Abstract
The exploration of strong chemical bonds as synthetic handles offers new disconnection strategies for the synthesis of functionalized molecules via transition metal catalysis. However, the slow oxidative addition rate of these covalent bonds to a transition metal center hampers their synthetic utility. Here, we report a C(sp3)-N bond activation strategy that bypasses thermodynamically challenging 2e- or 1e- oxidative addition via a distinct pathway in nickel catalysis. This strategy leverages a previously unknown activation pathway of photoinduced inner-sphere charge transfer of low-valent nickel(isonitriles), triggering a C(sp3)-N bond cleavage distal to the metal-ligand interaction to deliver nickel(cyanide) and versatile alkyl radicals. Utilizing this catalytic strategy, the selective intermolecular 1,2-carbocyanation reaction of alkynes with alkyl isonitriles as both alkylating and cyanating agents can be achieved, delivering a wide array of trisubstituted alkenyl nitriles with excellent atom-economy, regio-, and stereoselectivity under mild conditions. Furthermore, Markovnikov-selective hydrocyanation of aliphatic alkynes can be accomplished through the synergistic action of a photocatalyst utilizing isonitriles as the cyanation agents. Mechanistic investigations support the photogeneration of low-valent Ni(isonitrile) complexes that undergo photochemical homolysis of the C(sp3)-N bond to engage catalytic cyanation with alkynes.

Abstract
A three-component defluorinative haloalkylation of alkenes with trifluoromethyl compounds and TBAX (X = Cl, Br) via dual photoredox/copper catalysis is reported. The mild conditions are compatible with a wide array of activated trifluoromethyl aromatics bearing diverse substituents, and various nonactivated terminal and internal alkenes, enabling straightforward access to synthetically valuable γ-gem-difluoroalkyl halides with high efficiency. Mechanistic studies indicate that the [Cu] complexes not only serve as XAT catalysts but also facilitate the SET reduction of trifluoromethyl groups by photocatalysts. Additionally, the resulting alkyl halide products can serve as versatile conversion intermediates for the synthesis of a diverse range of γ-gem-difluoroalkyl compounds.

Abstract
ConspectusLate-stage halogenation, targeting specific positions in complex substrates, has gained significant attention due to its potential for diversifying and functionalizing complex molecules such as natural products and pharmaceutical intermediates. Utilizing readily available halogenating reagents, such as hydrogen halides (HX), N-halosuccinimides (NXS), and dichloroethane (DCE) reagents for late-stage halogenation shows great promise for expanding the toolbox of synthetic chemists. However, the reactivity of haleniums (X+, X = Cl, Br, I) can be significantly hindered by the presence of various functional groups such as hydroxyl, amine, amide, or carboxylic acid groups. The developed methods of late-stage halogenation often rely on specialized activating reagents and conditions. Recently, our group (among others) has put great efforts into addressing these challenges and unlocking the potential of these readily available HX, NXS, and DCE reagents in complex molecule halogenation. Developing new methodologies, catalyst systems, and reaction conditions further enhanced their utility, enabling the efficient and selective halogenation of intricate substrates.With the long-term goal of achieving selective halogenation of complex molecules, we summarize herein three complementary research topics in our group: (1) Efficient oxidative halogenations: Taking inspiration from naturally occurring enzyme-catalyzed oxidative halogenation reactions, we focused on developing cost-effective oxidative halogenation reactions. We found the combination of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and HX (X = Cl, Br, I) efficient for the oxidative halogenation of aromatic compounds and alkenes. Additionally, we developed electrochemical oxidative halogenation using DCE as a practical chlorinating reagent for chlorination of (hetero)arenes. (2) Halenium reagent activation: Direct electrophilic halogenation using halenium reagents is a reliable method for obtaining organohalides. However, compared to highly reactive reagents, the common and readily available NXS and dihalodimethylhydantoin (DXDMH) demonstrate relatively lower reactivity. Therefore, we focused on developing oxygen-centered Lewis base catalysts such as DMSO, 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-oxyl (TEMPO) and nitromethane to activate NXS or DXDMH, enabling selective halogenation of bioactive substrates. (3) Halogenation of inert substrates: Some substrates, such as electron-poor arenes and pyridines, are inert toward electrophilic functionalization reactions. We devised several strategies to enhance the reactivity of these molecules. These strategies, characterized by mild reaction conditions, the ready availability and stability of catalysts and reagents, and excellent tolerance for various functional groups, have emerged as versatile protocols for the late-stage aromatic halogenation of drugs, natural products, and peptides. By harnessing the versatility and selectivity of these catalysts and methodologies, synthetic chemists can unlock new possibilities in the synthesis of halogenated compounds, paving the way for the development of novel functional materials and biologically active molecules.

