    Manganese‐Catalyzed Carbonylative Annulations for Redox‐Neutral Late‐Stage Diversification

    No full text
    Abstract An inexpensive, nontoxic manganese catalyst enabled unprecedented redox‐neutral carbonylative annulations under ambient pressure. The manganese catalyst outperformed all other typically used base and precious‐metal catalysts. The outstanding versatility of the manganese catalysis manifold was reflected by ample substrate scope, setting the stage for effective late‐stage manipulations under racemization‐free conditions of a wealth of marketed drugs and natural products, including alkaloids, amino acids, steroids, and carbohydrates.Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft https://doi.org/10.13039/501100001659Alexander von Humboldt-Stiftung https://doi.org/10.13039/10000515

    Ruthenium(IV) Intermediates in C−H Activation/Annulation by Weak O ‐Coordination

    No full text
    Abstract Ruthenium(IV) complexes were identified as key intermediates of C−H/O−H activations by weak O ‐coordination. Thus, the annulations of sulfoxonium ylides by benzoic acids provided expedient access to diversely‐decorated isocoumarins with ample scope. Detailed experimental and computational studies provided strong support for a facile BIES‐C−H activation, along with cyclometalated ruthenium(IV) intermediates within a versatile ruthenium(II/IV) catalysis regime (BIES=base‐assisted internal electrophilic substitution).Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft https://doi.org/10.13039/501100001659Alexander von Humboldt-Stiftung https://doi.org/10.13039/100005156China Sponsorship Council https://doi.org/10.13039/50110000286

    Catalyst‐Guided C=Het Hydroarylations by Manganese‐Catalyzed Additive‐Free C−H Activation

    No full text
    Expedient hydroarylations of C=Het bonds (Het = heteroatom) were accomplished by user-friendly organometallic C-H activation in a positional-selective manner. The broadly applicable C-H functionalization platform enabled the step-economical transformation of aldehydes, ketones, and imines under additive-free reaction conditions. In contrast to palladium, rhodium, ruthenium, rhenium, iridium, nickel, and cobalt catalysis, solely manganese(I) complexes outcompeted the innate substrate control, clearly highlighting the unique power of manganese(I) C-H activation catalysis
