Photoinduced hydroarylation of alkenes is an appealing synthetic strategy for arene functionalization. Herein, we demonstrated that aryl radicals generated from electron-deficient aryl chlorides/bromides could be trapped by an array of terminal/internal aryl alkenes in the presence of [Pt(O^N^C^N)] under visible-light (410 nm) irradiation, affording anti-Markovnikov hydroarylated compounds in up to 95 % yield. Besides, a protocol for [Pt(O^N^C^N)]-catalyzed intramolecular photocyclization of acrylanilides to give structurally diverse 3,4-dihydroquinolinones has been developed.

Upon treatment with a Lewis base catalyst, β-alkyl-substituted nitroalkenes could be readily converted into allylic nitro compounds. Examples of either C-1 or C-3 functionalization methods have been reported through nitro-elimination, giving alkene products. In this work, successful 1,3-difunctionalization was achieved through a synergetic Lewis base catalysis and TBHP radical oxidation, giving vinylic alkoxyamines in good to excellent yields. This work further extended the general synthetic application of β-alkyl nitroalkenes.

An unprecedented approach for assembling a broad range of 1,2-diarylethane derivatives with fluorine-containing fully substituted carbon centers was developed. The protocol features straightforward operation, proceeds under metal-free condition, and accommodates a large variety of synthetically useful functionalities. The critical aspect to the success of this novel transformation lies in using aryldiazonium salts as both aryl radical progenitor and also as single electron acceptor which elegantly enables a radical-polar crossover manifold.

Hydroaminocarbonylation of alkenes is one of the most promising yet challenging methods for the synthesis of amides. Herein, we reported the development of a novel and effective Pd-catalyzed Markovnikov hydroaminocarbonylation of 1,1-disubstituted or 1,1,2-trisubstituted alkenes with aniline hydrochloride salts to afford amides bearing an α quaternary carbon. The reaction makes use of readily available starting materials, tolerates a wide range of functional groups, and provides a facile and straightforward approach to a diverse array of amides bearing an α quaternary carbon. Mechanistic investigations suggested that the reaction proceeded through a palladium hydride pathway. The hydropalladation and CO insertion are reversible, and the aminolysis is probably the rate-limiting step.

The transition-metal-catalyzed allylation reaction is an efficient strategy for the construction of new carbon-carbon bonds alongside allyl or homoallylic functionalization. Herein we describe a Ni-catalyzed reductive allylation of α-chloroboronates to efficiently render the corresponding homoallylic boronates, which could be readily converted into valuable homoallylic alcohols or amines or 1,4-diboronates. This reaction features a broad substrate scope with good functional group compatibility that is complementary to the existing methods for the preparation of homoallylic boronates.

An efficient photocatalytic alkylation/cyclization of allylic amide with N-hydroxyphthalimide ester has been developed. The transformation is taken advantage of alkyl radicals to attack allylic amide with the assist of inexpensive rose bengal as photocatalyst to prepare a series of alkyl substituted oxazolines in moderate to excellent yields. High regioselectivity, operational safety, mild conditions and excellent substrate generality give this protocol broad application prospects.

Herein, we report an unprecedented regiospecific oxidative Mizoroki-Heck type reaction for the synthesis of ɑ-difluoromethyl homoallylic alcohols. The reaction shows broad substrate scopes and high functional group tolerance. Late-stage functionalization of complex biologically active molecules demonstrates the synthetic potential of this transformation. Mechanistic study supports the involvement of MnBr2 catalyzed radical 1,2-silyl transfer.

The first synthesis of highly strained spirocyclobutane-pyrrolines via a palladium-catalyzed tandem Narasaka-Heck/C(sp3 or sp2)-H activation reaction is reported here. The key step in this transformation is the activation of a δ-C-H bond via an in situ generated σ-alkyl-Pd(II) species to form a five-membered spiro-palladacycle intermediate. The concerted metalation-deprotonation (CMD) process, rate-determining step, and energy barrier of the entire reaction were explored by density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Moreover, a series of control experiments was conducted to probe the rate-determining step and reversibility of the C(sp3)-H activation step.
Cationic nickel(II)-catalyzed hydrosilylation of alkenes: Role of p, n?type ligand scaffold on selectivity and reactivity

Seven structurally similar cationic nickel(II)?alkyl complexes were synthesized by using a series of P, N ligands, and their reactivity was explored in the hydrosilylation of alkenes. More electron-rich phosphines enhanced the overall reactivity of the transformation; in contrast, groups on the imine donor had little impact. Overall, these catalysts displayed reactivity and selectivity that was previously unknown or very rare in nickel-catalyzed hydrosilylation. In reactions with Ph2SiH2, 1,2-disubstituted vinylarenes showed complete benzylic selectivity for silane addition, whereas terminal selectivity was observed for 1,1-disubstituted alkenes. The related PhSiH3 led to exclusively Markovnikov selectivity for monosubstituted vinylarenes with no competing double addition observed. Mechanistic investigations supported the hypothesis that a Ni?H functions as the active species in this catalytic hydrosilylation, which in turn also showed catalytic competence for the silane redistribution reaction, especially with sterically unhindered silanes.

An efficient Prins reaction of silyl glyoxylates in the presence of an aqueous ZnCl2 complex as a catalyst was developed, providing functionalized tertiary α-silyl alcohols in high yields under mild conditions. A preliminary investigation indicated that the aqueous ZnCl2 complex acted as a dual functional catalyst of Br?nsted and Lewis acid to activate the carbonyl groups of silyl glyoxylates via a dual-activation model.
