Gold-catalyzed reactions of cycloheptatrienes with nitrosoarenes yield nitrone derivatives efficiently. This reaction sequence enables us to develop gold-catalyzed aerobic oxidations of cycloheptatrienes to afford benzaldehyde derivatives using CuCl and nitrosoarenes as co-catalysts (10-30 mol %). Our density functional theory calculations support a novel nitroso-activated rearrangement, tropylium → benzylidene. With the same nitrosoarenes, we developed their gold-catalyzed [2 + 2 + 1]-annulations between nitrosobenzene and two enol ethers to yield 5-alkoxyisoxazolidines using 1,4-cyclohexadienes as hydrogen donors.

Photochemistry provides a sustainable pathway for organic transformations by inducing radical intermediates from substrates through electron transfer process. However, progress is limited by heterogeneous photocatalysts that are required to be efficient, stable, and inexpensive for long-term operation with easy recyclability and product separation. Here, we report that boron carbonitride (BCN) ceramics are such a system and can reduce organic halides, including (het)aryl and alkyl halides, with visible light irradiation. Cross-coupling of halides to afford new C-H, C-C, and C-S bonds can proceed at ambient reaction conditions. Hydrogen, (het)aryl, and sulfonyl groups were introduced into the arenes and heteroarenes at the designed positions by means of mesolytic C-X (carbon-halogen) bond cleavage in the absence of any metal-based catalysts or ligands. BCN can be used not only for half reactions, like reduction reactions with a sacrificial agent, but also redox reactions through oxidative and reductive interfacial electron transfer. The BCN photocatalyst shows tolerance to different substituents and conserved activity after five recycles. The apparent metal-free system opens new opportunities for a wide range of organic catalysts using light energy and sustainable materials, which are metal-free, inexpensive and stable.

A series of N,O-bidentate ligands were synthesized using the Vilsmeier-Haack reaction and oximation. 2,5-Dihydroxyterephthalaldehyde dioxime (L8) as an efficient N,O-symmetrical bidentate ligand was prepared from hydroquinone. It was studied as a high activity ligand for palladium-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions of aryl chlorides with arylboronic acids under mild conditions. The coupling reactions were performed in the presence of PdCl2 as the catalyst, L8 as the ligand, Na2CO3 as the base, PEG-400 as the PTC and in ethanol/water (1?:?1) as an environmentally benign solvent at 85 °C. Plentiful biaryls were obtained by the optimized reaction with good yields at a low palladium loading of 0.20 mol%.
