RESUMO
An iron-catalyzed asymmetric oxidative homo-coupling of 2-naphthols for the synthesis of 1,1'-Bi-2-naphthol (BINOL) derivatives is reported. The coupling reaction provides enantioenriched BINOLs in good yields (up to 99%) and moderate enantioselectivities (up to 81:19 er) using an iron-complex generated in situ from Fe(ClO4)2 and a bisquinolyldiamine ligand [(1R,2R)-N1,N2-di(quinolin-8-yl)cyclohexane-1,2-diamine, L1]. A number of ligands (L2-L8) and the analogs of L1, with various substituents and chiral backbones, were synthesized and examined in the oxidative coupling reactions.

A copper-catalyzed annulation of alkyne-tethered enaminones for the synthesis of 2,3-ring fused pyrroles is reported. The 5-exo-dig cyclization/olefin migration reaction delivers the multisubstituted pyrroles in 59-99% yields with 16 examples. This strategy features easily available starting materials, mild reaction conditions, and a cheap ligand-free copper catalyst. The atom-economic transformation provides a simple access to a variety of synthetic useful pyrroles and their derivatives.
RESUMO
Herein we describe a general, mild and scalable method for deuterium incorporation by potassium methoxide/hexamethyldisilane-mediated dehalogenation of arylhalides. With CD3CN as a deuterium source, a wide array of heteroarenes prevalent in pharmaceuticals and bearing diverse functional groups are labeled with excellent deuterium incorporation (>60 examples). The ipso-selectivity of this method provides precise access to libraries of deuterated indoles and quinolines. The synthetic utility of our method has been demonstrated by the incorporation of deuterium into complex natural and drug-like compounds.
