Arylboronic acids and their derivatives are widely used in organic synthesis. Conventional methods for their preparation require either reactive organometallic reagents or transition-metal-mediated processes. In recent years, transition-metal-free reactions for aryl C–B bond formation that obviate preformed organometallic reagents have gained interest and have developed rapidly. These new reactions have shown significant advantages for the preparation of functionalized molecules. In this review, an overview of the recent advances in transition-metal-free aromatic borylation reactions is provided.1 Introduction2 Transition-Metal-Free Transformations of CAr–N Bonds to CAr–B Bonds3 Transition-Metal-Free Transformations of CAr–X Bonds to CAr–B Bonds4 Transition-Metal-Free Transformations of CAr–H Bonds to CAr–B Bonds5 Conclusion

Five-membered heterocyclic N-oxides attracted special attention due to their strong application potential in medicinal chemistry and advanced materials science. In this regard, novel methods for their synthesis and functionalization are constantly required. In this short review, recent state-of-the-art achievements in the chemistry of isoxazoline N-oxides, 1,2,3-triazole 1-oxides and 1,2,5-oxadiazole 2-oxides are briefly summarized. Main routes to transition-metal-catalyzed and metal-free functionalization protocols along with mechanistic considerations are outlined. Transformation patterns of the hetarene N-oxide rings as precursors to other nitrogen heterocyclic systems are also presented.

Reductive functionalization of CO2 with amines and a reductant, which combines both reduction of CO2 and C–N bond formation in one pot to produce versatile chemicals and energy-storage materials such as formamides, aminals, and methylamines that are usually derived from petroleum feedstock, would be appealing and promising. Herein, we give a brief review on recent developments in the titled CO2 chemistry by employing transition-metal-free catalysis, which can be catalogued as below according to the diversified energy content of the products, that is formamides, aminals, and methylamines being consistent with 2-, 4-, and 6-electron reduction of CO2, respectively. Notably, hierarchical reduction of CO2 with amines to afford at least two products, for example, formamides and methylamines, could be realized with the same catalyst through tuning the hydrosilane type, reaction temperature, or CO2 pressure. Finally, the opportunities and challenges of the reductive functionalization of CO2 with amines are also highlighted.1 Introduction2 2-Electron Reduction of CO2 to Formamide3 6-Electron Reduction of CO2 to Methylamine4 4-Electron Reduction of CO2 to Aminal5 Hierarchical Reduction of CO2 with Amines6 Conclusion
