Daniel J. Weix of the University of Rochester effected (Org. Lett. 2012, 14, 1476) the in situ reductive coupling of an alkyl halide 2 with an acid chloride 1 to deliver the ketone 3. André B. Charette of the Université de Montréal (not illustrated) developed (Nature Chem. 2012, 4, 228) an alternative route to ketones by the coupling of an organometallic with an in situ-activated secondary amide. Mahbub Alam and Christopher Wise of the Merck, Sharpe and Dohme UK chemical process group optimized (Org. Process Res. Dev. 2012, 16, 453) the opening of an epoxide 4 with a Grignard reagent 5. Ling Song of the Fujian Institute of Research on the Structure of Matter optimized (J. Org. Chem. 2012, 77, 4645) conditions for the 1,2-addition of a Grignard reagent (not illustrated) to a readily enolizable ketone. Wei-Wei Liao of Jilin University conceived (Org. Lett. 2012, 14, 2354) of an elegant assembly of highly functionalized quaternary centers, as illustrated by the conversion of 7 to 8. Antonio Rosales of the University of Granada and Ignacio Rodríguez-García of the University of Almería prepared (J. Org. Chem. 2012, 77, 4171) free radicals by reduction of an ozonide 9 in the presence of catalytic titanocene dichloride. In the absence of the acceptor 10, the dimer of the radical was obtained, presenting a simple alternative to the classic Kolbe coupling. Marc L. Snapper of Boston College found (Eur. J. Org. Chem. 2012, 2308) that the difficult ketone 12 could be methylenated following a modified Peterson protocol. Yoshito Kishi of Harvard University optimized (Org. Lett. 2012, 14, 86) the coupling of 15 with 16 to give 17. Masaharu Nakamura of Kyoto University devised (J. Org. Chem. 2012, 77, 1168) an iron catalyst for the coupling of 18 with 19. The specific preparation of trisubsituted alkenes is an ongoing challenge. Quanri Wang of Fudan University and Andreas Goeke of Givaudan Shanghai fragmented (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2012, 51, 5647) the ketone 21 by exposure to 22 to give the macrolide 23 with high stereocontrol.

The synthesis of four new Anderson-Evans type cluster based solids was carried out from an aqueous solution containing sodium molybdate, chromium chloride, cupric chloride and pyrazole at room temperature: [{Cr3O(CH3COO)6(H2O)3}2{H7CrMo6O24}]·24H2O, 1; [{Cu2(ox)(pz)4}{H7CrMo6O24}]·11H2O, 3; [{Cu(pz)2(H2O)2}{Cu2(ox)(pz)4}{H5CrMo6O24}]·8H2O, 4; and [{Cu(pz)3Cl}{Cu2(ox)(pz)4}{H6CrMo6O24}]·8H2O, 5. In 1, the discrete Anderson-Evans cluster aggregates with trimeric chromium acetate cationic complex through supramolecular interactions. In 3–5, the Anderson-Evans cluster is covalently linked into a 1D chain through oxalate bridged copper pyrazole units. In 3, the chains are further stabilized by water oligomers. In 4 and 5, the chains are covalently linked into 2D sheets by different copper pyrazole complexes. The oxalate molecules in 3–5 are probably generated in situ in the reaction medium, through a reductive coupling of dissolved carbon dioxide assisted by copper pyrazole units.

The selective reductive coupling of vinyl arenes and ketones represents a versatile approach for the rapid construction of enantiomerically enriched tertiary alcohols. Herein, we demonstrate a CuH-catalyzed regiodivergent coupling of vinyl arenes and ketones, in which the selectivity is controlled by the ancillary ligand. This approach leverages an in situ generated benzyl- or dearomatized allyl-Cu intermediate, yielding either the dearomatized or exocyclic addition products, respectively. The method exhibits excellent regio-, diastereo- and enantioselectivity, and tolerates a range of common functional groups and heterocycles. Computational studies suggest that the regio- and enantioselectivity are controlled by the ancillary ligand, while the diastereoselectivity is enforced by steric interactions between the alkyl-Cu intermediate and ketone substrates in a six-membered cyclic transition state.
