By using [Mn(2,6-Cl(2)TPP)Cl] (1) as a catalyst and Oxone/H(2)O(2) as an oxidant, we have developed an efficient method for erythro-selective epoxidation of acyclic allyl-substituted alkenes, including allylic alcohols, amines, and esters. Up to 9:1 erythro selectivities for terminal allyllic alkenes could be achieved, which are significantly higher than that achieved using m-CPBA as an oxidant. In addition, the synthetic utilities of this epoxidation method were highlighted in stereoselective synthesis of key anti-HIV drug intermediates and epoxidation of glycals.

Recently, the asymmetric bifunctionalization of alkenes has received much attention. However, the development of enantioselective alkoxyalkenylation has posed a considerable challenge and has lagged largely behind. Herein, we report a new palladium-catalyzed enantioselective alkoxyalkenylation reaction, using a range of primary, secondary, and tertiary γ-hydroxy-alkenes with alkenyl halides.

In developing homogenous catalysts capable of CO activation, interaction with a metal center is often imperative. This work provides primary efforts towards the cooperative activation of CO using a Lewis acidic secondary coordination sphere (SCS) and iron via a paired theoretical/experimental approach. Specifically, this study reports efforts towards [Fe(diphosphine) (N )] as a CO -coordinated synthon where diphosphine=1,2-bis(di(3-cyclohexylboranyl)propylphosphino)ethane) (P B ) or its precursor, 1,2-bis(diallylphosphino)ethane (tape).

Article Synopsis
- The text describes a new chemical reaction that combines allyl-substituted arenes with electron-deficient alkenes through a process involving cobalt-catalyzed hydrogen atom transfer (HAT).
- This method allows for the efficient formation of complex tetralin products while minimizing issues that usually arise from other reactions like hydrofluorination or radical polymerization.
- The reaction conditions are mild and compatible with various functional groups, making it a versatile tool for creating complex chemical structures that are difficult to achieve with traditional methods like Diels-Alder cycloadditions.
Homoleptic quasilinear metal(i/ii) silylamides of Cr-Co with phenyl and allyl functions - impact of the oxidation state on secondary ligand interactions.

Herein we describe the synthesis and characterization of a variety of new quasilinear metal(i/ii) silylamides of the type [M(N(Dipp)SiR)] (M = Cr-Co) with different silyl substituents (SiR = SiPhMe (n = 1-3), SiMe(allyl)). By comparison of the solid state structures we show that in the case of phenyl substituents secondary metal-ligand interactions are suppressed upon reduction of the metal. Introduction of an allyl substituted silylamide gives divalent complexes with additional metal-π-alkene interactions with only weak activation of the C[double bond, length as m-dash]C bond but substantial bending of the principal N-M-N axis.
