The rhodium-catalyzed water-gas shift reaction has been demonstrated to drive the reductive alkylation of several classes of activated methylene compounds at room temperature. Under catalysis by rhodium trichloride (2-3 mol %), carbon monoxide (10 bar), water (2-50 equiv), and triethylamine (2.5-7 equiv), the scope has been successfully expanded to cover a wide range of alkylating agents, including aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes, as well as cyclic ketones, in moderate to high yields. This method is comparable to, and for certain aspects, surpasses the established reductive alkylation protocols.

A practical and efficient synthesis of various 1,2,5-tricarbonyl compounds is described. The synthesis has been carried out by a conjugate addition of methyl cyanoacetate to the β-position of α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds and a subsequent copper(I) iodide-catalyzed aerobic oxidation. In addition, various α-aryl- and α-alkyl-α-keto esters have been synthesized using a similar approach. Copyright

A ruthenium-grafted hydrotalcite (Ru/HT) and hydrotalcite-supported palladium nanoparticles (Pdnano/ HT) are easily prepared by treating basic layered double hydroxide, hydrotalcite (HT, Mg6Al 2(OH)16CO3) with aqueous RuCl 3·n H2O and K2[PdCl4] solutions, respectively, using surface impregnation methods. Analysis by means of X-ray diffraction, and energydispersive X-ray, electron paramagnetic resonance, and X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopies proves that a monomeric RuIV species is grafted onto the surface of the HT. Meanwhile, after reduction of a surface-isolated PdII species, highly dispersed Pd nanoclusters with a mean diameter of about 70 A is observed on the Pdnano/HT surface by transmission electron microscopy analysis. These hydrotalcite-supported metal catalysts can effectively promote α-alkylation reactions of various nitriles with primary alcohols or carbonyl compounds through tandem reactions consisting of metal-catalyzed oxidation and reduction, and an aldol reaction promoted by the base sites of the HT. In these catalytic α-alkylations, homogeneous bases are unnecessary and the only by-product is water. Additionally, these catalyst systems are applicable to one-pot syntheses of glutaronitrile derivatives.
