Re(VII) oxides catalyze the acetalization, monoperoxyacetalization, monothioacetalization and allylation of hemiacetals. The reactions, which take place under mild conditions and at low catalyst loadings, can be conducted using hemiacetals, the corresponding O-silyl ethers, and, in some cases, the acetal dimers. Aldehydes react under similar conditions to furnish good yields of dithioacetals. Reactions of hemiacetals with nitrogen nucleophiles are unsuccessful. 1,2-Dioxolan-3-ols (peroxyhemiacetals) undergo Re(VII)-promoted etherification but not allylation. Hydroperoxyacetals (1-alkoxyhydroperoxides) undergo selective exchange of the alkoxide group in the presence of either Re2O7 or a Brønsted acid.

An efficient 1,2-fluorine migration reaction was realized under Brønsted acid catalysis in the absence of an external fluorinating source. The high fluorine atom economy and very mild conditions make this reaction a promising protocol for the construction of the C–F bond.

Visible light irradiation to flavins in the presence of thiols and O2 provides Brønsted acidic species that can be used as efficient catalysts for thioacetalizations and for Mannich-type reactions under non-irradiation and mild conditions.

The synthesis of oxazolines using electrophilic cyclization of allylic amide is a simple and powerful method. However, cyclization involving arylsulfenylation requires harsh reaction conditions. We found that the reaction proceeds under mild heating conditions with the combination of a Brønsted acid and tetrabutylammonium chloride. This method enabled the synthesis of 5-[(arylsulfenyl)methyl]oxazoline derivatives under mild conditions and demonstrated high tolerance for various functional groups.

The Pd - tppts - HOTs (tppts = P(C6H4-m-SO3Na)3, HOTs = p-toluenesulfonic acid) catalyzed hydrocarboxylation of N-allylacetamide in an aqueous medium afforded 4-acetamidobutyric acid and 3-acetamido-2-methylpropanoic acid under mild conditions, with a high regioselectivity towards the linear isomer. During the hydrocarboxylation an acid catalyzed hydrolysis of the amide moieties of both the substrate and the products took place, as well as the formation of acetamide and propanal, presumably via a Pd-catalyzed allylic substitution reaction of N-allylacetamide. The hydrolysis reaction was suppressed by lowering the amount of Brønsted acid cocatalyst (HOTs) or by employing a weaker Brønsted acid such as propanoic acid. The allylic substitution reaction was minimized by increasing the CO pressure but unfortunately this caused a decrease in the regioselectivity. A sudden inhibition took place after ca. 70% conversion, presumably caused by one of the side products. By increasing the tppts concentration to 13.1 mmol L-1 (20 equiv per Pd) the inhibition was circumvented and a quantitative conversion of N-allylacetamide was achieved.Key words: aqueous media, olefins, palladium, hydrocarboxylation, N-allylacetamide.

AbstractTwo approaches involving intramolecular and intermolecular cyclization, respectively, have been developed for the direct and practical construction of a series of important benzo[f]pyrrolo[1,2-a][1,4]azepines by using Brønsted acid catalysts. Upon catalysis by TsOH, the intramolecular dehydroxylation/ring closure of 3-hydroxy-2-[2-(1H-pyrrol-1-yl)benzyl]isoindolin-1-ones provided various racemic benzo[f]pyrrolo[1,2-a][1,4]azepines in high yields. Furthermore, enantioenriched benzo[f]pyrrolo[1,2-a][1,4]azepines were also obtained by chiral phosphoric acid catalyzed intermolecular addition of [2-(1H-pyrrol-1-yl)phenyl]methanamines to 2-formylbenzoates under mild conditions.
