AbstractThe development of straightforward synthesis of regio- and stereodefined alkenes with multiple aliphatic substituents under mild conditions is an unmet challenge owing to competitive β-hydride elimination and selectivity issues. Herein, we report the nickel-catalyzed intermolecular cross-dialkylation of alkynes devoid of directing or activating groups to afford multiple aliphatic substituted alkenes in a syn-selective fashion at room temperature. The combination of two-electron oxidative cyclometallation and single-electron cross-electrophile coupling of nickel enables the syn-cross-dialkylation of alkynes at room temperature. This reductive protocol enables the sequential installation of two different alkyl substituents onto alkynes in a regio- and stereo-selective manner, circumventing the tedious preformation of sensitive organometallic reagents. The synthetic utility of this protocol is demonstrated by efficient synthesis of multi-substituted unfunctionalized alkenes and diverse transformations of the product.

AbstractThe LANCA three-component reaction of lithiated alkoxy­allenes (LA), nitriles (N), and carboxylic acids (CA) smoothly provides β-alkoxy-β-ketoenamides in broad structural variety. The subsequent cyclocondensation of these compounds with hydroxylamine hydrochloride afforded a large library of pyrimidine N-oxides under mild conditions and in good yields. Their synthetic utility was further increased by the Boekelheide rearrangement leading to 4-acetoxymethyl-substituted pyrimidines. With trifluoroacetic anhydride the rearrangement proceeds even at room temperature and directly furnishes 4-hydroxymethyl-substituted pyrimidine derivatives. The key reactions are very robust and work well even in the presence of sterically demanding substituents.

A simple and efficient protocol for para-selective C–H amination of 1-naphthylamide derivatives under silver catalysis is described. This reaction system could proceed without the help of directing group and a broad range of substrates were proved to be well tolerated. In addition, control experiments suggested that this reaction might not proceed via a single-electron-transfer process.

2-Amino-4,5-dihydro-3-furancarbonitriles (ADFCs) have attracted much attention due to their utility as valuable synthetic intermediates for the preparation of a series of acyclic and cyclic organic compounds. On the other hand, indoles substituted with furans are highly interesting compounds displaying a wide range of biological and pharmaceutical activities. However, to the best of our knowledge, indole substituted 2-amino-4,5-dihydro-3-furancarbonitriles have not been previously reported. A new and efficient synthesis of indole substituted 2-amino-4,5-dihydro-3-furancarbonitriles has been developed in two steps using water as a solvent. The first step of the sequence involves threecomponent reaction of phenylglyoxals, indoles and malononitrile under aqueous and catalyst-free conditions for the synthesis of indole substituted β,β-dicyanoketones. Reduction of the obtained β,β- dicyanoketones with sodium borohydride in water at room temperature afforded the indole substituted 2-amino-4,5-dihydro-3-furancarbonitriles in good yields. Several substituted phenylglyooxals were reacted smoothly with indole or 2-methylindole and malononitrile to give the corresponding indole substituted β,β-dicyanoketones in good yields. Treatment of the obtained β,β-dicyanoketones with sodium borohydride in water furnished exclusively the indole substituted 2-amino-4,5-dihydro-3- furancarbonitriles in good yields. We have developed an efficient straightforward access to indole substituted β,β-dicyanoketones by one-pot three-component reaction of phenylglyoxals, indoles and malononitrile. The synthetic utility of obtained indole substituted β,β-dicyanoketones has been outlined by the preparation of indole substituted 2-amino-4,5-dihydro-3-furancarbonitriles. The advantage of catalyst-free, atom-economical and environmental benignity render it promising methods for preparation of indole substituted 2-amino-4,5-dihydro-3-furancarbonitriles.

A straightforward, mild and cost-efficient synthesis of various arylamides in water was accomplished using versatile benzotriazole chemistry. Acylation of various amines was achieved in water at room temperature as well as under microwave irradiation. The developed protocol unfolds the synthesis of amino acid aryl amides, drug conjugates and benzimidazoles. The environmentally friendly synthesis, short reaction time, simple workup, high yields, mild conditions and free of racemization are the key advantages of this protocol.

A weakly coordinating monodentate heteroaryl thioether directing group has been developed for use in Pd(II) catalysis to orchestrate key elementary steps in the catalytic cycle that require conformational flexibility in a manner that is difficult to accomplish with traditional strongly coordinating directing groups. This benzothiazole thioether, (BT)S, directing group can be used to promote oxidative Heck reactivity of internal alkenes providing a wide range of products in moderate to high yields. To demonstrate the broad applicability of this directing group, arene C–H olefination was also successfully developed. Reaction progress kinetic analysis provides insights into the role of the directing group in each reaction, which is supplemented with computational data for the oxidative Heck reaction. Furthermore, this (BT)S directing group can be transformed into a number of synthetically useful functional groups, including a sulfone for Julia olefination, allowing it to serve as a “masked olefin” directing group in synthetic planning. In order to demonstrate this synthetic utility, natural products (+)-salvianolic acid A and salvianolic acid F are formally synthesized using the (BT)S directed C–H olefination as the key step.
