(Figure Presented) In the footsteps of Liebig and Berzelius: A material first synthesized in 1834, carbon nitride (C3N4), was synthesized in a graphitic mesoporous form by using silica nanoparticles as templates. The resulting electron-rich solid is an active catalyst for the Friedel-Crafts acylation of benzene with hexanoyl chloride. Presumably the catalysis arises from a shift of electron density from the MOs of the catalyst to the unoccupied orbitals of benzene (see picture).

Herein, a phosphine-free pincer ruthenium(III) catalyzed β-alkylation of secondary alcohols with primary alcohols to α-alkylated ketones and two different secondary alcohols to β-branched ketones are reported. Notably, this transformation is environmentally benign and atom efficient with H2O and H2 gas as the only byproducts. The protocol is extended to gram-scale reaction and for functionalization of complex vitamin E and cholesterol derivatives.

A metal- and additive-free methodology for the highly selective, photocatalyzed C-H oxygenation of alkylarenes under air to the corresponding carbonyls is presented. The process is catalyzed by an imide-acridinium that forms an extremely strong photooxidant upon visible light irradiation, which is able to activate inert alkylarenes such as toluene. Hence, this is an easy to perform, sustainable and environmentally friendly oxidation that provides valuable carbonyls from abundant, readily available compounds.
