Abstract
PRMT5, a type 2 arginine methyltransferase, has a critical role in regulating cell growth and survival in cancer. With the aim of developing MTA-cooperative PRMT5 inhibitors suitable for MTAP-deficient cancers, herein we report our efforts to develop novel "MTA-cooperative" compounds identified through a high-throughput biochemical screening approach. Optimization of hits was achieved through structure-based design with a focus on improvement of oral drug-like properties. Bioisosteric replacement of the original thiazole guanidine headgroup, spirocyclization of the isoindolinone amide scaffold to both configurationally and conformationally lock the bioactive form, and fine-tuning of the potency, MTA cooperativity, and DMPK properties through specific substitutions of the azaindole headgroup were conducted. We have identified an orally available in vivo lead compound, 28 ("AZ-PRMT5i-1"), which shows sub-10 nM PRMT5 cell potency, >50-fold MTA cooperativity, suitable DMPK properties for oral dosing, and significant PRMT5-driven in vivo efficacy in several MTAP-deficient preclinical cancer models.

Abstract
We report the asymmetric total synthesis of dixiamycin C (1) through the shrewd alliance of the naturally occurring monomer xiamycin A methyl ester (5) and its bromo derivative (31) following a late-stage Buchwald-Macmillan's C-N bond formation via a photoredox electron transfer approach with a less reactive carbazole nitrogen. The key step in the synthesis of monomer xiamycin A methyl ester (5) involves Buchwald's Pd(II)-mediated aerobic dehydrogenative C-N bond formation, Beckmann rearrangement, and ipso-acetylation of an electron-rich aromatic ring of an abietane core.

Abstract
Pyridine, a widespread aromatic heterocycle, features a sp2-hybridized nitrogen atom that can readily coordinate to metals, leading to distinctive achievements in catalysis. In stark contrast, π-coordination of pyridine and derivatives with transition metals is notably scarce, and the involvement of such activation mode in catalysis remains to be developed. Herein, we present amination reactions of aminopyridines that leverages the reversible π coordination with a ruthenium catalyst as the arenophilic π acid, rather than relying on the conventional κ-N coordination. Specifically, a transient η6-pyridine complex functions as the electrophile in the nucleophilic aromatic substitution with amines, providing a diverse array of products via the cleavage of the pyridyl C-N bond. In addition, this method can be employed to incorporate chiral amines and 15N-labeled amines.

Abstract
Alkene carbofunctionalization reactions have great potential for synthesizing complex molecules and constructing complex structures in natural products and medicinal chemistry. Recently, dual photoredox/nickel catalysis has emerged as a novel strategy for alkene carbofunctionalization. Nickel offers numerous advantages over other transition metals, such as cost-effectiveness, abundance, and low toxicity, and moreover, it has many oxidation states. Nickel catalysts exhibit excellent catalytic activity in dual photoredox/transition metal catalysis, facilitating the formation of carbon-carbon or carbon-heteroatom bonds in organic transformations. This review highlights the latest advancements in dual photoredox/nickel-catalyzed alkene carbofunctionalizations and includes the literature published from 2020 to 2024.

Abstract
Palladium-catalyzed cross-couplings remain among the most robust methodologies to form carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom bonds. In particular, carbon-nitrogen (C-N) couplings (Buchwald-Hartwig aminations) find widespread use in fine chemicals industries. The use of base in these reactions is critical for catalyst activation and proton sequestration. Base selection also plays an important role in process design, as strongly basic conditions can impact sensitive stereocenters and result in erosion of stereochemical purity. Herein we investigate the role of a Pd catalyst in suppressing base-mediated epimerization of a sultam stereocenter during a C-N cross-coupling reaction to access the RORγ inhibitor GDC-0022. Online high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS) was employed to acquire reaction time course profiles and to delineate epimerization behavior, identify decomposition pathways, and monitor Pd-containing species. Our ability to monitor organopalladium complexes in real time by HPLC-MS provided strong evidence that the degree of epimerization was correlated to the Pd speciation in solution. Specifically, Pd(II) complexes were associated with mitigating epimerization of six-membered sultams. Additional studies showed that the suppression of epimerization in the presence of Pd(II) can impact Pd-catalyzed reactions of other substrates such as enolizable ketones, thus providing practical insight on the execution and optimization of such processes.

