RESUMO
Aerobic oxidative cross-coupling represents one of the most straightforward and atom-economic methods for construction of C-C and C-X (X=N, O, S, or P) bonds using air as a sustainable external oxidant. The oxidative coupling of C-H bonds in heterocyclic compounds can effectively increase their molecular complexity by introducing new functional groups through C-H bond activation, or by formation of new heterocyclic structures through cascade construction of two or more sequential chemical bonds. This is very useful as it can increase the potential applications of these structures in natural products, pharmaceuticals, agricultural chemicals, and functional materials. This is a representative overview of recent progress since 2010 on green oxidative coupling reactions of C-H bond using O2 or air as internal oxidant focus on Heterocycles. It aims to provide a platform for expanding the scope and utility of air as green oxidant, together with a brief discussion on research into the mechanisms behind it.
RESUMO
Direct oxidative coupling of inert C(sp3 )-H bond has been a great challenge. Herein, an environmentally friendly aerobic oxidative coupling of α-methyl substituted N-heteroarenes with indoles is reported. A variety of diheteroaryl ketones were prepared in good yields (up to 72 %). This protocol features simple operation and broad substrates scope (26 examples). Significantly, a plausible mechanism about catalytic cycle was proposed, and two key intermediates were confirmed by high resolution mass spectrometry.

A metal-free inactive C(sp3)-H bond functionalization of thioethers with styrenes using TBHP as an initiator and DBU as a base has been developed. This transformation has broken through the low activity of thioethers and realized moderate yields. Herein extended experiments were conducted to confirm the radical relay process, reaction energy and intermediate transformations.
RESUMO
Since carboxylic acid derivatives are commercially available, nontoxic, cheap, and normally stable to air and moisture, carboxylic acid derivatives are ideal reactants for synthetic strategy. In recent years, decarboxylative oxidative coupling reactions, which normally involve direct C-H bond activation, have attracted more and more interest from the synthetic community. Compared with conventional methods, this strategy is more environmentally friendly and step-economic. This review mainly focuses on recent advances of the decarboxylative oxidative coupling reaction.

The synthesis of bioactive amides has been the pursuit of chemists. Herein secondary amides incorporated with an aldehyde group were first generated using aldehydes and secondary amines. Various (hetero)aryl aldehydes and even aliphatic aldehydes (>40 examples) were converted into the desired products in moderate to excellent yields (up to 89%). A plausible mechanism involving a Cu(I/II/III) catalytic cycle combined with radical rearrangement was proposed and confirmed with four key intermediates detected by high-resolution mass spectrometry.
RESUMO
A novel intermolecular [4 + 3] cycloaddition method to construct 1,4-dioxide seven-membered oxacycles was developed. This one-step method was carried out in the presence of catalytic amount of (C(2)H(5))(2)OBF(3) under mild conditions. Seven-membered oxacycles and some natural compounds could be easily synthesized via this protocol. Control experiments were carried out and possible mechanism for the reaction was proposed. Asymmetric reactions were proceeded and 3e was obtained with moderate ee value.

Rare-earth catalysis has become a hot topic in the field of catalytic organic reaction. Chain ethers mostly have lower reactivity and lower boiling points which limited their reaction scope. Herein, we found a rare-earth Y(OTf)3 can catalyze the coupling reaction of ethers especially chain ethers and thioethers with azaarenes. This protocol features simple operations, a broad substrate scope (31 examples), moderate to good yields (up to 85%), and atom economy.
RESUMO
A novel palladium-catalyzed intermolecular aminopalladation/C-H activation method for selectively synthesizing (E)-(2-oxindolin-3-ylidene)phthalimides has been developed. In the presence of Pd(OAc)2 and PhI(OAc)2, alkynes were difunctionalized with a phthalimide and an arene sp2 C-H bond to selectively synthesize (E)-(2-oxoindolin-3-ylidene)phthalimides, which products are of great potential pharmaceutical value products in many major therapeutic areas, such as oncology, inflammation, neurology, immunology, and endocrinology. To the best of our knowledge, the reaction serves as the first example of intermolecular aminopalladation/C-H activation reactions of alkynes.

