An efficient, metal free, direct and selective deoxygenation of α-hydroxy carbonyl compounds is achieved with the aid of catalytic amount of aqueous HClO4 (70 %) and triethylsilane as hydride source. A variety of α-hydroxy-α,α-diaryl carbonyl compounds are selectively deoxygenated to give α,α-diaryl carbonyl compounds in good to excellent yields. Intermediacy of α-keto carbenium ion is proposed on the basis of some control experiments and atmospheric pressure chemical ionization mass spectral analysis.

A Ni-catalyzed reductive cross-coupling of α-hydroxycarbonyl compounds modified with oxalyl groups and aryl halides has been developed that furnishes α-aryl esters under mild conditions and tolerates a variety of functionalized aryl halides bearing electron-withdrawing and -donating groups. This work highlights C-O bond fragmentation on secondary alkyl carbon centers that generates α-carbonyl radicals.
Regioselective 1,2-Diol Rearrangement by Controlling the Loading of BF3·Et2O and Its Application to the Synthesis of Related Nor-Sesquiterene- and Sesquiterene-Type Marine Natural Products

The regiocontrolled rearrangement of 1,2-diols has been achieved by controlling the loading of BF3·Et2O. Its applicability is showcased by the divergent synthesis of austrodoral, austrodoric acid, and 8-epi-11-nordriman-9-one, as well as a formal synthesis of siphonodictyal B and liphagal. A new light is shed on piancol-type rearrangements that will be useful in diversity-oriented synthesis of related natural products.