Abstract
Activation of phenols by a Ru-catalyst allows for the resulting η5-phenoxo complex to selectively react with a variety of nucleophiles under mechanochemical conditions. Conversion of phenolic hydroxy groups without derivatization is important for late-stage modifications of pharmaceuticals and in the context of lignin-material processing. We present a one-step, Ru-catalyzed cross-coupling of phenols with boronic acids, aryl trialkoxysilanes and potassium benzoyltrifluoroborates under mechano-chemical conditions. The protocol accepts a wide scope of starting materials and allows for gram-scale synthesis in excellent yields. The developed approach constitutes a very interesting and waste-limiting alternative to the known methods.

Abstract
The nitro moiety is an indispensable functional group in organic synthesis due to its facile introduction and reduction to the corresponding amines for a plethora of organic transformations. Owing to its distinct electronegative and conventional properties, it has been used for activated aromatic nucleophilic substitution (SNAr) reactions, Smiles reactions, Henry reactions, acyl anion equivalents, etc. Recently, the excellent photochemical properties of nitroarenes have been rediscovered by several groups, and their untapped potential in organic synthesis under UV or visible light irradiation has been exploited. Photoexcited nitroarenes can undergo facile reduction to amines, azo-coupling, metal-free reductive C-N coupling with boronic acids via a 1,2-boronate shift, hydrogen atom transfer (HAT), oxygen atom transfer for anaerobic oxidation of organic molecules, molecular editing via nitrene intermediates, denitrative coupling of β-nitrostyrene, radical α-alkylation of nitroalkanes, etc. They have also been used as a photolabile protecting group in medicinal chemistry and chemical biology applications. Here, we summarise the recent findings on visible-light-mediated transformations involving nitro-containing organic molecules.

Abstract
Luminescence imaging is a powerful and versatile technique for investigating cell physiology and pathology in living systems, making significant contributions to life science research and clinical diagnosis. In recent years, luminescent transition metal complexes have gained significant attention for diagnostic and therapeutic applications due to their unique photophysical and photochemical properties. In this Review, we provide a comprehensive overview of the recent development of luminescent transition metal complexes for bioimaging and biosensing applications, with a focus on transition metal centers with a d6, d8, and d10 electronic configuration. We elucidate the structure-property relationships of luminescent transition metal complexes, exploring how their structural characteristics can be manipulated to control their biological behavior such as cellular uptake, localization, biocompatibility, pharmacokinetics, and biodistribution. Furthermore, we introduce the various design strategies that leverage the interesting photophysical properties of luminescent transition metal complexes for a wide variety of biological applications, including autofluorescence-free imaging, multimodal imaging, organelle imaging, biological sensing, microenvironment monitoring, bioorthogonal labeling, bacterial imaging, and cell viability assessment. Finally, we provide insights into the challenges and perspectives of luminescent transition metal complexes for bioimaging and biosensing applications, as well as their use in disease diagnosis and treatment evaluation.

Abstract
Photoelectrochemical (PEC) cell is an ideal platform for organic transformation because of its green benefits and minimal energy consumption. As an emerging methodology, the reaction types of photoelectrocatalytic organic synthesis (PECOS) are limited to simple oxidation and C-H activation at current stage. Metal catalysis for the construction of C(sp2)-N bonds has not been touched yet in PECOS. We introduce here a PEC method that successfully engages Ni catalysis for the mild production of aniline derivatives. Experimental and computational investigations elucidate that the addition of photoanode-generated amine radical to Ni catalyst avoids the sluggish nucleophilic attack, enabling the reaction to proceed at an ultra-low potential (-0.4 V vs. Ag/AgNO3) and preventing the overoxidation of products in conventional electrochemical synthesis. This synergistic catalysis strategy exhibits good functional group tolerance and wide substrate scope on both aryl halides and amines, by which some important natural products and pharmaceutical chemicals have been successfully modified.

