, p. 1083 - 1084 (1983)
Lithium pentamethyldisilanyldiazomethane, prepared from pentamethyldisilanyldiazomethane and lithium diisopropylamide, reacts with acid chlorides to give pentamethyldisilanyldiazoketones in good yields.

The photoinduced, multicomponent reaction of α-diazoketones, silanols, and isocyanides affords α-silyloxy acrylamides, formally derived from α-keto amides. The presence of a secondary amido group makes classic preparative methods for silyl enol ethers unfeasible in this case, while the mild conditions required by this photochemical approach allow their synthesis in good yields; moreover, the general structure can be easily modified by varying each component of the multicomponent reaction. Fine-tuning of the reaction conditions (i.e., solvents, radiation, additives) can be exploited to obtain complete Z selectivity. The reactivity of this overlooked class of silyl enol ethers has been investigated, and features that could pave the way to new applications have been found.

The application of enantiomerically-pure ruthenium(II) catalysts containing N - functionalised TsDPEN ligand to the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of 15 examples of α-heterocyclic acetophenone derivatives is reported. Products of up to 99% ee were formed.

The ability to manipulate C-C bonds for selective chemical transformations is challenging and represents a growing area of research. Here, we report a formal insertion of diazo compounds into the "unactivated"C-C bond of benzyl bromide derivatives catalyzed by a simple Lewis acid. The homologation reaction proceeds via the intermediacy of a phenonium ion, and the products contain benzylic quaternary centers and an alkyl bromide amenable to further derivatization. Computational analysis provides critical insight into the reaction mechanism, in particular the key selectivity-determining step.
NovelN-transfer reagent for converting α-amino acid derivatives to α-diazo compounds

A novel universalN-transfer reagent for direct and effective transformation of α-amino ketones, acetamides, and esters to the corresponding α-diazo products under mild basic conditions has been developed. This one-step synthetic approach not only allows for generation of α-substituted-α-diazo carbonyl compounds from α-amino acid derivatives but also permits preparation of α-diazo dipeptides fromN-terminal dipeptides (32 examples, up to 91%).
