The effects of the variation of solvent, pyridinium leaving group, N-substituent, and nitronate nucleophile have been studied in the C-alkylation of nitronate anions.These variations and studies of the effects of inhibitors, attempted entrainment reactions, and ESR work are all in accord with our previously suggested mechanism.

An iridium-catalyzed highly chemoselective and efficient transfer hydrogenation reduction of structurally diverse nitroalkenes was realized at very low catalyst loading (S/C = up to 10000 or 20?000), using formic acid or sodium formate as a traceless hydride donor in water. Excellent functionality tolerance is also observed. The turnover number and turnover frequency of the catalyst reach as high as 18?600 and 19?200 h-1, respectively. An inert atmosphere protection is not required. The reactivities of nitroalkenes are dependent on their substitution pattern, and the pH value is a key factor to accomplish the complete conversion and excellent chemoselectivity. Purification of products is achieved by simple extraction without column chromatography. The reduction procedure is facilely amplified to 10 g scale at 10?000 S/C ratio. The potential of this green reduction in enantioselective hydrogenation has been demonstrated.

Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) have gained attention as green and safe as well as economically and environmentally sustainable alternative to the traditional organic solvents. Here, we report the combination of an atom-economic, very convenient and inexpensive reagent, such as BH3NH3, with bio-based eutectic mixtures as biorenewable solvents in the synthesis of nitroalkanes, valuable precursors of amines. A variety of nitrostyrenes and alkyl-substituted nitroalkenes, including α- and β-substituted nitroolefins, were chemoselectively reduced to the nitroalkanes, with an atom economy-oriented, simple and convenient experimental procedure. A reliable and easily reproducible protocol to isolate the product without the use of any organic solvent was established, and the recyclability of the DES mixture was successfully investigated.
Expanding the Biocatalytic Toolbox with a New Type of ene/yne-Reductase from Cyclocybe aegerita

This study introduces a new type of ene/yne-reductase from Cyclocybe aegerita with a broad substrate scope including aliphatic and aromatic alkenes/alkynes from which aliphatic C8-alkenones, C8-alkenals and aromatic nitroalkenes were the preferred substrates. By comparing alkenes and alkynes, a ~2-fold lower conversion towards alkynes was observed. Furthermore, it could be shown that the alkyne reduction proceeds via a slow reduction of the alkyne to the alkene followed by a rapid reduction to the corresponding alkane. An accumulation of the alkene was not observed. Moreover, a regioselective reduction of the double bond in α,β-position of α,β,γ,δ-unsaturated alkenals took place. This as well as the first biocatalytic reduction of different aliphatic and aromatic alkynes to alkanes underlines the novelty of this biocatalyst. Thus with this study on the new ene-reductase CaeEnR1, a promising substrate scope is disclosed that describes conceivably a broad occurrence of such reactions within the chemical landscape.
