RESUMEN
CO2-assisted and Ni-catalyzed direct reductive allylation of aldehydes utilizing allylic alcohols as allylic precursor has been reported. Various homoallyl alcohols could be synthesized in excellent yield with enhanced regioselectivity and stereoselectivity for alkyl- and aryl-substituted aldehydes under mild conditions. For different substrates, proper collocation of the catalytic precursor and ligand is crucial. Preliminary mechanistic studies supported the reaction pathway through a sequential allyl hydrocarbonate formation/allylnickelation/coordination insertion process by the Ni(I)/Ni(III) catalytic cycle, which has been proven by cyclic voltammetry analysis.
RESUMEN
CO2-promoted and Ni-catalyzed direct hydroallylation of terminal alkynes with allylic alcohols has been achieved. Various 1,4-dienes could be synthesized in good yield with excellent Markovnikov selectivity for alkyl- and aryl-substituted terminal alkynes under mild reaction conditions. A gram-scale reaction gives considerable yield. Preliminary mechanistic studies support the reaction pathway through sequential carboxylation/allylnickelation/lithium bicarbonate nickelation/transmetalation in the hydroallylation of alkynes with allylic alcohols in the presence of CO2.
RESUMEN
Cheap and available formate can be seen formally as a carbon dioxide radical anion (CO2â¢-) combined with a hydrogen atom, where the CO2â¢- is not only a highly active radical but also a very powerful reductant. In this paper, we successfully realized a visible-light-driven carboxylation of benzyl bromides with carbon dioxide to prepare high-value arylacetic acids using potassium formate as a terminal reductant. This reaction is characterized by mild reaction conditions and a wide range of substrates. Moreover, under nitrogen atmosphere, the reaction can also achieve the carboxylation of benzyl bromides utilizing an excess of potassium formate. Mechanistic experiments indicate this carboxylation proceeded through CO2â¢-, which was generated from the oxidation of 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane with excited photosensitizer Ir(ppy)2(dtbbpy)PF6 in the presence of the potassium formate.
RESUMEN
Photoredox-catalyzed three-component fluorodifluoroacetylation of aromatic alkenes is reported, which features a wide substrate scope and functional group tolerance. An advantage of the reaction is the use of a nucleophilic fluoride source and a general difluoroacetylation reagent for the fluorodifluoroacetylation of alkenes.

Cobalt-catalyzed regioselective three-component arylcarboxylation of acrylate with aryl bromides and carbon dioxide has been developed. The reaction is carried out by using cobalt chloride as a precatalyst and zinc powder as a reducing reagent under CO2 (1â atm) at 40 °C. A range of aryl bromides are used for this reaction, leading to a series of valuable carboxylic acids with high regioselectivity and functional-group compatibility. Mechanistic experiments and DFT calculations indicate that this arylcarboxylation reaction involves the reaction of CO2 with a cobalt enolate intermediate to form the C-C bond.
RESUMEN
The MeOTf/KI-catalyzed synthesis of 2-arylnaphthalene derivatives from aryl ethylene oxides in alcohol under ambient conditions is described. The present protocol has a higher atom efficiency and wider substrate applicability with excellent yields. The reaction proceeded using the aryl ethylene oxides to give 2-arylnaphthalenes either in homo-coupling or in cross-coupling. The reaction could also be carried out at the gram scale in minutes.
RESUMEN
Intermolecular carbon-carbon bond formation between acylsilanes and carbon dioxide (CO2) was achieved by photoirradiation under catalyst-free conditions. In this reaction, siloxycarbenes generated by photoisomerization of the acylsilanes added to the CâO bond of CO2 to give α-ketocarboxylates, which underwent hydrolysis to afford α-ketocarboxylic derivatives in good yields. Control experiments suggest that the generated siloxycarbene is likely to be from the singlet state (S1) of the acylsilane and the addition to CO2 is not in a concerted manner.
RESUMEN
Carbon dioxide is a green and sustainable one-carbon source, which could be utilized in the production of various fine chemicals. In recent studies, the light-mediated carboxylation employing CO2 has received considerable attention. The photocarboxylation of substrates with CO2 to build novel C-C bonds is introduced in this Minireview. The article is arranged based on the light-driven reactive intermediates, including CO2 radical anion, substrate radical anions, carbanions, and M-C species. Most of the cases are under the topic of photoredox catalysis, with single electron transfer as the main driving force. Some non-catalytic examples are also discussed to provide more mechanistic insights.

Controlled experiment results indicate that 18-crown-6 plays a critical role in six-electron reduction of carbon dioxide.
RESUMEN
Bidentate pyrrolyl ligands, 2-(t-butyliminomethyl)pyrrole and 2-(t-butylaminomethyl)pyrrole, reacted with KH to give complexes [C4H3N(2-CH[double bond, length as m-dash]NtBu)K(THF)]n (1) and [C4H3N(2-CH2NHtBu)K]n (2), respectively. Each has been characterized by C, H and N microanalysis, NMR spectroscopy, and single crystal X-ray structural analysis. The X-ray structure of complex 1 (n≥ 1) demonstrated that it exists as a 1D zig-zag coordination polymer in the solid state. Conversely, the structure of complex 2 (n≥ 1) showed that it is a 2D supramolecular network. They proved to be an effective class of catalysts for cyclotrimerization of isocyanate in excellent yield under mild conditions.
RESUMEN
Carbon dioxide (CO2) has emerged as a sustainable, feasible, abundant one-carbon synthon and displays great potential in the synthesis of heterocycles such as lactones, lactams, and 2-oxazolidinones, which are privileged motifs in pharmaceutical chemistry demonstrating bioactivities. Although the fixation of CO2 is restricted due to its thermodynamic stability and kinetic inertness, multiple breakthroughs have been realized in annulation chemistry. This review concentrates on the advances made in the last five years in CO2-incorporated cyclization triggered by N-, O-, and C-nucleophiles. Three transformation modes of CO2 including carboxylative cyclization, carbonylative cyclization, and reductive cyclization have been summarized. Moreover, typical mechanisms and significant applications of these reactions are also described.
RESUMEN
The development of metal-free organic reactions is one of the hotspots in the synthesis of cyclic compounds. ROTf (alkyl trifluoromethanesulfonates), due to their good electrophilicity, are powerful alkylating reagents at heteroatoms such as nitrogen, oxygen, sulfur and phosphorus to induce an electrophilic centre for carbon-carbon or carbon-heteroatom bond formation. Inspired by this chemistry, a variety of research concentrating on heterocycles synthesis has been carried out. In this review, we mainly summarize the ROTf-induced annulation of heteroatom reagents such as nitriles, carbodiimides, azobenzenes, isothiocyanates, aldehydes, isocyanates and phosphaalkene with themselves or alkynes to afford cyclic compounds.
