Via light irradiation, cross-dehydrogenative coupling of quinolines with alcohols and ethers was achieved under mild conditions. A stoichiometric amount of HCl and room temperature were necessary to promote the reaction. A green Minisci-type cross-dehydrogenative coupling reaction was performed without an oxidant or a transition-metal catalyst.

The electrochemically induced reaction between alkenes, bearing an allylic hydrogen atom, and -hydroxyphthalimide was investigated. Cross-dehydrogenative C-O coupling with phthalimide--oxyl radical, derived from -hydroxyphthalimide, occurs instead of oxidation of the allylic site, with the formation of a carbonyl group or functionalization of the double C=C bond. The discovered transformation proceeds in an undivided electrochemical cell equipped with a carbon felt anode and a platinum cathode.

An active catalytic system for the cross-dehydrogenative coupling (CDC) of a wide range of secondary amines with silanes is reported. The iridium(III) derivatives [Ir(H)(X)(κ-NSi)(L)] (NSi = {4,8-dimethylquinoline-2-yloxy}dimethylsilyl; L = coe, X = Cl, ; L = coe, X = OTf, ; L = PCy, X = Cl, ; L = PCy X = OTf, ), which are stabilized by a weak yet noticeable Ir···H-C agostic interaction between the iridium and one of the C-H bonds of the 8-Me substituent of the NSi ligand, have been prepared and fully characterized. These species have proven to be effective catalysts for the CDC of secondary amines with hydrosilanes.

Azoloazine derivatives are known as promising small molecules that are potentially able to counteract a broad spectrum of RNA viruses including SARS-CoV-2. However, a pool of synthetic pathways to provide convenient structural modification of such compounds without de novo construction of the heterocyclic scaffold is rather limited so far. This work proposes an approach to the direct C(sp)-H functionalization of azolopyrimidine substrates with aromatic thiol residues, mediated by the iodine/persulfate reagent system.

Benzylic C(sp)-H Phosphonylation via Dual Photo and Copper Catalysis.

Alkyl phosphonates are important motifs in medicinal chemistry, yet their efficient synthesis by direct C(sp)-H functionalization remains a challenge. Here, we report straightforward access to benzylic phosphonates by direct C(sp)-H functionalization in a cross-dehydrogenative-coupling reaction between non-specialized alkylarenes and unfunctionalized phosphites. Notably, the C-H substrates are used as the limiting reagents.

Enantioselective Nickel-Electrocatalyzed Cross-Dehydrogenative α- and γ-Nitroalkylation.

Asymmetric catalytic versions of electricity-driven processes hold immense potential for the sustainable preparation of chiral compounds. However, the involvement of anodic oxidative cross-dehydrogenative coupling events between two distinct nucleophiles makes it challenging for a chiral catalyst to regulate the stereochemistry of the products. Our current electrocatalytic strategy for enantioconvergent cross-dehydrogenative α- and γ-nitroalkylation via radical-based pathways produces an array of enantioenriched nitroesters without supplementary stoichiometric oxidants.