Abstract
A cobalt-catalyzed three-component assembly of substituted aryl oximes with dienes and formaldehyde via C-H bond activation is described. This protocol affords highly regio- and chemoselective substituted homoallylic alcohols with moderate-to-excellent yields. The scope of this protocol has been extensively explored with various substituted aryl ketoximes and aldoximes. Butadiene and internally substituted dienes are also well compatible for this transformation. A plausible reaction mechanism is proposed to account for the present reaction and is supported by deuterium labeling studies.

Abstract
Olefins play an essential role in synthetic chemistry, serving not only as important synthons but also as key functional groups in numerous bio-active molecules. Consequently, there has been considerable interest in the development of more powerful methods for olefins. While the Wittig reaction stands as a prominent choice for olefin synthesis due to its simplicity and the ready availability of raw materials, its limitation lies in the challenge of controlling cis-trans selectivity, hampering its broader application. In this study, a novel Boron-Wittig reaction has been developed utilizing gem-bis(boryl)alkanes and aldehydes as starting materials. This method enables creating favourable intermediates, which possess less steric hindrance, and leading to trans-olefins via intramolecular O-B bonds elimination. Notably, synthesis studies have validated its good efficacy in modifying bioactive molecules and synthesizing drug molecules with great trans-selectivity. Furthermore, the reaction mechanism was elucidated based on intermediate trapping experiments, isotope labelling studies, and kinetic analyses.

Abstract
Metal-halogen exchange reactions are fundamental processes in chemistry that transform organic halides into organometallic reagents. However, using these reactions to build intricate structures in a cascade manner, especially in a catalytic mode, has been a challenge. In this study, we introduce a homoleptic organolanthanum catalyst to initiate lanthanum-halogen exchange and intramolecular carbohalogenation. The catalytic pathway can be achieved through metal-halogen exchange and carbometalation, followed by the extraction of halogen atoms from starting materials. Our approach offers a flexible and sustainable way to create a variety of useful compounds, showcasing its potential in chemical synthesis.

Abstract
A simple, mild, and environmentally benign regioselective oxy-iodination of 1-aryl/alkyl butadienes has been developed. While styrenes have been explored previously, this work on dienes has been highly regioselective and metal-free in oxy-iodination following Markovnikov's rule. The oxy-iodination products were obtained in good to excellent yields using various co-solvents (H2O, MeOH, EtOH, AcOH, etc.). In addition, the halohydrins have been useful building blocks in the synthesis of various functionalized keto iodides and azido alcohols.

Abstract
Alkyl chlorides are a class of versatile building blocks widely used to generate C(sp3)-rich scaffolds through transformation such as nucleophilic substitution, radical addition reactions and metal-catalyzed cross-coupling processes. Despite their utility in the synthesis of high-value functional molecules, distinct methods for the preparation of alkyl chlorides are underrepresented. Here, we report a visible-light-mediated dual catalysis strategy for the modular synthesis of highly functionalized and structurally diverse arylated chloroalkanes via the coupling of diaryliodonium salts, alkenes and potassium chloride. A distinctive aspect of this transformation is a ligand-design-driven approach for the development of a copper(II)-based atom-transfer catalyst that enables the aryl-chlorination of electron-poor alkenes, complementing its iron(III)-based counterpart that accommodates non-activated aliphatic alkenes and styrene derivatives. The complementarity of the two dual catalytic systems allows the efficient aryl-chlorination of alkenes bearing different stereo-electronic properties and a broad range of functional groups, maximizing the structural diversity of the 1-aryl, 2-chloroalkane products.

Abstract
Organohalides are vital organic building blocks with applications spanning various fields. However, direct halogenation of certain neutral or unreactive substrates by using solely the regular halogenating reagents has proven challenging. Although various halogenation approaches via activating halogenating reagents or substrates have emerged, a catalytic system enabling broad substrate applicability and diverse halogenation types remains relatively underexplored. Inspired by the halogenation of arenes via thianthrenation of arenes, here we report that thianthrene, in combined use with trifluoromethanesulfonic acid (TfOH), could work as an effective catalytic system to activate regular halogenating reagents (NXS). This new protocol could accomplish multiple types of halogenation of organic compounds including aromatics, olefins, alkynes and ketones. The mechanism study indicated that a highly reactive electrophilic halogen thianthrenium species, formed in situ from the reaction of NXS with thianthrene in the presence of TfOH, was crucial for the efficient halogenation process.

