This communication describes an efficient palladium pincer complex-catalyzed allylic C-H borylation of alkenes. The transformation exhibits high regio- and stereoselectivity with a variety of linear alkenes. A synthetically useful feature of this allylic C-H borylation method is that all allyl-Bpin products can be isolated in usually high yields. Preliminary mechanistic studies indicate that this C-H borylation reaction proceeds via Pd(IV) pincer complex intermediates.

ConspectusThe Mannich reaction, involving the nucleophilic addition of an enol(ate) intermediate to an imine or iminium ion, is one of the most widely used synthetic methods for the synthesis of β-amino carbonyl compounds. Nevertheless, the homo-Mannich reaction, which utilizes a homoenolate intermediate as the nucleophilic partner and provides straightforward access to the valuable γ-amino carbonyl compounds, remains underexplored. This can be largely attributed to the difficulties in generation and manipulation of the homoenolate species, despite various homoenolate equivalents that have been developed.

A novel palladium-catalyzed allylic C-H alkylation of terminal olefins with 3-carboxamide oxindoles is described. A variety of new 3-carboxamide-3-allylation oxindoles with an all-carbon quaternary center were obtained in moderate to good yields (up to 99%). In addition, the asymmetric version of this reaction was also explored, providing moderate enantioselectivity.

A scalable and sustainable electrochemical protocol for allylic C-H aerobic oxidation has been developed, enabling the formation of enones without the use of stoichiometric toxic oxidants or metal catalysts and offering an environmentally benign alternative to traditional chemical oxidation techniques. The process has been successfully applied to selectively oxidize a series of natural products and drug molecules, underscoring its potential for widespread adoption in both academic and industrial contexts.

Rhodium(III) catalysis has been used for C-H activation of -nitrosoanilines with substituted allyl alcohols. This method provides an efficient synthesis of the functional -nitroso β-aryl aldehydes and ketones with low catalyst loading, high functional group tolerance, and superior reactivity of allyl alcohols toward -nitrosoanilines. We demonstrated that reaction also proceeds through the one-pot synthesis of -nitrosoaniline, followed by subsequent, C-H activation.

The direct enantioselective functionalization of C(sp)-H bonds in organic molecules could fundamentally transform the synthesis of chiral molecules. In particular, the enantioselective oxidation of these bonds would dramatically change the production methods of chiral alcohols and esters, which are prevalent in natural products, pharmaceuticals, and fine chemicals. Remarkable advances have been made in the enantioselective construction of carbon-carbon and carbon-nitrogen bonds through the C(sp)-H bond functionalization.
