Selective C-H activation with a series of neutral aluminum trisamide bases led to a wide range of polyfunctional aryl and heteroaryl aluminum reagents. Ester and cyano groups are stable under the reaction conditions for this direct alumination, and donor oxygen substituents are efficient directing groups. High metalation regioselectivities were observed with O,S and N,S heterocycles (see example).

A novel screening platform for the nickel-catalyzed cyanation of (hetero)aryl halides relying on the use of air-stable Ni(COD)DQ at low loading is reported. Through high-throughput experimentation (HTE), various ligand and solvent combinations are systematically explored, allowing the fast identification of suitable conditions. This standardized workflow serves as an excellent starting point for selecting other competent nickel precatalysts and for further optimization of reluctant substrates.

General procedures for the rhodium-catalyzed annulation of aryl/heteroaryl -pivaloyl hydroxamic acids and norbornadiene have been developed. Employing norbornadiene as an acetylene equivalent enables utilization of diverse heterocyclic substrates for this transformation which fail to react or undergo competitive Lossen rearrangement under previously reported conditions. Microwave heating significantly reduces reaction times compared to conventional protocols and allows a one-step process to be realized.

This manuscript describes a strategy to readily access diverse aryl and homoaryl alanine-containing pharmaceutically relevant macrocyclic peptides. A two-step sequence involving the late-stage installation of the pyridinium functionality on macrocyclic peptides followed by reductive couplings was implemented. These transformations are amenable to microscale high-throughput experimentation (HTE) and enable rapid access to aryl alanine-containing macrocyclic peptides that would otherwise be inaccessible solid-phase peptide synthesis using commercially available amino acids.

Carbonylation of aryl electrophiles is an important method for constructing aromatic carbonyl compounds for materials science and pharmaceutical applications. However, there have been few studies on the carbonylation of abundant, inexpensive aryl chlorides. Moreover, the existing carbonylation methods usually require a high temperature, control of the CO pressure, and structurally complex catalysts and ligands.
