Herein, we report a method for the regioselective alkylation and phosphonation of quinoline C4-H via a BH-mediated nucleophilic addition of Turbo Grignard reagents and phosphine oxide anions to quinolines bearing different substituents, affording the 4-alkyl and 4-phosphoryl quinolines and tetrahydroquinolines after one-pot oxidation or reduction. The results indicate that coordination of the BH group can activate substrates toward a potential 1,4-dearomative addition and subtly control the regioselectivity by preventing the 1,2-dearomative addition.

An isoreticular metal-organic framework (MOF) series was constructed from nickel or cobalt nodes, phosphonate monoester, and bipyridine linkers. The cobalt-containing MOFs were found to catalyze the dehydrogenative C-H borylation of alkenes under mild conditions. This process selectively generates vinyl boronate without the formation of alkyl boronate byproducts and is insensitive to air, enabling large-scale preparation of the target products with isolated yields of over 80%.

The DBU-promoted three-component coupling reaction of H-phosphonates, [60]fullerene, and alkyl bromides has been developed as a facile and efficient protocol for the one-pot synthesis of various 1,4-(phosphonyl)(organo)[60]fullerenes. This method exhibits high regioselectivity at the 1,4-position on the [60]fullerene core and features a metal-free nature, easy operation, low cost, and a wide range of substrates.

Copper radioisotopes can be used for imaging as well as for therapy and, thus, can form ideal theranostic pairs. The Cu(II) complexes of cross-bridged cyclam (cb-cyclam) derivatives are considered to be highly stable . However, the complexes are mostly formed under harsh conditions not compatible with sensitive biomolecules.

Late-stage (radio)fluorination of alkyl phosphonates via electrophilic activation.

Constructing organic fluorophosphines, vital drug skeletons, through the direct fluorination of readily available alkyl phosphonates has been impeded due to the intrinsic low electrophilicity of P and the high bond energy of P═O bond. Here, alkyl phosphonates are electrophilically activated with triflic anhydride and N-heteroaromatic bases, enabling nucleophilic fluorination at room temperature to form fluorophosphines via reactive phosphine intermediates. This approach facilitates the late-stage (radio)fluorination of broad dialkyl and monoalkyl phosphonates.
