2,3-Dichloropyridine N-oxide, a novel oxygen transfer reagent, allows the conductance of the gold(I)-catalyzed oxidation of alkynes to 1,2-dicarbonyls in the absence of any acid additives and under mild conditions to furnish the target species, including those derivatized by highly acid-sensitive groups. The developed strategy is effective for a wide range of alkyne substrates such as terminal- and internal alkynes, ynamides, alkynyl ethers/thioethers, and even unsubstituted acetylene (40 examples; yields up to 99%). The oxidation was successfully integrated into the trapping of reactive dicarbonyls by one-pot heterocyclization and into the synthesis of six-membered azaheterocycles. This synthetic acid-free route was also successfully applied for the total synthesis of a natural 1,2-diketone.

An efficient one-pot two-step procedure for the synthesis of unsymmetrical (hetero)aryl 1,2-diketones has been developed. The reaction proceeds through a palladium-catalyzed nucleophilic addition of potassium aryltrifluoroborates to aliphatic nitriles followed by a copper-catalyzed aerobic benzylic C–H oxygenation using molecular oxygen as a green oxidant. This represents the first example of the direct synthesis of unsymmetrical diaryl 1,2-diketones from arylacetonitriles. This method utilizes inexpensive, stable, nontoxic, and readily available starting materials, is highly effective in the presence of both electron-rich and electron-poor nitriles and aryltrifluoroborates, and tolerates a wide variety of functional groups. The synthetic utility of this transformation was shown by increasing the scale of the reaction and by carrying out the one-pot protocol for the preparation of quinoxaline and benzimidazole derivatives. A plausible reaction mechanism has also been proposed.
Copper-catalyzed TEMPO oxidative cleavage of 1,3-diketones and β-keto esters for the synthesis of 1,2-diketones and α-keto esters

A copper-catalyzed efficient and practical method has been developed for the synthesis of 1,2-diketones and α-keto esters. TEMPO was used as a radical initiator and scavenger, oxidizing the cleavage of α-methylene of 1,3-diketones and β-keto esters to form 1,2-diketones and α-keto esters. This method provided a general way for the formation of 1,2-dicarbonyl compounds.
