We report herein an efficient and site-selective electrophilic trifluoromethylthiolation of indolines. In the absence of any catalyst or additive, C5-selective trifluoromethylthiolation could proceed at room temperature. With palladium used as the catalyst, the selectivity was reversed completely, giving C7-selecive trifluoromethylthiolated products. This reaction features good functional group tolerance, simple operation, mild conditions, and scale-up application. The potential utilities of the products were shown by further transformations.

An intermolecular carboamination reaction of allyl amines under Pd(ii)-catalysis is reported, expediting the synthesis of valuable vicinal diamines embedded in a functionally enriched linear carbon framework with high yields and exclusive Markovnikov selectivity. Central to our approach is the strategic use of a removable picolinamide auxiliary, which directs the regioselectivity during aminopalladation and stabilizes the crucial 5,5-palladacycle intermediate. This stabilization facilitates oxidative addition to carbon electrophiles, enabling the simultaneous incorporation of diverse aryl/styryl groups as well as important amine motifs, such as sulfoximines and anilines, across carbon-carbon double bonds.

The site-selective alkylation of α-aminotropones is effectively realized via gold(I)-catalyzed electrophilic activation of allenamides and allenyl ethers, yielding up to 85% in 30 examples. A dedicated and combined spectroscopic and computational investigation accounts for both chemo- and regioselective profiles of the protocol. New opportunities in the chemical space of tropone/tropolone derivatives are identified.

An efficient visible light/copper-enabled arylation and alkenylation of phosphorothioates with thianthrenium salts via a C(sp)-S cross-coupling reaction have been demonstrated. This strategy uses aryl/alkenyl thianthrenium salts as new electrophilic reagents, which can be easily prepared by the site-selective C-H thianthrenation of arenes/alkenes with high regioselectivity. Mechanistic studies revealed a crucial role of the in situ formed copper-sulfur complex, which undergoes a facile SET process with the thianthrenium salts under visible light conditions, thereby successfully achieving the desired cross-coupling reactivity.
