1,3,2-Diazaphospholenes (DAPs) are an emerging class of organic hydrides. In this work, we exploited them as efficient catalysts for very mild reductive Claisen rearrangements. The method is tolerant towards a wide variety of functional groups and operates at ambient temperature. Besides being enantiospecific for substrates with existing stereogenic centers, the diastereoselectivity can be switched by varying solvents and DAP catalysts. The reaction kinetics show direct rearrangements of O-bound phospholene enolates and provide a proof-of-principle for catalytic enantioselective reactions.

A robust Ru(II)-catalyzed C-H allylation of electron-deficient alkenes with allyl alcohols in aqueous solution is reported. This method provides a straightforward and efficient access to the synthetically useful 1,4-diene skeletons. With the assistance of the N-methoxycarbamoyl directing group, this allylation reaction features a broad substrate scope with good functional group tolerance, excellent regio- and stereoselectivity, absence of metal oxidants, water-tolerant solvents, and mild reaction conditions. The mechanistic studies indicate that the process of the reversible C-H bond ruthenation is assisted by acetate, and the rate-determining step is unlikely to be the step of C-H bond cleavage.
Switchable C-H Functionalization of N-Tosyl Acrylamides with Acryloylsilanes

A controllable Rh-catalyzed protocol to access alkylation and alkenylation-annulation of N-tosyl acrylamide with acryloyl silane is reported. In contrast to the directing group or catalyst-dependent divergent sp2 C-H alkylation/alkenylation, the intrinsic property of acryloylsilane allows the switchable reaction manifold, thereby affording either alkylation or annulation products with slight modification of the reaction conditions.
