Published: October 2014

We report a conceptually different approach toward E-stilbene syntheses by photoinduced direct C-H arylation of alkenes at rt without the addition of transition metals, with a broad range of aryl halides, including ArI, ArBr, and even ArCl. This is the first time that this reaction has been produced without extra solvent but with 18-crown-6 ether and t-BuOK in only 15 min of reaction.

Herein, we report a transition-metal-free C-H bond sulfoximidation protocol of sulfonyl hydrazones with hypervalent iodine(III) reagents. A library of novel -sulfaneylidenehydrazonamides was constructed via chemoselective C-N bond formation reactions at aldehyde C-H bonds of sulfonyl hydrazones in the presence of a base. The reaction demonstrated broad substrate group diversity under exceedingly mild reaction conditions, and excellent yields were achieved at room temperature.

Diarylformamides as a Safe Reservoir and Room Temperature Source of Ultra-Pure CO in the Context of a 'Green' rWGS Reaction.

Diphenylformamide 1 and bisformamide 9 are shown to be safe reservoirs and sources of CO. Their perfectly selective decarbonylations are achieved in solution at room temperature with potassium and cesium diarylamide catalysts. 1 is obtained in excellent yields directly from triethylammonium formate, which may be the product of CO scrubbing with NEt and catalytic hydrogenation.

Catalytic cross-coupling between aryl halides and alkynes is considered an extremely important organic transformation (popularly known as the Sonogashira coupling) and it requires a transition metal-based catalyst. Accomplishing such transformation without any transition metal-based catalyst in the absence of any external stimuli such as heat, photoexcitation or cathodic current is highly challenging. This work reports transition-metal-free cross-coupling between aryl halides and alkynes synthesizing a rich library of internal alkynes without any external stimuli.

A simple, efficient, and practical method for the synthesis of S-quinolyl xanthates was developed via TsO-promoted deoxygenative C-H dithiocarbonation of quinoline N-oxides with various potassium O-alkyl xanthates. The reaction performed well under transition-metal-free, base-free, and room-temperature conditions with wide substrate tolerance. Employing potassium --butyl xanthate (BuOCSK) as a nucleophile, some valuable quinoline-2-thiones were unexpectedly obtained in a one-pot reaction without any additional base.

A convenient, efficient and practical approach for the synthesis of -quinolyl phosphorothioates cheap TsCl promoted deoxygenative C2-H phosphorothiolation of quinoline -oxides with readily available triethylammonium ,-dialkylphosphorothioates was developed. The reaction performed well under transition-metal-free conditions at room temperature with a very short reaction time (10-20 min). Preliminary studies showed that the current transformation underwent a nucleophilic substitution process.
