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.

Both sulfur and fluorine play important roles in organic synthesis, the life science, and materials science. The direct incorporation of these elements into organic scaffolds with precise control of the oxidation states of sulfur moieties is of great significance. Herein, we report the highly selective electrochemical vicinal fluorosulfenylation and fluorosulfoxidation reactions of alkenes, which were enabled by the unique ability of electrochemistry to dial in the potentials on demand. Preliminary mechanistic investigations revealed that the fluorosulfenylation reaction proceeded through a radical-polar crossover mechanism involving a key episulfonium ion intermediate. Subsequent electrochemical oxidation of fluorosulfides to fluorosulfoxides were readily achieved under a higher applied potential with the adventitious H2O in the reaction mixture.

A transition-metal-free deaminative carbonylation of alkylamines with styrenes has been developed. The reaction shows good functional group compatibility and various α,β-unsaturated ketones were obtained in moderate to good yields. The alkyl radical generated from Katritzky salts via base-promoted C-N bond cleavage is one of the key intermediates in this reaction. This journal is

Flavin-dependent ‘ene’-reductases (EREDs) are highly selective catalysts for the asymmetric reduction of activated alkenes. This function is, however, limited to enones, enoates, and nitroalkenes using the native hydride transfer mechanism. Here we demonstrate that EREDs can reduce vinyl pyridines when irradiated with visible light in the presence of a photoredox catalyst. Experimental evidence suggests the reaction proceeds via a radical mechanism where the vinyl pyridine is reduced to the corresponding neutral benzylic radical in solution. DFT calculations reveal this radical to be “dynamically stable”, suggesting it is sufficiently long-lived to diffuse into the enzyme active site for stereoselective hydrogen atom transfer. This reduction mechanism is distinct from the native one, highlighting the opportunity to expand the synthetic capabilities of existing enzyme platforms by exploiting new mechanistic models.

A general and selective method is developed that allows direct vinylic C?H bond trifluoromethylation of 1,1-diarylalkenes by a high-valent copper(III) trifluoromethyl complex, producing biologically active trifluoromethylated alkenes (as well as trifluoro
A Palladium NNC-Pincer Complex as an Efficient Catalyst Precursor for the Mizoroki?Heck Reaction

The Mizoroki?Heck reaction of aryl halides (iodides, bromides, or chlorides) with activated alkenes in the presence of a palladium NNC-pincer complex at ppb to ppm loadings gave the corresponding internal alkenes in excellent yields. The total turnover number and turnover frequency reached up to 8.70×108 and 1.21×107 h?1 (3.36×103 s?1), respectively. The catalyst was applied in a ten-gram-scale synthesis of the UV-B sunscreen agent octinoxate (2-ethylhexyl 4-methoxycinnamate). Reaction-rate analyses, transmission electron microscopic examination of the reaction mixture, and poisoning tests suggested that a monomeric palladium species is the catalytically active species in the catalytic cycle.

Unprecedented hydroxy-alkynylation and -alkenylation reactions of arylalkenes have been developed through electrochemically enabled addition of an organotrifluoroborate reagent and H2O across the double bond of the alkene. The use of electrochemistry to promote these oxidative alkene 1,2-difunctionalization reactions not only obviates the need for transition-metal catalysts and oxidizing reagents but also ensures high regio- and chemoselectivity to afford homopropargylic or homoallylic alcohols. The possibility of extending the electrochemical alkene difunctionalization strategy to other alkene carbo-heterofunctionalization reactions has been demonstrated.

Ligand-free Pd-MCM41 catalysts are highly active in the Heck coupling of bromoarenes including deactivated bromo derivatives to give coupled products in high yields with high selectivities without the need to exclude air or moisture. The catalyst samples exhibit unprecedented stability among heterogeneous catalysts and can be reused at least 20 times to achieve complete conversion without any additional activation treatment.
