Abstract
Acylsilanes are emerging bench-stable reagents for the generation of electron-rich oxycarbenes that are difficult to access with unstable diazo compounds. Herein, we report a siloxycarbene-mediated stereoselective synthesis of silyl enol ethers through visible-light-induced intermolecular reactions between acylsilanes and α,β-unsaturated ketones. Both the solvent and low temperature are important for the success of the reaction. This approach features atomic economics, exclusive stereocontrol, and broad substrate scope. The synthetic potential of this methodology is demonstrated by gram-scale reaction and various downstream transformations including that requiring configuration purity of the silyl enol ethers.

Abstract
ConspectusRh2L4 catalysts have risen in popularity in the world of organic synthesis, being used to accomplish a variety of reactions, including C-H insertion and cyclopropanation, and often doing so with high levels of stereocontrol. While the mechanisms and origins of selectivity for such reactions have been examined with computational quantum chemistry for decades, only recently have detailed pictures of the dynamic behavior of reacting Rh2L4-complexed molecules become accessible. Our computational studies on Rh2L4 catalyzed reactions are described here, with a focus on C-H insertion reactions of Rh2L4-carbenes. Several issues complicate the modeling of these reactions, each providing an opportunity for greater understanding and each revealing issues that should be incorporated into future rational design efforts. First, the fundamental mechanism of C-H insertion is discussed. While early quantum chemical studies pointed to transition structures with 3-center [C-H-C] substructures and asynchronous hydride transfer/C-C bond formation, recent examples of reactions with particularly flat potential energy surfaces and even discrete zwitterionic intermediates have been found. These reactions are associated with systems bearing π-donating groups at the site of hydride transfer, allowing for an intermediate with a carbocation substructure at that site to be selectively stabilized. Second, the possible importance of solvent coordination at the Rh atom distal to the carbene is discussed. While effects on reactivity and selectivity were found to be small, they turn out not to be negligible in some cases. Third, it is shown that, in contrast to many other transition metal promoted reactions, many Rh2L4 catalyzed reactions likely involve dissociation of the Rh2L4 catalyst before key chemical steps leading to products. When to expect dissociation is associated with specific features of substrates and the product-forming reactions in question. Often, dissociation precedes transition structures for pericyclic reactions that involve electrons that would otherwise bind to Rh2L4. Finally, the importance of nonstatistical dynamic effects, characterized through ab initio molecular dynamics studies, in some Rh2L4 catalyzed reactions is discussed. These are reactions where transition structures are shown to be followed by flat regions, very shallow minima, and/or pathways that bifurcate, all allowing for trajectories from a single transition state to form multiple different products. The likelihood of encountering such a situation is shown to be associated again with the likelihood of formation of zwitterionic structures along reaction paths, but ones for which pathways to multiple products are expected to be associated with very low or no barriers. The connection between these features and reduced yields of desired products are highlighted, as are the means by which some Rh2L4 catalysts modulate dynamic behavior to produce particular products in high yield.

Abstract
Transition metal catalyzed C-H bond activation has become one of the most important tools for constructing new chemical bonds. Introducing directing groups to the substrates is the key to a successful reaction, these directing groups can also be further transformed in the reaction. Amidines with their unique structure and reactivity are ideal substrates for transition metal-catalyzed C-H transformations. This review describes the major advances and mechanistic investigations of the C-H activation/annulation tandem reactions of amidines until early 2024, focusing on metal-catalyzed C-H activation of amidines with unsaturated compounds, such as alkynes, ketone, vinylene carbonate, cyclopropanols and their derivatives. Meanwhile this manuscript also explores the reaction of amidines with different carbene precursors, for example diazo compounds, azide, triazoles, pyriodotriazoles, and sulfoxonium ylides as well as their own C-H bond activation/cyclization reactions. A bright outlook is provided at the end of the manuscript.

Abstract
Transition metal catalysis has contributed to the discovery of novel methodologies and the preparation of natural products, as well as new chances to increase the chemical space in drug discovery programs. In the case of marine drugs, this strategy has been used to achieve selective, sustainable and efficient transformations, which cannot be obtained otherwise. In this perspective, we aim to showcase how a variety of transition metals have provided fruitful couplings in a wide variety of marine drug-like scaffolds over the past few years, by accelerating the production of these valuable molecules.

