Photochemical Activation of Aromatic Aldehydes: Synthesis of Amides, Hydroxamic Acids and Esters

A cheap, facile and metal-free photochemical protocol for the activation of aromatic aldehydes has been developed. Utilizing thioxanthen-9-one as the photocatalyst and cheap household lamps as the light source, a variety of aromatic aldehydes have been activated and subsequently converted in a one-pot reaction into amides, hydroxamic acids and esters in good to high yields. The applicability of this method was highlighted in the synthesis of Moclobemide, a drug against depression and social anxiety. Extended and detailed mechanistic studies have been conducted, in order to determine a plausible mechanism for the reaction.

Palladium-Catalyzed Carbonylative Synthesis of Benzyl Benzoates Employing Benzyl Formates as Both CO Surrogates and Benzyl Alcohol Sources

An efficient and convenient palladium-catalyzed carbonylation reaction for the synthesis of benzyl benzoates from aryl bromides has been developed. Benzyl formates have been explored as a new type of efficient and useful CO sources and also reaction partners. A wide range of benzyl benzoates was obtained in good to excellent yields.

Reusable ionic liquid-catalyzed oxidative esterification of carboxylic acids with benzylic hydrocarbons via benzylic Csp3-H bond activation under metal-free conditions

A metal-free protocol for the direct oxidative esterification of the Csp3-H bond in benzylic hydrocarbons with carboxylic acids using heterocyclic ionic liquid as catalyst has been reported. The catalyst 1-butylpyridinium iodide could be easily recycled and reused for at least four cycles without obvious loss of catalytic activity.
