Design and implementation of the first (asymmetric) Fe-catalyzed intra- and intermolecular difunctionalization of vinyl cyclopropanes (VCPs) with alkyl halides and aryl Grignard reagents has been realized via a mechanistically driven approach. Mechanistic studies support the diffusion of the alkyl radical intermediates out of the solvent cage to participate in an intra- or -intermolecular radical cascade with the VCP followed by re-entering the Fe radical cross-coupling cycle to undergo selective C(sp2)-C(sp3) bond formation. Overall, we provide new design principles for Fe-mediated radical processes and underscore the potential of using combined computations and experiments to accelerate the development of challenging transformations.

A metal-free oxidative coupling reaction of trifluoromethyl β-diketones with alcohols for the synthesis of α-keto esters in good to excellent yields has been developed. Preliminary mechanistic studies suggest that an I2/TBHP promoted sequential iodination, C–C bond cleavage, C–O bond formation and oxidation pathway is involved in this reaction.

We have developed a photoinduced oxidative cross-coupling of thiophenols with alcohols for O–S bond formation. The protocol uses visible light, a metal-free photocatalyst, and oxygen as the oxidant for the selective synthesis of alkyl benzenesulfonates; no ligand co-additive is necessary. Mechanistic studies suggested that the disulfide and alkyl benzenesulfinate are involved as intermediates and that the transformation proceeds by a radical pathway.

The serine phosphoric acid P-methylester (SPM) and the ethanol-amine phosphoric acid P-methylester (EPM) were synthesized as water soluble models for the functional groups of the corresponding phospholipids. Investigations were made of the aqueous solutions of these molecules as a function of deprotonation and protonation. An intramolecular, easily polarisable hydrogen bond occurs in the zwitterion of the SPM. The solutions of different salts of SPM were studied as well as the influence of counter ion pairs. Counterion pairs hardly influence these bonds. At about 50% deprotonation extremely easily polarisable intermolecular bonds form. At about 100% deprotonation of the zwitterion the hydrogen bonds observed are affected by the presence of CO2. The above is indicated by changes of the bands of the carboxylic and phosphate groups, and in particular by a continuous absorption in the infrared spectrum. During protonation of the EPM easily polarisable intermolecular POH+ ... OP hydrogen bonds form at first, but as protonation increases the solutions become acidic, that is, H5O2+ groupings form.
