Abstract
Differentiating between two highly similar C-H bonds in a given molecule remains a fundamental challenge in synthetic organic chemistry. Directing group assisted strategies for the functionalisation of proximal C-H bonds has been known for the last few decades. However, distal C-H bond functionalisation is strenuous and requires distinctly specialised techniques. In this review, we summarise the advancement in Pd-catalysed distal C(sp2)-H and C(sp3)-H bond activation through various redox manifolds including Pd(0)/Pd(II), Pd(II)/Pd(IV) and Pd(II)/Pd(0). Distal C-H functionalisation, where a Pd-catalyst is directly involved in the C-H activation step, either through assistance of an external directing group or directed by an inherent functionality or functional group incorporated at the site of the Pd-C bond is covered. The purpose of this review is to portray the current state of art in Pd-catalysed distal C(sp2)-H and C(sp3)-H functionalisation reactions, their mechanism and application in the late-stage functionalisation of medicinal compounds along with highlighting its limitations, thus leaving the field open for further synthetic adjustment.

Abstract
For transition-metal-catalyzed C-H functionalization, precise differentiation between remote adjacent C(sp2)-H bonds remains a long-standing challenge. Here, the template structure-directivity relationship on remote C-H functionalization of arenes was experimentally and computationally studied. By using geometry-tunable templates, Pd-catalyzed remote meta- and para-C-H activation of benzoic acids was achieved with high site selectivity.

Abstract
Achieving high para-selective C-H functionalized products of benzoic acid derivatives using a designed template is still a daunting challenge because the carbonyl group also could coordinate with metal to activate the ortho-C-H bond. Herein, we report the ligand promoted high para-selective C-H olefination of benzoic acid derivatives; we screened a series of ligands increasing the ratio of p:others from 62:38 to 96:4. This work may find application in the construction of para-substituted benzoic acid derivatives.

Abstract
Aromatic hydroxylation of benzoic acids (BzOH) to salicylates and phenolates is fundamentally interesting in industrial chemistry. However, key mechanistic uncertainties and dichotomies remain after decades of effort. Herein, the elusive mechanism of the competitive ortho-/ipso-hydroxylation of BzOH by H2O2 mediated by a nonheme iron(II) catalyst was comprehensively investigated using density functional theory calculations. Results revealed that the long-postulated FeV(O)(anti-BzO) oxidant is an FeIV(O)(anti-BzO•) species 2 (anti- and syn- are defined by the orientation of the carboxyl oxygen of BzO to the oxo), which rules out the noted two-oxidant mechanism proposed previously. We propose a new mechanism in which, following the formation of an FeV(O)(syn-BzO) species (3) and its electromer FeIV(O)(syn-BzO•) (3'), 3/3' either converts to salicylate and phenolate via intramolecular self-hydroxylation (route A) or acts as an oxidant to oxygenate another BzOH to generate the same products (route B). In route A, the rotation of the BzO group along the C-O bond forms 2, in which the BzO group is orientated by π-π stacking interactions. An electrophilic ipso-addition forms a phenolate by concomitant decarboxylation or an ortho-attack forms a cationic complex, which readily undergoes an NIH shift and a BzOH-assisted proton shift to form a salicylate. In route B, 3 oxidizes an additional BzOH molecule directed by hydrogen bonding and π-π stacking interactions. In both routes, selectivity is determined by the chemical property of the BzO ring. These mechanistic findings provide a clear mechanistic scenario and enrich the knowledge of hydroxylation of aromatic acids.

Abstract
The synthesis of macrocyclic compounds with different sizes and linkages remains a great challenge via transition metal-catalysed intramolecular C-H activation. Herein, we disclose an efficient macrocyclization strategy via Pd-catalysed remote meta-C-H olefination using a practical indolyl template. This approach was successfully employed to access macrolides and coumarins. In addition, the intermolecular meta-C-H olefination also worked well and was exemplified by the synthesis of antitumor drug belinostat from inexpensive and readily available benzenesulfonyl chloride. Notably, catalytic copper acetate and molecular oxygen were used in place of silver salts as oxidants. Furthermore, for the first time, the formation of a macrocyclophane cyclopalladated intermediate was detected through in situ Fourier-transform infrared monitoring experiments and ESI-MS.

Abstract
A novel Pd-catalysed oxidative coupling between benzoic acids and vinylarenes or acrylates to furnish isocoumarins and phthalides is reported. The reaction proceeds smoothly in molten tetrabutylammonium acetate via a selective C-H bond activation, with very low percentage of ligand-free palladium acetate as the catalyst, under atmospheric pressure of oxygen. Sub-stoichiometric amount of copper acetate is also required as a reoxidant for the palladium.