Abstract
RATIONALE ADB-FUBIATA is one of the most recently identified new psychoactive substance (NPS) of synthetic cannabinoids. The co-use of in vitro (human liver microsomes) and in vivo (zebrafish) models offers abundant metabolites and may give a deep insight into the metabolism of NPS. METHODS In vivo and in vitro metabolic studies of new synthetic cannabinoid ADB-FUBIATA were carried out using zebrafish and pooled human liver microsome models. Metabilites were structurally characterized by liquid chromatography-high-resolution mass spectrometry. RESULTS In total, 18 metabolites were discovered and identified in the pooled human liver microsomes and zebrafish, including seventeen phase I metabolites and one phase II metabolite. The main metabolic pathways of ADB-FUBIATA were hydroxylation, dehydrogenation, N-dealkylation, amide hydrolysis, glucuronidation, and combination thereof. CONCLUSION Hydroxylated metabolites can be recommended as metabolic markers for ADB-FUBIATA because of the structural characteristics and high intensity. These metabolism characteristics of ADB-FUBIATA were useful for its further forensic or clinical related investigations.

Abstract
Herein, we report a scandium-catalyzed chemoselective carbene insertion into a N-H bond over a S-H bond with disulfide formation. This reaction represents the first example of the synthesis of o-alkylamine-diaryl disulfides through the N-alkylation of o-aminobenzenethiol, while also undergoing oxidative coupling to form a S-S bond. Control experiments explain the chemo-selectivity of this rare-earth-metal Lewis acid-induced catalysis by a carbene outer-sphere nucleophilic addition mechanism. This method holds tremendous potential as a valuable tool for functionalizing advanced-synthetic-intermediates, offering numerous applications in medicinal and materials chemistry.

Abstract
A special type of C-H functionalization can be achieved through C-H insertion combined with Cope rearrangement (CHCR) in the presence of dirhodium catalysts. This type of reaction was studied using density functional theory and ab initio molecular dynamics simulations, the results of which pointed to the dynamic origins of low yields observed in some experiments. These studies not only reveal intimate details of the complex reaction network underpinning CHCR reactions but also further cement the generality of the importance of nonstatistical dynamic effects in controlling Rh2L4-promoted reactions.

Mechanistic studies indicate that the β-sulfonamido-α-imino gold carbene is the key intermediate which is generated through the gold-catalyzed cyclization of N-(2-azidophenyl-ynyl)methanesulfonamides and undergoes formal [4 + 2] cascade annulation with nitriles and intramolecular SN2' type reaction with water, respectively.

Abstract
The mechanism, enantioselectivity, and effect of chiral phosphoric acid (CPA) cocatalyst were investigated by the density functional theory (DFT) for the three-component asymmetric aminohydroxylation between two diazo compounds and a hydroxylamine derivative. This type of cascade process is cooperatively catalyzed by Rh2(OAc)4 and CPA. The obtained results clearly indicate that the first step of the global reaction involves a nucleophilic attack at the nitrogen center of N-hydroxyaniline by rhodium-carbene intermediates producing imines. Subsequently, an enolate intermediate was recognized as the key species generated from the second diazo compound and the leaving benzyl alcohol (BnOH) fragment of the first step and in the presence of the same dirhodium catalyst. Then, the reaction is terminated by the asymmetric Mannich-type addition, delivering the aminohydroxylation products of an S-R conformation with the assistance of chiral phosphoric acid. The distortion/interaction analysis shows that the relative distortions of CPA and the enol play a vital role in the energy ordering of the stereocontrolling transition states (TSs). Furthermore, the influence of different substituents in CPA was fully rationalized by distortion/interaction analysis. This study opens up novel synthetic possibilities and improves the reaction predictability when exploring the related types of cooperatively catalyzed organic transformations.

Abstract
Although a ripe old discipline by now, carbene chemistry continues to flourish as both theorists and experimentalists have shown sustained interest in this area of research. While there are numerous ways of generating carbenes, the thermal and/or photochemical decomposition of diazo compounds and diazirines remains, by far, the most commonly used method of producing these intermediates. There is no disputing the fact that these nitrogenous precursors have served carbene researchers well, but their use is not without problems. They are often sensitive and hazardous to handle and, sometimes, the desired nitrogenous precursor simply may not be available, e.g., for synthetic reasons, to study the particular carbene of interest. Furthermore, there is a legitimate concern that the photochemical generation of carbenes in solution from diazo compounds and diazirines may be contaminated by reactions in the excited states (RIES) of the precursors themselves. As an alternative, several laboratories, including ours, have used cyclopropanated aromatic systems to generate a wide range of carbenes. In each case, the cheleotropic extrusion of carbenes is accompanied by the formation of stable aromatic by-products such as phenanthrene, indane, naphthalene, and 1,4-dihydronaphthalene. The emergence of these "non-traditional" carbene sources, their versatility, and promise are reviewed in this work.

