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.

An efficient cobalt-catalyzed C2α selective C(sp3)–H acyloxylation of 2-substituted indoles with tert-butyl peresters to synthesize diverse 2α-acyloxylated indole derivatives is described. This developed method exhibits mild conditions, low-cost catalyst, and high functional group compatibility. The effectiveness of this chemistry is illuminated by a late-stage modification of methylated indomethacin.

We report a new system for the silylation of aryl C-H bonds. The combination of [Ir(cod)(OMe)]<sub>2</sub> and 2,9-Me<sub>2</sub>-phenanthroline (2,9-Me<sub>2</sub>phen) catalyzes the silylation of arenes at lower temperatures and with faster rates than those reported previously, when the hydrogen byproduct is removed, and with high functional group tolerance and regioselectivity. Inhibition of reactions by the H<sub>2</sub> byproduct is shown to limit the silylation of aryl C-H bonds in the presence of the most active catalysts, thereby masking their high activity. Analysis of initial rates uncovered the high reactivity of the catalyst containing the sterically hindered 2,9-Me<sub>2</sub>phen ligand but accompanying rapid inhibition by hydrogen. With this catalyst, under a flow of nitrogen to remove hydrogen, electron-rich arenes, including those containing sensitive functional groups, undergo silylation in high yield for the first time, and arenes that underwent silylation with prior catalysts react over much shorter times with lower catalyst loadings. The synthetic value of this methodology is demonstrated by the preparation of key intermediates in the synthesis of medicinally important compounds in concise sequences comprising silylation and functionalization. Mechanistic studies demonstrate that the cleavage of the aryl C-H bond is reversible and that the higher rates observed with the 2,9-Me<sub>2</sub>phen ligand is due to a more thermodynamically favorable oxidative addition of aryl C-H bonds.

AbstractChiral-auxiliary-mediated synthesis represents the most frequently used synthetic tool for the induction of chirality on α-position of γ-lactams in organic synthesis. However, the general strategy requires the stoichiometric use of chiral reagents with multiple manipulation steps. Transition-metal-catalyzed asymmetric alkene dicarbofunctionalization using readily available substrates under mild conditions allows the simultaneous construction of two vicinal chemical bonds and a chiral carbon center, hence, gain expedient access to chiral heterocycles. Herein, we disclose a Ni-catalyzed enantioselective reaction of 3-butenyl carbamoyl chloride and primary alkyl iodide enabled by a newly designed chiral 8-quinoline imidazoline ligand (8-Quinim). This protocol features broad functional group tolerance and high enantioselectivities, achieving unprecedented synthesis of chiral nonaromatic heterocycles via catalytic reductive protocol.1 Introduction2 Development of 8-Quinim Ligand3 Nickel/8-Quinim-Catalyzed Enantioselective Synthesis of Chiral α-Alkylated γ-Lactam4 Conclusion and Outlook

A series of symmetrical 1,4-disubstituted buta-1,3-diynes is prepared with excellent yields (up to 95%) through homocoupling of terminal alkynes catalyzed by a copper salt under solvent-free conditions. This method provides an environmentally friendly process to prepare 1,3-diynes in short reaction times under mild conditions. Furthermore, the method is suitable for a wide substrate scope and has excellent functional group compatibility. The reaction can also be scaled up to gram level.

The exploration of synthetic methods involving the formation of new chemical bonds at both the nitrogen and carbons atoms of the isocyano group would largely enrich the structural diversity of compounds. Herein, we disclosed a silver-catalyzed difunctionalization of the isocyano group with cyclic oximes. This method can generate a great array of structurally novel and interesting pyrimidinediones and features excellent atom economy, good functional group compatibility, and amenability to late-stage modifications.
