Palladium-Catalyzed Synthesis of α-Methyl Ketones from Allylic Alcohols and Methanol

One-pot synthesis of α-methyl ketones starting from 1,3-diaryl propenols or 1-aryl propenols and methanol as a C1 source is demonstrated. This one-pot isomerization-methylation is catalyzed by commercially available Pd(OAc)2 with H2O as the only by-product. Mechanistic studies and deuterium labelling experiments indicate the involvement of isomerization of allyl alcohol followed by methylation through a hydrogen-borrowing pathway in these isomerization-methylation reactions.

Method for preparing aryl ketone based on iron-catalyzed free radical-free radical coupling reaction such as ketonic acid decarboxylation and fatty aldehyde de-carbonylation

The invention discloses a method for preparing an aryl ketone derivative based on a free radical-free radical cross-coupling reaction such as ketonic acid decarboxylation and fatty aldehyde de-carbonylation. The method comprises the following steps: reacting aryl-substituted ketonic acid with fatty aldehyde under the catalytic action of ferric triacetylacetonate to generate an aryl ketone derivative; the gram-grade reaction can be realized by the method only by using 3mol% of an iron catalyst; and the method has the advantages of no need of consumption of a large amount of a Lewis acid catalyst or a stoichiometric organic metal reagent, mild reaction conditions, one-step reaction, few by-products, wide substrate application range and scalable reaction, and overcomes the defects of large catalyst consumption, insufficient functional group tolerance, many by-products and the like in the prior art.
