Wacker-type oxidation of alkynes into 1,2-diketones using molecular oxygen.
نویسندگان
چکیده
An intriguing new Wacker-type oxidation of alkynes catalyzed by PdBr(2) and CuBr(2) is described, which opens an efficient access to 1,2-diketones using molecular oxygen. Under the optimized conditions, a variety of alkynes, including diarylalkynes, arylalkylalkynes, and dialkylalkynes, were compatible substrates in this transformation. The mechanism of this reaction was preliminarily investigated by control experiments.

Synthesis of 1,2-Diketones via a Metal-Free, Visible-Light-Induced Aerobic Photooxidation of Alkynes.
1,2-Diketones were synthesized by the oxidation of corresponding alkynes using air as the oxidant under metal-free conditions upon irradiation of blue light. A cheap and readily available organic dye, eosin Y, was used as the photocatalyst. For various substituents on the aryl ring, the reaction proceeded smoothly to give the dicarbonylation products in moderate to good yields. Some oxidation-s...
متن کاملSelective oxygenation of alkynes: a direct approach to diketones and vinyl acetate.
Arylalkynes can be converted into α-diketones with the use of a copper catalyst, and also be transformed into vinyl acetates under metal-free conditions, both in the presence of PhI(OAc)2 as an oxidant at room temperature. A series of substituted α-diketones were prepared in moderate to good yields. A variety of vinyl halides could be regio- and stereo-selectively synthesized under mild conditi...

A gold-catalyzed oxidation of arylallenes to form α-diketones and aldehydes in good yields is presented. Further directed synthesis of quinoxalines and benzimidazoles, via the condensation of the resulting α-diketones and aldehydes with benzene-1,2-diamine, was achieved in high yields.

1-Silyl-2,6-diketones, readily prepared by addition of (silylmethyl)metal reagents to 1,5-lactols followed by oxidation of the resultant diols, can be efficiently transformed into 3-hydroxycyclohexanones, cyclohex-2-enones, or 1-(silylmethyl)cyclopentane-1,2-diols under nucleophilic, basic, or single electron-transfer reduction conditions, respectively. The latter cyclitols can be further trans...
متن کاملFormation of highly ordered self-assembled monolayers of alkynes on Au(111) substrate.
Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs), prepared by reaction of terminal n-alkynes (HC≡C(CH2)nCH3, n = 5, 7, 9, and 11) with Au(111) at 60 °C were characterized using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), infrared reflection absorption spectroscopy (IRRAS), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and contact angles of water. In contrast to previous spectroscopic studies of this type of SAMs, these com...
