We report a novel organic photoredox catalysis to achieve unprecedented γ-(hetero)aryl/alkenyl-δ-silyl aliphatic amines via silyl-mediated distal (hetero)aryl/alkenyl migration of aromatic/alkenyl amines bearing unactivated alkenes with hydrosilanes. This protocol features mild and metal-free reaction conditions, high atom economy, excellent selectivity, and functional group compatibility. Mechanistic studies suggest that silylation and (hetero)aryl/alkenylation involve photoredox hydrogen atom transfer catalysis and subsequent 1,4-migration of a remote (hetero)aryl/alkenyl group from nitrogen to carbon.

Alkene and alkyne difunctionalization is a flexible process that allows the construction of two functional groups simultaneously in one step. On the other hand, carbosilylation, an ingenious difunctionalization pathway to concurrently incorporate both a silyl group and an organic functional group (alkyl, (hetero)aryl, alkenyl, alkynyl and allenyl) across a carbon-carbon multiple-bond system, is achieving immense interest in recent days. This review article provides a decade's update on the discoveries and developments in the synthesis of carbosilylated products from two very important carbon-carbon unsaturated substrates, alkenes and alkynes.

α-C-H-functionalization of ketones and aldehydes has been intensively explored in organic synthesis. The functionalization of unactivated β-C-H bonds in such carbonyl compounds is less well investigated and developing a general method for their β-C-H arylation remains challenging. Herein we report a method that uses cooperative nickel and photoredox catalysis for the formal β-C-H arylation of aldehydes and ketones with (hetero)aryl bromides.

We report here a new method for the synthesis of organohydrosilanes from phenols and ketones. This method is established through reductive C-Si coupling of chlorohydrosilanes via unconventional Si-Cl cleavage. The reaction offers access to aryl- and alkenylhydrosilanes with a scope that is complementary to those of the established methods.

A new -silyl sulfinylamine reagent allows the rapid preparation of a broad range of (hetero)aryl, alkenyl, and alkyl primary sulfinamides, using Grignard, organolithium, or organozinc reagents to introduce the carbon fragment. Treatment of these primary sulfinamides with an amine in the presence of a hypervalent iodine reagent leads directly to NH-sulfonimidamides. This two-step sequence is straightforward to perform and provides a modular approach to sulfonimidamides, allowing ready variation of both reaction components, including primary and secondary amines.

A regioselective carbosilylation of alkenes has emerged as a powerful strategy to access molecules with functionalized silylated alkanes, by incorporating silyl and carbon groups across an alkene double bond. However, to the best of our knowledge, organic fluorides have never been used in this protocol. Here we disclose the catalyst-free carbosilylation of alkenes using silyl boronates and organic fluorides mediated by BuOK.
