- Iron-Catalyzed Ring-Opening Reactions of Cyclopropanols with Alkenes and TBHP: Synthesis of 5-Oxo Peroxides
-
The ring opening of cyclopropanols is rarely used in multicomponent reactions. Herein we report the three-component reaction of cyclopropanols with alkenes and tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) catalyzed by an iron catalyst. This protocol enables the incorporation of both the β-carbonyl fragment and a peroxy unit across the C=C double bond regioselectively, thus allowing an efficient, facile access to 5-oxo peroxides. Modification of the biologically active molecules and various downstream derivatizations of the peroxides are also demonstrated.

- Aryl Pyrazoles from Photocatalytic Cycloadditions of Arenediazonium
-
A photocatalytic synthesis of 1,5-diaryl pyrazoles from arenediazoniums and arylcyclopropanols is reported. The reaction proceeded under mild conditions (rt, 20 min) with catalytic [Ru(bpy)3]2+ under blue-light irradiation and exhibited compatibility with several functional groups (e.g., I, SF5, SO2NH2, N3, CN) and perfect levels of regiocontrol. Mechanistic studies (luminescence spectroscopy, CV, DFT, radical trapping, quantum yield determination) documented an initial oxidative quenching of the excited photocatalyst and the operation of a radical-chain mechanism.

- Visible-Light-Induced Alkoxyl Radical Generation Enables Selective C(sp3)-C(sp3) Bond Cleavage and Functionalizations
-
The alkoxyl radical is an important reactive intermediate in mechanistic studies and organic synthesis; however, its current generation from alcohol oxidation heavily relies on transition metal activation under strong oxidative conditions. Here we report the first visible-light-induced alcohol oxidation to generate alkoxyl radicals by cyclic iodine(III) reagent catalysis under mild reaction conditions. The β-fragmentation of alkoxyl radicals enables selective C(sp3)-C(sp3) bond cleavage and alkynylation/alkenylation reactions with various strained cycloalkanols, and for the first time with linear alcohols.

- A facile cyclopropanol synthesis from β-halo ester with Grignard reagent-samarium(II) diiodide couple
-
Transformation of α,β-halo ester to the cyclopropanols by a coupled reagent of samarium(II) diiodide with Grignard reagent in tetrahydrofuran-hexamethylphosphoric triamide was very successful under mild conditions.