Abstract
A Ru(II)-catalyzed efficient synthesis of 1H-isoindoles via the cyclization of benzimidates with alkenes has been demonstrated. This methodology exhibits high compatibility with various functionalized activated and unactivated olefins containing different sensitive functional groups. This protocol provides an effective method for synthesizing various 1H-isoindole derivatives in decent to excellent yields. Notably, the ortho-alkenylation of benzimidates with unactivated alkenes was achieved. A potential reaction mechanism has been suggested that involves C-H activation, 1,2 insertion, and β-hydride elimination subsequent to aza-Michael addition.

Abstract
Organophosphorus-fluorine compounds are of significant utility across biology, pharmacy, and chemical synthesis. Here, we introduce a photocatalyzed oxidative-fluorination approach employing SF6 as a formal electrophilic fluorinating reagent. It offers an innovative pathway to forge P(O)-F bonds. Notably, sulfur hexafluoride plays a dual role as both the oxidant and the fluorinating reagent under mild conditions in this transformation. Meanwhile, this method contributes to environmental sustainability by consuming a notorious greenhouse gas, underscoring the ecological benefits of our approach.

Abstract
We have established an efficient ruthenium(II) and iodine anion cocatalyzed dihalogenation and cascade cyclization of internal alkyne-tethered cyclohexadienones, which stereoselectively afforded numerous dihalogenation products with a bioactive hydrobenzofuran skeleton in high yields under mild conditions. In this transformation, the reaction pathway was determined by the concentration of electrophilic iodine reagent, which also provided a strategy for control of the reaction selectivity. Furthermore, this method features the use of 1,2-dihaloroethane as the halogen source via iodine anion catalyst.

Abstract
The synthetic scope of 3-arylated tetrazo[1,2-b]indazoles is reported based on a Pd-catalyzed Liebeskind-Srogl cross-coupling reaction followed by an N-cyclisation process. The reactivity of the nitrogen atoms was used to further diversify these N-rich polyaromatic tetrazo[1,2-b]indazoles in a panel of reactions (protonation, selective oxidation, metallations). Selective ortho-C-H activation/functionalization on the heterocycle was also demonstrated with three transition metals (TM = Pd, Ir and Rh). The effects of all these molecular engineering strategies, particularly the N-modifications, on the optical and redox properties of the 3-arylated tetrazoindazoles were studied experimentally and theoretically. This study highlights the diversity of molecular structures and electronic properties offered by the tetrazo[1,2-b]indazole platform.

Abstract
Highly selective C-H functionalization remains an ongoing challenge in organic synthetic methodologies. Biocatalysts are robust tools for achieving these difficult chemical transformations. Biocatalyst engineering has often required directed evolution or structure-based rational design campaigns to improve their activities. In recent years, machine learning has been integrated into these workflows to improve the discovery of beneficial enzyme variants. In this work, we combine a structure-based machine-learning algorithm with classical molecular dynamics simulations to down select mutations for rational design of a non-heme iron-dependent lysine dioxygenase, LDO. This approach consistently resulted in functional LDO mutants and circumvents the need for extensive study of mutational activity before-hand. Our rationally designed single mutants purified with up to 2-fold higher yields than WT and displayed higher total turnover numbers (TTN). Combining five such single mutations into a pentamutant variant, LPNYI LDO, leads to a 40% improvement in the TTN (218±3) as compared to WT LDO (TTN = 160±2). Overall, this work offers a low-barrier approach for those seeking to synergize machine learning algorithms with pre-existing protein engineering strategies.

Abstract
Petroleum, as the "lifeblood" of industrial development, is the important energy source and raw material. The selective transformation of petroleum into high-end chemicals is of great significance, but still exists enormous challenges. Single-atom catalysts (SACs) with 100% atom utilization and homogeneous active sites, promise a broad application in petrochemical processes. Herein, the research systematically summarizes the recent research progress of SACs in petrochemical catalytic reaction, proposes the role of structural design of SACs in enhancing catalytic performance, elucidates the catalytic reaction mechanisms of SACs in the conversion of petrochemical processes, and reveals the high activity origins of SACs at the atomic scale. Finally, the key challenges are summarized and an outlook on the design, identification of active sites, and the appropriate application of artificial intelligence technology is provided for achieving scale-up application of SACs in petrochemical process.

Abstract
This study reports selective dual amino acylation and C-H bromination of aniline compounds enabled by Cu/O2 catalyst systems. This method involves crucial oxidation-induced C-CN bond cleavage of α-methylene nitriles to generate an acylcyanide intermediate that is facilely intercepted by anilines. After amino acylation, the Cu(II) precatalyst in combination with NBS generates Cu(III)-Br in situ that engages in selective electrophilic para- or ortho-C-H bromination. The substrate scope, mechanistic aspects, and late-stage functionalization of biologically active anilines are studied. This study shows the synthetic potential of oxidative C-CN bond activation of nitriles for the development of valuable reactions.

