Oxidative rearrangement of 1,1-disubstituted alkenes to ketones
Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Qiang Feng
The Wacker process, which is widely used to convert monosubstituted alkenes into the corresponding methyl ketones, is thought to proceed through a PdII/Pd0 catalytic cycle involving a b-hydride elimination step. This mechanistic scenario is inapplicable to ...
2023New Vinylation and Alkynylation Strategies with Hypervalent Iodine Reagents and Diazo Compounds
The development of a sequential copper-catalyzed oxy-alkynylation/intramolecular [4+2] cycloaddition of allenes and arenes was investigated at first. This one-pot protocol allowed the construction of complex polycylic architectures with high efficiency fro ...
EPFL2021Intermolecular oxidative amination of unactivated alkenes by dual photoredox and copper catalysis
Oxidative amination of alkenes via amidyl radical addition is potentially an efficient method to generate allylic amines, which are versatile synthetic intermediates to bioactive compounds and organic materials. Here by combining photochemical generation o ...
ROYAL SOC CHEMISTRY2021Synthetic methodologies for C-C and C-N bond formation involving alkyl radicals
C-C and C-N bonds are some of the most common structures in molecules ranging from drugs to catalysts and to food additives. Many coupling reactions were developed to form these types of bonds with excellent selectivity and good performance. Still, the syn ...
EPFL2020Enantioselective C(sp(3))-C(sp(3)) cross-coupling of non-activated alkyl electrophiles via nickel hydride catalysis
Xile Hu, Runze Mao, Srikrishna Bera
Cross-coupling of two alkyl fragments is an efficient method to produce organic molecules rich in sp(3)-hybridized carbon centres, which are attractive candidate compounds in drug discovery. Enantioselective C(sp(3))-C(sp(3)) coupling is challenging, espec ...
NATURE RESEARCH2020Palladium Catalysed Intramolecular Carbo-oxygenation of Propargylic Amines to Access 1,2-Amino Alcohols and alpha-Amino Ketones via in situ Tether Formation
Phillip Gulliver Dominic Greenwood
a-Amino ketones and 1,2-amino alcohols are important structural motifs in organic chemistry, that
can be observed in natural products, pharmaceutically and bioactive compounds. For these reasons,
they constitute privileged targets for the development of ne ...
EPFL2020Accessing the plus IV Oxidation State in Molecular Complexes of Praseodymium
Marinella Mazzanti, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Ivica Zivkovic
Out of the 14 lanthanide (Ln) ions, molecular complexes of Ln(IV) were known only for cerium and more recently terbium. Here we demonstrate that the +IV oxidation state is also accessible for the large praseodymium (Pr) cation. The oxidation of the tetraki ...
2020Copper(I) Based Photoredox Chemistry
Photoredox catalysis has become a powerful tool for chemists. However, the reliance on expensive Ir and Ru based photoredox catalysts (PC) motivates research for more sustainable options. Copper complexes based on favorable photophysical properties, high a ...
EPFL2020Nickamine and Analogous Nickel Pincer Catalysts for Cross-Coupling of Alkyl Halides and Hydrosilylation of Alkenes
Xile Hu, Zhikun Zhang, Renyi Shi
CONSPECTUS: Ligand development plays an essential role in the advance of homogeneous catalysis. Tridentate, meridionally coordinating ligands, commonly termed pincer ligands, have been established as a privileged class of ligands in catalysis because they ...
