A Rh-catalyzed chelation-assisted C6-selective C-H activation/alkylation of 2-pyridones with readily available alkyl carboxylic acids or anhydrides is introduced. The reaction proceeds via substrate decarbonylation. This approach merges C-H functionalization with readily available anhydrides, allowing for the efficient synthesis of various C6-alkylated 2-pyridones with good functional group tolerance.

We report herein an atroposelective N-acylation of sulfonamides using a commercially available isothiourea catalyst, (S)-HBTM, with a simple procedure. The N-sulfonyl anilide products can be obtained in good to high enantiopurity, which represents a new axially chiral scaffold. The application of the product as a chiral iodine catalyst is also demonstrated for the asymmetric α-oxytosylation of propiophenone.

An operationally simple isothiourea-catalysed acylative kinetic resolution of unprotected 1,1′-biaryl-2,2′-diol derivatives has been developed to allow access to axially chiral compounds in highly enantioenriched form (s values up to 190). Investigation of the reaction scope and limitations provided three key observations: i) the diol motif of the substrate was essential for good conversion and high s values; ii) the use of an α,α-disubstituted mixed anhydride (2,2-diphenylacetic pivalic anhydride) was critical to minimize diacylation and give high selectivity; iii) the presence of substituents in the 3,3′-positions of the diol hindered effective acylation. This final observation was exploited for the highly regioselective acylative kinetic resolution of unsymmetrical biaryl diol substrates bearing a single 3-substituent. Based on the key observations identified, acylation transition state models have been proposed to explain the atropselectivity of this kinetic resolution.
