Herein reported is a photocatalytic cycloaddition reaction of triarylphosphines with alkynes. Phosphonium salts of unique bicyclic structures are synthesized through a radical pathway under mild reaction conditions. The phosphonium salts are subjected to the Wittig olefination reaction to afford structurally interesting phosphine oxides.

A new application of the Wittig reaction to the preparation of olefins of low molecular weight which allows selective labelling in the vinyl or allyl positions with isotopes of hydrogen and carbon has been developed. Using the modification of the Wittig reaction introduced by E. J. Corey, in which a solution of the methylsulfinyl carbanion in dimethyl sulfoxide serves as the base, a series of olefins from C2 to C8 were synthesized. The synthesis was applied to the preparation of the following labelled compounds: 5-methylene-14C-bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-ene; propene-1-14C; 1-butene-1-14C; propene-1-d1; 2-methylpropene-1,1-d2; 2-methyl-d3-propene-3,3,3-d3; 2-methyl-2-butene-4,4,4-d3; 2-methyl-d3-2-butene-1,1,1-d3; methylene-d2-cyclohexane. For the synthesis of carbon-labelled olefins the reaction has few limitations since the intermediates and products are isotopically stable under the reaction conditions. Deuterium-labelled olefins can be obtained from deuterated formaldehyde or β-deuterated phosphonium salts, but α-deuteroketones and aldehydes and α-deuterophosphonium salts lose the isotope to the solvent.In all the Wittig reactions, benzene was formed as a by-product in 10–15% yield. The mechanism of benzene formation is probably analogous to that proposed by Seyferth involving the decomposition of a pentacovalent phosphorous intermediate.

<div> <p>One of the most efficient ways to synthesize oxetanes is the light-enabled [2+2] cycloaddition reaction of carbonyls and alkenes, referred to as the Paternò-Büchi reaction. The reaction conditions for this transformation typically require the use of high energy UV light to excite the carbonyl, limiting the applications, safety, and scalability. We herein report the development of a visible light-mediated Paternò-Büchi reaction protocol that relies on triplet energy transfer from an iridium-based photocatalyst to the carbonyl substrates. This mode of activation is demonstrated for a variety of aryl glyoxylates and negates the need for both, visible light-absorbing carbonyl starting materials or UV light to enable access to a variety of functionalized oxetanes in up to 99% yield.</p> </div> <br>

This review covers all known examples of [3 + 2]-cycloaddition between sydnones and both terminal as well as internal alkynes/cycloalkynes taken from literature since its discovery by Huisgen in 1962 up to the current date. Except enumeration of synthetic applications it also covers mechanistic studies, catalysis, effects of substituents and reaction conditions influencing reaction rate and regioselectivity.

Hydroxyl- and carboxyl-functionalized imidazolium halides are used as efficient bifunctional organocatalysts for the synthesis of cyclic carbonates from CO2 and epoxides under mild reaction conditions. Control experiments suggest that the cycloaddition reaction is realized by the combination of the nucleophilic halide anions with hydroxyl and carboxyl groups as hydrogen bond donors. Moreover, the bifunctional organocatalysts can be easily recycled five times by simple filtration; however, a loss of activity was observed.

The reduction of the representative greenhouse gas, carbon dioxide (CO2), is significantly an important theme for the current research in the modern chemical world. For the last two decades, the development of new metal-organic framework (MOF) systems with highly selective capture of CO2, in the presence of other competing gaseous molecules, has flourished to capture or separate CO2 for environmental protection. Nonetheless, the ultimate resolution to lessen the atmospheric CO2 concentration may be in the chemical or electrochemical conversion of CO2 to other compounds. In this context, the catalytic cycloaddition reaction of CO2 into organic epoxides to produce cyclic carbonates is a more attractive method. MOFs are being proven as efficient heterogeneous catalytic systems for this important reaction. In this review, we collected very recent progress in MOF-based catalytic systems, fully operable under very mild reaction conditions (room temperature and 1 atm CO2).

Organoammonium salts of dipeptide-derived chiral triamines or diamines with TfOH catalyzed the enantioselective 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions of α-acyloxyacroleins with nitrones to give the corresponding adducts in good yields (up to 96%) and with high diastereo- and enantioselectivities (up to 89% ee). Although α-(p-methoxybenzoyloxy)acrolein is rather unstable under the reaction conditions, α-(3-pyrroline-1-carbonyloxy)acrolein is stable enough to be smoothly converted into the corresponding adducts with the aid of the chiral organoammonium salt catalysts.

‘Click reactions’ are the copper catalysed dipolar cycloaddition reaction of azides and alkynes to incorporate nitrogens into a cyclic hydrocarbon scaffold forming a triazole ring. Owing to its efficiency and versatility, this reaction and the products, triazole-containing heterocycles, have immense importance in medicinal chemistry. Copper is the only known catalyst to carry out this reaction, the mechanism of which remains unclear. We report here that the ‘click reactions’ can also be catalysed by silver halides in non-aqueous medium. It constitutes an alternative to the well-known CuAAC click reaction. The yield of the reaction varies on the type of counter ion present in the silver salt. This reaction exhibits significant features, such as high regioselectivity, mild reaction conditions, easy availability of substrates and reasonably good yields. In this communication, the findings of a new catalyst along with the effect of solvent and counter ions will help to decipher the still obscure mechanism of this important reaction.
