Under blue-light irradiation conditions with a photocatalyst [1,2,3,5-tetrakis(carbazol-9-yl)-4,6-dicyanobenzene], silyl enol ethers reacted with alkenes in the presence of a small amount of water to afford the α-alkylation products in good to high yields. A thiol cocatalyst was found to expand the substrate scope of the reaction.

A Hexavalent Tellurium-Based Chalcogen Bonding Catalysis Platform: High Catalytic Activity and Controlling of Selectivity.

Herein, we describe a hexavalent tellurium-based chalcogen bonding catalysis platform capable of addressing reactivity and selectivity issues. This research demonstrates that hexavalent tellurium salts can serve as a class of highly active chalcogen bonding catalysts for the first time. The tellurium centers in these hexavalent catalysts have only one exposed interaction site, thus providing a favorable condition for the controlling of reaction selectivity.

A reaction sequence of visible light-mediated cyclopropanation/acid-promoted ring-opening is described for the formal alkylation of silyl enol ethers with aryldiazoacetates. Under the same conditions, the Danishefsky's diene can react with aryldiazoacetates to afford [4+1]-cycloaddition adducts. Key mechanistic aspects are proposed based on experimental evidence and DFT calculations.

Hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) processes provide an important strategy for selective C-H functionalization. Compared with the popularity of 1,5-HAT processes, however, net-1,2-HAT reactions have been reported less frequently. Herein, we report a unique visible-light-mediated net-1,2-HAT of amidyl radicals for the synthesis of β-amido ketone derivatives.

Compared to the widely explored enol silanes, the applicability of their extended variants especially as bisvinylogous nucleophiles in enantioselective catalysis has been sparse. Herein, we describe the first enantioselective vinylogous and bisvinylogous allenylic substitution using silyl dienol and trienol ethers, respectively, as a nucleophile. With racemic allenylic alcohols as the electrophile, these enantioconvergent reactions are cooperatively catalyzed by an Ir(I)/(phosphoramidite,olefin) complex and Lewis acidic La(OTf) and display remarkable regio- and diastereoselectivity in most cases.

A highly efficient rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrosilylation of aldehydes, ketones, and α,β-unsaturated ketones with dihydrosilanes is developed, that allows the rapid assembly of a variety of Si-stereogenic alkoxysilanes and silyl enol ethers in good yields and enantioselectivities under mild conditions. The applicability of this methodology was demonstrated by a series of stereospecific transformations to construct diverse Si-stereogenic derivatives.
