Azzena,Melloni,Fenude,Fina,Marchetti,Sechi
, p. 591 - 599 (1994)
The reductive cleavage of diarylmethyl methyl ethers with Li metal in THF led to quantitative formation of the corresponding diarylmethyl anions. Quenching with electrophiles afforded substituted diarylmethanes in good to excellent yields.

Irradiation (λ>430 nm) of the cation obtained by protonation of 1,1-di-p-anisylethylene (1) in the presence of excess 1 in benzene-trifluoroacetic acid solution results in electron transfer from the nautral ethylene and the formation of the corresponding

Alper, Howard,Heveling, Josef
, p. 365 - 366 (1983)
Diarylethylenes and 9,9'-bifluorenylidene are hydrogenated, in excellent yields, on treatment with cobalt carbonyl or bis(tri-n-butylphosphine)dicobalt hexacarbonyl, benzene, 48-50percent aqueous tetrafluoroboric acid, and sodium 4-dodecylbenzenesulphonate.
Direct electrochemical reduction of 4,4-(2,2,2-trichloroethane-1,1-diyl)bis(methoxybenzene) (methoxychlor) at carbon and silver cathodes in dimethylformamide
McGuire, Caitlyn M.,Peters, Dennis G.
, p. G44 - G49 (2016)
Cyclic voltammetry and controlled-potential (bulk) electrolysis have been employed to investigate the electrochemical reduction of 4,4-(2,2,2-trichloroethane-1,1-diyl)bis(methoxybenzene), commonly known as the pesticide methoxychlor, at glassy carbon and silver cathodes in dimethylformamide (DMF) containing 0.050 M tetra-n-butylammonium tetrafluoroborate (TBABF4). Reduction of methoxychlor at both glassy carbon and silver shows four voltammetric peaks, the first three of which are associated with cleavage of carbon–chlorine bonds; the fourth peak is assigned to reduction of 4,4-(ethene-1,1-diyl)bis(methoxybenzene). Bulk electrolyses of methoxychlor at reticulated vitreous carbon and silver mesh cathodes at potentials corresponding to each of the first three voltammetric peaks were conducted; coulometric n values and product distributions (determined by means of GC and GC–MS techniques) depend on potential. In particular, two completely dechlorinated products, namely 4,4-(ethane-1,1-diyl)bis(methoxybenzene) and 4,4-(ethene-1,1-diyl)bis(methoxybenzene) have been identified and quantitated. A mechanistic scheme is proposed to account for the formation of the various products.

A site-specific oxidation of (sp3)C-C(sp3) and (sp3)C-H bonds in aryl alkanes by the use of NaNO2/HCl was explored. The method is chemical-oxidant-free, transition-metal-free, uses water as the solvent, and proceeds under mild conditions, making it valuable and attractive to synthetic organic chemistry.
Indium Tribromide-Catalysed Transfer-Hydrogenation: Expanding the Scope of the Hydrogenation and of the Regiodivergent DH or HD Addition to Alkenes

The transfer-hydrogenation as well as the regioselective and regiodivergent addition of H?D from regiospecific deuterated dihydroaromatic compounds to a variety of 1,1-di- and trisubstituted alkenes was realised with InBr3 in dichloro(m)ethane. In comparison with the previously reported BF3?Et2O-catalysed process, electron-deficient aryl-substituents can be applied reliably and thereby several restrictions could be lifted, and new types of substrates could be transformed successfully in hydrodeuterogenation as well as deuterohydrogenation transfer-hydrogenation reactions.

The regioselective and regiodivergent addition of H-D to a variety of 1,1-diarylalkenes was realized utilizing selectively deuterated dihydroaromatic compounds, which were generated by cobalt catalysis. The reaction was initiated by catalytic amounts of B

As a carbon-free and sustainable fuel, ammonia serves as high-energy-density hydrogen-storage material. It is important to develop new reactions able to utilize ammonia as a hydrogen source directly. Herein, we report an electrochemical hydrogenation of alkenes, alkynes, and ketones using ammonia as the hydrogen source and carbon electrodes. A variety of heterocycles and functional groups, including for example sulfide, benzyl, benzyl carbamate, and allyl carbamate were well tolerated. Fast stepwise electron transfer and proton transfer processes were proposed to account for the transformation.
Catalytic protodeboronation of pinacol boronic esters: Formal anti-Markovnikov hydromethylation of alkenes

Pinacol boronic esters are highly valuable building blocks in organic synthesis. In contrast to the many protocols available on the functionalizing deboronation of alkyl boronic esters, protodeboronation is not well developed. Herein we report catalytic protodeboronation of 1°, 2° and 3° alkyl boronic esters utilizing a radical approach. Paired with a Matteson-CH2-homologation, our protocol allows for formal anti-Markovnikov alkene hydromethylation, a valuable but unknown transformation. The hydromethylation sequence was applied to methoxy protected (-)-Δ8-THC and cholesterol. The protodeboronation was further used in the formal total synthesis of δ-(R)-coniceine and indolizidine 209B.
