Palladium-catalyzed arylation of unactivated β-C(sp)-H bonds in carboxylic acid derivatives with aryl iodides is described for the first time using 2-amino-5,6-difluorophenyl-1-pyrazole as an efficient and readily removable directing group. Two fluoro groups are installed at the 5- and 6-position of the anilino moiety in 2-aminophenyl-1-pyrazole, clearly enhancing the directing ability of the auxiliary. In addition, the protocol employs Cu(OAc)/AgPO (1.2/0.3) as additives, evidently reducing the stoichiometric amount of expensive silver salts. Furthermore, this process exhibits high β-site selectivity, compatibility with diverse substrates containing α-hydrogen atoms, and excellent functional group tolerance.

A visible-light-promoted azidation/arylation of unactivated alkenes with Togni-N has been achieved, leading to a series of azidated pyrrolo[1,2-]indoles under photocatalyst-free conditions. Notably, an EDA complex derived from the electron-rich indole derivatives and Togni-N served as the key intermediate in this reaction.

Arylethylamines represent a privileged scaffold in pharmaceutical compounds and form the backbone of many medical drugs, including those used for treating neurological diseases and pain. Their biomedical significance has inspired new synthetic methods that rely on transition metal-catalyzed aminoarylation reaction to an alkene, often in conjunction with a photoredox catalyst or a photosensitizer, and guided by a directing or stabilizing group. Here, we introduce a simple and effective method for azidoarylation of unactivated alkenes under transition metal-free conditions.

Transition metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction between organometallic reagents and electrophiles is a potent method for constructing C(sp)-C(sp) bonds. Given the characters of organometallic reagents, cross-reductive coupling is emerging as an alternative strategy. The resurgence of electrochemistry offers an ideal method for electrochemical reductive of cross-coupling electrophiles.

Article Synopsis
- The study introduces a new method for arylating ketones using a photoredox catalyzed process that involves enamine formation from C(sp)-H bonds.
- This method effectively couples noncyclic ketones with aryl bromides and chlorides, yielding α-arylated ketones in moderate to good quantities under mild conditions.
- The technique successfully synthesizes various carbonyl α-arylated compounds that are relevant in natural products and pharmaceuticals.

Organobarium reagents are of interest as homologues of the Grignard reagents based on organomagnesium compounds due to their unique reactivity as well as regio- and stereoselectivity. However, reactions involving organobarium reagents are less developed in comparison to reactions involving Grignard reagents due to the lack of a simple and economical synthetic method and their high reactivity. To the best of our knowledge, there is no established method for the direct synthesis of organobarium compounds from commercially available bulk barium metal and organic halides.
