Journal ArticleDOI
Factors That Control C-C Cleavage versus C-H Bond Hydroxylation in Copper-Catalyzed Oxidations of Ketones with O2.
TL;DR: The role of hppH is uncovered to act not only as a base in the transformation but also as a reductant of the peroxide to the corresponding α-hydroxy ketone, allowing the tuning of reduction efficiency toward higher driving forces, if required.
Journal ArticleDOI
E-Olefins through intramolecular radical relocation
TL;DR: A nonprecious, reductant-free, and atom-economical nickel (Ni)(I)-catalyzed intramolecular 1,3-hydrogen atom relocation to yield E-olefins within 3 hours at room temperature is demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intramolecular Schmidt reaction involving primary azidoalcohols under nonacidic conditions: synthesis of indolizidine (-)-167B.
TL;DR: The synthetic potential offered by the mild reaction conditions is demonstrated by a highly selective synthesis of (-)-indolizidine 167B by a powerful intramolecular Schmidt reaction starting from primary azidoalcohols.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transition-Metal-Free Hydration of Nitriles Using Potassium tert-Butoxide under Anhydrous Conditions
TL;DR: The reaction proceeds smoothly for a broad range of substrates under mild conditions, providing an efficient and economically affordable synthetic route to the amides in excellent yields.
Journal ArticleDOI
Radical azidation reactions and their application in the synthesis of alkaloids
TL;DR: In this article, the transformation of sulfonyl azides using reductive processes as well as a Schmidt reaction under nonacidic conditions were used to synthesize alkaloids including indolizidine 167B, monomorine I, cylindricine C, and lepadiformine C.
