Abstract:
A heterogeneous redox-neutral palladium-catalytic platform was reported for the preparation of deuterated (hetero) arenes from (hetero) arenes mediated by regioselective C(sp2)-H thianthrenation utilizing commercially available and recyclable Pd/C catalyst. A wide range of deuterated compounds could be obtained in high yields with excellent levels of deuterium incorporation under these simple heterogeneous catalytic conditions with the requirement of stable and easily handled DCOONa as a deuterium source. The late-stage deuteration of pharmaceuticals and bioactive molecules was also achieved by this approach.

02:17Reduction of Alkenes: Asymmetric Catalytic Hydrogenation
The metal catalyst used can be either heterogeneous or homogeneous. When hydrogenation of an alkene generates a chiral center, a pair of enantiomeric products is expected to form. However, an enantiomeric excess of one of the products can be facilitated using an enantioselective reaction or an...

The hydrohalogenation of an unsymmetrical alkene can yield two haloalkane products, depending on which vinylic carbon takes up the halogen. However, one product usually predominates, where hydrogen adds to the vinylic carbon bearing the...
02:13Reduction of Alkenes: Catalytic Hydrogenation
Metals like palladium, platinum, and nickel are commonly used in their solid forms — fine powder on an inert surface. As these catalysts remain insoluble in the reaction mixture, they are referred to as heterogeneous catalysts.

02:36Regioselectivity and Stereochemistry of Hydroboration
Hydroboration proceeds in a concerted fashion with the attack of borane on the π bond, giving a cyclic four-centered transition state. The –BH2 group is bonded to the less substituted carbon and –H to the more substituted carbon. The concerted nature requires the simultaneous addition of –H and –BH2 across the same face of the alkene giving syn...
