We developed simple and efficient protocols for palladium-catalyzed regioselective α- and β-arylations of structurally diverse vinyl ethers. Both catalytic methods proceed under relatively mild reactions conditions applying to a broad substrate range including more complex compounds providing arylated glucal or isochromene. Lacking the common requirement of a large reagent excess, the transformations are highly economic and limiting the waste production. Results from computational studies (DFT) provided insight into the key factors determining the pronounced regioselectivities of the investigated reactions.

A phenol-catalyzed aerobic oxidative styryl ether formation method was developed with benzyl alcohol under basic DMSO. Styryl ether was obtained after 12 hours of heating at 60-80 °C where DMSO was involved in the reaction as the extra carbon source. Control experiments indicated that both phenol and DMSO are crucial for the success of the reaction. A variety of styryl ethers were prepared smoothly from benzyl alcohols in good to excellent yields in an environmentally friendly way. This journal is
Trimethyl phosphite as a trap for alkoxy radicals formed from the ring opening of oxiranylcarbinyl radicals. Conversion to alkenes. Mechanistic applications to the study of C-C versus C-O ring cleavage

Trimethyl phosphite, (MeO)3P, is introduced as an efficient and selective trap in oxiranylcarbinyl radical (2) systems, formed from haloepoxides 8-13 under thermal AIBN/n-Bu3SnH conditions at about 80 °C. Initially, the transformations of 8-13, in the absence of phosphite, to allyl alcohol 7 and/or vinyl ether 5 were measured quantitatively (Table 1). Structural variations in the intermediate oxiranylcarbinyl (2), allyloxy (3), and vinyloxycarbinyl (4) radicals involve influences of the thermodynamics and kinetics of the C-O (2 → 3, k1) and C-C (2 → 4, k2) radical scission processes and readily account for the changes in the amounts of product vinyl ether (5) and allyl alcohol (7) formed. Added (MeO)3P is inert to vinyloxycarbinyl radical 4 and selectively and rapidly traps allyloxy radical 3, diverting it to trimethyl phosphate and allyl radical 6. Allyl radicals (6) dimerize or are trapped by n-Bu3SnH to give alkenes, formed from haloepoxides 8, 9, and 13 in 69-95% yields. Intermediate vinyloxycarbinyl radicals (4), in the presence or absence of (MeO)3P, are trapped by n-Bu3SnH to give vinyl ethers (5). The concentrations of (MeO)3P and n-Bu3SnH were varied independently, and the amounts of phosphate, vinyl ether (5), and/or alkene from haloepoxides 10, 11, and 13 were carefully monitored. The results reflect readily understood influences of changes in the structures of radicals 2-4, particularly as they influence the C-O (k1) and C-C (k2) cleavages of intermediate oxiranylcarbinyl radical 2 and their reverse (k-1, k-2). Diversion by (MeO)3P of allyloxy radicals (3) from haloepoxides 11 and 12 fulfills a prior prediction that under conditions closer to kinetic control, products of C-O scission, not just those of C-C scission, may result. Thus, for oxiranylcarbinyl radicals from haloepoxides 11, 12, and 13, C-O scission (k1, 2 → 3) competes readily with C-C cleavage (k2, 2 → 4), even though C-C scission is favored thermodynamically.
