The nitrosonium ion (NO+) is a highly versatile nitration and nitrosation reagent, as well as a strong one-electron oxidant. Herein, we describe an environmentally benign and mild method for the in situ formation of NO+ from readily available inorganic nitrate salts, i.e. lithium nitrate, through a finely tuned interplay between formic acid and MeOH, which are used as the solvent system. This methodology was applied to the NO+-induced oxidative C–H activation of methoxy-substituted phenols, which are versatile lignin-derived aromatic feedstocks, to achieve C–C cross-coupling reactions with arenes. The regeneration of NO+ by atmospheric molecular oxygen enables substoichiometric use of the nitrate.

Electron-deficient olefin (EDO) ligands are known to promote a variety of nickel-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions, presumably by accelerating the reductive elimination step and preventing undesired β-hydride elimination. While there is a growing body of experimental and computational evidence elucidating the beneficial effects of EDO ligands, significant gaps remain in our understanding of the underlying coordination chemistry of the Ni–EDO species involved. In particular, most procedures rely on in situ assembly of the active catalyst, and there is a paucity of pre-ligated Ni-EDO precatalysts. Herein, we investigate the 16-electron, heteroleptic nickel complex, Ni(COD)(DMFU), and examine the performance of this complex as a precatalyst in 1,2-diarylation of alkenes.

The design of some novel di-(het)arylated-3H-pyrido[1′,2′:1,5]pyrazolo[4,3-d]pyrimidine derivatives is reported. The series was developed from 1-aminopyridinium iodide, which afforded the key intermediate bearing two thiomethyl and amide functions, each of them useful for palladium catalyzed cross coupling reactions by alkyl sulfur release and C-O activation, respectively. The two regioselective and successive cross-coupling reactions were first carried out in C-4 by in situ C-O activation and next in C-2 by a methylsulfur release. Process optimization furnished conditions leading to products in high yields. The scope and limitations of the methodologies were evaluated and the final compounds characterized.
