A NiH-catalyzed polarity-reversed hydroamination of β,γ-, γ,δ- and δ,ε-unsaturated alkenes with electrophilic anthranils was developed. This reaction proceeds in a highly regio- and chemoselective manner to afford γ, δ and ε-arylamines bearing a carbonyl or alcohol functionality with 100% atom efficiency. Preliminary mechanistic studies indicate that the chemoselectivity is controlled by the base and the alcohol product is derived from the base-catalyzed hydrosilylation of the CO bond.

A Pd (II)-catalyzed direct C3-(sp)-H alkenylation of heteroarenes using benzothiazole as a directing group was successfully achieved. A wide range of 2--alkylpyrroles undergo an oxidative coupling with a variety of acrylates to furnish highly regio- and chemoselective E-alkenylation products at the C3 position. An important intermediate complex has been isolated and characterized so as to have an insight into the mechanism.

In light of a growing need for regio- and positionally selective stapling methods involving natural amino acid residues in their unprotected states, we report a rapid, mild, and highly chemoselective three-component stapling reation using a class of molecular linchpins based on 2-arylketobenzaldehydes (ArKBCHOs) that create a fluorescent staple, hereafter referred to as a Fluorescent Isoindole Crosslink (FlICk). This methodology offers positional selectivity favouring , + 4 helical staples comprising a lysine and cysteine, in the presence of competing nucleophiles on unprotected peptides.

DFT calculations have been performed to gain insight into the mechanism of hydrocarbonylation of olefins and the origin of regio- and chemoselectivity. It is shown that the most feasible mechanism involves five steps: (i) decomposition of acetic formic anhydride, (ii) hydropalladation of olefins, (iii) CO migratory insertion, (iv) iodide-assisted acetate-formate exchange, and (v) formylation or carboxylation. Importantly, carboxylation proceeds via the decomposition of anhydride, followed by reductive elimination instead of direct hydrolysis of anhydride.

A TEMPO-N charge-transfer complex enables the electrochemical C-H azidation of various N-heterocycles. The TEMPO ion, generated from TEMPO, assists in producing N by forming a TEMPO-N complex with N . The formation of this complex is supported by UV-vis absorption spectra, cyclic voltammetry studies, and ESI-HRMS studies.

Precisely differentiating chemicals featuring minor discrepancies is the prerequisite for achieving high selectivities in both chemical synthesis and biological activities. However, efficient strategies to differentiate and sort such congeneric compounds are lacking, posing daunting challenges for synthetic endeavours aimed at their orderly incorporation. Here we report a dynamic amine-sorting strategy that incorporates the chemoselective formation of the aminomethyl cyclopalladated complex to achieve the efficient differentiation of amine congeners.
