An efficient Fe(TPP)Cl catalyzed insertion reaction of in situ generated benzylic carbenes from N-tosylhydrazones into X-H (X = Si, Sn, Ge) was developed. Silanes bearing tertiary, secondary, and primary (3°, 2°, and 1°) Si-H bonds all reacted well to afford insertion products in moderate to high yields (up to 97%), and the reaction time could be significantly shortened to 1 h under microwave irradiation. A programmable stepwise double insertion strategy was developed for the synthesis of unsymmetrical tetrasubstituted silanes.

Heck silylation of unactivated alkenes is an efficient strategy for the synthesis of useful organosilicon compounds. However, extensive efforts have been dedicated to only achieving achiral molecules. Herein, a highly regio- and enantioselective cobalt-catalyzed Heck silylation of unactivated alkenes with hydrosilanes is reported for the first time, providing access to axially chiral alkenes in good to excellent yields with 87-98% ee.

Monoanionic, bidentate-auxiliary-directed, cobalt-catalyzed C-H bond functionalization has become a very useful tool in organic synthesis. A comprehensive investigation into isolated organometallic intermediates and their reactivity within the catalytic cycle is lacking. We report here mechanistic studies of cobalt-catalyzed, aminoquinoline-directed C(sp)-H bond functionalization.

Aryl aldehydes are key synthetic intermediates in the manufacturing of active pharmaceutical ingredients. They are generated on scale (>1000 kg) through the palladium-catalyzed formylation of aryl bromides using syngas (CO/H). The best-in-class catalyst system for this reaction employs di-1-adamantyl--butylphosphine (cataium A), palladium(II) acetate, and tetramethylethylenediamine.

Increasing attention to sustainability and cost-effectiveness in energy storage sector has catalyzed the rise of rechargeable Zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs). However, finding replacement for limited cycle-life Zn-anode is a major challenge. Molybdenum disulfide (MoS), an insertion-type 2D layered material, has shown promising characteristics as a ZIB anode.

The ever-increasing demand in chemical biology and medicinal research requires the development of new synthetic methods for the rapid construction of libraries of heterocycles from simple raw materials. In this context, the utilization of primary amines or HO as the simple - or -sources in the assembly of a heterocyclic ring skeleton is highly desirable from the viewpoint of atom- and step-economy. Herein, we describe a highly efficient three-component reaction of diazo, allylic diacetates, and commercially available anilines (or HO) to access structurally diverse pyrrolidine and tetrahydrofuran derivatives.
