The first syntheses of newly isolated members of the Preussomerin family, Preussomerins K and L, are reported. Key steps include the functionalisation of a 2-arylacetal anion, one-pot Friedel-Crafts cyclisation-deprotection and reductive opening of epoxides.

The Ir-catalyzed conversion of prochiral tert-cyclobutanols to β-methyl-substituted ketones proceeds under comparably mild conditions in toluene (45–110 °C) and is particularly suited for the enantioselective desymmetrization of β-oxy-substituted substrates to give products with a quaternary chirality center with up to 95 % ee using DTBM-SegPhos as a chiral ligand. Deuteration experiments and kinetic isotope effect measurements revealed major mechanistic differences to related RhI-catalyzed transformations. Supported by DFT calculations we propose the initial formation of an IrIII hydride intermediate, which then undergoes a β-C elimination (C?C bond activation) prior to reductive C?H elimination. The computational model also allows the prediction of the stereochemical outcome. The Ir-catalyzed cyclobutanol cleavage is broadly applicable but fails for substrates bearing strongly coordinating groups. The method is of particular value for the stereo-controlled synthesis of substituted chromanes related to the tocopherols and other natural products.

Chlorophyll b was extracted from heliotropium europaeum plant, demetalated, allylated and grafted to acrylated TEMPO through a copolymerization protocol. Then, the chlorophyll monomers were coordinated to Co ions, immobilized on magnetic nanoparticles and the resulting hybrid was used as a powerful catalyst for a variety of oxidation reactions. By using the present method, oxidation of benzylic alcohols and alkyl benzenes to carbonyls was accomplished in water under aerobic conditions. Moreover, direct oxidation of alcohols to carboxylic acids was performed by adding NaOCl to the mixture. All entries were oxidized to the corresponding desired product with high to excellent yields and up to 97% selectivity. The catalyst was thoroughly characterized by CV, TGA, VSM, XRD, XPS, DLS, FE-SEM, TEM, UV-Vis, EDX, and BET analyses. The activity of the catalyst was investigated by applying various components of the catalyst to the oxidation model separately. The reasonable mechanisms are suggested based on the cooperation between the TEMPO groups and cobalt(iii) (or Co(iv)) sites on the catalyst. The catalyst could be recovered and reused for at least 7 consecutive recycles without any considerable reactivity loss. This journal is
