Recent advances in positional-selective alkenylations: removable guidance for twofold C–H activation
TL;DR: Various easily removable or transformable directing groups utilized in the transition metal-catalyzed oxidative C–H alkenylations are discussed in this review until February 2017.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ruthenium(II)-catalyzed oxidative C-H alkenylations of sulfonic acids, sulfonyl chlorides and sulfonamides.
TL;DR: The optimized cross-dehydrogenative alkenylation protocol proved applicable to differently substituted arenes and a variety of alkenes, including vinyl arenes, sulfones, nitriles and ketones, and the robustness of the ruthenium(II) catalyst was demonstrated by the chemoselective oxidative olefination of sulfonamides as well as sulfonyl chlorides.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cobalt(II)-Catalyzed Oxidative C–H Alkenylations: Regio- and Site-Selective Access to Isoindolin-1-one
Wenbo Ma,Lutz Ackermann +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, Isoindolinone derivatives were prepared in a step-economical fashion by a C-H/N-H functionalization process with a catalytic system composed of Co(OAc)2 and Mn(OAC)2 or AgOPiv.
Journal ArticleDOI
Oxidative Alkenylation of Aromatic Esters by Ruthenium-Catalyzed Twofold C–H Bond Cleavages
TL;DR: The oxidative Fujiwara-Moritani-type alkenylation provided step-economical access to diversely substituted styrenes and proved viable in an aerobic manner.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ruthenium(II)-catalyzed C-H alkenylations of phenols with removable directing groups.
Wenbo Ma,Lutz Ackermann +1 more
TL;DR: Detailed mechanistic studies were performed and provided strong support for an initial reversible CH bond activation by the formation of six-membered ruthenacycles as the key intermediates.
