The superacid-promoted electrophilic Csp3-H bond activation of aliphatic amines generates superelectrophilic species that can be subsequently fluorinated. Demonstrated by low-temperature in situ NMR experiments, the ammonium-carbenium dications, crucial for this reaction, can also react with C-H bonds opening future synthesis perspectives for this mode of activation.

A catalytic, practical and high-yielding procedure for the synthesis of indenes by direct Csp3-H activation under gold(i) catalysis was developed. The scope of the protocol was determined by synthesizing some electron-neutral, electron-poor as well as electron-rich derivatives including the dibenzofurane and carbazole heterocycles. The mechanism of this reaction was elucidated by theoretical calculations using a ONIOM(M08-HX/mixed-basis:PM6) hybrid scheme.

A (N,CAr,CAlk) Au(iii) pincer complex has been synthesized from Au(OAc)3 (OAc = OCOCH3) and 2-(3,5-di-tert-butylphenyl)pyridine (L1) involving a Csp3-H bond activation by electrophilic substitution. In agreement with DFT calculations, the resulting complex significantly improves the performance of Au(tpy)(OAcF)2 (tpy = 2-(p-tolyl)pyridine, OAcF = OCOCF3) in the catalytic trifluoroacetylation of acetylene.

The first rhodium(I)-catalyzed enantioselective intermolecular Csp3 -H activation of various saturated aza-heterocycles including tetrahydroquinolines, piperidines, piperazines, azetidines, pyrrolidines, and azepanes is presented. The combination of a rhodium(I) precatalyst and a chiral monodentate phosphonite ligand is shown to be a powerful catalytic system to access a variety of important enantio-enriched heterocycles from simple starting materials. Notably, the Csp3 -H activation of tetrahydroquinolines is especially challenging due to the adjacent Csp2 -H bond.

An unprecedented method that makes use of the cooperative interplay between molecular iodine and photoredox catalysis has been developed for dual light-activated intramolecular benzylic C-H amination. Iodine serves as the catalyst for the formation of a new C-N bond by activating a remote Csp3 -H bond (1,5-HAT process) under visible-light irradiation while the organic photoredox catalyst TPT effects the reoxidation of the molecular iodine catalyst. To explain the compatibility of the two involved photochemical steps, the key N-I bond activation was elucidated by computational methods.
