Site-Selective Pd-Catalyzed C(sp3)?H Arylation of Heteroaromatic Ketones

A ligand-controlled site-selective C(sp3)?H arylation of heteroaromatic ketones has been developed using Pd catalysis. The reaction occurred selectively at the α- or β-position of the ketone side-chain. The switch from α- to β-arylation was realized by addition of a pyridone ligand. The α-arylation process showed broad scope and high site- and chemoselectivity, whereas the β-arylation was more limited. Mechanistic investigations suggested that α-arylation occurs through C?H activation/oxidative addition/reductive elimination whereas β-arylation involves desaturation and aryl insertion.

Photoenzymatic Hydrogenation of Heteroaromatic Olefins Using ‘Ene’-Reductases with Photoredox Catalysts

Flavin-dependent ‘ene’-reductases (EREDs) are highly selective catalysts for the asymmetric reduction of activated alkenes. This function is, however, limited to enones, enoates, and nitroalkenes using the native hydride transfer mechanism. Here we demonstrate that EREDs can reduce vinyl pyridines when irradiated with visible light in the presence of a photoredox catalyst. Experimental evidence suggests the reaction proceeds via a radical mechanism where the vinyl pyridine is reduced to the corresponding neutral benzylic radical in solution. DFT calculations reveal this radical to be “dynamically stable”, suggesting it is sufficiently long-lived to diffuse into the enzyme active site for stereoselective hydrogen atom transfer. This reduction mechanism is distinct from the native one, highlighting the opportunity to expand the synthetic capabilities of existing enzyme platforms by exploiting new mechanistic models.

Site-selective c-h acylation of pyridinium derivatives by photoredox catalysis

A strategy for visible-light-induced site-selective C-H acylation of pyridinium salts was developed by employing N-methoxy-or N-aminopyridinium salts, offering a powerful synthetic tool for accessing highly valuable C2- A nd C4-acylated pyridines. The met
