Chemical transformations that install heteroatoms into C?H bonds are of significant interest because they streamline the construction of value-added small molecules. Direct C?H oxyfunctionalization, or the one step conversion of a C?H bond to a C?O bond, could be a highly enabling transformation due to the prevalence of the resulting enantioenriched alcohols in pharmaceuticals and natural products,. Here we report a single-flask photoredox/enzymatic process for direct C?H hydroxylation that proceeds with broad reactivity, chemoselectivity and enantioselectivity. This unified strategy advances general photoredox and enzymatic catalysis synergy and enables chemoenzymatic processes for powerful and selective oxidative transformations.

The first examples of the direct functionalization of non-activated aryl sp2 C-H bonds with ethyl diazoacetate (N2CHCO2Et) catalyzed by Mn- or Fe-based complexes in a completely selective manner are reported, with no formation of the frequently observed cycloheptatriene derivatives through competing Buchner reaction. The best catalysts are FeII or MnII complexes bearing the tetradentate pytacn ligand (pytacn= 1-(2-pyridylmethyl)-4,7-dimethyl-1,4,7-triazacyclononane). When using alkylbenzenes, the alkylic C(sp3)-H bonds of the substituents remained unmodified, thus the reaction being also selective toward functionalization of sp2 C-H bonds. Exclusive catalysis: Iron- and-manganese-based catalysts selectively functionalize the C(sp2)-H bonds of benzene or alkylbenzenes through the formal insertion of the CHCO2Et group from N2CHCO2Et (see scheme). When using alkylbenzenes, the alkylic C(sp3)-H bonds of the substituents remain unmodified.
Palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling of sterically demanding boronic acids with α-bromocarbonyl compounds
Zimmermann, Bettina,Dzik, Wojciech I.,Himmler, Thomas,Goossen, Lukas J.
experimental part, p. 8107 - 8112 (2011/11/07)
A catalyst system generated in situ from Pd(dba)2 and tri(o-tolyl)phosphine mediates the coupling of arylboronic acids with alkyl α-bromoacetates under formation of arylacetic acid esters at unprecedented low loadings. The new protocol, which involves potassium fluoride as the base and catalytic amounts of benzyltriethylammonium bromideas a phase transfer catalyst, is uniquely effective for the synthesis of sterically demanding arylacetic acid derivatives.
