Racemic Z homoallylic alcohols were prepared by the BuSnCl3-catalyzed addition of aldehydes to 1-(tributylstannyl)-2-butene. These alcohols were resolved for the first time by lipase-catalyzed enantioselective acetylation in up to 98% enantiomeric purity.

Catalytic carbon-nitrogen bond formation in hydrocarbons is an appealing synthetic tool to access valuable nitrogen-containing compounds. Although a number of synthetic approaches have been developed to construct a bifunctional α-amino carbonyl scaffold in this realm, installation of an amino functionality at the remote and unfunctionalized aliphatic sites remains underdeveloped. Here we present a tandem iridium catalysis that enables the redox-relay amidation of alkenyl alcohols via chain walking and metal-nitrenoid transfer, which eventually offers a new route to various α-amino ketones with excellent regioselectivity. The virtue of this transformation is that an unrefined isomeric mixture of alkenyl alcohols can be utilized as the readily available starting materials to lead to the regioconvergent amidation. Mechanistic investigations revealed that the reaction proceeds via a tandem process involving two key components of redox-relay chain walking and intermolecular nitrenoid transfer with the assistance of hydrogen bonding, thus representing the competence of Ir catalysis for the olefin migratory C-N coupling with high efficiency and exquisite selectivity.

Enantiopure secondary alcohols are fundamental high-value synthetic building blocks. One of the most attractive ways to get access to this compound class is the catalytic hydroboration. We describe a new concept for this reaction type that allowed for exceptional catalytic turnover numbers (up to 15 400), which were increased by around 1.5–3 orders of magnitude compared to the most active catalysts previously reported. In our concept an aprotic ammonium halide moiety cooperates with an oxophilic Lewis acid within the same catalyst molecule. Control experiments reveal that both catalytic centers are essential for the observed activity. Kinetic, spectroscopic and computational studies show that the hydride transfer is rate limiting and proceeds via a concerted mechanism, in which hydride at Boron is continuously displaced by iodide, reminiscent to an SN2 reaction. The catalyst, which is accessible in high yields in few steps, was found to be stable during catalysis, readily recyclable and could be reused 10 times still efficiently working.

Air-stable, easy to prepare, homoleptic cobalt(II) complexes bearing pendant-modified phenoxyimine ligands were synthesized and determined. The complexes exhibited high catalytic performance for reducing aldehydes and ketones via catalytic hydrosilylation, where a hydrosilane and a catalytic amount of the cobalt(II) complex were added under base-free conditions. The reaction proceeded even in the presence of excess water, and excellent functional-group tolerance was observed. Subsequent hydrolysis gave the alcohol in high yields. Moreover, H2O had a critical role in activation of the Co(II) catalyst with hydrosilane. Several additional results also indicated that the cobalt(II) center acts as an active catalyst in the hydrosilylation of aldehydes and ketones.

The base-induced Sommelet–Hauser (S–H) rearrangement of N-(α-branched)benzylic glycine ester-derived ammonium salts 1 was investigated. When the α-branched substituent was a simple alkyl, such as a methyl or butyl, desired S–H rearrangement product 2 was obtained in low yield with formation of the [1,2] Stevens rearranged 4 and Hofmann eliminated products 5 and 6. However, when the α-branched substituent had a 2-oxy moiety, such as 2-acetoxyethyl or 2-benzoyloxyethyl, the yields of 2 were improved. These results could be explained by formation of chelated intermediate C that stabilizes the carbanionic ylide, and the subsequent initial dearomative [2,3] sigmatropic rearrangement would be accelerated. The existence of C was supported by mechanistic experiments. This enhancement effect is not very strong or effective; however, it will expand the synthetic usefulness of ammonium ylide rearrangements.

Herein, we demonstrate an efficient protocol for transfer hydrogenation of ketones using methanol as practical and useful liquid organic hydrogen carrier (LOHC) under Ir(III) catalysis. Various ketones, including electron-rich/electron-poor aromatic ketones, heteroaromatic and aliphatic ketones, have been efficiently reduced into their corresponding alcohols. Chemoselective reduction of ketones was established in the presence of various other reducible functional groups under mild conditions.

Aliphatic primary amines are prevalent in natural products, pharmaceuticals, and functional materials. While a plethora of processes are reported for their synthesis, methods that directly install a free amine group into C(sp3)-H bonds remain unprecedented. Here, we report a set of new-to-nature enzymes that catalyze the direct primary amination of C(sp3)-H bonds with excellent chemo-, regio-, and enantioselectivity, using a readily available hydroxylamine derivative as the nitrogen source. Directed evolution of genetically encoded cytochrome P411 enzymes (P450s whose Cys axial ligand to the heme iron has been replaced with Ser) generated variants that selectively functionalize benzylic and allylic C-H bonds, affording a broad scope of enantioenriched primary amines. This biocatalytic process is efficient and selective (up to 3930 TTN and 96percent ee), and can be performed on preparative scale.

Regioselective incorporation of a particular functional group into aliphatic sites by direct activation of unreactive C?H bonds is of great synthetic value. Despite advances in radical-mediated functionalization of C(sp3)?H bonds by a hydrogen-atom transfer process, the site-selective vinylation of remote C(sp3)?H bonds still remains underexplored. Reported herein is a new protocol for the regioselective vinylation of unactivated C(sp3)?H bonds. The remote C(sp3)?H activation is promoted by a C-centered radical instead of the commonly used N and O radicals. The reaction possesses high product diversity and synthetic efficiency, furnishing a plethora of synthetically valuable E alkenes bearing tri-/di-/mono-fluoromethyl and perfluoroalkyl groups.

Given the similarity of multiple sp3 C-H bonds in electronic properties and bond dissociation energy (BDE), regioselective sp3 C-H bond functionalization remains a paramount challenge. Here, we report a C-centered radical-mediated approach for site-specific sulfonylvinylation of the C(sp3)-H bond via the hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) process. The reaction features mild conditions, broad substrate scope, and high regioselectivity and stereoselectivity, manifesting the nontrivial synthetic potential.
