Herein, we describe a convenient general protocol for monofluoroalkenylation reactions of alkyl bromides involving cooperative visible-light photoredox catalysis and halogen abstraction. Mechanistic experiments showed that the products were generated by selective cross-coupling of aliphatic radicals with fluoroalkenyl radicals. Silyl radical-mediated halogen abstraction enabled the protocol to be used for the monofluoroalkenylation of a broad range of alkyl and heteroaryl halides. The protocol could be carried out on a gram scale and was applied to cholesterol, indicating its utility for late-stage monofluoroalkenylation reactions.

Catalytic enantioselection usually depends on differences in steric interactions between prochiral substrates and a chiral catalyst. We have discovered a carbene Si-H insertion in which the enantioselectivity depends primarily on the electronic characteristics of the carbene substrate, and the log(er) values are linearly related to Hammett parameters. A new class of chiral tetraphosphate dirhodium catalysts was developed; it shows excellent activity and enantioselectivity for the insertion of diarylcarbenes into the Si-H bond of silanes. Computational and mechanistic studies show how the electronic differences between the two aryls of the carbene lead to differences in energies of the diastereomeric transition states. This study provides a new strategy for asymmetric catalysis exploiting the electronic properties of the substrates.

In this study, a new C(sp3)-H monofluoroalkenylation reaction involving cooperative visible-light photoredox catalysis and hydrogen-atom-transfer catalysis to afford products generated by selective hydrogen abstraction and radical-radical cross-coupling was described. This mild, efficient reaction shows high regioselectivity for the α-carbon atoms of amines, ethers, and thioethers and thus allows the preparation of monofluoroalkenes bearing various substituents. The reaction was applied to two bioactive molecules, indicating its utility for late-stage monofluoroalkenylation of compounds with inert C(sp3)-H bonds.

The first visible-light-induced trifluoromethylation and monofluoroalkenylation of simple alkenes via a challenging radical–radical cross-coupling step was achieved. This method provided a mild, step-economical and redox-neutral route to privileged two different fluorinated difunctionalized allyl compounds. The utility of this method is illustrated by late-stage modification of medically important molecules.

A new olefination protocol for transition-metal-free cross-coupling of two carbene fragments arising from two different sources, namely, a nonfluorinated carbene fragment resulting from a diazo compound and a difluorocarbene fragment derived from Ruppert-Prakash reagent (TMSCF3) or TMSCF2Br, has been developed. This gem-difluoroolefination proceeds through the direct nucleophilic addition of diazo compounds to difluorocarbene followed by elimination of N2. Compared to previously reported Cu-catalyzed gem-difluoroolefination of diazo compounds with TMSCF3, which possesses a narrow substrate scope due to a demanding requirement on the reactivity of diazo compounds and in-situ-generated CuCF3, this transition-metal-free protocol affords a general and efficient approach to various disubstituted 1,1-difluoroalkenes, including difluoroacrylates, diaryldifluoroolefins, as well as arylalkyldifluoroolefins. In view of the ready availability of diazo compounds and difluorocarbene reagents and versatile transformations of 1,1-difluoroalkenes, this new gem-difluoroolefination method is expected to find wide applications in organic synthesis.

Cross-coupling between difluorocarbene and carbene-derived intermediates generated from diazocompounds was developed to give gem-difluoroolefins, which constitutes a fast practical pathway to achieve hindered gem-difluoroolefins. The cross-coupling between difluorocarbene and aryl diazoacetates proceeded smoothly in the presence of a copper source, whereas its coupling with diaryl diazomethanes occurred well under metal-free conditions. A mechanism involving a copper-difluorocarbene complex was proposed.

The substituent effects on diastereoselective formation of fulleroids in the reactions of C60 with various unsymmetrical diazoalkanes were investigated. The steric demand on the stereochemical course of reactions dominated the diastereoselectiv
