<p>α-substituted ketones are important chemical targets as synthetic intermediates as well as functionalities in in natural products and pharmaceuticals. We report the sp<sup>3</sup> C-H α-acetylation of sp<sup>3</sup> C-H substrates R-H with arylmethyl ketones ArC(O)Me to provide α-alkylated ketones ArC(O)CH<sub>2</sub>R at RT with <sup>t</sup>BuOO<sup>t</sup>Bu as oxidant via copper(I) β-diketiminato catalysts. Proceeding via alkyl radicals R•, this method enables α-substitution with bulky substituents without competing elimination that occurs in more traditional alkylation reactions between enolates and alkyl electrophiles. DFT studies suggest the intermediacy of copper(II) enolates [Cu<sup>II</sup>](CH<sub>2</sub>C(O)Ar) that capture alkyl radicals R• to give R-CH<sub>2</sub>C(O)Ar under competing dimerization of the copper(II) enolate to give the 1,4-diketone ArC(O)CH<sub>2</sub>CH<sub>2</sub>C(O)Ar.</p>

<div>We report here a catalytic, Markovnikov selective, and scalable synthetic method for the synthesis of saturated sulfur heterocycles, which are found in the structures of pharmaceuticals and natural products, in one step from an alkenyl thioester. Unlike a potentially labile alkenyl thiol, an alkenyl thioester is stable and easy to prepare. The powerful Co catalysis via a cobalt hydride hydrogen atom transfer and radical-polar crossover mechanism enabled simultaneous cyclization and deprotection. The substrate scope was expanded by the extensive optimization of the reaction conditions and tuning of the thioester unit.</div>

The efficient preparation of nitrile-containing building blocks is of interest due to their utility as synthetic intermediates and their prevalence in pharmaceuticals. As a result, significant efforts have been made to develop methods to access these motifs which rely on safer and non-toxic sources of CN. Herein, we report that 2-methyl-2-phenylpropanenitrile is an efficient, non-toxic, electrophilic CN source for the synthesis of nitrile-bearing quaternary centers via a thermodynamic transnitrilation and anion-relay strategy. This one-pot process leads to nitrile products resulting from the gem-difunctionalization of alkyl lithium reagents.<br>

CDI combined with CH3SO3H was found to be highly effective for the cyclization of 2-aminothiophenol derivatives with carboxylic acids under MW condition. Fourteen benzothiazole derivatives were synthesized in good yield and their structures were characterized by 1H-NMR, 13CNMR, IR and mass spectrometry. This simple, rapid synthetic method is believed to provide a useful process for the synthesis of 2-substituted benzothiazole compounds.
