The dehydrogenation of a series of alkylthiophenes has been studied on vanadium-magnesium systems in the presence of atmospheric oxygen, and zinc-chromium oxide catalysts in the absence of oxygen.Optimum conditions heve been determined for bringing this about enabling vinylthiophenes to be obtained in high yield and with high selectivity.The advantages of the oxidative dehydrogenation method have been shown in the synthesis of vinyl derivatives of thiophene.

Stereoselective Gold(I)-Catalyzed Vinylcyclopropanation via Generation of a Sulfur-Substituted Vinyl Carbene Equivalent

A stereoselective gold(I)-catalyzed vinylcyclopropanation of alkenes has been developed. A gold-coordinated cationic vinyl carbene species, readily generated via a rearrangement of the ethylenedithioacetal of propargyl aldehyde, reacts with a wide range of alkenes to afford thio-substituted vinylcyclopropanes. The gold-catalyzed vinyl cyclopropanation proceeds under mild conditions at room temperature and is generally selective for the formation of cis-substituted cyclopropanes. The reaction allows the formal introduction of a “naked” vinyl carbene, by subsequent chemoselective hydrodesulfurisation of the ethylenedithio-bridge. The synthetic utility of the new method is demonstrated by a short, racemic formal synthesis of the alkaloid cephalotaxin, hinging on a key vinyl cyclopropane-cyclopentene rearrangement.

We reported a selective semihydrogenation (deuteration) of numerous terminal and internal alkynes using H2O (D2O) as the H (D) source over a Pd-P alloy cathode at a lower potential. P-doping caused the enhanced specific adsorption of alkynes and the promoted intrinsic activity for producing adsorbed atomic hydrogen (H*ads) from water electrolysis. The semihydrogenation of alkynes could be accomplished at a lower potential with up to 99 % selectivity and 78 % Faraday efficiency of alkene products, outperforming pure Pd and commercial Pd/C. This electrochemical semihydrogenation of alkynes might proceed via a H*ads addition pathway rather than a proton-coupled electron transfer process. The decreased amount of H*ads at a lower potential and the more preferential adsorption of the Pd-P to C≡C π bond than C=C moiety resulted in the excellent alkene selectivity. This method was capable of producing mono-, di-, and tri-deuterated alkenes with up to 99 % deuterium incorporation.
Br?nsted Acid Catalyzed Peterson Olefinations

, p. 301 - 305 (2019/12/25)
A mild and facile Peterson olefination has been developed employing low catalyst loading of the Br?nsted acid HNTf2. The reactions are typically performed at room temperature, with the reaction tolerant to a range of useful functionalities. Furthermore, we have extended this methodology to the synthesis of enynes.
