Copper-catalyzed trichloromethylative carbonylation of ethylene

Abstract

A copper-catalyzed trichloromethylative carbonylation of ethylene under visible light irradiation by employing inexpensive and readily available CCl4 and CO as C1 sources for trichloromethyl and carbonyl has been developed.

Four-component regio-divergent carbonylative condensations for the sustainable syntheses of acylhydrazones

“…This may be realized via alkene carbonylation with hydrazones using CO building blocks to provide acylhydrazones without the formation of any by-products. 27–37 However, few catalytic systems for use in the hydroaminocarbonylation of alkenes, 38–43 in addition to the carbonylation of hydrazines, have been reported. Hydrazines bearing three free, highly active protons are some of the most valuable backbones and economical synthons.…”