Abstract
Geminal, multi-halogenated functional groups are widespread in natural products and pharmaceuticals, yet no synthetic methodologies exist that enable selective multi-halogenation of unactivated C-H bonds. Biocatalysts are powerful tools for late-stage C-H functionalization, as they operate with high degrees of regio-, chemo-, and stereoselectivity. 2-oxoglutarate (2OG)-dependent non-heme iron halogenases chlorinate and brominate aliphatic C-H bonds offering a solution for achieving these challenging transformations. Here, we describe the ability of a non-heme iron halogenase, SyrB2, to controllably halogenate non-native substrate alpha-aminobutyric acid (Aba) to yield mono-chlorinated, di-chlorinated, and tri-chlorinated products. These chemoselective outcomes are achieved by controlling the loading of 2OG cofactor and SyrB2 biocatalyst. By using a ferredoxin-based biological reductant for electron transfer to the catalytic center of SyrB2, we demonstrate order-of-magnitude enhancement in the yield of tri-chlorinated product that were previously inaccessible using any single halogenase enzyme. We also apply these strategies to broaden SyrB2's reactivity scope to include multi-bromination and demonstrate chemoenzymatic conversion of the ethyl side chain in Aba to an ethylyne functional group. We show how steric hindrance induced by the successive addition of halogen atoms on Aba's C4 carbon dictates the degree of multi-halogenation by hampering C3-C4 bond rotation within SyrB2's catalytic pocket. Overall, our work showcases the synthetic potential of iron halogenases to facilitate multi-C-H functionalization chemistry.

Abstract
Polyhalogenated biaryls are unique motifs offering untapped potential as versatile building blocks for the expedient synthesis of complex biaryl compounds. Overcoming the limitations of conventional syntheses, we introduce a novel, metal-free, operationally simple and one-pot approach to regioselectively (di)halogenate biaryl compounds under mild conditions using cyclic biaryl hypervalent bromine and chlorine substrates as masked arynes. Through chemoselective post-functionalizations, these valuable products can expand the toolbox for synthesizing biaryl-containing scaffolds, addressing a critical gap in the field.

Abstract
Chlorinated compounds are ubiquitous. However, accumulation of chlorine-containing waste has a negative impact on human health and the environment due to the inapplicability of common disposal methods, such as landfill and incineration. Here we report a sustainable approach to valorize chlorine-containing hydrocarbon waste, including solids (chlorinated polymers) and liquids (chlorinated solvents), based on copper and palladium catalysts with a NaNO3 promoter. In the process, waste is oxidized to release the chlorine in the presence of N-directing arenes to afford valuable aryl chlorides, such as the FDA-approved drug vismodegib. The remaining hydrocarbon component is mineralized to afford CO, CO2 and H2O. Moreover, the CO and CO2 generated could be further utilized directly. Thus, chlorine-containing hydrocarbon waste, including mixed waste, can serve as chlorination reagents that neither generate hazardous by-products nor involve specialty chlorination reagents. This tandem catalytic approach represents a promising method for the viable management of a wide and diverse range of chlorine-containing hydrocarbon wastes.

Abstract
Due to boron's metalloid properties, aromatic boron reagents are prevalent synthetic intermediates. The direct borylation of aryl C-H bonds for producing aromatic boron compounds offers an appealing, one-step solution. Despite significant advances in this field, achieving regioselective aryl C-H bond borylation using simple and readily available starting materials still remains a challenge. In this work, we attempted to enhance the reactivity of the electron-donor-acceptor (EDA) complex by selecting different bases to replace the organic base (NEt3) used in our previous research. To our delight, when using NH4HCO3 as the base, we have achieved a mild visible-light-mediated aromatic C-H bond borylation reaction with exceptional regioselectivity (rr > 40:1 to single isomers). Compared with our previous borylation methodologies, this protocol provides a more efficient and broader scope for aryl C-H bond borylation through the use of N-Bromosuccinimide. The protocol's good functional-group tolerance and excellent regioselectivity enable the functionalization of a variety of biologically relevant compounds and novel cascade transformations. Mechanistic experiments and theoretical calculations conducted in this study have indicated that, for certain arenes, the aryl C-H bond borylation might proceed through a new reaction mechanism, which involves the formation of a novel transient EDA complex.

