A transition-metal-free method for the alkylation of gem-diborylalkanes with α,β-unsaturated ketones has been developed. It is demonstrated that the α-boryl radicals can be generated efficiently from gem-diborylalkanes with the aid of catechol and oxidants. The α-boryl radicals formed through such process can be engaged in conjugate addition reaction with α,β-unsaturated ketones. This transformation is a straightforward method for the synthesis of γ-borylketones.

A visible light photoredox-promoted and nitrogen radical catalyzed [3 + 2] cyclization of vinylcyclopropanes and N-tosyl vinylaziridines with alkenes is developed. Key to the success of this process is the use of the readily tunable hydrazone as a nitrogen radical catalyst. Preliminary mechanism studies suggest that the photogenerated nitrogen radical undergoes reversible radical addition to the vinylcyclopropanes and N-tosyl vinylaziridines to enable their ring-opening C-C and C-N bond cleavage and ensuing cyclization with alkenes.

A copper-catalyzed asymmetric hydrosilylation of β-nitroethyl aryl ketones has been disclosed, and the corresponding chiral alcohols could be obtained in high yields (up to 99% yield) and excellent enantioselectivities (up to 96% ee). Moreover, the reaction worked well on a gram scale with 0.3 mol % of ligand loading, indicating that our protocol has potential applications in the synthesis of important pharmaceuticals such as Tranylcypromine and Ticagrelor.
