Abstract
Transition-metal-catalyzed enantioselective nitrene transfer to sulfides has emerged as one of the most powerful strategies for rapid construction of enantioenriched sulfimides. However, achieving stereocontrol over highly active earth-abundant transition-metal nitrenoid intermediates remains a formidable challenge compared with precious metals. Herein, we disclose a chiral iron(II)/N,N'-dioxide-catalyzed enantioselective imidation of dialkyl and alkyl aryl sulfides using iminoiodinanes as nitrene precursors. A series of chiral sulfimides were obtained in moderate-to-good yields with high enantioselectivities (56 examples, up to 99% yield, 98:2 e.r.). The utility of this methodology was demonstrated by late-stage modification of complex molecules and synthesis of the chiral insecticide sulfoxaflor and the intermediates of related bioactive compounds. Based on experimental studies and theoretical calculations, a water-bonded high-spin iron nitrenoid species was identified as the key intermediate. The observed stereoselectivity was original from the steric repulsion between the amide unit of the ligand in the chiral cave and the bulky substituent of sulfides. Additionally, dioxazolones proved to be suitable acylnitrene precursors in the presence of an iron(III)/N,N'-dioxide complex, resulting in the formation of enantioselectivity-reversed sulfimides (14 examples, up to 81% yield, 97:3 e.r.).

Abstract
An iron/chromium system (Fe(OAc)2, CpCr(CO)3H) catalyzes the preparation of β,γ- or γ,δ-unsaturated amides from 1,4,2-dioxazol-5-ones. An acyl nitrenoid iron complex seems likely to be responsible for C-H activation. A cascade of three H• transfer steps appears to be involved: (i) the abstraction of H• from a remote C-H bond by the nitrenoid N, (ii) the transfer of H• from Cr to N, and (iii) the abstraction of H• from a radical substituent by the Cr•. The observed kinetic isotope effects are consistent with the proposed mechanism if nitrenoid formation is the rate-determining step. The Fe/Cr catalysts can also desaturate substituted 1,4,2-dioxazol-5-ones to 3,5-dienamides.

Abstract
Unsaturated amides represent common functional groups found in natural products and bioactive molecules and serve as versatile synthetic building blocks. Here, we report an iron(II)/cobalt(II) dual catalytic system for the syntheses of distally unsaturated amide derivatives. The transformation proceeds through an iron nitrenoid-mediated 1,5-hydrogen atom transfer (1,5-HAT) mechanism. Subsequently, the radical intermediate undergoes hydrogen atom abstraction from vicinal methylene by a cobaloxime catalyst, efficiently yielding β,γ- or γ,δ-unsaturated amide derivatives under mild conditions. The efficiency of Co-mediated HAT can be tuned by varying different auxiliaries, highlighting the generality of this protocol. Remarkably, this desaturation protocol is also amenable to practical scalability, enabling the synthesis of unsaturated carbamates and ureas, which can be readily converted into various valuable molecules.

Abstract
Herein, we report that bulky alkylphosphines such as PtBu3 can switch the roles from actor to spectator ligands to promote the FeCl2 -catalyzed N-amidation reaction of arylamines with dioxazolones, giving hydrazides in high efficiency and chemoselectivity. Mechanistic studies indicated that the phosphine ligands could facilitate the decarboxylation of dioxazolones on the Fe center, and the hydrogen bonding interactions between the arylamines and the ligands on Fe nitrenoid intermediates might play a role in modulating the delicate interplay between the phosphine ligand, arylamine, and acyl nitrene N, favoring N-N coupling over N-P coupling. The new ligand-promoted N-amidation protocols offer a convenient way to access various challenging triazane compounds via double or sequential N-amidation of primary arylamines.

