A detailed study has been completed on the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (ATH) of a series of enones using Ru(II) catalysts. Electron-rich rings adjacent to the C[dbnd]O group reduce the level of C[dbnd]O reduction compared to C[dbnd]C. The ATH reaction can readily discriminate between double and triple bonds adjacent to ketones, reducing the double bond but leaving a triple bond intact in the major product.

Friedel-Crafts-type acylation of alkenes with acyl chlorides has been successfully conducted with a wide substrate scope by the combined use of AlCl3 and 2,6-dibromopyridine. Trisubstituted alkenes afford allylketones or vinylketones depending on the presence or absence of hydrogen atom(s) at the β-position to the acylation site, while monosubstituted alkenes exclusively afford vinylketones.
Gold-catalyzed highly regioselective oxidation of C-C triple bonds without acid additives: Propargyl moieties as masked α,β-unsaturated carbonyls

Gold-catalyzed intermolecular oxidations of internal alkynes have been achieved with high regioselectivities using 8-alkylquinoline N-oxides as oxidants and in the absence of acid additives. Synthetically versatile α,β-unsaturated carbonyls are obtained in good to excellent yields and with excellent E-selectivities. A range of functional groups such as THP, MOMO, N3, OTBS, and N-Boc are tolerated. This reaction allows α,β-unsaturated carbonyls to be masked as propargyl moieties, thus offering a practical solution to compatibility issues with these functional groups likely encountered in syntheses of complex structures.
