Abstract
This paper reports a direct α-(hetero)arylation of acrylamides through an inverse electron-demand nucleophilic addition, specifically an anti-Michael-type addition. The introduction of a quinolyl directing group facilitates the nucleophilic addition of (hetero)arenes to the α-position of acrylamides. The quinolyl directing group effectively suppresses undesired β-hydrogen elimination and is removable for subsequent derivatization. The presented method provides an atom economical synthesis of α-(hetero)arylamide with a high degree of functional group tolerance.

Abstract
1,1,1,3,3,3-Hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP) is a polar, strongly hydrogen bond-donating solvent that has found numerous uses in organic synthesis due to its ability to stabilize ionic species, transfer protons, and engage in a range of other intermolecular interactions. The use of this solvent has exponentially increased in the past decade and has become a solvent of choice in some areas, such as C-H functionalization chemistry. In this review, following a brief history of HFIP in organic synthesis and an overview of its physical properties, literature examples of organic reactions using HFIP as a solvent or an additive are presented, emphasizing the effect of solvent of each reaction.

Abstract
A unique decarbonylation of an amino acid derivative catalytic system has been established via palladium-catalyzed C-C bond and C-N bond dual activations. By employing 8-aminoquinoline as the directing group, this transformation has been found to facilitate the high chemoselectivity to decarbonylation of amino acid derivatives rather than intramolecular deamination or cross-dehydrogenative coupling reactions. This method provides a straightforward avenue for constructing diverse functionalized amide compounds in good to excellent yields. We proposed a possible reaction pathway that may go through the C-C bond and C-N bond dual activations on the basis of the mechanistic studies.

Abstract
The indoxyl unit is a common structural motif in alkaloid natural products and bioactive compounds. Here, we report a general method that transforms readily available 2-substituted indoles into 2,2-disubstituted indoxyls via nucleophile coupling with a 2-alkoxyindoxyl intermediate and showcase its utility in short total syntheses of the alkaloids brevianamide A (7 steps) and trigonoliimine C (6 steps). The developed method is operationally simple and demonstrates broad scope in terms of nucleophile identity and indole substitution, tolerating 2-alkyl substituents and free indole N-H groups, elements beyond the scope of most prior approaches. Spirocyclic indoxyl products are also accessible via intramolecular nucleophilic trapping.

Abstract
AbstractAcrylamides are versatile building blocks that are easily obtained from readily available starting materials. During the last 20 years, these valuable substrates bearing a nucleophilic nitrogen atom and an electrophilic double bond have proven to be efficient domino partners, leading to a wide variety of complex aza-heterocycles of synthetic relevance. In this non-exhaustive review, metal-free and metal-triggered reactions followed by an annulation will be presented; these two approaches allow good modulation of the reactivity of the polyvalent acrylamides.1 Introduction2 Metal-Free Annulations2.1 Domino Reactions Triggered by a Michael Addition2.2 Domino Reactions Triggered by an Aza-Michael Addition2.3 Domino Processes Triggered by an Acylation Reaction2.4 Domino Reactions Triggered by a Baylis–Hillman Reaction2.5 Cycloadditions and Domino Reactions2.6 Miscellaneous Domino Reactions3 Metal-Triggered/Mediated Annulations3.1 Zinc-Promoted Transformations3.2 Rhodium-Catalyzed Functionalization/Annulation Cascades3.3 Cobalt-Catalyzed Functionalization/Annulation Cascades3.4 Ruthenium-Catalyzed Functionalization/Annulation Cascades3.5 Iron-Catalyzed Functionalization/Annulation Cascades3.6 Palladium-Catalyzed Functionalization/Annulation Cascades3.7 Copper-Catalyzed Transformations3.8 Transition Metals Acting in Tandem in Domino Processes4 Radical Cascade Reactions5 Conclusion

Abstract
The use of directing groups allows high levels of selectivity to be achieved in transition metal-catalyzed transformations. Efficient removal of these auxiliaries after successful functionalization, however, can be very challenging. This review provides a critical overview of strategies used for removal of Daugulis' 8-aminoquinoline (2005-2020), one of the most widely used N,N-bidentate directing groups. The limitations of these strategies are discussed and alternative approaches are suggested for challenging substrates. Our aim is to provide a comprehensive end-users' guide for chemists in academia and industry who want to harness the synthetic power of directing groups-and be able to remove them from their final products.