Abstract
The classic electrophilic bromination leads to ortho- and para-bromination of anilines due to their electron-rich properties. Herein we report the development of an unprecedented Pd-catalyzed meta-C-H bromination of aniline derivatives using commercially available N-bromophthalimide (NBP), which overcomes the competing ortho/para-selectivity of electrophilic bromination of anilines. The addition of acid additives is crucial for the success of this reaction. A broad range of substrates with various substitution patterns can be tolerated in this reaction. Moreover, benzoic acid derivatives bearing complex substitution patterns are also viable with this mild bromination reaction, and meta-C-H chlorination is also feasible under similar reaction conditions. The ease of the directing group removal and subsequent diverse transformations of the brominated products demonstrate the application potential of this method and promise new opportunities for drug discovery.

Abstract
Rhodium-catalyzed diverse tandem twofold C-H bond activation reactions of para-olefin-tethered arenes have been realized, with unsaturated reagents such as internal alkynes, dioxazolones, and isocyanates being the coupling partner as well as a relay directing group which triggers cyclization of the para-olefin group under oxidative or redox-neutral conditions. The reaction proceeded via initial ortho-C-H activation assisted by a built-in directing group in the arene, and the ortho-incorporation of the unsaturated coupling partner simultaneously generated a relay directing group that allows sequential C-H activation at the meta-position and subsequent cyclization of the para-olefins. The overall reaction represents C-C or N-C difunctionalization of the arene with the generation of diverse 2,3-dihydrobenzofuran platforms. The catalytic system proceeded with good efficiency, simple reaction conditions, and broad substrate scope. The diverse transformations of the products demonstrated the synthetic utility of this tandem reaction.

Abstract
Site-selective C-H alkynylation of arenes to produce aryl alkynes is a highly desirable transformation due to the prevalence of aryl alkynes in various natural products, drug molecules and in materials. To ensure site-selective C-H functionalization, directing group (DG) assisted C-H activation has been evolved as a useful synthetic tool. In contrast to DG-assisted ortho-C-H activation, distal meta-C-H activation is highly challenging and has attracted significant attention in recent years. However, developments are majorly focused on Pd-based catalytic systems. In order to diversify the scope of distal meta-C-H functionalization, herein we disclosed the first Rh(i) catalyzed meta-C-H alkynylation protocol through the inverse Sonogashira coupling reaction. The protocol is compatible with various substrate classes which include phenylacetic acids, hydrocinnamic acids, 2-phenyl benzoic acids, 2-phenyl phenols, benzyl sulfonates and ether-based scaffolds. The post-synthetic modification of meta-alkynylated arenes is also demonstrated through DG-removal as well as functional group interconversion.

Abstract
Functional group metathesis has the potential to render mild reaction conditions for C-H functionalization. Protocols for the meta- and ortho-C-H iodination of aniline derivatives via formal C(sp2)-H/C(sp2)-I metathesis using 2-nitrophenyl iodides as mild iodinating reagents are reported herein. These protocols led to the production of a range of valuable iodinated aniline derivatives. These results demonstrate the potential of developing novel site-selective C-H activation reactions with electron-rich compounds, since mild reagents can often been utilized in functional group metathesis reactions.

Abstract
A successful example of oxidative meta-dehydrogenative allylation of arenes with alkenes has been developed using Ru(PPh3)3Cl2 as a catalyst and DTBP as an oxidant. In the allylation process, pyrimidines, pyrazoles, and purines, found widely in nucleosides, were effective auxiliary groups. Gram-scale experiments took place smoothly under optimized conditions. Mechanistic studies indicated that ruthenium-catalyzed meta-dehydrogenative allylation was a free-radical process. The allylation process developed herein provides an efficient and practical strategy to prepare versatile meta-allylated arenes.

Abstract
Pd-catalysed C-H functionalisation of free carboxylic acids has drawn significant attention over the last few years due to the predominance of carboxylic acid moieties in pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. But their coordinating ability was overlooked and masked by exogenous directing groups for a long time. Even other crucial roles of carboxylic acids as additives and steric inducers that directly influence the mode of a reaction have been widely neglected. This review aims to embrace all of the diverse aspects of carboxylic acids except additive and steric effects by concisely and systematically describing their versatile role in Pd-catalysed proximal and distal C-H activation reactions that could be implemented in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries. In addition, the mechanistic perspectives along with several recent strategies developed in the last few years discussed here will serve as educational resources for future research.

