A copper-catalyzed silylamination of α,β-unsaturated esters with silylboranes and hydroxylamines has been developed to afford the corresponding β-silyl-α-amino acid derivatives, which are of great interest in medicinal and pharmaceutical chemistry. Additionally, by using a suitable chiral bisphosphine ligand, the asymmetric induction is possible, delivering the optically active β-silyl-α-amino acids with synthetically acceptable diastereomeric ratios (55:45-82:18 dr) and high enantiomeric ratios (81:19-99:1 er).

Despite their prevalence in organic synthesis, the application of boronic acids (BAs) as alkyl radical precursors in visible-light-assisted photocatalyzed reactions has been limited by their high oxidation potential. This study demonstrates the prominent

A copper-catalysed regio- and stereoselective hydroamination of acrylates with hydrosilanes and hydroxylamines has been developed to afford the corresponding α-amino acids in good yields. The key to regioselectivity control is the use of hydroxylamine as
Photocatalyzed, β-Selective Hydrocarboxylation of α,β-Unsaturated Esters with CO2under Flow for β-Lactone Synthesis

A photocatalyzed, β-selective hydrocarboxylation of α,β-unsaturated esters employing CO2 radical anion generated under flow conditions was developed. A range of substrates bearing a variety of functional groups were tolerated, demonstrating chemoselectivity. A series of quaternary carboxylic acids were obtained from sterically demanding β,β-disubstituted alkenes including those derived from natural products. Mechanistic studies support a Giese-type CO2 radical anion conjugate addition followed by hydrogen atom transfer from (TMS)3SiH as the principal reaction pathway. Finally, a telescoped process involving the described β-carboxylation followed by a α-bromination/β-lactonization sequence provides a strategy for β-lactone synthesis.

1,2-Aryl migration of α,α-diaryl tertiary azides was achieved by using the catalytic system of FeCl2/N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) SIPr·HCl. The reaction generated aniline products in good yields after one-pot reduction of the migration-resultant imines.
Two-way homologation of aliphatic aldehydes: Both one-carbon shortening and lengthening via the same intermediate

Aliphatic aldehydes can be homologated to both one-carbon shorter and one-carbon longer homologous carbonyl compounds through the 2–4 steps of reactions via the same intermediates, β,γ-unsaturated α-nitrosulfones, prepared from the proline-catalyzed sequential reactions of several aliphatic aldehydes with phenylsulfonylnitromethane. While the oxidative cleavage of the key intermediates gave one-carbon less homologous carbonyl compounds, the reduction of the same key intermediates followed by an oxidation produced one-carbon more homologous carbonyl compounds.

The first cobalt-catalyzed deaminative alkoxycarbonylation reaction was described for the conversion of readily available primary alkyl amines to synthetically versatile esters with moderate to high yields. This transformation shows good functional group compatibility and can serve as a powerful tool for the modification of alkyl amine-containing complex natural products and drug molecules.

Metal-catalyzed intramolecular C?H amination of alkyl azides constitutes an appealing approach to alicyclic amines; challenges remain in broadening substrate scope, enhancing regioselectivity, and applying the method to natural product synthesis. Herein we report an iron(III) porphyrin bearing axial N-heterocyclic carbene ligands which catalyzes the intramolecular C(sp3)–H amination of a wide variety of alkyl azides under microwave-assisted and thermal conditions, resulting in selective amination of tertiary, benzylic, allylic, secondary, and primary C?H bonds with up to 95 % yield. 14 out of 17 substrates were cyclized selectively at C4 to give pyrrolidines. The regioselectivity at C4 or C5 could be tuned by modifying the reactivity of the C5–H bond. Mechanistic studies revealed a concerted or a fast re-bound mechanism for the amination reaction. The reaction has been applied to the syntheses of tropane, nicotine, cis-octahydroindole, and leelamine derivatives.

Substitution of silver complex of 2-chloro-7-(mesitylimidazolylidenylmethyl)naphthyridine (NpNHC) with palladium(II), rhodium(I) and iridium(I) metal precursors provided [Pd(C,N-NpNHC)(η3-allyl)](BF4) (5), RhCl(COD)(C-NpNHC) (6a) and IrCl(COD)(C-NpNHC) (6b), respectively. Abstraction of chloride from 6a and 6b with AgBF4 provided the chelation complexes [Rh(COD)(C,N-NpNHC)](BF4) (7a) and Ir(COD)(C,N-NpNHC)(BF4) (7b), respectively. All complexes were characterized using NMR and elemental analyses and the structural details of 5 and 6a were further confirmed using X-ray crystallography. In catalytic activity studies, complex 5 was found to be an effective catalyst in the hydrogen-transfer reduction of α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds into the corresponding saturated carbonyl compounds.
