A multifunctionalization of unactivated cyclic ketones via synergistic catalysis of copper and diarylamine for the direct synthesis of cyclic α-enaminone is reported for the first time. This reaction goes through oxidative α-amination, followed by a desaturation, and features mild reaction conditions, a broad substrate scope, and great functional group tolerance.

Although highly appealing for rapid access of molecular complexity, multi-functionalization of alkenes that allows incorporation of more than two functional groups remains a prominent challenge. Herein, we report a novel strategy that merges dipolar cycloaddition with photoredox promoted radical ring-opening remote C(sp)-H functionalization, thus enabling a smooth 1,2,5-trifunctionalization of unactivated alkenes. A highly regioselective [3+2] cycloaddition anchors a reaction trigger onto alkene substrates.

The regioselective hydroamination of unactivated alkenes is a long-standing challenge in organic synthesis. Herein, we report a NiH-catalyzed proximal-selective hydroamination of unactivated alkenes with 8-aminoquinoline (AQ) as a bidentate auxiliary and anthranils as aminating reagents. A wide range of primary aryl amines bearing an -carbonyl group were installed in both terminal and internal unactivated alkenes, delivering a variety of valuable β- and γ-amino acid building blocks, respectively, with excellent regiocontrol.

Selective deuteration of unactivated C(sp)-H bonds is a highly attractive but challenging subject of research in pharmaceutical chemistry, material science and synthetic chemistry. Reported herein is a practical, highly selective and economical efficient hydrogen/deuterium (H/D) exchange of unactivated C(sp)-H bonds by synergistic photocatalysis and hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) catalysis. With the easily prepared PMP-substituted amides as nitrogen-centered radical precursors, a wide range of structurally diverse amides can undergo predictable radical H/D exchange smoothly with inexpensive DO as the sole deuterium source, giving rise to the distal tertiary, secondary and primary C(sp)-H bonds selectively deuterated products in yields of up to 99% and excellent D-incorporations.

C-H functionalization has been emerging as a powerful method to establish carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom bonds. Many efforts have been devoted to transition-metal-catalyzed direct transformations of C-H bonds. Metal carbenes generated from transition-metal compounds and diazo or its equivalents are usually applied as the transient reactive intermediates to furnish a catalytic cycle for new C-C and C-X bond formation.

Herein we describe an efficient distal ipso-migration of - and -containing heteroaryls and the radical heteroarylation of unactivated alkenes. The migration is triggered by various fluoroalkyl radicals, leading to valuable multifunctionalized ketones. The comparisons of migratory aptitude for -/-containing heteroaryls are comprehensively investigated.