Abstract
Lactam rings are found in many biologically active natural products and pharmaceuticals, including important classes of antibiotics. Methods for the asymmetric synthesis of these molecules are therefore highly desirable, particularly through the selective functionalization of unreactive aliphatic C-H bonds. Here we show the development of a strategy for the asymmetric synthesis of β-, γ-, and δ-lactams via hemoprotein-catalysed intramolecular C-H amidation reaction with readily available dioxazolone reagents. Engineered myoglobin variants serve as excellent biocatalysts for this transformation yielding the desired lactam products in high yields, high enantioselectivity, and on preparative scale. Mechanistic and computational studies elucidate the nature of the C-H amination and enantiodetermining steps and provide insights into protein-mediated control of regioselectivity and stereoselectivity. Additionally, an alkaloid natural product and a drug molecule were synthesized chemoenzymatically in much fewer steps (7-8 vs. 11-12) than previously reported, further demonstrating the power of biosynthetic strategy for the preparation of complex bioactive molecules.

Abstract
Harnessing the key intermediates in metal-catalyzed reactions is one of the most essential strategies in the development of selective organic transformations. The nitrogen group transfer reactivity of metal-nitrenoids to ubiquitous C-H bonds allows for diverse C-N bond formation to furnish synthetically valuable aminated products. In this study, we present an unprecedented reactivity of iridium and ruthenium nitrenoids to generate remote carbocation intermediates, which subsequently undergo nucleophile incorporation, thus developing a formal γ-C-H functionalization of carboxylic acids. Mechanistic investigations elucidated a unique singlet metal-nitrenoid reactivity to initiate an abstraction of γ-hydride to form the carbocation intermediate that eventually reacts with a broad range of carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen nucleophiles, as well as biorelevant molecules. Alternatively, the same intermediate can lead to deprotonation to afford β,γ-unsaturated amides in a less nucleophilic solvent.

Abstract
The use of iron as a core metal in catalysis has become a research topic of interest over the last few decades. The reasons are clear. Iron is the most abundant transition metal on Earth's crust and it is widely distributed across the world. It has been extracted and processed since the dawn of civilization. All these features render iron a noncontaminant, biocompatible, nontoxic, and inexpensive metal and therefore it constitutes the perfect candidate to replace noble metals (rhodium, palladium, platinum, iridium, etc.). Moreover, direct C-H functionalization is one of the most efficient strategies by which to introduce new functional groups into small organic molecules. The majority of organic compounds contain C(sp3 )-H bonds. Given the enormous importance of organic molecules in so many aspects of existence, the utilization and bioactivity of C(sp3 )-H bonds are of the utmost importance. This review sheds light on the substrate scope, selectivity, benefits, and limitations of iron catalysts for direct C(sp3 )-H bond activations. An overview of the use of iron catalysis in C(sp3 )-H activation protocols is summarized herein up to 2022.

The one-step method tolerates a wide range of sulfinamides with various substituents under solvent-free ambient conditions. Compared to its solution-phase counterpart, this mechanochemical approach shows better conversion and chemoselectivity. Mechanistic investigations by ESI-MS revealed the generation of crucial nitrene iron intermediates.

Abstract
We herein report the iridium-catalyzed enantioselective C-H borylation of aryl chlorides. A variety of prochiral biaryl compounds could be well-tolerated, affording a vast array of axially chiral biaryls with high enantioselectivities. The current method exhibits a high turnover number (TON) of 7000, which represents the highest in functional-group-directed asymmetric C-H activation. The high TON was attributed to a weak catalyst-substrate interaction that was caused by mismatched chirality between catalyst and substrate. We also demonstrated the synthetic application of the current method by C-B, ortho-C-H, and C-Cl bond functionalization, including programmed Suzuki-Miyaura coupling for the synthesis of axially chiral polyarenes.

Abstract
Metalloradical catalysis (MRC) exploits the metal-centred radicals present in open-shell metal complexes as one-electron catalysts for the generation of metal-stabilized organic radicals-key intermediates that control subsequent one-electron homolytic reactions. Cobalt(II) complexes of porphyrins, as stable 15e-metalloradicals with a well-defined low-spin d7 configuration, have dominated the ongoing development of MRC. Here, to broaden MRC beyond the use of Co(II)-based metalloradical catalysts, we describe systematic studies that establish the operation of Fe(III)-based MRC and demonstrate an initial application for asymmetric radical transformations. Specifically, we report that five-coordinate iron(III) complexes of porphyrins with an axial ligand, which represent another family of stable 15e-metalloradicals with a d5 configuration, are potent metalloradical catalysts for olefin cyclopropanation with different classes of diazo compounds via a stepwise radical mechanism. This work lays a foundation and mechanistic blueprint for future exploration of Fe(III)-based MRC towards the discovery of diverse stereoselective radical reactions.

