Abstract
Simple catalysts that use atom-economical oxygen as the terminal oxidant to accomplish selective ortho–ortho, ortho–para, or para–para homo-couplings of phenols are described. In addition, chromium salen catalysts have been discovered as uniquely effective in the cross-coupling of different phenols with high chemo- and regioselectivity.

Scalable Access to Arylomycins via C–H Functionalization Logic

TL;DR: A simplified route predicated on simple C–H functionalization logic that is enabled by a Cu-mediated oxidative phenol coupling that mimics the putative biosynthesis is presented, which is the largest of its kind and can be easily performed on gram scale.

Asymmetric Oxidative Coupling of 2-Hydroxycarbazoles

Paul Sung
TL;DR: The goal of the project is to use a chiral vanadium catalyst and oxygen to achieve high enantioselectivity in a more efficient oxidative coupling to form biscarbazoles.

Oxidative Coupling of Phenols

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors use the atom economical oxidant O2 and metal-based catalysts which mimic the active sites of the enzymes to bring about these transformations, which is a striking feature in many biosynthetic pathways.

Part A: Palladium(II)-catalyzed enantioselective Saucy-Marbet Claisen rearrangement of propargyloxy indoles to quaternary oxindoles and spirocyclic lactones. Part B: The regioselective oxidative coupling of phenols

Abstract: Part A. The first catalytic, enantioselective Saucy-Marbet Claisen rearrangement has been developed. Palladium(II) catalysts with BINAP or t-BuPHOX ligands were discovered as superior in catalyzing Claisen rearrangements of proparyloxy-substituted indoles to generate oxindoles bearing allenyl-substituted quaternary centers. Mechanistic evidence firmly established the intermediacy of a [3,3']-sigmatropic rearrangement vs ionic or stepwise processes. This method proved to be tolerant of a broad range of functional groups. Tandem reactions of the silyl-allene products provide rapid access to a variety of spirocyclic oxindoles in one operation. Part B. The formation of biaryl C-C bonds by oxidative reactions is a well-recognized process in biological systems, being the second most common way nature constructs C-C bonds. However, very little progress has been made in the development of catalytic, regioselective methods for the oxidative coupling of phenols. High throughput experimentation (HTE) was used to screen a series of redox-active Salen and Salan metal complexes in the presence of O2. Copper, manganese, vanadium and ruthenium-catalyzed oxidative coupling conditions were developed that efficiently afford biaryls from a number of phenols with high yield and regioselectivity.
