Construction of carbon–carbon bonds is one of the most essential tools in chemical synthesis. In the previously established cross-coupling reactions, pre-functionalized starting materials are employed usually in the form of arylor alkyl (pseudo)halides or their metallated derivatives. However, direct use of arenes and alkanes via a twofold oxidative C–H bond activation strategy to access chemoselective C(sp2 )‒C(sp3 ) cross-couplings is highly challenging due to the low reactivity of carbon–hydrogen (C–H) bonds and the difficulty in suppressing side reactions such as homocouplings. Herein, we present a copper-catalyzed cross-dehydrogenative coupling of perfluoroarenes with alkanes. Mechanistic information was obtained by combining experimental and computational studies to suggest that the optimal diketimine copper catalyst system plays a dual role to activate both sp3 and sp2 C‒H bonds.

The rational synthesis of nanographenes and carbon nanoribbons directly on nonmetallic surfaces has been an elusive goal for a long time. We report that activation of the carbon (C)–fluorine (F) bond is a reliable and versatile tool enabling intramolecular aryl-aryl coupling directly on metal oxide surfaces. A challenging multistep transformation enabled by C–F bond activation led to a dominolike coupling that yielded tailored nanographenes directly on the rutile titania surface. Because of efficient regioselective zipping, we obtained the target nanographenes from flexible precursors. Fluorine positions in the precursor structure unambiguously dictated the running of the “zipping program,” resulting in the rolling up of oligophenylene chains. The high efficiency of the hydrogen fluoride zipping makes our approach attractive for the rational synthesis of nanographenes and nanoribbons directly on insulating and semiconducting surfaces.

Without any metal catalyst, a simple and efficient method for the synthesis of E-2-styrylquinolines through sp3 C-H cross-dehydrogenative coupling of benzylamines with 2-methylquinolines mediated by NH4I under air is successfully developed. The oxidative olefination proceeded through deamination and sp3 C–H bond activation. A plausible mechanism is proposed for the construction of E-2-styrylquinolines.
