On the electron withdrawing nature of ethers in glycosylation chemistry

, (2020)
The present paper is a commentary on the electronic effects that protecting groups exert on glycosylation chemistry. Specifically, its purpose is to rectify the misguided use of the term electron donating benzyl groups, which hardly makes sense in the context of protecting groups on alcohols in saturated systems such as carbohydrates. It is argued that benzyl ethers (OBn) should rightfully be referred to as being inductively electron withdrawing, even if they are less so than benzoyl esters (OBz).

The carbon-carbon bond cleavage of 1,2-diols is an important chemical transformation. Although traditional stoichiometric and catalytic oxidation methods have been widely used for this transformation, an efficient and valuable method should be further explored from the views of reusable catalysts, less waste, and convenient procedures. Herein an inorganic-ligand supported iron catalyst (NH4)3[FeMo6O18(OH)6]·7H2O was described as a heterogeneous molecular catalyst in acetic acid for this transformation in which hydrogen peroxide was used as the terminal oxidant. Under the optimized reaction conditions, carbon-carbon bond cleavage of 1,2-diols could be achieved in almost all cases and carboxylic acids or ketones could be afforded with a high conversion rate and high selectivity. Furthermore, the catalytic system was used efficiently to degrade renewable biomass oleic acid. Mechanistic insights based on the observation of the possible intermediates and control experiments are presented.

A nickel-catalyzed cyanation of aryl thioethers using Zn(CN)2 as a cyanide source has been developed to access functionalized aryl nitriles. The ligand dcype (1,2-bis(dicyclohexylphosphino)ethane) in combination with the base KOAc (potassium acetate) is essential for achieving this transformation efficiently. This reaction involves both a C-S bond activation and a C-C bond formation. The scalability, low catalyst and reagents loadings, and high functional group tolerance have enabled both late-stage derivatization and polymer recycling, demonstrating the reaction's utility across organic chemistry.
