionalized Ketones Containing an α-Quaternary Center

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Ala Bunescu

A copper-catalyzed alkylation of allylic alcohols by alkyl nitriles with concomitant 1,2-aryl migration was developed. Formation of the alkyl nitrile radical was followed by its intermolecular addition to alkenes and the migration of a vicinal aryl group w ...
