Ni/photoredox catalysis has emerged as a powerful platform for C(sp2)–C(sp3) bond formation. While many of these methods typically employ aryl bromides as the C(sp2) coupling partner, a variety of aliphatic radical sources have been investigated. In principle, these reactions enable access to the same product scaffolds, but it can be hard to discern which method to employ because nonstandardized sets of aryl bromides are used in scope evaluation. Herein, we report a Ni/photoredox-catalyzed (deutero)methylation and alkylation of aryl halides where benzaldehyde di(alkyl) acetals serve as alcohol-derived radical sources. Reaction development, mechanistic studies, and late-stage derivatization of a biologically relevant aryl chloride, fenofibrate, are presented. Then, we describe the integration of data science techniques, including DFT featurization, dimensionality reduction, and hierarchical clustering, to delineate a diverse and succinct collection of aryl bromides that is representative of the chemical space of the substrate class. By superimposing scope examples from published Ni/photoredox methods on this same chemical space, we identify areas of sparse coverage and high versus low average yields, enabling comparisons between prior art and this new method. Additionally, we demonstrate that the systematically selected scope of aryl bromides can be used to quantify population-wide reactivity trends and reveal sources of possible functional group incompatibility with supervised machine learning.

A copper-promoted cyanation of aryl iodides has been successfully developed by using N,N-dimethyl aminomalononitrile as the cyanide source with moderate toxicity and better stability. This reaction features broad substrate scope, excellent reaction yields, readily available catalyst, and simple reaction conditions.

Abstract: One-pot condensation of pyrazole-4-aldehydes and hydroxylamine hydrochloride to form the corresponding oxime using formic acid as a medium and further dehydration of oxime using a catalytic amount of orthophosphoric acid to afford novel pyrazole-4-carbonitrile. This protocol serves as an ortho-phosphoric acid-catalyzed one-pot conversion of aldehyde to nitrile. Most remarkable features of this method are metal-free, cost-effective, atom efficiency with excellent yield (98–99%). This process will serve as a robust and scalable tool for the synthesis of valuable and versatile precursor (nitriles). This precursor will pave the way for the synthesis of various medicinally important valuable compounds. Graphic abstract: [Figure not available: see fulltext.].
