A metal-free oxidative coupling reaction of trifluoromethyl β-diketones with alcohols for the synthesis of α-keto esters in good to excellent yields has been developed. Preliminary mechanistic studies suggest that an I2/TBHP promoted sequential iodination, C–C bond cleavage, C–O bond formation and oxidation pathway is involved in this reaction.

Herein, direct unactivated C-N borylation of aromatic amines by a photocatalyst was achieved under mild and metal-free conditions. The C-N borylation of aromatic amines with bis(pinacolato)diboron (B<sub>2</sub>pin<sub>2</sub>) proceeded in the presence of a pyrene catalyst under light irradiation (λ = 365 nm) <a>to afford desired borylated products</a> and aminoborane as a byproduct. The yield of borylated product improved under a CO<sub>2</sub> atmosphere. Reactions conducted in the presence of a stoichiometric amount of aminoborane under N<sub>2</sub> or CO<sub>2</sub> indicated that CO<sub>2</sub> reduced the inhibitory effect of aminoborane. Optimal reaction conditions were applied to a variety of aromatic amines. Mechanistic studies suggested that the C-N bond cleavage and C-B bond formation proceeded via a concerted pathway.

Significant developments have been achieved in recent years toward the utilization of (RO)2B-B(OR)2 for exploring transition metal-free organic transformations in organic synthesis. Among the various combinations of Lewis bases with diborons developed so far, pyridine-derivatives are simple, commercially available, and cheap compounds to expand the synthetic utility of diborons by generating borylpyridine anions and pyridine-stabilized boryl radicals via the B-B bond cleavage. These borylpyridine species mediate a series of transformations in both a catalytic and stoichiometric manner for C-X activation (X = Halogen, CO2H, NR2) and concomitant C-borylation, hydroboration, C-C bond formation, and reduction reactions.
