(R,R)- and (S,S)-(2,9-2H2)-n-Decane were prepared regio- and stereospecifically in 25–26 % yield over five steps from commercially available enantiopure (R)- and (S)-propylene oxide, respectively. The synthetic procedure involved nucleophilic displacement of (R)- and (S)-4-toluenesulfonic acid 1-methyl-4-pentenyl ester with LiAlD4 to furnish the respective (5-2H)-1-hexenes. Subsequent olefin metathesis and reduction of the double bond furnished the title compounds. The optical purity of (R,R)- and (S,S)-(2,9-2H2)-n-decane could not be determined by chromatography or polarimetry. Therefore, (R,R)- and (R,S)-(5-2H)-3-hydroxy-2-hexanone were prepared from their respective hexenes by Wacker oxidation, followed by enantioselective α-hydroxylation. The enantiopurity could then be determined by NMR spectroscopy because the stereospecifically deuterated hydroxyketones showed separated signals for the subterminal carbon atom (C-5) in the 13C NMR spectrum.

The different reactivity of trienones under Lewis and Br?nsted acids catalysis was investigated, resulting in distinct cyclization products and carbon backbones that originated either from a conjugate Prins cyclization or an interrupted Nazarov cyclizatio
Photoinduced Palladium-Catalyzed Dicarbofunctionalization of Terminal Alkynes

Herein, a conceptually distinct approach was developed that allowed for the dicarbofunctionalization of alkynes at room temperature using simple, bench-stable alkyl iodides and a second molecule of alkyne as coupling partner. Specifically, the photochemical activation of palladium complexes enabled this strategic dicarbofunctionalization via addition of alkyl radicals from secondary and tertiary alkyl iodides and formation of an intermediate palladium vinyl complex that could undergo subsequent Sonogashira reaction with a second alkyne molecule. This alkylation–alkynylation sequence allowed the one-step synthesis of 1,3-enynes including heteroarenes and biologically active compounds with high efficiency without exogenous photosensitizers or oxidants and now opens up pathways towards cascade reactions via photochemical palladium catalysis.