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2023:e202311749. [PMID: 37815099 DOI: 10.1002/anie.202311749] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/12/2023] [Revised: 10/02/2023] [Accepted: 10/03/2023] [Indexed: 10/11/2023]
Abstract
Here we report the use of a base metal complex [(tBu pyrpyrr2 )Fe(OEt2 )] (1-OEt2 ) (tBu pyrpyrr2 2- =3,5-tBu2 -bis(pyrrolyl)pyridine) as a catalyst for intermolecular amination of Csp3 -H bonds of 9,10-dihydroanthracene (2 a) using 2,4,6-trimethyl phenyl azide (3 a) as the nitrene source. The reaction is complete within one hour at 80 °C using as low as 2 mol % 1-OEt2 with control in selectivity for single C-H amination versus double C-H amination. Catalytic C-H amination reactions can be extended to other substrates such as cyclohexadiene and xanthene derivatives and can tolerate a variety of aryl azides having methyl groups in both ortho positions. Under stoichiometric conditions the imido radical species [(tBu pyrpyrr2 )Fe{=N(2,6-Me2 -4-tBu-C6 H2 )] (1-imido) can be isolated in 56 % yield, and spectroscopic, magnetometric, and computational studies confirmed it to be an S = 1 FeIV complex. Complex 1-imido reacts with 2 a to produce the ferrous aniline adduct [(tBu pyrpyrr2 )Fe{NH(2,6-Me2 -4-tBu-C6 H2 )(C14 H11 )}] (1-aniline) in 45 % yield. Lastly, it was found that complexes 1-imido and 1-aniline are both competent intermediates in catalytic intermolecular C-H amination.

Abstract
Enantioselective C-H amidation offers attractive means to assemble C-N bonds to synthesize high-added value, nitrogen-containing molecules. In recent decades, complementary enzymatic and homogeneous-catalytic strategies for C-H amidation have been reported. Herein, we report on an artificial metalloenzyme (ArM) resulting from anchoring a biotinylated Ir-complex within streptavidin (Sav). The resulting ArM catalyzes the enantioselective amidation of unactivated C(sp3)-H bonds. Chemogenetic optimization of the Ir cofactor and Sav led to significant improvement in both the activity and enantioselectivity. Up to >700 TON and 92% ee for the amidation of unactivated C(sp3)-H bonds was achieved. The single crystal X-ray analysis of the artificial nitrene insertase (ANIase) combined with quantum mechanics-molecular mechanics (QM-MM) calculations sheds light on critical second coordination sphere contacts leading to improved catalytic performance.

Abstract
A catalytic system for intramolecular C(sp2)-H and C(sp3)-H amination of substituted tetrazolopyridines has been successfully developed. The amination reactions are developed using an iron-porphyrin based catalytic system. It has been demonstrated that the same iron-porphyrin based catalytic system efficiently activates both the C(sp2)-H and C(sp3)-H bonds of the tetrazole as well as azide-featuring substrates with a high level of regioselectivity. The method exhibited an excellent functional group tolerance. The method affords three different classes of high-value N-heterocyclic scaffolds. A number of important late-stage C-H aminations have been performed to access important classes of molecules. Detailed studies (experimental and computational) showed that both the C(sp2)-H and C(sp3)-H amination reactions involve a metalloradical activation mechanism, which is different from the previously reported electro-cyclization mechanism. Collectively, this study reports the discovery of a new class of metalloradical activation modes using a base metal catalyst that should find wide application in the context of medicinal chemistry, drug discovery and industrial applications.

