Abstract: Iodine-mediated selective synthesis of β-uramino crotonic esters was achieved via the reaction of β-dicarbonyls and urea at room temperature. Choline chloride/urea mixture, as an eco-friendly, cheap, non-toxic, and recyclable deep eutectic solvent (DES), was employed as sustainable media as well as reagent at the same time in these transformations. Some derivatives of β-uramino crotonic esters were synthesized with good to high yields without a tedious work-up. The process could be done to synthesize the above-mentioned compounds in gram scale. Moreover, oxidative cross-esterification of carboxylic acids with alkyl benzenes was carried out in the above-mentioned DES by the employment of tetrabutylammonium iodide (TBAI) as the catalyst and tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) as the oxidant at 80?°C. DES/TBAI system was reused up to five consecutive times. Graphic abstract: Iodine-catalyzed C–N and C–O bond formation in choline chloride/urea as a green solvent under the mild reaction conditions.

The presence of different aldehydes is found to have a significant influence on the catalytic performance when using PN(H)P type ligands for dehydrogenation of alcohols. Accordingly, hybrid multi-dentate ligands were discovered based on an oxygen-transfer alkylation of PNP ligands by aldehydes. The relevant Ru-PNN(PO) system provided the desired unsymmetrical esters in good yields via acceptorless dehydrogenation of alcohols. Hydrogen bonding interactions between the phosphine oxide moieties and alcohol substrates likely assisted the observed high chemoselectivity.

A novel catalytic system with a tripodal cobalt complex is developed for efficiently converting primary alcohols to esters. KOtBu is found essential to the transformation. A preliminary mechanistic study suggests a plausible reaction route that involves an initial Co-catalyzed dehydrogenation of alcohol to aldehyde, followed by a Tishchenko-type pathway to ester mediated by KOtBu.
