Zirconium-catalysed direct substitution of alcohols: enhancing the selectivity by kinetic analysis

Kinetic analysis was used as a tool for rational optimization of a catalytic, direct substitution of alcohols to enable the selective formation of unsymmetrical ethers, thioethers, and Friedel-Crafts alkylation products using a moisture-tolerant and commercially available zirconium complex (2 to 8 mol%). Operating in air and in the absence of dehydration techniques, the protocol furnished a variety of products in high yields, including glycosylated alcohols and sterically hindered ethers. In addition, the kinetic studies provided mechanistic insight into the network of parallel transformations that take place in the reaction, and helped to elucidate the nature of the operating catalyst.

Hydrogenation reaction method

The invention relates to a hydrogenation reaction method, and belongs to the technical field of organic synthesis. The hydrogenation reaction method provided by the invention comprises the following steps: carrying out a hydrogen transfer reaction on a hydrogen acceptor compound, pinacol borane and a catalyst in a solvent in the presence of proton hydrogen, so that the hydrogen acceptor compound is subjected to a hydrogenation reaction; the catalyst is one or more than two of a palladium catalyst, an iridium catalyst and a rhodium catalyst; the hydrogen acceptor compound comprises one or morethan two functional groups of carbon-carbon double bonds, carbon-carbon triple bonds, carbon-oxygen double bonds, carbon-nitrogen double bonds, nitrogen-nitrogen double bonds, nitryl, carbon-nitrogentriple bonds and epoxy. The method is mild in reaction condition, easy to operate, high in yield, short in reaction time, wide in substrate application range, suitable for carbon-carbon double bonds,carbon-carbon triple bonds, carbon-oxygen double bonds, carbon-nitrogen double bonds, nitrogen-nitrogen double bonds, nitryl, carbon-nitrogen triple bonds and epoxy functional groups, good in selectivity and high in reaction specificity.

Intramolecular activation of imidate with cationic gold(I) catalyst: A new benzylation reaction of alcohols

Benzylation of alcohols with benzyl (Z)-2,2,2-trifluoro-N-(2-alkynylphenyl)acetimidates 5a-f in the presence of a cationic gold(I) catalyst was investigated. Reagent 5f was the most effective, affording benzyl ethers in good yields. Our results indicate that these gold(I)-activated imidates are effective leaving groups.
