64. Cascade C-N Bond Cleavage of Amides/Intramolecular  Amination Reactions: An Atom Economical Way to α-Cabolin-4-ones
64. Cascade C-N Bond Cleavage of Amides/Intramolecular Amination Reactions: An Atom Economical Way to α-Cabolin-4-ones
An atom economical approach for the synthesis of α-carbolin-4-ones has been developed. This process was realized via a C–N bond cleavage/intramolecular amination cascade. During this process, one C–N and one C–C bond are cleaved and two C–N and two C–C bonds are formed. Mechanistic studies suggested a migrative N-cyclization process involving a carbene intermediate.

63. Mechanism, bonding nature of metal-nitrenoid, and selectivity for a  nitrene-participating three-component carboamination of dienes: A DFT study
63. Mechanism, bonding nature of metal-nitrenoid, and selectivity for a nitrene-participating three-component carboamination of dienes: A DFT study
A theoretical and computational study was performed on the nitrene-participating three-component carboamination of dienes. The reaction proceeds mainly through C–H activation, olefin insertion, metal nitrenoid formation, and selective C–N coupling. The role of solvent effect enables the extrusion of carbon dioxide to generate the key metal nitrenoid being not concerted but stepwise. The Rh = N was indicated by HOMO-LUMO interactions that the backdonation is dominant and hence showing the electron withdrawing behavior of nitrene. Regioselectivity for C–C bond formation, E-type product, and 1,4-carboamination was discussed.

62. Mechanism of Rh(III)-Catalyzed Alkylation of N-Pyrimidylindoline  with Cyclopropanols: A DFT Study
62. Mechanism of Rh(III)-Catalyzed Alkylation of N-Pyrimidylindoline with Cyclopropanols: A DFT Study
The reaction features combination of C–H activation and ring opening of cyclopropanol was studied with the aid of DFT calculations. With the reaction of N-pyrimidylindoline and 1-benzylcyclopropanol as an example to accomplish the alkylation, we found the order of C–H activation/ring opening is difficult to occur. Instead, the order of ring opening/C–H activation is predicted to be more reasonable, which circumvents the N→Rh bond breaking. Two catalytic cycles were suggested. The first cycle relates to the catalytic oxidation of cyclopropanol by Cu(II) to generate an intermediate product, the vinyl ketone. The mechanism mainly involves prior ring opening of cyclopropanol and β-H elimination. The second cycle relates to the product formation from the resultant intermediate product, in which the C–H activation of N-pyrimidylindoline, C– –C bond insertion of the intermediate product and protonation are included. The insights gained in this study are expected to be pertinent in other react

61. Ligand-Free Iron-Catalyzed Regioselectivity-  Controlled Hydrobo-ration of Aliphatic Terminal Alkenes
61. Ligand-Free Iron-Catalyzed Regioselectivity- Controlled Hydrobo-ration of Aliphatic Terminal Alkenes
The control of regioselectivities has been recognized as the elementary issue for alkene hydroboration. Despite considerable progress, the specificity of alkene substrates or the adjustment of ligands was necessary for specific regioselectivities, which restrict the universality and practicability. Herein, we report a ligand-free iron-catalyzed regiodivergent hydroboration of aliphatic terminal alkenes that obtains both Markovnikov and anti-Markovnikov hydroboration products in high regioselectivities. Notably, solvents and bases were shown to be crucial factors influencing the regioselectivities and further studies suggested that the iron−boron alkoxide ate complex is the key intermediate that determines the unusual Markovnikov regioselectivity. Terminal alkenes with diverse structures (monosubstituted and 1,1-disubstituted, open-chain and exocyclic) underwent the transformation smoothly. The reaction does not require the addition of auxiliary ligands and it can be performed on a gram

96. Non-C1 Synthon Role of CO2: Promoting Divergent Electrochemical Defluorination
96. Non-C1 Synthon Role of CO2: Promoting Divergent Electrochemical Defluorination
Here, an unpresented non-C1 synthon function of CO2 is reported to facilitate electrochemical defluorination. The introduction of CO2 modulates the electron distribution of the radical anion intermediate generated through one-electron reduction, thereby weakening the reduction potential and facilitating reduction and defluorination. CO2 is released subsequently via spontaneous decarboxylation to complete its promotion role. The presented results shed light on a distinctive utilization of CO2, which may stimulate interest in developing non-C1 synthon functions of CO2.

95. Transition-Metal-Free Mild and Regioselective Alkylation of Quinoline N-Oxides with Benzylboronates
95. Transition-Metal-Free Mild and Regioselective Alkylation of Quinoline N-Oxides with Benzylboronates
A KOtBu-mediated C2-benzylation of quinoline N-oxides with benzylboronates under mild reaction conditions has been developed. The reaction shows broad scope for both of the quinoline N-oxides and benzylboronates, especially, secondary and tertiary benzylboronates are also compatible with this reaction. DFT calculations indicate that the reaction is promoted by the nucleophilic addition of KOtBu to boronate rather than the deprotonation of benzylic C−H bond with KOtBu.

94. trans-Ge/B 1,1-Hydroboration of Alkynylgermanes with 9‑BBN
94. trans-Ge/B 1,1-Hydroboration of Alkynylgermanes with 9‑BBN
A 1,1-hydroboration of alkynylgermanes with unique transGe/B stereochemistry under transition-metal-free conditions is reported. Mechanistic studies suggest that a pathway involving α boration followed by a stepwise 1,2-Ge/H shift on the intermediate structurally lies between an alkyne−Ge+ π complex and a typical vinyl cation. The resulting Ge/B bimetallic modules, along with a Ge*/Ge/B trimetallic variant, can be conveniently transformed into trisubstituted olefins through iterative divergent cross-coupling. This work demonstrates that incorporating metalloids into classical organic reactions may offer unconventional chemical selectivity and efficient synthetic applications.

93. Nickel/Photoredox Catalyzed Aryl-Alkyl Cross-Coupling with Alkyl Boronic Esters as Radical Precursors
Nickel/photoredox dual catalyzed cross-coupling of aryl halides with alkylboron compounds is one of the effective methodologies for the construction of C(sp2) C(sp3) bonds. Although elegant results have been achieved by using alkyl trifluoroborates as alkyl radical precursors, the generation of alkyl radicals from readily available alkyl boronic esters is still limited due to their high oxidation potential. We disclosed here that activation of alkyl boronic esters by MeOLi is highly efficient for the generation of alkyl radicals under photocatalysis conditions. The reaction featured with a wide substrate scope, high functional group tolerance, and late-stage modification of bioactive substances. In addition, the method was also successfully extended to alkyl boronic acids. Experimental and computational mechanistic studies indicated that the crosscoupling likely proceeds via a Ni(I)-catalyzed pathway.
