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

The transition-metal-catalyzed nitrenoid transfer reaction is one of the most attractive methods for installing a new C-N bond into diverse reactive units. While numerous selective aminations are known, understanding complex structural effects of the key intermediates on the observed chemoselectivity is still elusive in most cases. Herein, we report a designing approach to enable selective nitrenoid transfer leading to sp2 spirocyclization and sp3 C-H insertion by cooperative two-point modulation of ligands in the CpXIr(III)(κ2-chelate) catalyst system. Computational analysis led us to interrogate structural motifs that can be attributed to the desired mechanistic dichotomy. Multivariate linear regression analysis on the perturbation on the η5-cyclopentadienyl ancillary (CpX) and LX coligand, wherein we prepared over than 40 new catalysts for screening, allowed for construction of an intuitive yet robust statistical model that predicts a large set of chemoselective outcomes, implying that the catalysts' structural effects play a critical role on the chemoselective nitrenoid transfer. On the basis of this quantitative analysis, a new catalytic platform is now established for the unique lactam formation, leading to the unprecedented chemoselective reactivity (up to >20:1) toward a diverse array of competing sites, such as tertiary, secondary, benzylic, allylic C-H bonds, and aromatic πsystem.

The benzylic C-H group of α,α-dicyanoolefins from 3-substituted 1-indanones could be significantly activated via transmission along the aromatic system, thus enabling dynamic kinetic resolution via a traditional reversible deprotonation- protonation process. Enantioenriched 9-substituted 9H-fluorene frameworks were finally constructed through an asymmetric vinylogous Michael addition to nitroolefins, followed by a cascade cyclization and oxidative aromatization process, under the catalysis of a chiral bifunctional thiourea-tertiary amine.
