A one-step, oxidative bisfunctionalization of alkynes to generate cis -enediol diacetates catalyzed by ruthenium carbonyl (triruthenium dodecacarbonyl) is presented. The reaction was performed using the alkyne, (diacetoxyiodo)benzene, Ru 3 (CO) 12 as the catalyst, and toluene as the solvent at 100 °C to give the cis -enediol diacetates in up to 82percent yields. This method overcomes the shortcomings of existing methods, such as tedious reaction steps, substrate limitations, and the use of toxic reagents. Furthermore, the reaction of module cis -enediol diacetates with ammonium carbonate [(NH 4) 2 CO 3 ] in an alcohol solvent gave imidazole derivatives in 37-84percent yields, thus providing a simple and mild new method for the synthesis of imidazole compounds.

A simple protocol for performing chromium-catalyzed highly diastereoselective alkylations of arylmagnesium halides with cyclohexyl iodides at ambient temperature has been developed. Furthermore, this ligand-free CrCl2 enables efficient electrophilic alkenylations of primary, secondary, and tetiary alkylmagnesium halides with readily available alkenyl acetates. Moreover, this chemoselective C-C coupling reaction with stereodefined alkenyl acetates proceeds in a stereoretentive fashion. A wide range of functional groups on alkyl iodides and alkenyl acetates are well tolerated, thus furnishing functionalized Csp2-Csp3 coupling products in good yields and high diastereoselectivity. Detailed mechanistic studies suggest that the in situ generated low-valent chromium(I) species might be the active catalyst for these Csp2-Csp3 cross-couplings.
