A series of svnthetically interesting, functionalized alkynes were obtained with moderate to good enanttiselectivities (up to 83% ee). Cu(ll) carbene migratory insertion is proposed to be the enantio-determining step. KEYWORDS C(sp)--C(sp^3) cross-coupling, metal carbene, asymmetric catalysis, Cu(I) catalysts, N-tosylhydrazones展开更多

Herein, we reported on blue light-induced cyclopropenizations of N-tosylhydrazones in water, which avoids the use of expensive metal-based catalysts and toxic organic solvents. This metal-free and operationally simple methodology enable highly efficient cyclopropenizations, X-H insertion reactions, and cyclopropanation under mild reaction conditions.展开更多

This methodology was achieved by one-pot two-step reactions involving the preparation of N-tosylhydrazones by reacting tosylhydrazide with biphenyl ketones/aldehydes, followed by coupling with aryl bromides (or benzyl halides) in the presence of Pd(PPh3)4 and lithium t-butoxide to produce various di-substituted aryl olefins in moderate to good yields.展开更多
