We have studied for a long time the reaction of quinone acetal type compounds, such as quinone monoacetals, quinone O,S-acetals, and iminoquinone monoacetals, and have reported the regioselective introduction of various nucleophiles. Quinone monoacetals show various types of reactivities toward nucleophiles due to their unique structures. In this study, we found that aromatic and alkene nucleophiles can be regioselectively introduced into the α-position of the carbonyl group on quinone monoacetals by specific activation of the acetal moiety. These reactions enabled the metal-free synthesis of highly functionalized aromatic compounds by the regioselective introduction of nucleophiles. In this account, we describe our recent studies of the coupling of quinone monoacetals.1 Introduction2 Regioselective Introduction of Aromatic Nucleophiles into α-Position of Carbonyl2.1 Biaryl Synthesis by Introduction of Aromatic Nucleophiles2.2 Synthesis of Terphenyls and Oligoarenes by Iterative Coupling2.3 Synthesis of Phenol Cross-Coupling Products3 [3+2] Coupling with Alkene Nucleophiles3.1 Development of Efficient [3+2] Coupling3.2 Improvement of Brønsted Acid Promotor4 Synthesis of α-Aryl Carbonyl Compounds Triggered by Silyl Transfer5 Utilization of o-Quinone Monoacetals6 Application to Iminoquinone Monoacetals7 Conclusion

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.

A mild, scalable iodine-mediated oxidative cross-coupling reaction of arylhydrazines and thiols for construction of thioethers (sulfides) in the absence of any transition metals or photocatalysts is disclosed. A variety of unsymmetrical diaryl sulfides with broad substrate scope both on thiols and hydrazines were synthesized in high yields in water at room temperature. Furthermore, to demonstrate the utility of the protocol, the above C–S bond formation was applied in the synthesis of the key structure of vortioxetine as an antidepressant drug. The gram-scale outcome also added to the potential utility of this protocol.

We show that the energetically-favorable coordination of aldehydes and ketones – but not esters – to nickel(0) during Suzuki-Miyaura reactions can lead either to exquisite selectivity and enhanced reactivity, or to the inhibition<br>of the reaction. Aryl halides where the C-X bond is connected to the same π-system as an aldehyde or ketone functional<br>group undergo unexpectedly rapid oxidative addition, and are selectively cross-coupled during inter- and intramolecular<br>competition reactions. When aldehydes and ketones are present elsewhere, such as in the form of exogenous additives,<br>the cross-coupling reaction is inhibited depending on how strongly the pendant carbonyl group can coordinate to nickel(0). This work advances our understanding of how common functional groups interact with nickel(0) catalysts, and presents synthetic chemists with a tool that can be used to achieve site-selectivity in functionalized molecules. <br>

This work describes the first Ni-catalyzed cross-electrophile coupling of alkylpyridinium salts, derived from the corresponding amines, with aryl iodide, bromoalkyne or bromoalkyl coupling partners. C(sp)-C(sp<sup>3</sup>), C(sp<sup>2</sup>)-C(sp<sup>3</sup>) and C(sp<sup>3</sup>)-C(sp<sup>3</sup>) bond formation was achieved to afford a variety of synthetically useful arenes, alkynes and alkanes in good yields from<b>2</b>-<b>33</b>. The advantages of the methodology are showcased in the two-step synthesis of the key lactonic moiety of (+)-Compactin and (+)-Mevinolin from commercially available starting materials. A one-pot procedure without isolation of alkylpyridinium tetrafluoroborate salt was also demonstrated to be successful. This work represents a new strategy for the cross-coupling reaction of two electrophiles, and also provides a complementary and highly valuable vista for the current methodologies of alkyl arene/alkyne/alkane synthesis.

When DBU is added, the cross-coupling reaction between alkyl halides (halogen = Cl, Br and I) and N-haloimides (halogen = Cl, Br) occurs, resulting in the formation of aminated products.
