Abstract
The ε-benzylation of γ-alkenyl-γ-oxidized enals via dual photoredox and N-heterocyclic carbene catalysis has been developed, affording the corresponding ε-benzyl-α,β-γ,δ-bisunsaturated esters in moderate to good yields with exclusive regioselectivities. The reaction is proposed via the generation of benzyl radical under photocatalysis, followed by its addition to an NHC-bound trienolate intermediate.

Abstract
We report a method for gold(III)/sodium diphenylphosphinobenzene-3-sulfonate (TPPMS)-catalyzed direct amination of benzhydrols using 2-aminopyridines with poor nucleophilic character in water. Various functional groups such as electron-withdrawing nitro, cyano and halogen groups were tolerated well to form the desired N-benzylated 2-aminopyridine compounds. On the basis of mechanistic studies including kinetic profiles, Hammett study and isotope effects, we propose a pathway in which a Lewis acidic gold cation species activates the sp3 C-O bond of the alcohol in the rate-determining step.

Abstract
Cu-catalyzed N-arylation is a useful tool for the chemical modification of aromatic heterocycles. Herein, an efficient carbon–nitrogen cross-coupling of methyl 3-amino-1-benzothiophene-2-carboxylate with a range of (hetero)aryl iodides using CuI, l-proline and Cs2CO3 in dioxane at moderate temperature is described. The procedure is an extremely general, relatively cheap, and experimentally simple way to afford the N-substituted products in moderate to high yields. The structures of the new heterocyclic compounds were confirmed by NMR spectroscopy and HRMS investigation.

Abstract
Amination of allylic alcohols is an effective approach in the facile synthesis of N-allylic alkylation or N-alkylation amines. Recently, a series of catalysts were devised to push forward this transformation. However, current synthetic methods are typically limited to achieve either N-allylic alkylation or N-alkylation products via a certain catalyst. In this article, a pH-mediated selective synthesis of N-allylic alkylation or N-alkylation amines with allylic alcohols via an iridium catalyst with water as the environmental benign solvent is revealed, enabling the miscellaneous synthesis of N-allylic alkylation and N-alkylation products in outstanding yields. Furthermore, a gram-scale experiment with low catalyst loading offers the potential to access a distinct entry for the synthesis of the antifungal drug naftifine.

Abstract
Allylation of nucleophiles with highly reactive electrophiles like allyl halides can be conducted without metal catalysts. Less reactive electrophiles, such as allyl esters and carbonates, usually require a transition metal catalyst to facilitate the allylation. Herein, we report a unique transition-metal-free allylation strategy with allyl ether electrophiles. Reaction of a host of allyl ethers with 2-azaallyl anions delivers valuable homoallylic amine derivatives (up to 92%), which are significant in the pharmaceutical industry. Interestingly, no deprotonative isomerization or cyclization of the products were observed. The potential synthetic utility and ease of operation is demonstrated by a gram scale telescoped preparation of a homoallylic amine. In addition, mechanistic studies provide insight into these C(sp3)-C(sp3) bond-forming reactions.

Abstract
The oxo-vanadium-catalyzed redox disproportionation of activated alcohols (oxidation-reductive coupling, Ox-RC) produces carbonyl compounds and hydrocarbon dimers. A mechanistic study of this novel reaction is reported herein. Following our initial disclosure, new findings include the following: (1) The [(salimin)VO2]--catalyzed Ox-RC of Ph2CHOH in the presence of fluorene affords the products of H-atom abstraction and all possible hydrocarbon dimers. (2) Electronic substituent effects on the relative rates of Ox-RC with respect to 4-X-BnOH reactants and Bu4N[(Y-salimin)VO2] catalysts (1a-c) reveal (a) a correlation of the oxidation rate of X-BnOH reactants with the radical σ parameter and (b) correlation of the oxidation rate for (Y-salimin)VO2- with the standard Hammett σ parameter. (3) The ease of electrochemical reduction of 1a-c is Y = NO2 > OMe > H. (4) Ambient 1H NMR studies of the interaction of 1 with alcohols suggest only a weak equilibrium association. (5) Density functional theory computational modeling of the Ox-RC reaction supports a ping-pong-type catalytic pathway, beginning with alcohol oxidation by (salimin)VO2-, preferably by stepwise-H-atom transfer from the alcohol to 1, affording the carbonyl product and the reduced (salimin)V(III)(OH)2-. The reduction half-reaction likely begins with condensation of the latter species with R2CHOH to give the alkoxide complex (salimin)V(OR)OH-; homolysis of the R···OV(III)(salimin) bond affords (salimin)V(IV)OH(O)- and the R-radical; the latter dimerizes and the former can disproportionate via H-transfer to reform catalyst (salimin)VO2- (1) and (salimin)V(OH)2-.
