Organic transformations mediated by photoredox catalysis have been at the forefront of reaction discovery. Recently, it has been demonstrated that binuclear Au(I) bisphosphine complexes, such as [Au2(μ-dppm)2]X2, are capable of mediating electron transfer to nonactivated bromoalkanes for the generation of a variety of alkyl radicals. The transfer reactions of bromine, derived from nonactivated bromoalkanes, are largely unknown. Therefore, we propose that unique metal-based mechanistic pathways are at play, as this binuclear gold catalyst has been known to produce Au(III) Lewis acid intermediates. The scope and proposed mechanistic overview for the formal bromine atom transfer reaction of nonactivated bromoalkanes mediated by photoredox Au(I) catalysis is presented. The methodology presented afforded good yields and a broad scope which include examples using bromoalkanes and iodoarenes.

Starting from diverse alkene-tethered aryl iodides and O-benzoyl-hydroxylamines, the enantioselective reductive cross-electrophilic 1,2-carboamination of unactivated alkenes was achieved using a chiral pyrox/nickel complex as the catalyst. This mild, modular, and practical protocol provides rapid access to a variety of β-chiral amines with an enantioenriched aryl-substituted quaternary carbon center in good yields and with excellent enantioselectivities. This process reveals a complementary regioselectivity when compared to Pd and Cu catalysis.

A concurrent tandem catalytic (CTC) methodology has been developed for the amidation of aryl chlorides where the aryl chloride is first converted to an aryl iodide via halogen exchange and the aryl iodide is subsequently transformed into the aryl amide. A variety of aryl chlorides were converted to aryl amides in up to 85% isolated yield using 20 mol % CuI, 60 mol % N,N′-cyclohexane-1,2-diamine, 2.2 equiv of K2CO3, and 1.05-1.5 equiv of amide in acetonitrile at 200 °C after 0.75-1 h. The same copper/ligand system served as multifunctional catalyst for both steps of the concurrent catalytic process with iodide present in substoichiometric amounts. Mechanistic studies were consistent with CTC amidation occurring via a nonradical mechanism. Kinetic modeling was conducted to investigate the effect of competitive direct amidation of an aryl chloride or aryl bromide on the formation of product over time during a CTC amidation reaction.
