A generalized, simple and efficient transfer hydrogenation of unsaturated bonds has been developed using HBPin and various proton reagents as hydrogen sources. The substrates, including alkenes, alkynes, aromatic heterocycles, aldehydes, ketones, imines, azo, nitro, epoxy and nitrile compounds, are all applied to this catalytic system. Various groups, which cannot survive under the Pd/C/H2 combination, are tolerated. The activity of the reactants was studied and the trends are as follows: styrene'diphenylmethanimine'benzaldehyde'azobenzene'nitrobenzene'quinoline'acetophenone'benzonitrile. Substrates bearing two or more different unsaturated bonds were also investigated and transfer hydrogenation occurred with excellent chemoselectivity. Nano-palladium catalyst in situ generated from Pd(OAc)2 and HBPin extremely improved the TH efficiency. Furthermore, chemoselective anti-Markovnikov hydrodeuteration of terminal aromatic olefins was achieved using D2O and HBPin via in situ HD generation and discrimination. (Figure presented.).

Supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2), a solvent with a zero dipole moment, low dielectric constant, and no hydrogen bonding behavior, is a suitable medium to perform the uncatalyzed electrophilic bromination of weakly activated aromatics with no interference of radical pathways. The ability of scCO2 to promote these reactions matches those of strongly ionizing solvents such as aqueous acetic and trifluoroacetic acids. Conversely, carbon tetrachloride, with similar polarity parameters to scCO2, leads exclusively to side chain functionalization. The strong quadrupole moment, and the acidic, but non basic, Lewis character of carbon dioxide, are proposed as key factors for the singular performance of scCO2 in reactions involving highly polar and ionic intermediates.
