The ligand-free Lewis acid-mediated regioselective hydroamination and hydroarylation of styrenes have been successfully developed in the presence of isatins or heterocyclic aryl compounds such as benzothiophenes and benzofurans. The reactions tolerate a variety of functional groups and afford the corresponding products in moderate to good yields. Deuterium labeling experiments show that the functionalized hydrogen of styrenes was derived from the nitrogen-hydrogen of the substrates in the hydroamination.

Herein, we report a Lewis acid-mediated ring expansion of donor-acceptor cyclopropanes (DACs) to substituted azetidines via nucleophilic nitrogen group transfer from readily accessible iminoiodinane. This protocol operates under mild, transition-metal-free conditions, and showcases excellent chemoselectivity, along with broad functional group tolerance. We report for the first time that challenging alkyl donor-acceptor cyclopropanes can undergo ring expansion leading to aliphatic azetidines without relying on external oxidants or precious transition-metal catalysts.

A Lewis acid-mediated C2-trifluoroethylamidation of quinolines, employing quinoline oxides, trifluorodiazoethane, and acetonitrile to forge a new class of (quinolin2-yl)-(trifluoroethyl)acetamide is presented in this Letter. The reaction proceeds through a carbene generation/nitrile ylide formation/(3 + 2) cycloaddition/rearrangement cascade to furnish quinoline-2-(trifluoroethyl)acetamide derivatives in high yields.

The catalyst-electrolyte interface plays a crucial role in proton exchange membrane water electrolysis (PEMWE). However, optimizing the interfacial hydrogen bonding to enhance both catalytic activity and stability remains a significant challenge. Here, a novel catalyst design strategy is proposed based on the hard-soft acid-base principle, employing hard Lewis acids (LAs = ZrO, TiO, HfO) to mediate the reconfiguration of interfacial hydrogen bonding, thereby enhancing the acidic oxygen evolution reaction (OER) performance of RuO.
