Pd-catalyzed carbonylation, as an efficient synthetic approach to the installation of carbonyl groups in organic compounds, has been one of the most important research fields in the past decade. Although elegant reactions that allow highly selective carbonylations have been developed, straightforward routes with improved reaction activity and broader substrate scope remain long-term challenges for new practical applications. Here, we show a new type of synergistic Cu/Pd-catalyzed carbonylation reaction using alcohols and dioxgen as the carbonyl sources. A broad range of aryl iodides and alcohols are compatible with this protocol. The reaction is concise and practical due to the ready availability of the starting materials and the scalability of the reaction. In addition, the reaction affords lactones and lactams in an intermolecular fashion. Moreover, DFT calculations have been performed to study the detailed mechanisms.

The esterification of activated amides, N -acylsaccharins, under transition-metal-free conditions with good functional group tolerance has been developed, resulting in C-N cleavage leading to efficient synthesis of a variety of esters in moderate to good yields. This work demonstrates that esterification may proceed by using simple N -acylsaccharins, haloalkanes, and Cs 2 CO 3 as oxygen source.
Dehydrogenative cross-coupling of primary alcohols to form cross-esters catalyzed by a manganese pincer complex

Base-metal-catalyzed dehydrogenative cross-coupling of primary alcohols to form cross-esters as major products, liberating hydrogen gas, is reported. The reaction is catalyzed by a pincer complex of earth-abundant manganese in the presence of catalytic base, without any hydrogen acceptor or oxidant. Mechanistic insight indicates that a dearomatized complex is the actual catalyst, and indeed this independently prepared dearomatized complex catalyzes the reaction under neutral conditions.