Abstract
Herein, an unprecedented non-noble-metal-catalyzed oxidation/cyclization of ene-ynamides is developed, allowing the synthesis of diversely functionalized lactams in moderate to good yields with excellent diastereoselectivities without the observation of typical cyclopropanation products. In combination with Ellman's tert-butylsulfinimine chemistry, chiral γ-lactams containing three contiguous stereocenters are obtained with high diastereo- and enantioselectivity. Moreover, density functional theory (DFT) calculations indicate that this protocol probably undergoes a carbon cation or proton transfer process.

Abstract
We herein report a modular strategy, which enables Rh(III)-catalyzed diastereoselective 3,4-amino oxygenation and diamination of 1,3-dienes using different O- and N-nucleophiles in combination with readily available 3-substituted 1,4,2-dioxazolones (78 examples, 37-91% yield). Previous attempts to functionalize the internal double bond rested on the use of plain alcoholic solvents as nucleophilic coupling partners thus dramatically limiting the scope of this transformation. We have now identified hexafluoroisopropanol as a non-nucleophilic solvent which allows the use of diverse nucleophiles and greatly expands the scope, including an unprecedented amino hydroxylation to selectively install valuable, unprotected β-amino alcohols across 1,3-dienes. Moreover, various elaborate alcohols prove to be compatible providing unique access to complex organic molecules. Finally, this method is employed in a series of intramolecular reactions to deliver valuable nitrogen heterocycles as well as γ- and δ-lactones.

Abstract
In a ball mill, FeBr3 -catalyzed intramolecular amidations lead to 3,4-dihydro-2(1H)-quinolinones in good to almost quantitative yields. The reactions do not require a solvent and are easy to perform. No additional ligand is needed for the iron catalyst. Both 4-substituted aryl and β-substituted dioxazolones provide products with high selectivity. Mechanistically, an electrophilic spirocyclization followed by C-C migration explains the formation of rearranged products.

Abstract
Intramolecular alkyne hydroamidation represents a straightforward approach for the access to synthetically valuable cyclic enamides. Despite some advances made in this realm, the ability to attain a precise regiocontrol still remains challenging, especially for endo cyclization that leads to six-membered and larger azacyclic rings. Herein, we report a NiH-catalyzed intramolecular hydroamidation of alkynyl dioxazolones that allows for an excellent endo selectivity, thus affording a range of six- to eight-membered endocyclic enamides with a broad scope. Mechanistic investigations revealed that Ni(I) catalysis is operative in the current system, proceeding via regioselective syn-hydronickelation, alkenylnickel E/Z isomerization, and Ni-centered inner-sphere nitrenoid transfer. In particular, the key alkenylnickel isomerization step, which previously lacked mechanistic understandings, was found to take place through the η2-vinyl transition state. The synthetic value of this protocol was demonstrated by diastereoselective modifications of the obtained endocyclic enamides to highly functionalized δ-lactam scaffolds.

Abstract
Herein, we report the development of an iron-catalyzed olefin oxyamidation by utilizing tethered dioxazolones as the nitrenoid precursor to produce valuable β-lactam scaffolds. Mechanistic studies revealed that a relatively strong π-accepting ability of the phthalocyanine ligand is critical in generating the key triplet iron-imidyl radical intermediate to enable the 4-exo-trig-lactamization with the incorporation of oxygen nucleophiles in high diastereoselectivity. This cyclization approach was readily extended to the highly efficient γ-lactam synthesis (TON > 300).

Abstract
Many synthetic methods that use fluorinated alcohols as solvents have been reported, and the fluorinated alcohols have been found to be crucial to the success of these methods. In addition, there have been reports indicating that adding a weakly coordinated fluorine-containing anion, such as BF4-, PF6-, or SbF6-, to fluorinated alcohols can improve yields. The boosting effect of fluorinated alcohols is attributed mainly to hydrogen bond activation. A few studies have suggested that the very polar fluorinated alcohols can stabilize cationic reaction intermediates. However, how they do so and why weakly coordinated fluorine-containing anions improve yields have not been studied in depth. Here, we used quaternary ammonium cations, a quaternary phosphonium cation, and a triaryl-substituted carbocation as models for short-lived cationic intermediates and studied the possible interactions of these cations with fluorinated alcohols and BF4-, PF6-, or SbF6-. On the basis of the results, we propose that the C-F dipoles of fluorinated alcohols and the E-F dipoles (where E is B, P, or Sb) of weakly coordinated fluorine-containing anions stabilized these cations by intermolecular charge-dipole interactions. We deduced that in the same fashion the C-F and E-F dipoles can thermodynamically stabilize cationic reaction intermediates.

