Readily available linear/branched aliphatic aldehydes including sugar derivatives were oxidatively decarbonylated into 1˙, 2˙ and 3˙ alkyl radicals for the alkylative arylation of terminal alkynes via dual C–H bond functionalization.

Decarbonylation at 60–80 °C! Readily available linear/branched aliphatic aldehydes were decarbonylated into 1°, 2° and 3° alkyl radicals at low temperature for cascade radical insertion and radical–radical coupling to construct C(sp3)–C(sp3) and C(sp3)–O bonds.

1. Two different reactions have been confused under the name ‘plasmal’. One, the true plasmal reaction, is due, as its discoverer Feulgen showed, to the liberation of higher aliphatic aldehydes from acetalphosphatides, the reaction taking place very rapidly under the influence of mercuric chloride, the products being coloured deeply with Schiff's reagent. The other reaction is due to the oxidation, by atmospheric oxygen, of double bonds in unsaturated fatty acid radicles. It is affected only slightly, if at all, by mercuric chloride, and increases with exposure of sections or pieces of tissue to atmospheric oxygen. 2. There is no completely satisfactory method for the histochemical demonstration of plasmal. Sections of fresh tissues are not usually suitable for cytological work, and fixation causes a reduction in intensity of the reaction. Also, the permissible fixatives are not all of the highest quality. Short fixation in a formaldehyde fixative (e.g. formal-calcium) followed by careful washing is probably the best, but the results should be compared with those obtained by the direct reaction of small pieces of fresh tissue. A suitable technique is described.

For the convenient introduction of simple linear/branched alkyl groups into biologically important azaspirocyclohexadienones, a practical Fe-catalyzed decarbonylative cascade spiro-cyclization of N-aryl cinnamamides with aliphatic aldehydes to provide alkylated 1-azaspiro-cyclohexadienones was developed. Aliphatic aldehydes were oxidative decarbonylated into primary, secondary and tertiary alkyl radicals conveniently and allows for the subsequent cascade construction of dual C(sp3)-C(sp3) and C=O bonds via radical addition, spirocyclization and oxidation sequence.

<p>α-substituted ketones are important chemical targets as synthetic intermediates as well as functionalities in in natural products and pharmaceuticals. We report the sp<sup>3</sup> C-H α-acetylation of sp<sup>3</sup> C-H substrates R-H with arylmethyl ketones ArC(O)Me to provide α-alkylated ketones ArC(O)CH<sub>2</sub>R at RT with <sup>t</sup>BuOO<sup>t</sup>Bu as oxidant via copper(I) β-diketiminato catalysts. Proceeding via alkyl radicals R•, this method enables α-substitution with bulky substituents without competing elimination that occurs in more traditional alkylation reactions between enolates and alkyl electrophiles. DFT studies suggest the intermediacy of copper(II) enolates [Cu<sup>II</sup>](CH<sub>2</sub>C(O)Ar) that capture alkyl radicals R• to give R-CH<sub>2</sub>C(O)Ar under competing dimerization of the copper(II) enolate to give the 1,4-diketone ArC(O)CH<sub>2</sub>CH<sub>2</sub>C(O)Ar.</p>