Abstract
C-H activation has emerged as a powerful transformative synthetic tool to construct complex molecular frameworks, which are ubiquitous in natural products, medicines, dyes, polymers, and many more. However, reactivity and selectivity, arising from the inertness of C-H bonds and their overabundance in organic molecules, are the two major fundamental challenges in developing various carbon-carbon (C-C) and carbon-heteroatom (C-X) bond formation reactions via C-H activation technique. Functional groups with coordinating capacity to the transition metal catalysts, profoundly known as directing groups (DGs), have shown great promise in exerting selective C-H activation, often called site-selective or regioselective transformation of a target molecule. Advent of directing group (DG)-assisted strategies not only has resolved the selectivity issues but also offers a unique solution to the rapid synthesis of complex molecules in a convenient and predictable manner. Our laboratory, in this regard, is fascinated by the prospect of DG-assisted distal C-H functionalization of arenes, in which the target C-H bond is remotely located from the existing directing group. Notably, in opposition to proximal ortho-C-H activation, which proceeded via an energetically favorable five- to seven-membered metallacycle, distal C-H activation remained a formidable challenge as it required formation of a large macrocyclic metallacycle. Therefore, designing a suitable directing template that would maintain the required distance and geometric relationship between the target C-H bond and the appended directing auxiliary in order to ensure the prolific delivery of the metal catalyst to the closest proximity of targeted distal C-H bond was the key to success. In this regard, the Yu group devised an elegant "U-shaped" template for the first time to execute distal meta-C-H activation recruiting a cyano-based directing group. Our initial effort to diversify the scope of meta-C-H functionalization using a cyano-based template led us to realize that the "cyano-based DGs" are intrinsically limited with weak coordinating ability, competitive binding mode (end-on vs side-on), and incompatibility with acidic and basic reaction conditions. In search of a robust directing auxiliary, we were intrigued by the possibility of using the strongly coordinating ability of pyrimidine and quinoline-based DGs.In this Account, we describe our journey from the weakly coordinating cyano-based DG to the strongly coordinating pyrimidine-based DG to achieve diverse meta-C-H functionalization of electronically and sterically unbiased arenes. While some of the functionalizations were achieved by finding suitable reaction conditions, others were led by mechanistic understanding. Notably, initial development in this realm was constrained with short linkers, in which the DG was attached to the arene of interest through 2-4 atoms. In later studies, we demonstrated that the selective meta-C-H activation can be attained even though the DG is 10-atoms away from the targeted arene. More importantly, a transient DG was successfully utilized to deliver meta-C-H olefination of arenes via in situ imine formation, which provided a step-economic route to meta-C-H activation.We hope that this Account will stimulate further template design and will provide a guiding platform for the future development of distal meta-C-H functionalization.

Abstract
Transition metal catalyzed C-H activation has developed a contemporary approach to the omnipresent area of retrosynthetic disconnection. Scientific researchers have been tempted to take the help of this methodology to plan their synthetic discourses. This paradigm shift has helped in the development of industrial units as well, making the synthesis of natural products and pharmaceutical drugs step-economical. In the vast zone of C-H bond activation, the functionalization of proximal C-H bonds has gained utmost popularity. Unlike the activation of proximal C-H bonds, the distal C-H functionalization is more strenuous and requires distinctly specialized techniques. In this review, we have compiled various methods adopted to functionalize distal C-H bonds, mechanistic insights within each of these procedures, and the scope of the methodology. With this review, we give a complete overview of the expeditious progress the distal C-H activation has made in the field of synthetic organic chemistry while also highlighting its pitfalls, thus leaving the field open for further synthetic modifications.

Abstract
The mechanism of Pd(II)-catalyzed meta-C-H bond olefination of arenes with a carboxyl directing group (DG)-containing template has been investigated with density functional theory. The reaction includes three major steps: C-H bond activation, alkene insertion, and β-hydride elimination. The C-H activation step, which proceeds via a concerted metalation-deprotonation pathway, is found to be the rate- and regioselectivity-determining step. We proposed a mono-N-protected amino acid (MPAA)/DG-assisted C-H activation model, in which the carboxyl DG coordinates with the Pd center and delivers it to the meta-position of arene, and the bidentate dianionic MPAA acts as a base for deprotonation. There is a hydrogen bonding interaction between the carboxyl DG and the carboxylate group of MPAA. An alternative Pd(OAc)2-catalyzed mechanism without involvement of MPAA is also operative. The template is conformationally flexible, and multiple low-energy transition-state conformations contribute to the regioselectivity.

