Abstract
Here, we present a straightforward α-trans-selective hydroboration of alkynyl sulfones with NHC-boranes without the need for a catalyst. This reaction is compatible with a wide range of substrates for efficiently producing structurally diverse α-borylated vinyl sulfones in satisfactory yields. The hydride transfer from NHC-borane 2a to alkynyl triflone 1b is studied by density functional theory (DFT) calculations for trans-hydroboration. Moreover, a regiodivergent deuterated semihydrogenation of alkynyl triflones has also been developed using D2O as the deuterium source. A variety of diversity-oriented D-containing vinyl triflones were prepared in good to excellent yields with excellent deuterium incorporation ratios. Synthetic manipulations of the deuterated products are achieved for the conversion into valuable deuterated molecules, indicating the utility of this protocol.

Abstract
Transition metal catalysis has contributed immensely to C-C bond formation reactions over the last few decades, and alkylation is no exception. The superiority of such methodologies over traditional alkylation is evident from minimal reaction steps, shorter reaction times, and atom economy while also allowing control over regio- and stereo-selectivity. In particular, hydrocarbonation of alkenes has grabbed increased attention due its fundamental ability to effectively and selectively synthesise a wide range of industrially and pharmaceutically relevant moieties. This review attempts to provide a scientific viewpoint and a systematic analysis of the recent developments in transition-metal-catalyzed alkylation of various C-H bonds using simple and activated olefins. The key features and mechanistic studies involved in these transformations are described briefly.

Abstract
The rhodium(I)-catalyzed reaction of N-8-aminoquinolinyl aromatic amides with maleimides results in C-H alkylation at the ortho position of the amide. The reaction path and formation of the alkylation product with density functional theory (DFT) calculations were done. The detailed computational study showed that the reaction proceeds in the following steps: (I) deprotonation of the NH amide proton, (II) oxidative addition of the ortho C-H bond, (III) migratory insertion of the maleimide, (IV) reductive elimination with the C-C bond formation, and (V) protonation. The energetic span model showed that the turnover frequency (TOF)-determining transition state (TDTS) is the oxidative addition, while the TOF-determining intermediate (TDI) is the formation of an Rh(I)-complex after N-H deprotonation. It was also found that the change in the oxidation number of the Rh catalyst is a key determinant of the reaction path.

Abstract
The Rh-catalyzed C-H alkylation of benzylamine derivatives with unactivated 1-alkenes that proceeds via a picolinamide directing group is reported. The crucial role of an acid additive in this transformation is confirmed. Aromatic acids showed high linear selectivity, and aliphatic acids provided branched alkylation products as the major product. The reaction has a broad scope for benzylamines and alkenes. Deuterium labeling experiments suggest that a Rh-carbene intermediate is involved in the case of linear product formation. A different reaction pathway, however, appears to be involved in the case of branched alkylation products, and this pathway also appeared to be a minor pathway in linear-selective reactions.

Abstract
The Rh-catalyzed C–H alkylation of benzylamines with alkenes using a picolinamide derivative as a directing group is reported. Both Rh(i) and Rh(ii) complexes can be used as active catalysts for this transformation. In addition, a flow set up was designed to successfully mimic this process under flow conditions. Several examples are presented under flow conditions and it was confirmed that a flow process is advantageous over a batch process. Deuterium labelling experiments were performed to elucidate the mechanism of the reaction, and the results indicated a possible carbene mechanism for this C–H alkylation process. Rh(i)- and Rh(ii)-catalyzed C–H alkylation of benzylamines with alkenes using a picolinamide derivative as a directing group is reported under both batch and flow.![]()

Abstract
A facile and effective method for Rh-catalyzed direct ortho-alkylation of C–H bonds in (hetero)arenes with commercially available carboxylic acids has been developed. This strategy was initiated by in situ conversion of carboxylic acids to anhydrides which, without isolation, underwent Rh-catalyzed direct decarbonylative cross-coupling of aryl carboxamides containing 8-aminoquinoline. The reaction proceeds with high regioselectivity and exhibits a broad substrate scope as well as functional group tolerance. A facile and effective method for Rh-catalyzed direct ortho-alkylation of C–H bonds in (hetero)arenes with commercially available carboxylic acids has been developed.![]()

Abstract
A rhodium(III)-catalyzed redox-neutral coupling of α-trifluoromethylacrylic acid with bezamides proceeds smoothly accompanied by amide-directed C-H bond cleavage to produce β-[2-(aminocarbonyl)phenyl]-α-trifluoromethylpropanoic acid derivatives. One of the products can be transformed to a trifluoromethyl substituted heterocyclic compound. In addition, the redox-neutral coupling of α-trifluoromethylacrylic acid with related aromatic substrates possessing a nitrogen-containing directing group can also be conducted under similar conditions.

Abstract
Rhodium(ii)-catalyzed unusual branch-selective ortho-C-H alkylation of aryl sulfonamides with vinylsilanes was achieved using an 8-aminoquinoline directing group. Notably, the para-substituted aryl sulfonamides gave mono-(branched)alkylated products exclusively without the formation of any double C-H alkylated byproducts. The results of deuterium labeling experiments suggest that both hydrometalation and carbometalation pathways are involved in this conversion.
