- Copper-catalyzed TEMPO oxidative cleavage of 1,3-diketones and β-keto esters for the synthesis of 1,2-diketones and α-keto esters
-
A copper-catalyzed efficient and practical method has been developed for the synthesis of 1,2-diketones and α-keto esters. TEMPO was used as a radical initiator and scavenger, oxidizing the cleavage of α-methylene of 1,3-diketones and β-keto esters to form 1,2-diketones and α-keto esters. This method provided a general way for the formation of 1,2-dicarbonyl compounds.

- PPh3·HBr-DMSO: A Reagent System for Diverse Chemoselective Transformations
-
The broad applicability of the hitherto unexplored reagent combination PPh3·HBr-DMSO is exemplified with multiple highly diverse one-step transformations to synthetically useful building blocks, such as flavones, 4H-thiochromen-4-ones, α-hydroxy ketones, 1,4-naphthoquinones (including vitamin K3), 2-bromo-3-substituted-1H-1-indenones, 2-methylthio-1H-1-indenones, 3-butyne-1,2-dione, and 4-pentene-2,3-diones. The simple and mild reaction conditions make the reagent superior in terms of yield and substrate scope in comparison with the existing alternatives.

- Synthesis of 1,2-diketones from β-keto nitriles via a protection-oxidative-decyanation-deprotection protocol
-
A variety of 1,2-diketones were prepared from -keto nitriles via a three-step protocol including the protection of the ketones with methoxyamine, oxidative decyanation, and microwave-assisted deprotection in the final step. This approach provides a novel and efficient access to a wide scope of symmetric and unsymmetric 1,2-diketones using molecular oxygen as the oxidant in the decyanation process.