Abstract
The polynuclear complex [{μ-C1,C4,N,N″-C6H2{C(H)=N(nBu)}2-2,5}{Pd(μ-OAc)}]2 (I) reacts with tbbpy (4,4'-di-tert-butyl-2,2'-bipyridine) and TlOTf to form the dinuclear complex [{μ-C1,C4,N,N″-C6H2{C(H)=N(nBu)}2-2,5}{Pd(tbbpy)}2] (1). The hydrolysis of I with acetic acid in a 5:1 acetone/water mixture, in the presence of two equivalents of tbbpy and excess NaX (X = Br, I), yields the dipalladated terephthalaldehyde complexes [C6H2{PdX(tbbpy)}2-1,4-(CHO)2-2,5] [X = Br (2a), X = I (2b)], which are the first fully characterized complexes of this type. The reaction of 2a,b with CO results in the insertion of CO into both aryl-Pd bonds, forming [C6H2{C(O){PdX(tbbpy)}}2-1,4-(CHO)2-2,5] [X = Br (3a), X = I (3b)], which are the first examples of complexes with CO inserted into two separate aryl-metal bonds involving the same ligand. The bromo complex 2a reacts with excess XylNC in acetone, causing the precipitation of the dinuclear complex 2,3,6,7-tetrahydrobenzo[1,2-c:4,5-c']dipyrrole-1,5-dione-2,6-dixylyl-3,7-bis{=C(NHXyl)-C(=NXyl)-[PdBr(CNXyl)2]} (4), which is the result of the insertion of three molecules of the isocyanide into each aryl-Pd bond and the nucleophilic attack of one of them at each formyl group. When complex 4 reacts with TlOTf and residual water in 1,2-dichloroethane at 70 °C, depalladation occurs, and the organic compound 2,3,6,7-tetrahydrobenzo[1,2-c:4,5-c']dipyrrole-1,5-dione-2,6-dixylyl-3,7-bis{=C(NHXyl)-C(O)NHXyl} (5) can be isolated. The crystal structures of 1·4CHCl3, 4·2CH2Cl2·3hexane, and 5·2CDCl3 have been determined by X-ray crystallography.

Abstract
Visible light mediated decarboxylative functionalization of carboxylic acids and their derivatives has recently emerged as a novel and powerful toolkit for small molecule activation in diverse carbon-carbon and carbon-hetero bond forming reactions. Naturally abundant highly functionalized bench-stable carboxylic acid analogs have been employed as promising alternatives to non-trivial organometallic reagents for mild and eco-benign synthetic transformation with traceless CO2 by-products. In this highlight article, we focus on the development of various photodecarboxylative functionalization strategies along with intra/inter-molecular cyclization via concerted single electron transfer (SET) or energy transfer (ET) pathways. Moreover, widely explored carboxylic acids are systematically classified here into four categories; i.e., α-keto, aliphatic, α,β-unsaturated, and aromatic analogs for a concise overview to the readership. The association of decarboxylative radical species with coupling partners to construct C-C and C-N/O/S/P/X bonds for each analogous acid has been presented in brief.

Abstract
Pyrroloiminoquinone alkaloids are a large class of natural products that display a wide range of biological activities. Synthetic approaches to these natural products typically rely on a common late-stage C10-oxygenated pyrroloiminoquinone intermediate, but these strategies often lead to lengthy synthetic sequences that are not amenable to divergent syntheses. We devised an alternative approach aimed at the early introduction of the C10 nitrogen, which we hypothesized would enable late-stage diversification. This strategy hinged upon a Larock/Buchwald-Hartwig annulation/cyclization to quickly access the core of these alkaloids. We report the development of this cascade process, which was facilitated by a dual ligand system in addition to selective functionalization of the key intermediate, to provide efficient syntheses of makaluvamines A, C, and D and isobatzelline B, and the first total synthesis of makaluvamine N.

