[PMID: 38385585 DOI: 10.1002/anie.202400741] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2024] [Revised: 02/12/2024] [Accepted: 02/21/2024] [Indexed: 02/23/2024]
Abstract
To date, it remains challenging to achieve a general and catalytic α-arylation of cyclic 1,3-dicarbonyls, particularly ubiquitous heteroaromatic ones. In most cases, the preparation of their medically significant arylated derivatives requires multistep synthetic sequences. Herein, we introduce a new, convenient strategy involving the conversion of cyclic 1,3-dicarbonyls to cyclic iodonium ylides (CIYs), followed by rhodium-catalyzed α-arylation with arylboronic reagents via carbene coupling. This approach is mild, operationally simple, base-free, biocompatible, and exhibits broad substrate scope (>100 examples), especially with respect to various heteroaromatic 1,3-dicarbonyls and ortho-substituted or base-sensitive arylboronic acids. Importantly, owing to the excellent compatibility with various arylboronic acids or boronate esters (ArBpin, ArBneop, or ArBF3K), this method allows the late-stage installation of heterocyclic 1,3-dicarbonyl motifs in highly complex settings. The utility of this transformation is further demonstrated through significantly simplifying the synthesis of several bioactive molecules and natural products.

Abstract
We describe a Cu-catalyzed cross-electrophilic coupling reaction for synthesizing α-amino acid derivatives from α-diazoesters with O-benzoyl hydroxylamines with Cu(OAc)2 as the catalyst and polymethylhydrosilane (PMHS) as the hydride reagent. Excellent functional group compatibilities were demonstrated. With ethyl 2-diazo-3-oxobutanoate as the precursor, a Cu-acetoacetate complex has been characterized by ESI-MS analysis. Results from the radical trap experiments are consistent with the intermediacy of nitrogen-centered radicals. This strategy offers a simple and inexpensive synthesis of α-amino acid derivatives.

Abstract
A reaction for H-F bond insertion into α-diazo carbonyl compounds is reported. The protocol describes a simple reaction setup employing commercially available HF·pyr (Olah reagent) as the fluorine source. The method is rapid and practical, and allows access to a broad range of α-fluorinated carbonyl compounds in generally good yields.

Abstract
Conversion of carbonyl compounds, including aldehydes, ketones and carboxylic acids, into functionalized alkanes via deoxygenation would be highly desirable from a sustainability perspective and very enabling in chemical synthesis. This review covers the recent methodology development in carbonyl and carboxyl deoxygenative functionalizations, highlighting some typical and significant contributions in this field. These advances will be categorized based on types of bond formation, and in each part, selected examples will be discussed from their generalized mechanistic perspectives. Four summarized reactivity modes of aldehydes and ketones during the deoxygenation, namely, bis-electrophile, carbenoid, bis-nucleophile and alkyl radical, are presented, while the carboxylic acids are deoxygenated mainly via activated carbonyl or acetal intermediates.
