RESUMEN
A novel type of chiral redox disulfonate iron complex for asymmetric catalysis is reported. The [Fe((Ra)-BINSate)]+ (BINSate = 1,1'-binaphthalene-2,2'-disulfonate) complex effectively promotes the enantioselective oxidative cross-coupling between 2-naphthols (1) and 2-aminonaphthalene derivatives (2), affording optically enriched (Ra)-2-amino-2'-hydroxy-1,1'-binaphthyls (NOBINs) with exceptional yields and enantioselective ratios (up to 99% yield and 96:4 er). The [Fe((Ra)-BINSate)]+ catalyst was designed as a chiral version of FeCl3 with multicoordination sites available for binding the two coupling partners 1 and 2 as well as the oxidant. Our structure-selectivity and activity study, which covered most of the important positions in the NOBIN scaffold, revealed the effect of different substitution patterns on the coupling efficiency and stereoselectivity.

In this study, a novel iron-catalyzed oxidative cross-coupling reaction between phenols and 3-alkyloxindole derivatives is reported. The efficient method, which is based on the FeCl3 catalyst and the t-BuOOt-Bu oxidant in 1,2-dichloroethane at 70 °C, affords 3-alkyl-3-(hydroxyaryl)oxindole compounds with a high degree of selectivity. The generality of the conditions was proven by reacting various substituted phenols, naphthols, and tyrosine derivatives with 3-alkyloxindoles. To apply the chemistry for the conjugation of tyrosine-containing short peptides with oxindolylalanine (Oia) derivatives, the reaction conditions were modified [Fe(O2CCF3)3 catalyst, t-BuOOt-Bu, HFIP, 70 °C], and amino acids with acid-stable N-protecting groups were used.

A selectivity-driven catalyst design approach was adopted to address chemoselectivity issues in the oxidative coupling of phenols. This approach was utilized for developing a Co(II)[salen]-catalyzed aerobic oxidative cross-coupling of phenols in a recyclable 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoropropan-2-ol (HFIP) solvent. The waste-free conditions offer a sustainable entry to nonsymmetric biphenols via a mechanistic scheme that involves coupling of a liberated phenoxyl radical with a ligated 2-naphthoxyl radical.
RESUMEN
A highly regioselective C-H benzoxylation of tertiary benzamides with aromatic acids by weak O-amide coordination in the presence of [{RuCl2(p-cymene)}2], AgSbF6, and (NH4)2S2O8 in 1,2-dichloroethane at 100 °C for 24 h to afford ortho-benzoxylated tertiary benzamides is described. Selectively, ortho-benzoxylated cyclic benzamides were converted into ortho-benzoxylated benzaldehydes by using Cp2ZrHCl at room temperature. Subsequently, substituted salicylic acids were prepared by deprotection of the ester and amide groups of ortho-benzoxylated cyclic benzamides.
RESUMEN
A regioselective synthesis of unsymmetrical and symmetrical biphenols and binaphthols via oxidative coupling of phenols or naphthols in the presence of K2S2O8 in CF3COOH under ambient conditions is described. Interestingly, the 1 : 1 ratio of H2O and CH3CN solvent mixtures at 80 °C instead of CF3COOH provided substituted unsymmetrical quinones. A gram-scale synthesis of biphenols and binaphthols was demonstrated.
RESUMEN
An efficient synthesis of unsymmetrical biphenols via the oxidative cross-coupling of two different phenols in the presence of K2S2O8 and Bu4N(+)·HSO3(-) (10 mol %) in CF3COOH at ambient conditions is described. 1:1 Cross-coupling of substituted phenols with naphthols and 1:2 cross-coupling of naphthols with phenol are also disclosed. By using Bu4N(+)·HSO3(-), the homocoupling of phenols or naphthols was controlled. In these reactions, the ortho C-H bond of two different phenols and the ortho and para C-H bond of phenols were coupled together.
RESUMEN
A regioselective synthesis of symmetrical and unsymmetrical benzopinacolones through aerobic dehydrogenative α-arylation at the tertiary sp(3) C-H bond of substituted 1,1-diphenylketones with aromatic and heteroaromatic compounds, in the presence of K2S2O8 in CF3COOH at room temperature, is described. The reaction is proposed to go via a carbocation intermediate, which could be generated directly from cleavage of the sp(3) C-H bond of 1,1-diphenylketone. Subsequent α-arylation was achieved at the methene sp(3) carbon atom of the substituted ketone. A variety of substituted aromatic and heteroaromatic compounds were compatible with this reaction. In addition, benzopinacolones were converted into sterically hindered, tetrasubstituted alkenes and polycyclic aromatic compounds.

Substituted benzyl ketones reacted with aromatics in the presence of K2S2O8 in CF3COOH at room temperature, yielding α-diaryl benzyl ketones through a carbon-carbon bond cleavage. In the reaction, two new carbon-carbon bonds were formed and one carbon-carbon bond was cleaved. It is very interesting that two different nucleophiles such as benzyl ketones and aromatics were coupled together without metal, which is unusual in organic synthesis.