Abstract
Herein, we reported an intermolecular asymmetric hydrative aldol reaction through vinyl-gold intermediate under ambient conditions. This tandem alkyne hydration and sequential nucleophilic addition afforded a "base-free" approach to β-hydroxy amides with high efficiency (up to 95 % yields, >50 examples). Vinyl gold intermediate was applied as reactive nucleophile and Fe(acac)3 was used as the critical co-catalyst to prevent undesired protodeauration, allowing this transformation to proceed under mild conditions with good functional group tolerance and excellent stereoselectivity (>20 : 1 d.r. and up to 99 % ee).

Catalyst-Substrate Helical Character Matching Determines the Enantioselectivity in the Ishihara-Type Iodoarenes Catalyzed Asymmetric Kita-Dearomative Spirolactonization.

Abstract
Catalyst design has traditionally focused on rigid structural elements to prevent conformational flexibility. Ishihara's elegant design of conformationally flexible C2-symmetric iodoarenes, a new class of privileged organocatalysts, for the catalytic asymmetric dearomatization (CADA) of naphthols is a notable exception. Despite the widespread use of the Ishihara catalysts for CADAs, the reaction mechanism remains the subject of debate, and the mode of asymmetric induction has not been well established. Here, we report an in-depth computational investigation of three possible mechanisms in the literature. Our results, however, reveal that this reaction is best rationalized by a fourth mechanism called "proton-transfer-coupled-dearomatization (PTCD)", which is predicted to be strongly favored over other competing pathways. The PTCD mechanism is consistent with a control experiment and further validated by applying it to rationalize the enantioselectivities. Oxidation of the flexible I(I) catalyst to catalytic active I(III) species induces a defined C2-symmetric helical chiral environment with a delicate balance between flexibility and rigidity. A match/mismatch effect between the active catalyst and the substrate's helical shape in the dearomatization transition states was observed. The helical shape match allows the active catalyst to adapt its conformation to maximize attractive noncovalent interactions, including I(III)···O halogen bond, N-H···O hydrogen bond, and π···π stacking, to stabilize the favored transition state. A stereochemical model capable of rationalizing the effect of catalyst structural variation on the enantioselectivities is developed. The present study enriches our understanding of how flexible catalysts achieve high stereoinduction and may serve as an inspiration for the future exploration of conformational flexibility for new catalyst designs.

Abstract
With the fast development of synthetic chemistry, the introduction of functional group into organic molecules has attracted increasing attention. In these reactions, the difunctionalization of unsaturated bonds, traditionally with one nucleophile and one electrophile, is a powerful strategy for the chemical synthesis. In this work, we develop a different path of electrochemical oxidative difunctionalization of diazo compounds with two different nucleophiles. Under metal-free and external oxidant-free conditions, a series of structurally diverse heteroatom-containing compounds hardly synthesized by traditional methods (such as high-value alkoxy-substituted phenylthioacetates, α-thio, α-amino acid derivatives as well as α-amino, β-amino acid derivatives) are obtained in synthetically useful yields. In addition, the procedure exhibits mild reaction conditions, excellent functional-group tolerance and good efficiency on large-scale synthesis. Importantly, the protocol is also amenable to the key intermediate of bioactive molecules in a simple and practical process.

Abstract
An iron-catalysed carbene transfer reaction of diazo compounds to isocyanides has been developed. The resulting ketenimines are trapped in situ with various bisnucleophiles to access a range of densely functionalized heterocycles (pyrimidinones, dihydropyrazolones, 1H-tetrazoles) in a one-pot process. The electron-rich Hieber anion ([Fe(CO)3 NO]- ) facilitates efficient catalytic carbene transfer from acceptor-type α-diazo carbonyl compounds to isocyanides, providing a cost-efficient and benign alternative to similar noble metal-catalysed processes. Based on DFT calculations a plausible reaction mechanism for activation of the α-diazo carbonyl carbene precursor and ketenimine formation is provided.