Abstract
Catalytic formation of a regio- and enantioselective C-F bond chiral center from readily available alkenes is a crucial goal, yet it continues to pose significant challenges in organic synthesis. Here, we report the regioselective formation of C-F bonds facilitated by NiH catalysis and a coordination directing strategy that enables precise hydrofluorination of both terminal and internal alkenes. Notably, we have optimized this methodology to achieve high enantioselectivity in creating aliphatic C-F stereogenic centers especially with β,γ-alkenyl substrates, using a tailored chiral Bn-BOx ligand. Another pivotal finding in our research is the identification of the (+)-nonlinear effect under optimized conditions, allowing for high enantioselectivity even with moderately enantiomerically enriched chiral ligands. Given the significant role of fluorine in pharmaceuticals and synthetic materials, this research offers essential insights into the regioselective and enantioselective formation of C-F bond chiral centers, paving the way for the efficient production of valuable fluorinated compounds.

Abstract
Direct vicinal difunctionalization of π-systems has emerged as a powerful platform for constructing multiple bonds in a single synthetic operation using simple chemical feedstocks. Over the past decade, there has been exponential growth in the direct construction of successive C-S and C-I bonds using a wide variety of sulfonyl and iodide reactants through 1,2-iodosulfonylation of alkynes in a regio- and stereo-selective manner. In this review, we mainly focus on the recent developments in the preparation of β-iodovinyl sulfones and their practical applications in organic synthesis. The most promising photoredox and electrochemical transformations for synthesizing β-iodovinyl sulfones are also reviewed. The multifunctional β-iodovinyl sulfones have recently been burgeoning as versatile synthetic precursors due to the combination of vinyl iodide and vinyl sulfone moieties, essential building blocks for diverse synthetic manipulations. We hereby present the chemistry of β-iodovinyl sulfones, which can be classified into numerous sections based on the sulfonyl surrogates, and potential synthetic approaches are systematically outlined.

Abstract
A protocol for the construction of an angular tricyclic benzofuran skeleton based on the C-H activation strategy has been established. Different phthalide lactones on this skeleton can be easily assembled with various side chains by using C-H activation with aldehydes and subsequent reduction. This skeleton provides a versatile and crucial motif for the total synthesis of naturally occurring angular tricyclic benzofurans and their derivatives. Based on this protocol, the improved total syntheses of daldinin A and annullatin D were achieved in yields of 17.3 and 7.6%, respectively.

Abstract
The palladium-catalyzed C-H iodination of 1-arylpyridine N-oxides proceeded under electrochemical oxidation conditions using I2 as an iodine source. The reaction of isoquinoline N-oxides possessing various para- or meta-substituted aryl groups at the 1-position proceeded to give the corresponding iodination products. Electron-donating groups on the aryl group facilitated the reaction to give relatively high yields of the product. The reaction was also found to be applicable to 2-aryl-3-picoline N-oxides.

Abstract
Considering the wide occurrence and extensive application of organic chlorides in many research fields, the development of easy, practical and green chlorination methodologies is much needed. In the oxidative chlorination strategy, active chlorinating species can be in situ formed by the interaction of easily accessible chlorides such as NaCl, HCl, KCl, CHCl3, etc. and suitable oxidants. Among the established chlorination approaches, this strategy is an attractive one as it features the use of readily available, cheap and safe inorganic or organic chlorides, good atom economy of chlorine, and multiple choices of oxidants. This review summarizes the representative methodologies in the field of oxidative chlorination, covering 2013 to 2023.

Abstract
Herein, we report the Cu-complex catalyzed, native functional group-assisted, and TFA/NMF additives promoted (phenylsulfonyl)difluoromethylation of vinylic C(sp2 )-H bond of acrylamides. Using our in-home designed reagent, this reaction enables the construction of the C(sp2 )-CF2 SO2 Ph bond from simple C-H bond activation by copper catalysis under mild reaction conditions with total Z-selectivity. The versatility of utilized fluorinated group was illustrated by its conversion into value-added CF2 moieties as well as the remarkable =CHF residue. The performed experimental and computational mechanistic studies enabled to identify the true nature of active catalyst and substrate, as well as establish critical roles of TFA and NMF additives. In this reaction, the TFA acts as a promoter of the much-needed CuII /CuII →CuIII /CuI disproportionation, while the NMF facilitates the following ligand exchange and C-C coupling processes. We ruled out the generation of radical intermediates and established the C-H activation to be irreversible and the rate-determining step of the entire process.

