The asymmetric epoxidation of various electron-deficient olefins with H2O2 in the presence of a novel family of chiral bioinspired bipyrrolidine-derived aminopyridine manganese(II) complexes [LM II(OTf)2] is rep
Regioselective hydrosilylation of epoxides catalysed by nickel(II) hydrido complexes
Wenz, Jan,Wadepohl, Hubert,Gade, Lutz H.
, p. 4308 - 4311 (2017)
Bench-stable nickel fluoride complexes bearing NNN pincer ligands have been employed as precursors for the regioselective hydrosilylation of epoxides at room temperature. A nickel hydride assisted epoxide opening is followed by the cleavage of the newly formed nickel oxygen bond by σ-bond metathesis with a silane.

The combination of a peptide catalyst and a gold catalyst is presented for enantioselective addition reactions between branched aldehydes and allenamides. The two catalysts act in concert to provide γ,δ-enamide aldehydes bearing a fully substituted, benzylic stereogenic center – a structural motif common in many natural products and therapeutically active compounds – with good yields and enantioselectivities. The reaction tolerates a variety of alkyl and alkoxy substituted aldehydes and the products can be elaborated into several chiral building blocks bearing either 1,4- or 1,5- functional group relationships. Mechanistic studies showed that the conformational features of the peptide are important for both the catalytic efficiency and stereochemistry, while a balance of acid/base additives is key for ensuring formation of the desired product over undesired side reactions.

The MeOTf/KI-catalyzed synthesis of 2-arylnaphthalene derivatives from aryl ethylene oxides in alcohol under ambient conditions is described. The present protocol has a higher atom efficiency and wider substrate applicability with excellent yields. The reaction proceeded using the aryl ethylene oxides to give 2-arylnaphthalenes either in homo-coupling or in cross-coupling. The reaction could also be carried out at the gram scale in minutes.
