Formate-mediated reductive cross-couplings of vinyl halides with aryl iodides via palladium(I) catalysis occur with highly uncommon -substitution. The active dianionic palladium(I) catalyst, [PdI][NBu], is generated from Pd(OAc), BuNI, and formate. Oxidative addition of aryl iodide followed by dissociation of the dimer provides the monomeric anionic T-shaped arylpalladium(II) species, [Pd(Ar)(I)(NBu)], which, upon vinyl halide carbopalladation, forms products of -substitution by way of palladium(IV) carbenes, as corroborated by deuterium-labeling experiments.

Using captured CO and C1-feedstocks like formate and methanol derived from electrochemical activation of CO are key solutions for transforming industrial processes towards a circular carbon economy. Engineering formate and CO-based growth in the biotechnologically relevant yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae could boost the emergence of a formate-mediated circular bio-economy. This study adopts a growth-coupled selection scheme for modular implementation of the Reductive Glycine Pathway (RGP) and subsequent Adaptive Laboratory Evolution (ALE) to enable formate and CO assimilation for biomass formation in yeast.

The first deoxygenative Heck reactions are described, as illustrated by formate-mediated -substitutions of vinyl triflates with aryl iodides. The collective data corroborate a mechanism in which Pd(OAc) and BuNI form the dianionic iodide-bridged dimer [PdI][NBu], which, under reducing conditions, serves as a precursor to the palladium(I) complex [PdI][NBu]. Dinculear oxidative addition of aryl iodide forms [PdI(Ar)][NBu], which dissociates to the monometallic complex [PdI(Ar)][NBu].

Two catalytic systems for the formate-mediated cross-electrophile reductive coupling of 4-iodoansiole with 6-bromopyridines are described. Using homogenous rhodium or heterogeneous palladium catalysts, the product of reductive biaryl cross-coupling could be formed in moderate yield with excellent levels of chemoselectivity.

A regiodivergent catalytic method for direct conversion of aldehydes to branched or linear alkyl ketones is described. Rhodium complexes modified by P BuMe catalyze formate-mediated aldehyde-vinyl bromide reductive coupling-redox isomerization to form branched ketones. Use of the less strongly coordinating ligand, PPh, promotes vinyl- to allylrhodium isomerization en route to linear ketones.