Abstract
Herein, we disclose a facile and efficient electrochemical method for the dibromination of aryl amines by double functionalization of aromatic C(sp2 )-H (both para and ortho) under metal- and external oxidant-free conditions at room temperature for the first time. The reaction is demonstrated using 1,2-dibromoethane to dibrominate a wide range of N-substituted aryl amines in a simple setup with C(+)/Pt(-) electrodes under mild reaction conditions. This transformation proceeds smoothly with a broad substrate scope affording the valuable and versatile N-substituted 2,4-dibromoanilines in moderate to excellent yields with high regioselectivity. In this paired electrolysis, cathodic reduction of 1,2-DBE followed by anodic oxidation generates bromonium intermediates, which then couple with anilines to furnish the dibrominated products. It represents a distinctive approach to challenging redox-neutral reactions. The versatility of the electrochemical ortho-, para-dibromination was reflected by unique regioselectivities for challenging aryl amines and gram-scale electrosynthesis without the use of a stoichiometric oxidant or an activating agent.

Abstract
Influences of heavy metal exposure to the organohalide respiration process and the related molecular mechanism remain poorly understood. In this study, a non-obligate organohalide respiring bacterium, Pseudomonas sp. strain CP-1, was isolated and its molecular response to the five types of commonly existed heavy metal ions were thoroughly investigated. All types of heavy metal ions posed inhibitory effects on 2,4,6-trichlorophenol dechlorination activity and cell growth with the varied degree. Exposure to Cu (II) showed the most serious inhibitive effects on dechlorination even at the lowest concentration of 0.05 mg/L, while the inhibition by As (V) was the least with the removal kinetic constant k decreased to 0.05 under 50 mg/L. Further, multi-omics analysis found compared with Cu (II), As (V) exposure led to the insignificant downregulation of a variety of biosynthesis processes, which would be one possible account for the less inhibited activity. More importantly, the inhibited mechanisms on the organohalide respiration catabolism of strain CP-1 were firstly revealed. Cu (II) stress severely downregulated NADH generation during TCA cycle and electron donation of organohalide respiration process, which might decrease the reducing power required for organohalide respiration. While both Cu (II) and As (Ⅴ) inhibited substrate level phosphorylation during TCA cycle, as well as electron transfer and ATP generation during organohalide respiration. Meanwhile, CprA-2 was confirmed as the responsible reductive dehalogenase in charge of 2,4,6-TCP dechlorination, and transcriptional and proteomic studies confirmed the directly inhibited gene transcription and expression of CprA-2. The in-depth reveal of inhibitory effects and mechanism gave theoretical supports for alleviating heavy metal inhibition on organohalide respiration activity in groundwater co-contaminated with organohalides and heavy metals.

Abstract
The installation of the C-halogen bond at the ortho position of N-aryl amides and ureas represents a tool to prepare motifs that are ubiquitous in biologically active compounds. To construct such prevalent bonds, most methods require the use of precious metals and a multistep process. Here we report a novel protocol for the long-standing challenge of regioselective ortho halogenation of N-aryl amides and ureas using an oxidative halodeboronation. By harnessing the reactivity of boron over nitrogen, we merge carbonyl-directed borylation with consecutive halodeboronation, enabling the precise introduction of the C-X bond at the desired ortho position of N-aryl amides and ureas. This method offers an efficient, practical, and scalable solution for synthesizing halogenated N-heteroarenes under mild conditions, highlighting the superiority of boron reactivity in directing the regioselectivity of the reaction.

Abstract
Kinetic data based on 1 H NMR monitoring and computational studies indicate that in solution, pyrazole-containing iodonium triflates and silver(I) triflate bind to each other, and such an interplay results in the decrease of the total catalytic activity of the mixture of these Lewis acids compared to the separate catalysis of the Schiff condensation, the imine-isocyanide coupling, or the nucleophilic attack on a triple carbon-carbon bond. Moreover, the kinetic data indicate that such a cooperation with the silver(I) triflate results in prevention of decomposition of the iodonium salts during the reaction progress. XRD study confirms that the pyrazole-containing iodonium triflate coordinates to the silver(I) center via the pyrazole N atom to produce a rare example of a pentacoordinated trigonal bipyramidal dinuclear silver(I) complex featuring cationic ligands.

Abstract
AbstractMolecular aggregation affects the electronic interactions between molecules and has emerged as a powerful tool in material science. Aggregate effect finds wide applications in the research of new physical phenomena; however, its value for chemical reaction development has been far less explored. Herein, we report the development of aggregation‐enabled alkene insertion into carbon–halogen bonds. The spontaneous cleavage of C–X (X = Cl, Br, or I) bonds generates an intimate ion pair, which can be quickly captured by alkenes in an aggregated state. Additional catalysts or promoters are not necessary under such circumstances, and solvent quenching experiments indicate that the aggregated state is critical for achieving such sequences. The ionic insertion mode is supported by mechanistic studies, density functional theory calculations, and symmetry‐adapted perturbation theory analysis. Results also show that the non‐aggregated state may quench the transition state and terminate the insertion process.

