Photoredox-Catalyzed Dehydrogenative Csp3-Csp2Cross-Coupling of Alkylarenes to Aldehydes in Flow

Executing photoredox reactions in flow offers solutions to frequently encountered issues regarding reproducibility, reaction time, and scale-up. Here, we report the transfer of a photoredox-catalyzed benzylic coupling of alkylarenes to aldehydes to a flow chemistry setting leading to improvements in terms of higher concentration, shorter residence times, better yields, ease of catalyst preparation, and enhanced substrate scope. Its applicability has been demonstrated by a multi-gram-scale reaction using high-power light-emitting diodes (LEDs), late-stage functionalization of selected active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), and also a photocatalyst recycling method.

Palladium-catalyzed mono-α-arylation of acetone with aryl imidazolylsulfonates

Set the ace(tone): A palladium catalyst derived from the bidentate XantPhos ligand and Pd(OAc)2 has enabled broadly applicable mono-α-arylations of acetone to be performed with air- and moisture-stable aryl imidazolylsulfonates as most user-friendly electrophiles (see scheme). Copyright

Photolysis of 5,5-dibenzyl-Δ3-1,3,4-oxadiaiolines

Photolysis of dibenzyl-Δ3-1,3,4-oxadiazolines (3) in the presence of dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate (DMAD) gives only modest yields of the expected symmetrical 3,3-dibenzylcyclopropenes (4), but these are accompanied by more than six by-products, including unsymmetrical cyclopropenes, methylenecyclopropanes, and various pyrazoles. The origin of this array of products can be explained by a series of steps starting with photolysis of 3 to form a diazoalkane that undergoes 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition to DMAD, generating a 3H-pyrazole as initial product. The latter is further photolyzed to a symmetrical cyclopropene in competition with benzyl group migration by thermal 1,5-sigmatropic or ion-pair rearrangement to afford a 4H-pyrazole. The 4H-pyrazole in turn undergoes photolysis to an unsymmetrical cyclopropene, which rearranges to a methylenecyclopropane. The 4H-pyrazole also undergoes autoxidation, in the presence of air, to afford a benzoyl-4H-pyrazole. Additionally, in competition with rearrangement, the various pyrazoles lose a benzyl group or a methoxycarbonyl group to afford pyrazoles with one less substituent.
