Herein, we conceptualized a transient mediator approach that has the capability of para-selective C-H functionalization of monosubstituted aromatics. This approach is enabled by in situ generation of a versatile sulfonium salt via highly electrophilic phenoxathiine or thianthrene dication intermediate which can be readily generated from its sulfoxide with trifluoromethanesulfonic anhydride. Preliminary mechanistic study implied that the remarkable para selectivity might be related to the incredible electrophilicity of thianthrene dication intermediate. The versatility of this approach was demonstrated via para-borylation of various monosubstituted simple aromatics combining the sulfonium salt formation with further photocatalyzed transformation.

Photoinduced decarboxylative radical reactions of benzoic acids with electron-deficient alkenes, diborane, and acetonitrile under organic photoredox catalysis conditions and mild heating afforded adducts, arylboronate esters, and the reduction product, respectively. The reaction is thought to involve single-electron transfer promoted the generation of aryl radicals via decarboxylation. A diverse range of benzoic acids were found to be suitable substrates for this photoreaction. Only our two-molecule organic photoredox system can work well for the direct photoinduced decarboxylation of benzoic acids.

Decarbonylative borylation of carboxylic acids is reported. Carbon electrophiles are generated directly after reagent-enabled decarbonylation of the in situ accessible sterically-hindered acyl derivative of a carboxylic acid under catalyst controlled conditions. The scope and the potential impact of this method are demonstrated in the selective borylation of a variety of aromatics (>50 examples). This strategy was used in the late-stage derivatization of pharmaceuticals and natural products. Computations reveal the mechanistic details of the unprecedented C?O bond activation of carboxylic acids. By circumventing the challenging decarboxylation, this strategy provides a general synthetic platform to access arylpalladium species for a wide array of bond formations from abundant carboxylic acids. The study shows a powerful combination of experiment and computation to predict decarbonylation selectivity.
