Oxidation of propargylic alcohols to the corresponding aldehydes and ketones was achieved at room temperature using 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1- oxyl (TEMPO) and calcium hypochlorite (Ca(OCl)2). Propargylic diols yielded corresponding dialdehydes as the product. This system was found to be very efficient for both the electron donating and electron withdrawing groups such as methoxy and nitro substituted alcohols, respectively. This method does not require any additives and demonstrates the controlled, selective oxidation of propargylic alcohols affording up to 97% isolated yield. The Royal Society of Chemistry 2013.

Pyrimidines are almost unreactive partners in Diels-Alder cycloadditions with alkenes and alkynes, and only reactions under drastic conditions have previously been reported. We describe how 2-hydrazonylpyrimidines, easily obtained in two steps from commercially available 2-halopyrimidines, can be exceptionally activated by trifluoroacetylation. This allows a Diels-Alder cycloaddition under very mild reaction conditions, leading to a large diversity of aza-indazoles, a ubiquitous scaffold in medicinal chemistry. This reaction is general and scalable and has an excellent functional group tolerance. A straightforward synthesis of a key intermediate of Bayer's Vericiguat illustrates the potential of this cycloaddition strategy. Quantum mechanical calculations show how the simple N-trifluoroacetylation of 2-hydrazonylpyrimidines distorts the substrate into a transition-state-like geometry that readily undergoes the intramolecular Diels-Alder cycloaddition.
