A highly efficient double-hydroamination reaction of o-alkynylanilines with terminal alkynes leading to N-alkenylindoles was developed by using gold(III) as a catalyst under neat conditions. [reaction: see text].

A one-pot process was developed to synthesize in moderate to high yield a series of 2-substituted indoles and 7-azaindoles starting from 2-iodo--mesylarylamines and terminal alkynes in the presence of CuO in DMF at 90-120 °C. Without isolation of any intermediate, our optimized conditions enabled the introduction of ester, phenyl, hydroxymethyl, hydroxyethyl, -Boc-aminomethyl, and methyl at the 2-postion of indoles and 7-azaindoles. The reaction tolerates a variety of substrates containing halogens, or acid- or base-sensitive functional groups without requiring a Pd catalyst, a ligand, or a base.

Herein we report a cobalt-catalyzed hydroglycosylation of terminal alkynes, employing bench-stable ortho-iodobiphenyl (oIB) substituted sulfides as glycosyl donors. This reaction occurs with high stereo- and regioselectivity to afford E-configured vinyl α-C-glycosides, a class of compounds nontrivial to access by previous methods. The use of a bis(oxazoline) ligand with bulky side chains is critical for the high selectivities observed.

The group 1 alumanyls, [{SiN}AlM] (M = K, Rb, Cs; SiN = {CHSiMeNDipp}), display a variable kinetic facility (K < Rb < Cs) toward oxidative addition of the acidic C-H bond of terminal alkynes to provide the corresponding alkali metal hydrido(alkynyl)aluminate derivatives. Theoretical analysis of the formation of these compounds through density functional theory (DFT) calculations implies that the experimentally observed changes in reaction rate are a consequence of the variable stability of the [{SiN}AlM] dimers, the integrity of which reflects the ability of M to maintain the polyhapto group 1-arene interactions necessary for dimer propagation. These observations highlight that such "on-dimer" reactivity takes place sequentially and also that the ability of each constituent Al(I) center to effect the activation of the organic substrate is kinetically differentiated.

A modular platform technology for the synthesis of α-aryl carbonyl derivatives via Borono-Catellani-type secondary alkylation of arenes is presented. This practical method features a broad substrate scope regarding aryl boronic acid catechol esters, secondary alkyl bromides, and diversified terminating reagents (e.g.

The development of a metallic copper-based catalyst system remains a significant challenge. Herein, we report the synthesis of highly stable, active, and reusable Cu0 catalyst for the carboboration of alkynes using carbon electrophiles and bis(pinacolato)diboron (B2pin2) as chemical feedstocks to afford di- and trisubstituted vinylboronate esters in a regio- and stereoselective manner with appreciable turnover number (TON) of up to 2535 under mild reaction conditions. This three-component coupling reaction works well with a variety of substituted electrophiles and alkynes with broad functional group tolerance.
