In this paper, we report an eco-friendly approach for the C(sp)-H bond selenylation of imidazopyridines and other N-heteroarenes as well as simple arenes at ambient temperature. This new protocol consists of the reaction between (N-hetero)-arenes and the diorganyl-diselenides and trichloroisocyanuric acid (TCCA)-ethanol reagent system. In a short reaction time, the desired selenylated products were obtained regioselectively in good yields, with tolerance for a wide range of functional groups.

2-Propargyl-1,3-dicarbonyl compounds have been carbonylated under oxidative conditions and with the catalysis of the PdI/KI catalytic system to selectively afford previously unreported 2-(4-acylfuran-2-yl)acetamides in fair to good yields (54-81%) over 19 examples. The process takes place under relatively mild conditions and occurs via a mechanistic pathway involving C-H activation by oxidative monoamincarbonylation of the terminal triple bond of the substrates with formation of 2-ynamide intermediates, followed by 5---cyclization (via intramolecular conjugate addition of the in situ formed enolate to the 2-ynamide moiety) and aromative isomerization.

Synthesis of bicyclic p-diiodobenzenes via silver-catalyzed Csp-H iodination and ruthenium-catalyzed cycloaddition.

J Am Chem Soc

Department of Applied Chemistry Graduate School of Engineering, Nagoya University, Chikusa, Nagoya 464-8603, Japan.

Highly substituted iodobenzenes were efficiently and regioselectively synthesized from readily available 1,6-diynes via two-step process consisting of silver-catalyzed Csp-H iodination and subsequent ruthenium-catalyzed [2 + 2 + 2] cycloaddition of resultant iododiynes. Some of the obtained iodobenzenes were subjected to palladium-catalyzed C-C bond-forming reactions such as Mizoroki-Heck reaction, Sonogashira reaction, and Suzuki-Miyaura coupling, giving highly conjugated molecules.
