- B(C6F5)3-Catalyzed Hydrosilylation of Vinylcyclopropanes
-
A hydrosilylation of vinylcyclopropanes (VCPs) catalyzed by the strong boron Lewis acid B(C6F5)3 is reported. For the majority of VCPs, little or no ring opening of the cyclopropyl unit is observed. Conversely, for VCPs with bulky R groups, such as ortho-substituted aryl rings or branched alkyl residues, ring opening is the exclusive reaction pathway. This finding is explained by the thwarted hydride delivery to a sterically shielded, β-silicon-stabilized cyclopropylcarbinyl cation intermediate.

- Electrochemical [4+2] Annulation-Rearrangement-Aromatization of Styrenes: Synthesis of Naphthalene Derivatives
-
We report the first electrochemical strategy to synthesize functionalized naphthalene derivatives through [4+2] annulation—rearrangement–aromatization from styrenes under mild conditions. The electrolysis does not require metals, oxidants and high valence substrates, indicating the atom and step-economy ideals. The dehydrodimer produced through [4+2] cycloaddition of 4-methoxy α-methyl styrene is isolated and proved to be the key intermediate for the following oxydehydrogenation to form carbon cation, which undergoes rearrangement–aromatization to afford the final products. This reaction represents a powerful access to construct multi-substituted naphthalene blocks in a single step.

- Difluoroalkylation/C-H Annulation Cascade Reaction Induced by Visible-Light Photoredox Catalysis
-
We report the first example of difluoroalkylation/C-H annulation cascade reactions of cyclopropyl olefins induced by visible-light photoredox catalysis regioselectively affording partially hydrogenated naphthalenes and quinolines with a variety of difluorinated side chains. The alkylation reagent could be extended to monofluoro and trifluoro reagents, nitrile and malonate. The regioselectivity was investigated by means of density functional theory calculations.

- The action of sodium hydrogen telluride on olefins
-
The action of sodium hydrogen telluride, NaTeH, on non electrophilic carbon-arbon double bonds has been investigated.The reaction is found to be very sensitive to the substituents on the ethylenic linkage. Whereas phenyl conjugated olefins are reduced to alkylbenzenes,the reagent adds to isolated mono and disubstituted double bonds leading to organotellurium derivatives and with gem-disubstituted ones it leads to a mixture of reduction and addition products. These results are interpreted in terms of a radical pair mechanism involving hydrogen atom transfer from hydrogen telluride,HTe- to the double bond.

- REACTION OF 2,2-DISUBSTITUTED 1-(DIBROMOMETHYLENE)CYCLOPROPANES WITH METHYLLITHIUM

In the reaction of 2,2-disubstituted 1-(dibromomethylene)cyclopropanes with methyllithium 4,4-disubstituted 1-buten-3-ynes and 2,2-disubstituted (1-bromoethylidene)cyclopropanes are formed in ratios which depend on the character of substitution in the cyclopropane ring.