Abstract
Among numerous solvents available for chemical transformations, 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoro-2-propanol (popularly known as HFIP) has attracted enough attention of the scientific community in recent years. Several unique features of HFIP compared to its non-fluoro analogue isopropanol have helped this solvent to make a difference in various subdomains of organic chemistry. One such area is transition metal-catalyzed C-H bond functionalization reactions. While, on one side, HFIP is emerging as a green and sustainable deep eutectic solvent (DES), on the other side, a major proportion of Pd-catalyzed C-H functionalization is heavily relying on this solvent. In particular, for distal aromatic C-H functionalizations, the exceptional impact of HFIP to elevate the yield and selectivity has made this solvent irreplaceable. Recent research studies have also highlighted the H-bond-donating ability of HFIP to enhance the chiral induction in Pd-catalyzed atroposelective C-H activation. This perspective aims to portray different shades of HFIP as a magical solvent in Pd-catalyzed C-H functionalization reactions.

Abstract
Direct para-selective C-H functionalization of arenes remains a daunting challenge and is still significantly restricted to a few scaffolds. Herein, we report an unprecedented pyridine-based para-directing template (DT) assisted, Pd-catalyzed para-C-H alkenylation of three classes of arenes, i.e. phenylpropanoic acids, 2-phenyl benzoic acids and benzyl alcohols, with a series of alkenes including perfluoroalkenes. Notably, the pyridine-based para-DT could be easily synthesized and readily recycled under mild conditions. These results may find application in rapid construction of para-substituted arenes and stimulate the exploration of novel methods for para-C-H functionalization of arenes.

Abstract
Transition metal-catalysed functionalizations of inert C-H bonds to construct C-C bonds represent an ideal route in the synthesis of valuable organic molecules. Fine tuning of directing groups, catalysts and ligands has played a crucial role in selective C-H bond (sp2 or sp3) activation. Recent developments in these areas have assured a high level of regioselectivity in C-H olefination reactions. In this review, we have summarized the recent progress in the oxidative olefination of sp2 and sp3 C-H bonds with special emphasis on distal, atroposelective, non-directed sp2 and directed sp3 C-H olefination. The scope, limitation, and mechanism of various transition metal-catalysed olefination reactions have been described briefly.

Abstract
A protocol of carboxyl-group-assisted, Pd(II)-catalyzed remote meta-C(sp2)-H olefination and arylation of benzylsulfonamides has been developed. It was supposed to proceed through a κ2 coordination of the carboxyl group to the Pd center. These findings demonstrated the versatility of carboxyl-assisted remote meta-C-H activation strategy and might stimulate the exploration of novel reactivity and selectivity of other traditional chelating groups in different contexts.

Abstract
Controllable direct C-H arylation with high regioselectivity is highly desirable yet remains a formidable challenge. Herein, a facile regioselective direct C-H arylation is developed for efficient construction of a variety of symmetrical dithienophthalimide-based π-conjugated molecules. The resulting methodology is applicable to a wide range of substrates, from electron-rich units to electron-deficient units with large steric end groups. Aryl halides have been confirmed to be able to couple with dithienophthalimide (DTI) via direct C-H arylation, showing high regioselectivity. Varying the functional end groups onto the DTI core has been demonstrated to fine tune the emission colors to cover most of the visible spectra. The results suggest a facile strategy towards highly selective direct C-H arylation, opening the prospects towards efficient construction of π-conjugated molecules for various potential optoelectronic applications.

Abstract
Biaryl compounds are extremely important structural motifs in natural products, biologically active components and pharmaceuticals. Selective synthesis of biaryls by distinguishing the subtle reactivity difference of distal arene C-H bonds are significantly challenging. Herein, we describe para-selective C-H arylation, which is acheived by a unique combination of a meta-directing group and norbornene as a transient mediator. Upon direct meta-C-H palladation, one-bond relay palladation occurs in presence of norbornene and subsequently para-C-H arylation is achieved for sulfonates, phosphonates and phenols bearing 2,6-disubstitution patterns. The protocol is amenable to electron-deficient aryl iodides. Multisubstituted arenes and phenols are obtained by postsynthetic modification of the products. The protocol allows the synthesis of hexa-substituted benzene by sequential selective distal C-H functionalization.

Abstract
The horizon of ultrasound-assistance has been expanded to palladium-catalyzed distal C-H functionalization of arenes. Compared to thermal conditions, operationally simple ultrasound mediated distal C-H functionalization occurred with a shorter reaction time and enhanced reactivity of reactants to give superior yields with improved selectivity both in terms of meta:others and mono:di. A wide variety of meta-functionalizations such as olefination, alkylation, acetoxylation, allylation and cyanation were successfully carried out under ambient temperature.

