Solvent effects on OH stretching frequencies for 1-arylallyl alcohols

A series of 1-arylallyl alcohols were prepared and its OH stretching frequencies measured in 20 different non-HBD solvents at room temperature. It is noticed that the observed stretching bands were highly sensitive to the nature of the solvents. Multiple

Electrocatalytic Activation of Donor–Acceptor Cyclopropanes and Cyclobutanes: An Alternative C(sp3)?C(sp3) Cleavage Mode

We describe the first electrochemical activation of D–A cyclopropanes and D–A cyclobutanes leading after C(sp3)?C(sp3) cleavage to the formation of highly reactive radical cations. This concept is utilized to formally insert molecula

Cobalt-Catalyzed Diastereo- And Enantioselective Reductive Allyl Additions to Aldehydes with Allylic Alcohol Derivatives via Allyl Radical Intermediates

Catalytic generation of ambiphilic π-allyl-metal complexes and their utility in enantioselective transformations constitutes a powerful approach for introduction of allyl groups to a molecule. Herein an unprecedented cobalt-catalyzed highly site-, diastereo-, and enantioselective protocol for stereoselective formation of nucleophilic allyl-Co(II) complexes followed by addition to aldehydes is presented. The reaction features diastereo- and enantioconvergent conversion of easily accessible allylic alcohol derivatives to diversified enantioenriched homoallylic alcohols with a remarkably broad scope of allyl groups that can be introduced. Mechanistic studies indicated that allyl radical intermediates were involved in this process. These new discoveries establish a new strategy for development of enantioselective transformations through capture of radicals by chiral Co complexes, pushing forward the frontier of Co complexes for enantioselective catalysis.
