Photoredox/Cr-catalyzed enantioselective radical-polar crossover transformation via C-H functionalization by Si-Yuan Tang, Zhan-Jie Wang, Yu Ao, Ning Wang, Huan-Ming Huang

“…The realm of enantioselective radical-polar crossover transformation achieved through C-H Functionalization has yet to be fully explored. Herein, we present a successful description of a photoredox/Cr-catalyzed enantioselective three-component (hetero)arylalkylation of 1,3-dienes through C-H functionalization. …”

Catalyst-controlled directing group translocation in the site selective C–H functionalization of 3-carboxamide indoles and metallocarbenes by Kuang Gu, Mary T. Hall, Zachary D. Tucker, Gregory M. Durling, Brandon L. Ashfeld

“…Abstract Complementary methods toward the selective functionalization of indole and oxindole frameworks employing an alternative strategy in heteroaryl C–H functionalizations are presented herein. This work focuses on a catalyst-controlled, site selective C–H activation/functionalization of 3-acyl indoles, wherein an amide serves as a robust and versatile directing group capable of undergoing concomitant 1,2-acyl translocation/C–H functionalization in the presence of a RhI/AgI co-catalysts to provide the cross-coupled adducts in high yields. …”

Anti-Markovnikov hydroallylation reaction of alkenes via scandium-catalyzed allylic C‒H activation by Shiyu Wang, Lichao Ning, Tao Mao, Yuqiao Zhou, Maoping Pu, Xiaoming Feng, Shunxi Dong

“…Abstract Compared with rare-earth (RE)…heteroatom interaction, RE…π interaction, frequently used in facilitating regio- and stereoselectivity of olefin polymerizations, is seldomly used to trigger catalytic C − H functionalization. Here, we describe a direct anti-Markovnikov hydroallylation reaction of styrene derivatives with 1-aryl-2-alkyl alkenes and α-alkenes by use of RE…π interaction. …”
