A range of ketones flanked by a combination of an aromatic and a heterocyclic ring (furan, thiophene, N-methylimidazole) were reduced under asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (ATH) conditions. Using a range of [(arene)Ru(TsDPEN)Cl] precatalysts, including tethered derivatives, the reduction enantioselectivity was high (up to 99 % ee) in cases where the aromatic ring contained an ortho-substituent. The enantioselectivity is influenced by a combination of steric and electronic factors which for the furan and thiophene series, follow literature precedents. In the case of the N-methylimidazole-containing ketones, an unexpected switch in enantioselectivity took place upon variation of the opposing aromatic group. Pyrrole- containing ketones were resistant to reduction. This study demonstrates the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (ATH) of a range of hindered heterocyclic ketones, in high conversion and ee, using Noyori-Ikariya catalysts.

A photoinduced 1,4-heteroaryl migration from a carbon center to a nitrogen center accompanied by a cyanoalkylacylation of heterocyclic-substituted azidyl homoallylic alcohols and cycloketone oxime esters has been described. This simple and powerful protoc

The synthesis of four novel non-symmetric Ni(ii)-POCOP pincer complexesmeta-functionalized with either benzothiazole or benzimidazole at the central aryl ring is described. All complexes were fully characterised in solution by various analytical techniques and the molecular structures in the solid state of complexes1b,2aand2bwere unequivocally determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. In addition, the Ni(ii)-POCOP pincer complexes were efficiently used as catalysts in the synthesis of diarylketones by cross-coupling reactions of functionalized benzaldehydes and boronic acid derivatives under relatively mild conditions. An important aspect of this transformation is the dependence on the steric properties of the donor groups (OPR2) of the pincer ligands, the more active compounds having the phosphinitos bearing isopropyl groups (1aand2a) than those containingtert-butyl substituents (1band2b).
