A photoredox activation mode of formate salts for carboxylation was developed. Using a formate salt as the reductant, carbonyl source, and hydrogen atom transfer reagent, a wide range of alkenes can be converted into acid products via a carboxyl group tra

A generalized, simple and efficient transfer hydrogenation of unsaturated bonds has been developed using HBPin and various proton reagents as hydrogen sources. The substrates, including alkenes, alkynes, aromatic heterocycles, aldehydes, ketones, imines, azo, nitro, epoxy and nitrile compounds, are all applied to this catalytic system. Various groups, which cannot survive under the Pd/C/H2 combination, are tolerated. The activity of the reactants was studied and the trends are as follows: styrene'diphenylmethanimine'benzaldehyde'azobenzene'nitrobenzene'quinoline'acetophenone'benzonitrile. Substrates bearing two or more different unsaturated bonds were also investigated and transfer hydrogenation occurred with excellent chemoselectivity. Nano-palladium catalyst in situ generated from Pd(OAc)2 and HBPin extremely improved the TH efficiency. Furthermore, chemoselective anti-Markovnikov hydrodeuteration of terminal aromatic olefins was achieved using D2O and HBPin via in situ HD generation and discrimination. (Figure presented.).

A C2-symmetric chiral phosphine catalyst, NUSIOC-Phos, which can be easily derived from cyclohexyl-fused spirobiindane, was introduced. A highly enantioselective domino process involving pyrrolidine-2,3-diones and γ-substituted allenoates catalyzed by NUSIOC-Phos has been disclosed. Diastereospecific tricyclic γ-lactams containing five contiguous stereogenic centers were obtained in high yields and with nearly perfect enantioselectivities. A kinetic resolution process of racemic γ-substituted allenoates was developed for the generation of optically enriched chiral allenoates.
