Multicatalytic processes using diverse transition metals for the synthesis of alkenes

A series of cascade processes for the synthesis of alkenes from alcohols is described. Each individual step is catalyzed with a specific transition metal complex. The oxidation-methylenation one-pot procedure took place in the presence of a palladium and a rhodium catalyst to produce the desired terminal alkenes in high yields. A methylenation-ring-closing metathesis allowed the synthesis of cyclic alkenes from carbonyl derivatives, using the second-generation metathesis catalyst. Finally, an oxidation-methylenation-RCM process that involves up to three different transition metal catalysts in the same vessel is presented. Copyright
Tandem Michael/intramolecular aldol reactions mediated by secondary amines, thiols and phosphines

The secondary amine mediated Baylis-Hillman reaction has been found to proceed via a tandem Michael addition/intramolecular aldol followed by a slow elimination step; it was also observed that similar processes can be effected using phosphines and thiols as mediators.
