An alkenyl C-H allylation by an exo-palladacycle intermediate is demonstrated, employing unactivated (Z)-alkenes and allyl carbonates. With the use of an 8-aminoquinoline (AQ) derived amide as the directing group, the N,N-bidentate-chelation-assisted C-H activation protocol proceeded under mild and oxidant-free conditions with excellent selectivity. The utility of this approach is demonstrated by the preparative scale, selective conversion of inseparable Z/E alkenes and ready removal of the amide auxiliary to provide the corresponding ester.

Herein, we report an efficient [Ru(η-CH)Cl] catalyzed oxidative C-H alkenylation of benzoic acid in the green solvent water. A regioselective olefination of benzoic acid with functionalized alkenes like styrene and acrylate was established at a very mild condition of 60 °C temperature and in an aqueous medium. In contrast to the cyclization of the carboxylic group, a selective -olefination product of benzoic acid was observed with the acrylate.

A ligand-promoted oxidative dehydrogenation C-H alkenylation of indoles and olefins was achieved using commercial and low-cost Co(NO)·6HO as a catalyst and Mn(OAc) as an oxidant. The design and selection of electrically unique methyl-substituted salicylaldehyde as a ligand is the key to achieve this transformation. This protocol can introduce an indole backbone into diverse bioactive molecules such as ibuprofen, naproxen, and Estrol for late-stage synthetic modification, which has potential applications in the discovery of drug molecules containing an indole motif.

An unprecedented Pd-catalyzed cascade alkyne insertion/Heck/C-H activation reaction of -iodophenyl alkenyl ethers and diarylacetylenes has been developed. Diversified tetracyclic-fused dihydroindeno[2,1-]chromenes bearing a quaternary center were constructed in an efficient, straightforward, and atom-economic way with good to excellent yields. The protocol features high bonding efficiency, operational simplicity, broad substrate scope, and easy scale-up.

Under iridium-catalyzed conditions, 2-aza-aryl-substituted secondary alcohols undergo C(sp)-H addition reactions to alkynes to provide alkenylated tertiary alcohols. The processes occur with very high regio- and enantioselectivity. An analogous addition to styrene is shown to provide a prototype C(sp)-H alkylation process.

An efficient synthesis of continuously substituted quinoline derivatives palladium-catalyzed intramolecular 6- imidoylative cyclization of -alkenyl aryl isocyanides with (hetero)aryl halides or vinylic triflates has been developed. The reaction proceeds through the concerted metalation-deprotonation (CMD) mechanism by activation of a vinyl C-H bond with imidoylpalladium assisted by the carboxylate.
