Herein we report the 3,5bistrifluoromethylphenyl urea-catalyzed functionalization of unactivated C–H bonds. In this system, the urea catalyst mediates the formation of high-energy vinyl carbocations that undergo facile C–H insertion and Friedel–Crafts reactions. We introduce a new paradigm for these privileged scaffolds where the combination of hydrogen bonding motifs and strong bases affords highly active Lewis acid catalysts capable of ionizing strong C–O bonds. Despite the highly Lewis acidic nature of these catalysts that enables triflate abstraction from sp<sup>2</sup> carbons, these newly found reaction conditions allow for the formation of heterocycles and tolerate highly Lewis basic heteroaromatic substrates. This strategy showcases the potential utility of dicoordinated vinyl carbocations in organic synthesis.<br>

Intramolecular Hydrogen

The infra-red spectra of o-nitroanilines do not indicate any intramolecular hydrogen bonding unless there are nitro groups in both positions 2 and 6 to the amino group. An examination of the literature shows that there is no unambiguous evidence from other sources of such bonding in simple o-nitroanilines. An explanation is given of the variation of the stretching frequencies of the nitro group in sterically hindered compounds and in those with electron-donating ortho- and para-substituents.

Universal Bases

A number of aromatic universal base analogues have been described in the literature, but most are non-hydrogen bonding. We have examined the effect of introducing hydrogen bonding carboxamide groups onto the pyrrole ring of 5-nitroindole. The modified analogues retain universal base features, but there are no overall effects on duplex stability. This leads to the suggestion that the nitro group is within the hydrogen bonding face of the duplex, and the hydrogen bonding carboxamide group is in the duplex major groove.
