Rhodium-catalyzed C–H allylation of acrylamide derivatives with various allyl acetates was reported. The use of weakly coordinating directing group resulted in high reaction efficiency and excellent γ-selectivity. This reaction displays broad functional group tolerance, which opens a new synthetic pathway for the access of functionalized 1,4-diene skeletons.

Rh(III)-catalyzed C–H activation features mild reaction conditions, good functional group tolerance, high reaction efficiency, and regioselectivity. Recently, it has attracted tremendous attention and has been employed to synthesize various heterocycles, such as indoles, isoquinolines, isoquinolones, pyrroles, pyridines, and polyheterocycles, which are important privileged structures in biological molecules, natural products, and agrochemicals. In this short review, we attempt to present an overview of recent advances in Rh(III)-mediated C–H bond activation to generate diverse heterocyclic scaffolds with sp3 carbon centers.

Cobalt(III)-catalyzed electrophilic amination of inert C(sp3)–H bonds of weakly coordinating thioamides with readily accessible anthranil derivatives was accomplished under mild conditions, with good functional group tolerance, thus providing various amino aldehydes and amino ketones. Moreover, our protocol with the versatile [Cp*Co(MeCN)3][SbF6]2 features excellent atom-economy and oxidant-free conditions, and allows facile late-stage functionalization.

Versatile C–H amidations of synthetically useful ferrocenes were accomplished by weakly-coordinating thiocarbonyl-assisted cobalt catalysis. Thus, carboxylates enabled ferrocene C–H nitrogenations with dioxazolones, featuring ample substrate scope and robust functional group tolerance. Mechanistic studies provided strong support for a facile organometallic C–H activation manifold.

Herein, we report an iridium-catalyzed directed C−H amination methodology developed using a high-throughput experimentation (HTE)-based strategy, applicable for the needs of automated modern drug discovery. The informer library approach for investigating accessible directing group chemical space for the reaction, in combination with functional group tolerance screening and substrate scope investigations, allowed for the generation of an empirical predictive model to guide future users. Applicability to late-stage functionalization of complex drugs and natural products, in combination with multiple deprotection protocols leading to the desirable aniline matched pairs, serve to demonstrate the utility of the method for drug discovery. Finally reaction miniaturization to a nano molar range highlights the opportunities for more sustainable screening with decreased material consumption.

Abstract The development of a unified and straightforward method for the synthesis of ɤ-alkynylated ketones, esters, and amides is an unmet challenge. Here we report a general and practical protocol to access ɤ-alkynylated esters, ketones, and amides with diverse substitution patterns enabled by dual-catalyzed spontaneous formation of Csp3–sp3 and Csp3–sp bond from alkenes at room temperature. This directing-group-free strategy is operationally simple, and allows for the straightforward introduction of an alkynyl group onto ɤ-position of carbonyl group along with the streamlined skeleton assembly, providing a unified protocol to synthesize various ɤ-alkynylated esters, acids, amides, ketones, and aldehydes, from readily available starting materials with excellent functional group compatibility.

In this study, we report an investigation into the steric (cone angle, θ) and electronic properties of ligands in Ru-catalyzed C–H arylation of aromatic benzamides bearing 8-aminoquinoline as an N,N’-bidentate-directing group. The study employs [RuCl2( p-cymene)]2 as a precatalyst, and a ligand, under study, as a cocatalyst. Various electronically and sterically different monodentate and bidentate phosphine ligands were examined. Other ligands such as phosphites and amines were also tested. The study reveals that while bidentate phosphines, phosphites, and aryl and alkyl amines were found to be ineffective, monodentate triarylphosphines represented by triphenylphosphine were found to be the most effective ligands in the Ru-catalyzed C–H arylation under the conditions specified. In addition, the study reveals that there is a correlation between the steric effects, cone angle (θ) and the reaction efficiency. Thus, for symmetrical phosphine ligands, as the cone angle increases, the yield of the CH arylation product gradually decreased. Moreover, the electronic properties of triarylphosphine ligands influenced the reaction as demonstrated by the decreased ability of electron-poor ligands to promote the reaction. The study also reveals a correlation between the electronic parameter, υCO, of the triarylphosphine ligand and the reaction efficiency. As the carbonyl stretching frequency increases, the reaction yield gradually decreased.
