Although cross-coupling reactions of amides by selective N?C cleavage are one of the most powerful and burgeoning areas in organic synthesis due to the ubiquity of amide bonds, the development of mechanochemical, solid-state methods remains a major challe

A simple, and practical oxidative scission of aromatic olefins to carbonyl compounds using O2as the sole oxidant with poly(ethylene glycol) dimethyl ether as a benign solvent has been developed. A wide range of monosubstituted,gem-disubstituted, 1,2-disubstituted, trisubstituted and tetrasubstituted aromatic olefins was successfully converted into the corresponding aldehydes and ketones in excellent yields even with gram-scale reaction. Some control experiments were also conducted to support a possible reaction pathway.

Despite the remarkable reactivity that was achieved by a series of transition-metal catalysts with a PNP type ligand, the electron-rich chiral PNP ligands have still been rarely reported because of the difficulties in synthesis and the nature of air-sensitivity. Herein, we report a novel chiral PNP ligand (Heng-PNP) with both a rigid backbone and a bulky tert-butyl group on the phospholane motif. We successfully obtained its divalent iron complex. The chiral environment of its Ir(III) complex was also discussed with quadrant analysis. This tridentate ligand was applied in iridium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of challenging diaryl ketones: up to 98% ee and 500 TON are achieved. Computational study showed that the twist of conjugate aryl group in the substrate (induced by the special chiral pocket of Ir/Heng-PNP complex) leads to the energy difference in the enantiodetermining step.
