Xin, Hong,Duan, Xin-Hua,Yang, Mingyu,Zhang, Yiwen,Guo, Li-Na
, p. 8263 - 8273 (2021/06/30)
A visible light-driven, copper-catalyzed aerobic oxidative cleavage of cycloalkanones has been presented. A variety of cycloalkanones with varying ring sizes and various α-substituents reacted well to give the distal keto acids or dicarboxylic acids with moderate to good yields.

A highly efficient asymmetric hydrogenation of ?- A nd ?-ketoacids was developed by using a chiral spiro iridium catalyst (S)-1a, affording the optically active ?- A nd ?-hydroxy acids/lactones in high yields with excellent enantioselectivities (up to >99% ee) and turnover numbers (TON up to 100000). This protocol provides an efficient and practical method for enantioselective synthesis of Ezetimibe.
Cooperative iodine and photoredox catalysis for direct oxidative lactonization of carboxylic acids
Duhamel, Thomas,Mu?iz, Kilian
supporting information, p. 933 - 936 (2019/01/23)
A new method for the formation of γ- and δ-lactones from carboxylic acids through direct conversion of benzylic C-H to C-O bonds is described. The reaction is conveniently induced by visible light and relies on a mild cooperative catalysis by the combination of molecular iodine and an organic dye.
