A novel series of bis Indy-NHC gold complexes have been developed and investigated via a mild Ag-carbene transfer route. The obtained complexes were characterized by NMR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis. The catalytic property of these gold complexes was further evaluated in the oxidation of benzylic. The gold complex E1 showed a high catalytic activity in the oxidation of various benzylic substrates, resulting in the corresponding carbonyl compounds with excellent yields using TBHP as oxidant.

Nucleophilic aromatic fluorination (SNAr) is among the most common methods for the formation of C(sp2)-F bonds. Despite many recent advances, a long-standing limitation of these transformations is the requirement for rigorously dry, aprotic conditions to maintain the nucleophilicity of fluoride and suppress the generation of side products. This report addresses this challenge by leveraging tetramethylammonium fluoride alcohol adducts (Me4NF·ROH) as fluoride sources for SNAr fluorination. Through systematic tuning of the alcohol substituent (R), tetramethylammonium fluoride tert-amyl alcohol (Me4NF·t-AmylOH) was identified as an inexpensive, practical, and bench-stable reagent for SNAr fluorination under mild and convenient conditions (80 °C in DMSO, without the requirement for drying of reagents or solvent). A substrate scope of more than 50 (hetero) aryl halides and nitroarene electrophiles is demonstrated.

Compounds a containing bicyclo[1.1.1]pentane (BCP) adjacent to a chiral center can be prepared with high enantiomeric excess through asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (ATH) of adjacent ketones. In the reduction step, the BCP occupies the position distant from the η6-arene of the catalyst. The reduction was applied to the synthesis of a BCP analogue of the antihistamine drug neobenodine.
