Selective electrochemical oxidation of aromatic hydrocarbons and preparation of mono/multi-carbonyl compounds

A selective electrochemical oxidation was developed under mild condition. Various mono-carbonyl and multi-carbonyl compounds can be prepared from different aromatic hydrocarbons with moderate to excellent yield and selectivity by virtue of this electrochemical oxidation. The produced carbonyl compounds can be further transformed into α-ketoamides, homoallylic alcohols and oximes in a one-pot reaction. In particular, a series of α-ketoamides were prepared in a one-pot continuous electrolysis. Mechanistic studies showed that 2,2,2-trifluoroethan-1-ol (TFE) can interact with catalyst species and generate the corresponding hydrogen-bonding complex to enhance the electrochemical oxidation performance.

Rapid assembly of α-ketoamides through a decarboxylative strategy of isocyanates with α-oxocarboxylic acids under mild conditions

A simple and practical method for α-ketoamide synthesis via a decarboxylative strategy of isocyanates with α-oxocarboxylic acids is described. The reaction proceeds at room temperature under mild conditions without an oxidant or an additive, showing good substrate scope and functional compatibility. Moreover, the applicability of this method was further demonstrated by the synthesis of various bioactive molecules and different application examples through a two-step one-pot operation.

Pd-Catalyst Containing a Hemilabile P,C-Hybrid Ligand in Amino Dicarbonylation of Aryl Halides for Synthesis of α-Ketoamides

The amino dicarbonylation of aryl halides affording α-ketoamides with Pd catalysts is highly dependent on the stereoelectronic properties of the involved ligands. Ionic diphosphine ligand L4 can serve as precursor of a hemilabile P,C (phosphine, carbene)-hybrid ligand to form a stable Pd(II)-complex, Pd-L4. In contrast, analogues L1-L3 with a similar 1-(thiophen-3-yl)-benzimidazolyl skeleton behave as typical (mono/di)phosphines. The catalytic system resulting from the complexation of PdCl2(MeCN)2 and L4 exhibits good catalytic performance in terms of aryl iodides conversion (81-95%) and α-ketoamide selectivity (80-91%), as well as the available recyclability in the RTIL of [Bpy]BF4. The in situ FT-IR analysis reveals that the PdCl2(MeCN)2-L4 catalytic system favors the amino dicarbonylation toward α-ketoamides according to the proposed mechanism of cycle I, which involves two independent CO-insertion steps.