Abstract
γ-Lactams form important structural cores of a range of medicinally relevant natural products and clinical drugs, principal examples being the new generation of immunomodulatory imide drugs (IMiDs) and the brivaracetam family. Compared to conventional multistep synthesis, an intramolecular γ-C-H amination of aliphatic amides would allow for the direct construction of valuable γ-lactam motifs from abundant amino acid precursors. Herein we report a novel 2-pyridone ligand enabled Pd(II)-catalyzed γ-C(sp3)-H lactamization of amino acid derived native amides, providing the convenient synthesis of γ-lactams, isoindolinones, and 2-imidazolidinones. C6-Substitution of the 2-pyridone ligand is crucial for the lactam formation. This protocol features the use of N-acyl amino acids, which serve as both the directing group and cyclization partner, practical and environmentally benign tert-butyl hydrogen peroxide (TBHP) as the sole bystanding oxidant, and a broad substrate scope. The utility of this protocol was demonstrated through the two-step syntheses of a lenalidomide analog and brivaracetam from readily available carboxylic acids and amino acids.

Abstract
The pursuit for the discovery of new and powerful synthetic methods to access high-value N-heterocycles has been at the forefront of organic chemistry research for more than a century. Considering the importance of N-scaffolds in modern science, over the past few decades, great research efforts have been made to develop efficient synthetic methods for the construction of nitrogen-rich molecules. Among many efforts, transition metal catalyzed denitrogenative annulation reaction has emerged as a cornerstone due to its innate versatility and wider scope of application.The denitrogenative annulation approach offers clear advantages over many existing methods, as it enables effective, single-step interconversion of easily available feedstocks into a variety of other important N-containing heterocyclic frameworks. Recently, transition metal catalyzed denitrogenative annulation reaction of the 1,2,3-triazole via a metal carbene intermediate sparked significant interest in the application of various important heterocycle syntheses. Denitrogenative annulation reaction of 1,2,3-triazoles proceeds via an ionic mechanism. Recently, we demonstrated a new concept for the denitrogenative reaction of triazoles with alkenes and alkynes via in situ generated 2-(diazomethyl)pyridines. The method takes advantage of the inherent properties of a Co(III)-carbene radical intermediate and is the first report of the denitrogenative annulation/cyclopropanation by a radical-activation mechanism.On the other hand, in contrast to the denitrogenative annulation of 1,2,3-triazole, annulation reaction of 1,2,3,4-tetrazole (a surrogate of azide having an important pyridyl unit) via metal nitrene remains a big challenge. Previously, flash vacuum pyrolysis studies had been used for nitrene-nitrene rearrangement of 1,2,3,4-tetrazole at high temperature. This Account summarizes our recent efforts in developing transition metal catalyzed denitrogenative annulation of 1,2,3-triazoles via a radical mechanism and 1,2,3,4-tetrazoles via metal nitrene to access important nitrogen-rich molecules. We demonstrated that the 1,2,3,4-tetrazole under Ir-catalyzed reaction conditions can produce a productive Ir-nitrene intermediate that can successfully be employed for the construction of a wide number of α-carbolines and 7-azaindoles. Moreover, we developed an iron-based unique strategy for the intermolecular denitrogenative annulation reaction between tetrazoles and alkynes. The reaction overcomes the traditional click reaction and proceeds via an unprecedented metalloradical activation mechanism. Furthermore, we used our understanding of tetrazole reactivity to design an iron-catalyzed intramolecular denitrogenative C(sp3)-H amination reaction of primary, secondary, and tertiary centers by using a metalloradical activation concept. At the same time, we also developed a general catalytic method to enable two distinct reactions (1,3-cycloaddition and denitrogenative annulation) using Mn(TPP)Cl that afforded two different classes of nitrogen heterocycles. Mechanistic studies showed that although the click reaction likely proceeds through an ionic mechanism and the denitrogenative annulation reaction likely proceeds via an electrophilic metallonitrene intermediate rather than a metallonitrene radical intermediate. Finally, we report an iron-catalyzed rearrangement reaction (ring expansion/migration) that proceeded with an unprecedented level of selectivity, reactivity, and functional group tolerance offering rapid access to numerous complex N-heterocycles. We believe that our continuous efforts in this field would be beneficial for pharmaceutical industries, drug discovery, and other fields of medicinal chemistry.

