- Scalable synthesis of vicinal quaternary stereocenters via the solid-state photodecarbonylation of a crystalline hexasubstituted ketone
-
We report the synthesis and stereospecific solid-state photodecarbonylation of a hexasubstituted ketone featuring six distinct α-substituents. The photoproduct of the solid-state transformation features vicinal all-carbon quaternary stereocenters. While reactions carried out in bulk powders and aqueous crystalline suspensions were complicated by secondary photochemistry of the primary photoproduct, optimal conditions provided good yields and recyclable starting material. Subsequent transformations of the α-substituents having orthogonal chemical reactivity illustrate the potential of this transformation toward constructing complex architectures.

- The use of dialkyl carbonates for safe and highly selective alkylations of methylene-active compounds. A process without waste production
-
The non-toxic compound dimethyl carbonate (DMC) can be used as a methylating and a methoxycarbonylating agent in place of methyl chloride and phosgene, respectively. We report here that DMC and other dialkyl carbonates (DAlkCs: dimethyl, diethyl and dibenzyl carbonates) allow very selective alkylations of a variety of CH2-acidic compounds. Both arylacetonitriles and alkyl arylacetates react with DAIkCs to yield the mono-C-alkylated derivatives (α-alkyl-α-arylacetonitriles and alkyl α-alkyl-α-arylacetates) with a selectivity of up to 99%, at complete conversion. Likewise, the mono-C-methylation by DMC proceeds selectively also on (aryloxy)acetonitriles and methyl (aryloxy)acetates. The reactions are carried out at temperature of 180-220°C in the presence of weak bases (usually K2CO3); under such conditions, DAlkCs efficiently replace the common and very toxic alkylating agents (dialkyl sulfates and alkyl halides). In addition to the high selectivity obtained and the intrinsic safety of the dialkyl carbonates, the reported reactions give rise to neither organic nor inorganic waste products.

- Selective Mono-methylation of Arylacetonitriles and Methyl Arylacetates by Dimethyl Carbonate
-
Both arylacetonitriles and methyl arylacetates react with dimethyl carbonate (DMC) (20 molar excess) at 180 - 200 deg C in the presence of K2CO3 to produce monomethylated 2-arylpropionitriles and methyl 2-arylpropionates, respectively, with a selectivity >99.5percent.The reaction, with wide application, proceeds by DMC acting as a methoxycarbonylating agent towards the ArCH-X anion (X = CN, CO2Me) and as a methylating agent to ArC-(CO2Me)X.DMC also proved to be the best solvent for such reactions.