Flame atomic absorption spectrometry with air-acetylene flame was used for the determination of inorganic metal elements in different parts ( flower, leaf, stem and root) of Sonchus oleraceus L. The contents of Ca, Mg, K, Na, Fe, Mn, Cu, Zn, Cr, Co, Ni, Pb and Cd in the flower, leaf, stem and root of Sonchus oleraceus L were compared. The order from high to low of the additive weight (microg x g(-1)) for the 13 kinds of metal elements is as follows: leaf (77 213.72) > flower (47 927.15) > stem(42 280.99) > root (28 131.18). From the experimental results it was found that there were considerable differences in the contents of the metal elements in different parts, and there were richer contents of Fe, Zn, Mn and Cu in root and flower, which are necessary to human health, than in other parts.

The first example of a metal-free unactivated C(sp3)-H bond functionalization of alkyl nitriles with terminal vinylarenes to provide γ-ketonitrile derivatives is described. This protocol features simple operations, a broad substrate scope, and atom and step economy. In addition, Cu-catalyzed C(sp3)-H bond functionalization of azodiisobutyronitrile (AIBN) and analogues with terminal vinylarenes to generate γ-ketonitriles was also studied. A preliminary free-radical pathway was confirmed by capturing an alkyl radical, and a conjugate system was found that can stabilize radical intermediates and be in favor of this transformation. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations also provide important evidence of the free-radical pathway.
RESUMO
A controlled new oxidant sulfate radical anion (SO4(·-)) was found and it can be easily prepared by mixing Na2S2O4 and TBHP with stirring. In this new metal-free oxidation system (Na2S2O4/TBHP), SO4(·-) can be used as a controllable oxidant to oxidize various aromatic alcohols to the corresponding aldehydes in good yields without any acid formation at room temperature. SO4(·-) was determined by a DMPO (5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline-N-oxide) spin-trapping EPR method at room temperature on a Bruker E500 spectrometer and the results suggested that SO4(·-) was generated in this transformation.

A novel and convenient copper (II) bromide and 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.1]undec-7-ene (DBU) or 1,10-phenanthroline catalysis protocol for the construction of α-alkyl-ß-keto sulfones via C(sp(3))-H bond functionalization followed by C(sp(3))-S bond formation between aryl ketones and sodium sulfinates at room temperature has been developed. This method is applicable to a wide range of aryl ketones and sodium sulfinates. The electronic effects of aryl ketones and ligands effects of the copper salts are crucial for this transformation. Typically, substituted aryl ketones with electron-withdrawing group do not need any ligand to give a good to excellent yield, while substituted aryl ketones with electron-donating group and electron-rich heteroaromatic ketones offer a good to excellent yield only under the nitrogen-based ligands. The practical value of this transformation highlights the efficient and robust one-pot synthesis of α-alkyl-ß-keto sulfones.
RESUMO
A novel copper/manganese cocatalyzed direct oxidative coupling of terminal vinylarenes with ketones via C(sp(3))-H bond functionalization following C-C bond formation has been developed using tert-butyl hydroperoxide as the radical initiator. Various ketones underwent a free-radical addition of terminal vinylarenes to give the corresponding 1,4-dicarbonyl products with excellent regioselectivity and efficiency through one step. A possible reaction mechanism has been proposed.
RESUMO
Alcohols and alkenes are the most abundant and commonly used organic building blocks in the large-scale chemical synthesis. Herein, this is the first time to report a novel and operationally simple coupling reaction of vinylarenes and aliphatic alcohols catalyzed by manganese in the presence of TBHP (tert-butyl hydroperoxide). This coupling reaction provides the oxyalkylated products of vinylarenes with good regioselectivity and accomplishes with the principles of step-economies. A possible reaction mechanism has also been proposed.