Abstract
A new approach is proposed for the divergent and regioselective synthesis of (E)-2-bromo-1-phenylvinyl trifluoromethanesulfonates through alkyne difunctionalization by employing a compatible system of abundantly available alkynes, N-bromosuccinimide (NBS), and trimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate (TMSOTf) catalyzed by ruthenium(III) acetate [Ru(OAc)3]. It is a novel method for the preparation of vinyl triflate and it offers a fundamental basis for the development of advanced functional compounds, including drugs and organic functional materials. Unlike previously reported methods, the proposed protocol can tolerate a broad range of functional groups. Alkynes derived from bioactive molecules, such as l(-)-borneol, demonstrate the potential value of this new reaction in organic synthesis.

Abstract
Alkyl halides are versatile precursors to access diverse functional groups (FGs). Due to their lability, the development of surrogates for alkyl halides is strategically important for complex molecule synthesis. Given the stability and ease of derivatization inherent in common alkyl ketones, here we report a deacylative halogenation approach to convert various methyl ketones to the corresponding alkyl chlorides, bromides, and iodides. The reaction is driven by forming an aromatic byproduct, i.e., 1,2,4-triazole, in which N'-methylpicolinohydrazonamide (MPHA) is employed to form a prearomatic intermediate and halogen atom-transfer (XAT) reagents are used to quench the alkyl radical intermediate. The reaction is efficient in yielding primary and secondary alkyl halides from a wide range of methyl ketones with broad FG tolerance. It also works for complex natural-product-derived and fluoro-containing substrates. In addition, one-pot conversions of methyl ketones to various other FGs and annulations with alkenes and alkynes through deacylative halogenation are realized. Moreover, an unusual iterative homologation of alkyl iodides is also demonstrated. Finally, mechanistic studies reveal an intriguing double XAT process for the deacylative iodination reaction, which could have implications beyond this work.

Abstract
It is critical to discover a non-noble metal catalyst with high catalytic activity capable of replacing palladium in electrochemical reduction. In this work, a highly efficient single-atom Co-N/C catalyst was synthesized with metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as a precursor for electrochemical dehalogenation. X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) revealed that Co-N/C exhibited a Co-N4 configuration, which had more active sites and a faster charge-transfer rate and thus enabled the efficient removal of florfenicol (FLO) at a wide pH, achieving a rate constant 3.5 and 2.1 times that of N/C and commercial Pd/C, respectively. The defluorination and dechlorination efficiencies were 67.6 and 95.6%, respectively, with extremely low Co leaching (6 μg L-1), low energy consumption (22.7 kWh kg-1), and high turnover frequency (TOF) (0.0350 min-1), demonstrating excellent dehalogenation performance. Spiking experiments and density functional theory (DFT) verified that Co-N4 was the active site and had the lowest energy barrier for forming atomic hydrogen (H*) (ΔGH*). Capture experiments, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), electrochemical tests, and in situ Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) proved that H* and direct electron transfer were responsible for dehalogenation. Toxicity assessment indicated that FLO toxicity decreased significantly after dehalogenation. This work develops a non-noble metal catalyst with broad application prospects in electrocatalytic dehalogenation.

Abstract
Unactivated C(sp3)-H bonds are the most challenging substrate class for transition metal-catalyzed C-H halogenation. Recently, the Yu group [Liu, T.; Myers, M. C.; Yu, J. Q. Angew. Chem., Int. Ed.2017, 56 (1), 306-309] has demonstrated that a CuII/phenanthroline catalyst and BrN3, generated in situ from NBS and TMSN3 precursors, can achieve selective C-H bromination distal to a directing group. The current understanding of the mechanism of this reaction has left numerous questions unanswered. Here, we investigated the mechanism of Cu-catalyzed C(sp3)-H bromination with distal site selectivity using density functional theory calculations. We found that this reaction starts with the Br-atom transfer from BrN3 to the Cu center that occurs via a small energy barrier at the singlet-triplet state seam of crossing. In the course of this reaction, the presence of the N-H bond in the substrate is critically important and acts as a directing group for enhancing the stability of the catalyst-substrate interaction and for the recruitment of the substrate to the catalyst. The required C-centered radical substrate formation occurs via direct C-H dehydrogenation by the Cu-coordinated N3 radical, rather than via the previously proposed N-H bond dehydrogenation and then the 1,5-H transfer from the γ-(C-H) bond to the N-radical center pathway. The C-H bond activation by the azide radical is a regioselectivity-controlling step. The following bromination of the C-centered radical by the Cu-coordinated bromine completes the product formation. This reaction step is the rate-limiting step, occurs at the singlet-to-triplet state seam of the crossing point, and is exergonic.

