RESUMO
Ketones exist widely in naturally occurring products and are indispensable building blocks in organic synthesis. Carbonylation represents one of the most straightforward methods for ketone preparation and has become an attractive field in modern organic chemistry as well. Among the strategies, photocatalytic carbonylation is also worthy of further exploration. Herein, we developed a three-component carbonylation that provides a new method for the synthesis of ketones from Hantzsch esters, CO and styrenes. The reaction was performed under a blue light environment and yields a series of ketones with moderate to good yields.
RESUMO
Carbonylative multifunctionalization of alkenes is an efficient approach to introduce multiple functional groups into one molecule from easily available materials. Herein, we developed an iron-catalyzed radical relay carbonylative cyclization of alkenes with acetamides. Various α-tetralones can be constructed in moderate yields from readily available substrates with an earth-abundant iron salt as the catalyst.
RESUMO
γ-Amino acids and peptides analogues are common constituents of building blocks for numerous biologically active molecules, pharmaceuticals, and natural products. In particular, γ-amino acids are providing with better metabolic stability than α-amino acids. Herein we report a multicomponent carbonylation technology that combines readily available amides, alkenes, and the feedstock gas carbon monoxide to build architecturally complex and functionally diverse γ-amino acid derivatives in a single step by the implementation of radical relay catalysis. This transformation can also be used as a late-stage functionalization strategy to deliver complex, advanced γ-amino acid products for pharmaceutical and other areas.

The direct concurrent installation of amide and ester groups across olefin motifs represents a powerful and promising functionalization tool in organic chemistry. Herein, a ligand-free cobalt-catalyzed four-component radical relay carbonylative difunctionalization of ethylene for the synthesis of 4-oxobutanoates has been developed. Valuable C4 building blocks were produced in a highly atom-economical fashion.
RESUMO
Herein, a new reaction for the site-selective carbonylation of arenes via C(sp2)-H thianthrenation under mild conditions has been developed. With low loadings of palladium catalysts, various desired 1,2-diarylethanones are produced in good yields. This strategy also enables the late-stage modification of complex molecules, which was previously challenging with similar carbonylative Negishi-type reactions.
RESUMO
Carbenes are highly active reaction intermediates, which can be used as reaction precursors to modify organisms, drugs, and material molecules. In this work, we realized a new cheap metal-catalyzed carbonylation of carbene to give propanedioic acid derivatives. With copper salt as the catalyst, synthetically important malonates and related compounds were produced in good yields under mild reaction conditions.
RESUMO
Carbonylative multi-component reactions (CMCR), having four or more kinds of starting materials, provide an efficient strategy for the preparation of polyfunctional carbonylated compounds. Diverse CMCR utilizing non-noble transition-metal catalysts have been developed. This review summarized and discussed the recent advances in non-noble metal-catalyzed carbonylative multi-component reactions.
RESUMO
Multi-component carbonylation of olefins, a reaction that installs both a carbon-carbon(heteroatom) bond and a carbonyl group across the double bond, is an attractive strategy for alkene functionalization. Herein, we developed a novel nickel-catalyzed four-component carbonylation of olefins with ethers under low CO gas pressure. Using alcohols and amines as the reaction partner, diverse γ-oxy-substituted esters and amides were produced in good yields with excellent functional group tolerance. Notably, Naftidrofuryl, a medicine for the treatment of cerebrovascular disease (CVD), can be synthesized by this process straightforwardly.
RESUMO
A palladium-catalyzed desulfonative carbonylation of thiosulfonates has been explored. Without any additive, a series of S-aryl/alkyl benzenesulfonothioates were successfully transformed to thioesters in moderate to excellent yields by SO2 extrusion and CO insertion under the pressure of 1 bar of CO. The solvent dimethylacetamide (DMAc) facilitated this desulfonative carbonylation due to its high absorbing ability of SO2.
RESUMO
The synthesis of diverse products from the same starting materials is always attractive in organic chemistry. Here, a palladium-catalyzed substrate-controlled regioselective functionalization of unactivated alkenes with trifluoroacetimidoyl chlorides has been developed, which provides a direct but controllable access to a variety of structurally diverse trifluoromethyl-containing indoles and indolines. In more detail, with respect to γ,δ-alkenes, 1,1-geminal difunctionalization of unactivated alkenes with trifluoroacetimidoyl chloride enables the [4 + 1] annulation to produce indoles; as for ß,γ-alkenes, a [3 + 2] heteroannulation with the hydrolysis product of trifluoroacetimidoyl chloride through 1,2-vicinal difunctionalization of alkenes occurs to deliver indoline products. The structure of alkene substrates differentiates the regioselectivity of the reaction.
RESUMO
Ethers are of central importance in the fields of biomass, energy, and organic chemistry. Herein, a novel cobalt-catalyzed carbonylative coupling of ethers with amines to construct α-carbonylated ethers has been achieved. Remarkably, Alfuzosin, a medicine for treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), can be synthesized by this process straightforwardly. Notably, this protocol presents the first example on the direct carbonylative reaction of ethers.

RESUMO
A metal-free cascade coupling/iodoaminocyclization reaction for the rapid assembly of 2-trifluoromethyl-imidazolines has been disclosed. The transformation applies readily accessible trifluoroacetimidoyl chlorides, allylamines and N-iodosuccinimides as the starting substrates, achieving an efficient and straightforward pathway to construct diverse imidazoline derivatives. Excellent efficiency of the reaction is observed (higher than 90% isolated yield for half of the examples), and the obtained imidazoline products bearing a pendent iodomethyl group could be easily transformed into other synthetically valuable compounds.
RESUMO
An FeCl3-mediated cascade coupling/decarbonylative annulation reaction for the efficient construction of 2-(trifluoromethyl)quinazolin-4(3H)-ones has been developed. This transformation employs readily available isatins and trifluoroacetimidoyl chlorides as the starting materials, providing a facile and practical route to diverse biologically relevant quinazolin-4(3H)-one derivatives. A plausible reaction pathway has been proposed based on the mechanistic observations.
RESUMO
Recent advances in the carbonylative synthesis of heterocycles by using diverse CO surrogates as sources of CO are summarized and discussed. The merger of carbonylative transformations involving CO surrogates with heterocyclic compound syntheses provides a powerful and promising tool for the construction of a series of carbonyl-containing heterocyclic compounds. In contrast to toxic and flammable gaseous carbon monoxide, most of the CO surrogates are readily available, bench-stable, harmless and easy to handle. This feature article will mainly focus on heterocycle syntheses involving CO surrogates, including formic acid, formates, molybdenum hexacarbonyl, etc.
RESUMO
In this communication, an interesting carbonylation protocol for the preparation of α-branched enones has been established. Starting from readily available aryl iodides and allenes, with formic acid as the CO source and reductant, moderate to good yields of the desired enones were isolated. Although it is a carbonylation methodology, the use of a CO source can avoid the manipulation of CO gas directly. Notably, this procedure also presents the first example on carbonylative synthesis of α-branched enones.