Abstract
The mechanism and site-selectivity for Fe-catalyzed azaindoline formation from 1,2,3,4-tetrazole were examined computationally. The H-atom abstraction/radical rebound stepwise mechanism is proposed. The aliphatic H-atom abstraction (HAA) vs. electrophilic aromatic substitution (EAS) steps are responsible for the sp3vs. sp2 C-H amination site-selectivity and a larger steric congestion disfavors sp2 EAS, thus resulting in Fe-catalyzed site-selectivity toward sp3 C-H amination.

Abstract
Herein, visible-light-driven iron-catalyzed nitrene transfer reactions with dioxazolones for intermolecular C(sp3 )-N, N=S, and N=P bond formation are described. These reactions occur with exogenous-ligand-free process and feature satisfactory to excellent yields (up to 99 %), an ample substrate scope (109 examples) under mild reaction conditions. In contrast to intramolecular C-H amidations strategies, an intermolecular regioselective C-H amidation via visible-light-induced nitrene transfer reactions is devised. Mechanistic studies indicate that the reaction proceeds via a radical pathway. Computational studies show that the decarboxylation of dioxazolone depends on the conversion of ground sextet state dioxazolone-bounding iron species to quartet spin state via visible-light irradiation.

Abstract
The iron-catalyzed δ-C(sp3)-H bond difluoromethylthiolation and difluoromethylselenation of aliphatic amides with high site selectivity are reported. Essential to the success is the employment of an amide radical formed in situ to activate the inert C(sp3)-H bond and the utilization of the easily handled PhSO2SCF2H and PhSO2SeCF2H as coupling reagents under mild conditions. This scalable protocol exhibits a broad substrate scope bearing versatile functional groups. Mechanistic studies indicate that the reaction proceeds through -SCF2H and -SeCF2H radical transfer.

Abstract
Catalytic reactions that construct carbon-nitrogen bonds are one of central themes in both synthetic and medicinal chemistry since the obtainable nitrogen-containing motifs are commonly encountered in natural products and have also seen a growing prominence as key structural features in marketed drugs and preclinical candidates. Pd-catalyzed cross-couplings, such as Buchwald-Hartwig amination, are at the forefront of such synthetic methods in practical settings. However, they require prefunctionalized substrates such as (hetero)aryl halides that must be prepared independently, often by multiple operations. One emerging way to circumvent these preparatory steps and directly convert ubiquitous C-H bonds into valuable C-N bonds is catalytic C-H amination, which allows synthetic chemists to devise shorter and more efficient retrosynthetic schemes. The past two decades have witnessed considerable progress in expanding the repertoire of this strategy, especially by identifying effective amino group precursors. In this context, dioxazolones have experienced a dramatic resurgence in recent years as a versatile nitrogen source in combination with transition-metal catalyst systems that facilitate decarboxylation to access key metal-acylnitrenoid intermediates. In addition to their high robustness and easy accessibility from abundant carboxylic acids, the unique reactivity of the transient intermediates in the amido group transfer has led to a fruitful journey for mild and efficient C-H amidation reactions.This Account summarizes our recent contributions to the development of C-N bond-forming reactions using dioxazolones as effective nitrenoid precursors, which are categorized into two subsets according to their mechanistic differences: inner- versus outer-sphere pathways. The first section describes how we could unveil the synthetic potential of dioxazolones in the realm of the inner-sphere C-H amidation, where we demonstrated that dioxazolones serve not only as manageable alternatives to acyl azides but also as highly efficient reagents to significantly reduce the catalyst loading and temperature. Taking advantage of the mild conditions in combination with group 9 Cp*M complexes (M = Rh, Ir, Co) or isoelectronic Ru species, we have dramatically expanded the accessible synthetic scope. Mechanistic investigations revealed that the putative metal-nitrenoid species is involved as a key intermediate during catalysis, which leads to facile C-N bond formation. On the basis of the mechanistic underpinning, we have succeeded in developing novel catalytic platforms that harness the intermediacy of metal-nitrenoids to explore C-H insertion chemistry via an outer-sphere pathway. Indeed, the tailored catalysts were capable of suppressing the competitive Curtius-type decomposition, thus granting access to versatile lactam products. We have further repurposed the catalytic systems upon modification of chelating ligands and also the identity of the transition metal to achieve three goals: (i) addressing selectivity issues to control the regio-, chemo-, and enantioselectivities, (ii) developing sustainable catalysis by first-low metals, and (iii) navigating chemical space for (di)functionalization of alkenes/alkynes. Together with our own research efforts, highlighted herein are some important relevant advances by other groups. We finally conclude with a brief overview with an eye toward further developments.

