One-pot synthesis of α-methyl ketones starting from 1,3-diaryl propenols or 1-aryl propenols and methanol as a C1 source is demonstrated. This one-pot isomerization-methylation is catalyzed by commercially available Pd(OAc)2 with H2O as the only by-product. Mechanistic studies and deuterium labelling experiments indicate the involvement of isomerization of allyl alcohol followed by methylation through a hydrogen-borrowing pathway in these isomerization-methylation reactions.

A straightforward and general method has been developed for the synthesis of chalcone derivatives by a Claisen-Schmidt reaction in the presence of PPh3/I2 in 1,4-dioxane under reflux temperatures. With the condensation of the aromatic ketone and aldehyde occurring at non-strongly alkaline conditions, our proposed method significantly expands the range of applicable substrates, especially for groups that are unstable under alkaline conditions.

An efficient synthesis of a variety of 2-arylacetonitriles containing a fluorinated stereogenic center through organo-catalyzed Michael addition reaction of 2-fluoro-2-arylacetonitriles has been developed. This protocol uses a cheap organocatalyst (DBU) and has a broad substrate scope: α, β-unsaturated ketones, esters, nitriles and sulfones were all successfully reacted. Importantly, water proved to be a good solvent for this reaction.
