We have developed cycloisomerization between an aryl vinyl ether and a functionalized alkyne, such as silylalkyne, to give 2,3-disubstituted benzofuran derivatives using [IrCl(cod)], PCy, and NaBAr. This catalyst system not only catalyzes the above cycloisomerization but also isomerize a terminal olefin to give an aryl vinyl ether.

Cobalt-Catalyzed Hydroglycosylation of Alkynes for the Synthesis of Vinyl α-C-Glycosides.
Angew Chem Int Ed Engl

Sichuan University, State Key Laboratory of Biotherapy, CHINA.
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.

Article Synopsis
- The hydrofluorination of enynoates allows for the efficient synthesis of fluorinated dienoates using a pyridinium tetrafluoroborate salt.
- This method effectively converts various aryl-substituted enynoates into the desired fluorinated products with significant control over their stereochemistry and regioselectivity.
- Mechanistic studies were performed to understand the reaction process better and to optimize the outcomes based on different reaction conditions.
Copper-Catalyzed Intermolecular [2 + 2 + 2] Annulation of Diynes with Alkynes: Construction of Carbazoles.

Transition-metal-catalyzed [2 + 2 + 2] annulation of alkynes is an efficient pathway for the synthesis of aromatic compounds. However, most of the established methods require noble metal catalysts. Herein, we report a copper-catalyzed intermolecular [2 + 2 + 2] annulation of diynes with alkynes through vinyl cation intermediates, enabling the atom-economical preparation of biologically important carbazole skeletons.

Herein, we report a Ni-catalyzed cross-electrophile coupling of aryl/vinyl halides with benzothiazolium salts derived from alcohols. Our findings demonstrate that primary alkyl benzothiazolium salts serve as effective C(sp)-O substrates, facilitating coupling with aryl and vinyl halides. This method not only enables the formal functionalization of primary alcohols but also provides experimental support for previously established sequential alcohol halogenation and Ni-catalyzed reductive coupling platforms.

In this study, we present a novel catalyst-free energy transfer mediated radical rearrangement strategy for the aryl-heterofunctionalization of unactivated alkynes, leading to the synthesis of polyfunctional olefins with exceptional stereoselectivity. This innovative approach, driven by visible light, exemplifies green chemistry principles by eliminating the reliance on transition metals, external oxidants, and photocatalysts. The broad applicability of our method is demonstrated through the successful synthesis of a diverse array of compounds, including vinyl sulfones, vinyl selenides, and vinyl sulfides.