Abstract
The significance of site selective functionalization stands upon the superior selectivity, easy synthesis and diverse product utility. In this work, we demonstrate the para-selective introduction of versatile nitrile moiety, enabled by a detachable and reusable H-bonded auxiliary. The methodology holds its efficiency irrespective of substrate electronic bias. The conspicuous shift in the step energetics was probed by both experimental and computational mechanistic tools, which heralds the inception of para-deuteration. The synthetic impact of the methodology was highlighted with reusability of directing group and post synthetic modifications.

Abstract
Asymmetric hydrogenation of α,β-unsaturated acids catalyzed by noble metals has been well established, whereas, the asymmetric hydrogenation with earth-abundant-metal was rarely reported. Here, we describe a cobalt-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids. By using chiral cobalt catalyst bearing electron-donating diphosphine ligand, high activity (up to 1860 TON) and excellent enantioselectivity (up to >99% ee) are observed. Furthermore, the cobalt-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation is successfully applied to a broad spectrum of α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids, such as various α-aryl and α-alkyl cinnamic acid derivatives, α-oxy-functionalized α,β-unsaturated acids, α-substituted acrylic acids and heterocyclic α,β-unsaturated acids (30 examples). The synthetic utility of the protocol is highlighted by the synthesis of key intermediates for chiral drugs (6 cases). Preliminary mechanistic studies reveal that the carboxy group may be involved in the control of the reactivity and enantioselectivity through an interaction with the metal centre. A large number of marketed drugs contains a chiral carboxylic acid scaffold. Here, the authors report the asymmetric hydrogenation of α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids to α-chiral carboxylic acids using a cobalt catalyst bearing an electron-donating chiral diphosphine ligand.

Abstract
The ability to differentiate between highly similar C-H bonds in a given molecule remains a fundamental challenge in organic chemistry. In particular, the lack of sufficient steric and electronic differences between C-H bonds located distal to functional groups has prevented the development of site-selective catalysts with broad scope. An emerging approach to circumvent this obstacle is to utilize the distance between a target C-H bond and a coordinating functional group, along with the geometry of the cyclic transition state in directed C-H activation, as core molecular recognition parameters to differentiate between multiple C-H bonds. In this Perspective, we discuss the advent and recent advances of this concept. We cover a wide range of transition-metal-catalyzed, template-directed remote C-H activation reactions of alcohols, carboxylic acids, sulfonates, phosphonates, and amines. Additionally, we review eminent examples which take advantage of non-covalent interactions to achieve regiocontrol. Continued advancement of this distance- and geometry-based differentiation approach for regioselective remote C-H functionalization reactions may lead to the ultimate realization of molecular editing: the freedom to modify organic molecules at any site, in any order.

Abstract
Aryl carboxylic acids are stable and readily available in great structural diversity both from natural and well-established synthetic procedures, which make them promising starting materials in organic synthesis. The conversion of benzoic acids into high-value molecules is of great importance and have gained much interest of synthetic chemists. The recent development of single-electron (1e−) activation strategy has been esteemed as a complementary method for the transformation of benzoic acids. In this context, carboxylate groups can be selectively transferred into reactive aryl carboxylic radical, aryl radical, and acyl radical by electrocatalysis, photocatalysis, or in the presence of some SET oxidants. Based on these radical species, remarkable advancements have been achieved for the rapid formation of various chemical bonds over the past 10 years. In this review, we summarize recent advances in single electron activation of aryl carboxylic acids, with an emphasis on reaction scope, catalytic system, limitation, and underlying reaction mechanism.

Abstract
Biphenylcarboxylic acid with two competing C(sp2)-H sites was designed for site selective C(sp2)-H functionalization by developing carboxylic acids assisted remote and selective olefination via 7-membered palladacycle. Mechanism investigation and DFT calculations reveal a kinetics-determined process, which could be utilized to explore a variety of remote site selectivity. The practicability of this method was highlighted by the precise construction of phenathrene under sequential site selectivity.

Abstract
Being able to utilize a protecting group to influence remote regiocontrol offers a simple alternative approach to direct late-stage functionalization of complex organic molecules. However, protecting groups that have the ability to influence reaction regioselectivity remote to their local chemical environment are not widely reported in the literature. Herein, we report the development of remote regioselective electrophilic aromatic substitution (SEAr) reactions that are enabled via the application of the tetrafluoropyridyl (TFP) phenol-protecting group. We demonstrate that through sequential reactions and protection/deprotection of the TFP group, substitution patterns that do not conform to classical SEAr regioselectivity rules can be readily accessed.
