Herein, we report the first example of an effective and green approach for the oxidative cleavage of olefins to carboxylic acids using a 1,2-dibutoxyethane/O2 system under clean conditions. This novel oxidation system also has excellent functional-group tolerance and is applicable for large-scale synthesis. The target products were prepared in good to excellent yields by a one-pot sequential transformation without an external initiator, catalyst, and additive.

Trifluoromethoxylated (hetero)arenes are of great interest for several disciplines, especially in agro- and medicinal chemistry. Radical C?H trifluoromethoxylation of (hetero)arenes represents an attractive approach to prepare such compounds, but the high cost and low atom economy of existing .OCF3 radical sources make them unsuitable for the large-scale synthesis of trifluoromethoxylated building blocks. Herein, we introduce bis(trifluoromethyl)peroxide (BTMP, CF3OOCF3) as a practical and efficient trifluoromethoxylating reagent that is easily accessible from inexpensive bulk chemicals. Using either visible light photoredox or TEMPO catalysis, trifluoromethoxylated arenes could be prepared in good yields under mild conditions directly from unactivated aromatics. Moreover, TEMPO catalysis allowed for the one-step synthesis of valuable pyridine derivatives, which have been previously prepared via multi-step approaches.

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is an intrinsically stable molecule. However, its reactivity toward nucleophilic bases has constituted an appealing characteristic for applications such as CO2 capture and functionalization. To shed light on the role of nucleophilic bases in CO2 functionalization, we performed some mechanistic studies using nitrogen-containing bases as an additive-in catalytic amounts-for carboxylation reactions of Grignard reagents. Our kinetic analysis and in situ infrared spectroscopy revealed the role of nucleophilic bases, particularly that of DBU (1,8-diazabicycloundec-7-ene), in CO2 (de)activation for carboxylation reactions.