Abstract
A rhodium-catalyzed formal [4 + 1]-cyclization reaction of aryl substituted pyrazoles with cyclopropanols via C-H bond activation/cyclization processes to selectively construct a series of carbonyl functionalized pyrazolo[5,1-a]isoindoles is described. The reaction features good functional group compatibility and a broad substrate scope with respect to both cyclization components with up to 84% yields. Mechanistic studies indicated that the C-H cleavage might be the rate-determining step in this transformation.

Abstract
While metal carbene-mediated Si-H insertion reactions have become a powerful strategy to build new C-Si bonds, the utilization of α-aminocarbene intermediates generated from readily available precursors in the Si-H insertion reaction remains a longstanding challenge. Herein, we develop a practical and general strategy to synthesize α-aminosilanes through a deoxygenative cross-coupling of amides and silanes mediated by Sm/SmI2. Given the simplicity and versatility, this methodology represents a fascinating example for the effective utilization of inert amides as α-aminocarbene precursors in organic synthesis.

Abstract
The reactions of Pd-aryl complexes with diazo compounds N2CH-CHCHPh and N2CHPh allowed us to isolate the organometallic products formed right after the migratory insertion of a non-stabilized CHR carbene into the Pd-aryl bond. η3-Allylic and η3-benzylic palladium complexes were formed respectively. This is compelling experimental evidence for the key step in the palladium-catalyzed cascade transformations of diazo derivatives leading to multiple C-C or C-X bond formation.

A visible-light photocatalytic regioselective difunctionalization of alkenes with diazo compounds and tert-butyl nitrite has been developed. The protocol provides an efficient approach to γ-oximino esters under mild conditions. Significantly, this transformation not only shows the good compatibility of nucleophilic diazo compounds and electrophilic tert-butyl nitrite but also displays diazo compounds generating alkyl radicals that preferred addition to alkenes over nitroso radicals.

Abstract
Bicyclo[1.1.0]butane (BCB) derivatives are versatile coupling partners, and various reaction modes for their activation and transformation have been proposed. In this work, three BCB-activation modes in Rh-catalyzed BCB transformations that construct diastereoselective α-quaternary β-lactones were investigated by density functional theory calculations. Our results show that, compared with C1-C3 insertion and C-C3 oxidative addition, C2-C3 oxidative addition is more favorable. The whole catalytic cycle involves five main steps: C-H activation, oxidative addition, β-C elimination/reductive elimination, Rh walking, and aldehyde insertion/protonation. Independent gradient model, intrinsic reaction coordinate, distortion-interaction energy, and Laplacian electron-density analyses were carried out to investigate the mode of BCB activation. Our calculation also showed that aldehyde-insertion is the diastereoselectivity determining step, which is controlled by the steric effect between the ligand, methyl group, and aldehyde.

Abstract
Transition metal-catalysed carbene- and nitrene transfer to the C1-building blocks carbon monoxide and isocyanides provides heteroallenes (i.e. ketenes, isocyanates, ketenimines and carbodiimides). These are versatile and reactive compounds allowing in situ transformation towards numerous functional groups and organic compounds, including heterocycles. Both one-pot and tandem processes have been developed providing valuable synthetic methods for the organic chemistry toolbox. This review discusses all known transition metal-catalysed carbene- and nitrene transfer reactions towards carbon monoxide and isocyanides and in situ transformation of the heteroallenes hereby obtained, with a special focus on the general mechanistic considerations.

Abstract
Stereoselective cyclopropanation reaction of alkenes is usually achieved by metal complexes via singlet-metal-carbene intermediates. However, previous transition-metal-catalyzed cyclopropanation of alkenes with acylsilanes afforded low diastereoselectivity. Herein, we report the first visible-light-induced transition-metal-free cyclopropanation reaction of terminal alkenes with trifluoroacetylsilanes and difluoroacetylsilanes. Both aromatic and aliphatic alkenes as well as electron-deficient alkenes are suitable substrates for the highly cis-selective [2+1] cyclization reaction. A combination of experimental and computational studies identified triplet carbenes as being key intermediates in this transformation. The gram scale reaction and late-stage functionalization demonstrated the synthetic potential of this strategy.

Abstract
We report herein a highly efficient palladium-catalyzed carbene insertion into strained Si-C bonds of benzosilacyclobutanes, which provides an efficient method to access α-chiral silanes. With a sterically hindered ligand, carbene insertion into the C(sp3 )-Si bond of benzosilacyclobutanes occurred in excellent site- and enantioselectivity, while C(sp2 )-Si bond insertion occurred selectively with less sterically hindered ligands. Reaction mechanism, in particular the roles of the chiral ligands in controlling the site-selectivity of the insertion reactions, are elucidated by using hybrid density functional theory.