Abstract
Aryne insertions into the carbon-iodine bond of heteroaryl iodides has been achieved for the first time. This novel reaction provides an efficient pathway for the synthesis of valuable building blocks 2-iodoheterobiaryls from heteroaryl iodides and o-silylaryl triflates in excellent regioselectivity. The copper(I) catalyst, which bears a N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligand, is essential to accomplish the reaction. Control reactions and DFT calculations indicate that the coordination of copper, as a Lewis acid, with nitrogen atoms of heteroaryl iodides mediates the insertion of arynes into heteroaryl carbon-iodine bonds.

Abstract
Herein, recent developments for Selectfluor-mediated C-H functionalization of N-heteroarenes are described. This type of C-H bond activation is an attractive and competitive alternative to traditional methodologies, allowing the functionalization of a variety of chemical functions. In addition, Selectfluor is a more sustainable and economically accessible oxidant compared with expensive/toxic metals or hazardous peroxides. For a practical understanding, the current review classified systematically the reported strategies in four subsections as follows: (1) carbon-carbon formation, (2) carbon-nitrogen bond formation, (3) carbon-chalcogen bond, and (4) carbon-halogen bond formation. Mechanistic aspects and reaction conditions are fully discussed to provide an understanding of the aspects that govern C-H functionalization in N-heteroarenes mediated by Selectfluor.

Abstract
Polychlorinated (hetero)arenes have shown great promise for organic optoelectronics applications. However, the harsh synthetic routes for polychlorinated compounds and the possible luminescence quenching from the compact intermolecular π-π stacking induced by chlorine atoms limit their investigations and applications in luminescent materials. Herein, two isomeric polychlorinated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) compounds JY-1-Cl and JY-2-Cl consisting of rigidified aryl ketones and amine are designed and synthesized under mild conditions through nucleophilic chlorination intermediated by an electron donor-acceptor complex. Among them, as a result of the strong π-π interactions induced by chlorine atoms, JY-2-Cl exhibits bright monomer and dimer emissions with dual thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) characters. Notably, compared with the non-chlorinated compounds, a high photoluminescence quantum yield is maintained after introducing multiple chlorine atoms into JY-2-Cl. The first dual-TADF organic light-emitting diodes are also successfully fabricated with maximum external quantum efficiency as high as 29.1 % by employing JY-2-Cl as emitter. This work presents a new paradigm and synthesis of polychlorinated amine-carbonyl PAHs and demonstrates the great potential of the chlorinated materials for luminescent applications.

Abstract
Fluorine-containing molecules have attracted much attention in medicinal, agrochemical, and materials sciences because they offer unique physical and biological properties. Therefore, many efficient fluorination reactions have been developed over the years. Recent advancements in fluorination chemistry have expanded the range of substrates, and regioselectivity/stereoselectivity control has also been achieved. Ring-opening fluorination is an efficient method to construct complex fluorine-containing molecules with diversity, starting from simple cyclic compounds. This review aims to summarize developments in ring-opening fluorination, particularly with larger-sized cyclic compounds. Fluorine introduction and bond cleavage of cyclic compounds such as carbocycles, heterocycles, and aromatics provide efficient access to fluorine-containing compounds that are difficult to be synthesized by conventional methods.

Abstract
Methods to efficiently synthesize organosilanes are valuable in the fields of synthetic chemistry and materials science. During the past decades, boron conversion has become a generic and powerful approach for constructing carbon-carbon and other carbon-heteroatom bonds, but its potential application in forming carbon-silicon remains unexplored. Herein, we describe an alkoxide base-promoted deborylative silylation of benzylic organoboronates, geminal bis(boronates) or alkyltriboronates, allowing for straightforward access to synthetically valuable organosilanes. This selective deborylative methodology exhibits operational simplicity, broad substrate scope, excellent functional group compatibility and convenient scalability, providing an effective and complementary platform for the generation of diversified benzyl silanes and silylboronates. Detailed experimental results and calculated studies revealed an unusual mechanistic feature of this C-Si bond formation.

Abstract
A highly regio- and chemoselective three-component assembling of N-pyrimidyl indoles with dienes and formaldehyde in the presence of a Co(III) catalyst was demonstrated. The scope of the reaction was investigated with a variety of indole derivatives to synthesize substituted homoallylic alcohols. Both butadiene and isoprene units were compatible with the reaction. To understand the reaction mechanism, various investigations were carried out, and suggested the plausibility of a reaction mechanism involving C-H bond activation as a key step.