Abstract
Metal-catalyzed C-N bond formation reactions via acylnitrene transfer have recently attracted much attention, but direct detection of the proposed acylnitrenoid/acylimido M(NCOR) (R=aryl or alkyl) species in these reactions poses a formidable challenge. Herein, we report on Ru(NCOR) intermediates in C-N bond formation catalyzed by [RuIV (Por)Cl2 ]/N3 COR, a catalytic method applicable to aziridine/oxazoline formation from alkenes, amination of substituted indoles, α-amino ketone formation from silyl enol ethers, amination of C(sp3 )-H bonds, and functionalization of natural products and carbohydrate derivatives (up to 99 % yield). Experimental studies, including HR-ESI-MS and EPR measurements, coupled with DFT calculations, lend evidence for the formulation of the Ru(NCOR) acylnitrenoids as a RuV -imido species.

Abstract
The crucial role played by compounds bearing amide functions, not only in biological processes but also in several fields of chemistry, life polymers and material sciences, has brought about many significant discoveries and innovative approaches for their chemical synthesis. Indeed, a plethora of strategies has been developed to reach such moieties. Amides within chiral molecules are often associated with biological activity especially in life sciences and medicinal chemistry. In most of these cases, their synthesis requires extensive rethinking methodologies. In the very last years (2019–2020), enantioselective C-H functionalization has appeared as a straightforward alternative to reach chiral amides. Therein, an overview on these transformations within this timeframe is going to be given.

Abstract
A readily available catalyst consisting of iron dichloride in combination with 1,10-phenanthroline catalyzes the ring-closing C-H amination of N-benzoyloxyurea to form imidazolidin-2-ones in high yields. The C-H amination reaction is very general and applicable to benzylic, allylic, propargylic, and completely non-activated aliphatic C(sp3 )-H bonds, and it also works for C(sp2 )-H bonds. The surprisingly simple method can be performed under open flask conditions.

Abstract
Since the definition of the "12 Principles of Green Chemistry" more than 20 years ago, chemists have become increasingly mindful of the need to conserve natural resources and protect the environment through the judicious choice of synthetic routes and materials. The direct activation and functionalization of C-H bonds, bypassing intermediate functional group installation is, in abstracto, step and atom economic, but numerous factors still hinder the sustainability of large-scale applications. In this Outlook, we highlight the research areas seeking to overcome the sustainability challenges of C-H activation: the pursuit of abundant metal catalysts, the avoidance of static directing groups, the replacement of metal oxidants, and the introduction of bioderived solvents. We close by examining the progress made in the subfield of aryl C-H borylation from its origins, through highly efficient but precious Ir-based systems, to emerging 3d metal catalysts. The future growth of this field will depend on industrial uptake, and thus we urge researchers to strive toward sustainable C-H activation.