Abstract
Pt(II) alkylidene 1a has been reacted with terminal alkynes to afford ylide complexes 3a-d, resulting from electrophilic activation of the CC bond and its insertion into the platinacyclic fragment of 1a that contains the carbene functionality. DFT calculations indicate that the observed regioselectivity is determined by the nucleophilic attack of the alkyne to the alkylidene carbon.

Abstract
An inexpensive copper-catalyzed sequential reaction process, proceeding via a nucleophilic attack of amine to Cu-carbene generated in situ from heterocyclic N-tosylhydrazone precursors followed by a 1,2-H shift/oxidative cyclization cascade of N-ylides, has been described, smoothly generating the corresponding structurally various spiro-dihydropyrrolo[1,2-a]quinoxaline derivatives. Furthermore, the significance of this protocol can be also highlighted by its diverse conversions of the synthetic compounds to the potentially bioactive molecules such as the 2-substituted pyrrolo[1,2-a]quinoxalins.

Abstract
Considering the ubiquitous nature and ready synthesis of amides, and the great significance of organofluorine-containing species, the cross-coupling of amides and polyfluoroarenes, leading to new carbon-carbon bond-forming methodologies, would find useful applications in synthesis, late-stage functionalization, and rapid generation of molecular diversity. Herein, we present a novel synthesis of α-polyfluoroaryl amines via Sm/SmI2 -mediated deoxygenative cross-coupling of aromatic amides with polyfluoroarenes through direct C-H functionalization. The structural and functional diversity of these readily available precursors provides a versatile and flexible strategy for the streamlined synthesis of α-polyfluoroaryl amines. Combining experimental and theoretical studies, a novel plausible mechanism of the α-aminocarbene-mediated C-H insertion has been revealed, which may stimulate future work for the development of novel methods in amine synthesis.

Abstract
A computational study has been performed to investigate the mechanism of RhIII‐catalyzed C−H bond activation using sulfoxonium ylides as a carbene precursor. The stepwise and concerted activation modes for sulfoxonium ylides were investigated. Detailed theoretical results showed that the favored stepwise pathway involves C−H bond activation, carbonization, carbene insertion, and protonation. The free energy profiles for dialkylation of 2‐phenylpyridine were also calculated to account for the low yield of this reaction. Furthermore, the substituent effect was elucidated by comparing the energy barriers for the protonation of meta‐ and para‐substituted sulfoxonium ylides calculated by density functional theory.

Abstract
Herein a novel and concise approach to pyrrole skeletons via Pd-catalyzed tandem cyclization reactions is investigated. The substrates for the transformation could be readily prepared by phosphoric acid-catalyzed Ugi reactions with available starting materials. In this strategy, two isocyanides participate in sequential isocyanide insertion reactions, and the chemoselectivity of the products is regulated by the steric hindrance of the isocyanide. A plausible mechanism for the formation of the corresponding adducts is proposed.

Abstract
The past decade has witnessed tremendous developments in transition-metal-catalyzed C-H bond activation and subsequent carbene migratory insertion reactions, thus assisting in the construction of diverse arene/heteroarene scaffolds. Various transition-metal catalysts serve this purpose and provide efficient pathways for an easy access to substituted heterocycles. A brief introduction to metal-carbenes has been provided along with key mechanistic pathways underlying the coupling reactions. The purpose of this review is to provide a concise knowledge about diverse directing group-assisted coupling of varied arenes/heteroarenes and acceptor-acceptor/donor-acceptor diazo compounds. The review also highlights the synthesis of various carbocycles and fused heterocycles through diazo insertion pathways, via C-C, C-N and C-O bond forming reactions. The mechanism usually involves a C-H activation process, followed by diazo insertion leading to subsequent coupling.

Abstract
We report herein a highly efficient palladium-catalyzed carbene insertion into strained Si-C bonds with excellent enantioselectivity, which provides a rapid and distinct method to access silacyclopentanes with a three- or four-substituted stereocenter asymmetrically. Mechanistic studies using hybrid density functional theory suggest a catalytic cycle involving oxidative addition, carbene migratory insertion, and reductive elimination. In addition, roles of the chiral ligands in controlling the reaction enantioselectivity are also elucidated.