Abstract
A magnetically isolable iron oxide nanoparticles is introduced as an efficient heterogeneous photocatalyst for non-directed C-H arylation employing aryl diazonium salts as the aryl precursors. This first-row transition metal-based photocatalyst revealed versatile activities and is applicable to a wide range of substrates, demonstrating brilliant efficacy and superior recyclability. Detailed catalytic characterization describes the physical properties and redox behavior of the Fe-catalyst. Adequate control experiments helped to establish the radical-based mechanism for the C-H arylation.

Abstract
Dibenzotriazonine represent a new class of nine-membered cyclic azobenzenes with a nitrogen atom embedded in the bridging chain. To enable future applications of this photoactive backbone, we propose in this study the synthesis of mono- and dihalogenated triazonines, that allow the late-stage introduction of different functionalized aryl groups and heteroatoms (N, O, and P) via palladium-catalyzed reactions. Indeed, different diphenylphosphoryl-triazonines were synthesized with functional groups such as aniline or phenol. Bis(diphenylphosphoryl)phenyl mono- and bis-carbamate-triazonines were also isolated in good yields.

Abstract
As an emerging material with the potential to combine the high efficiency of homogeneous catalysts and high stability and recyclability of heterogeneous catalysts, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have been viewed as one of the candidates to produce catalysts of the next generation. Herein, we heterogenized the highly active mono(phosphine)-Pd complex on surface of UiO-66 MOF, as a catalyst for Suzuki and Heck cross coupling reactions. The successful immobilization of these Pd-monophosphine complexes on MOF surface to form UiO-66-PPh2-Pd was characterized and confirmed via comprehensive set of analytical methods. UiO-66-PPh2-Pd showed high activity and selectivity for both Suzuki and Heck Cross Coupling Reactions. This strategy enabled facile access to mono(phosphine) complexes which are challenging to design and require multistep synthesis in homogeneous systems, paving the way for future MOF catalysts applications by similar systems.

Abstract
Despite the extensive development of non-noble metals for the N-alkylation of amines with alcohols, the exploitation of catalysts with high selectivity, activity, and stability still faces challenges. The controllable modification of single-atom sites through asymmetric coordination with a second heteroatom offers new opportunities for enhancing the intrinsic activity of transition metal single-atom catalysts. Here, we prepared the asymmetric N/P hybrid coordination of single-atom Co1-N3P1 by absorbing the Co-P complex on ZIF-8 using a concise impregnation-pyrolysis process. The catalyst exhibits ultrahigh activity and selectivity in the N-alkylation of aniline and benzyl alcohol, achieving a turnover number (TON) value of 3480 and a turnover frequency (TOF) value of 174-h. The TON value is 1 order of magnitude higher than the reported catalysts and even 37-fold higher than that of the homogeneous catalyst CoCl2(PPh3)2. Furthermore, the catalyst maintains its high activity and selectivity even after 6 cycles of usage. Controlling experiments and isotope labeling experiments confirm that in the asymmetric Co1-N3P1 system, the N-alkylation of aniline with benzyl alcohol proceeds via a transfer hydrogenation mechanism involving the monohydride route. Theoretical calculations prove that the superior activity of asymmetric Co1-N3P1 is attributed to the higher d-band energy level of Co sites, which leads to a more stable four-membered ring transition state and a lower reaction energy barrier compared to symmetrical Co1-N4.

Abstract
Catalytic intermolecular olefin hydroamination is an enabling synthetic strategy that offers direct and atom-economical access to a variety of nitrogen-containing compounds from abundant feedstocks. However, despite numerous advances in catalyst design and reaction development, hydroamination of N-H azoles with unactivated olefins remains an unsolved problem in synthesis. We report a dual phosphine and photoredox catalytic protocol for the hydroamination of numerous structurally diverse and medicinally relevant N-H azoles with unactivated olefins. Hydroamination proceeds with high anti-Markovnikov regioselectivity and N-site selectivity. The mild conditions and high functional group tolerance of the reaction permit the rapid construction of molecular complexity and late-stage functionalization of bioactive compounds. N-H bond activation is proposed to proceed via polar addition of the N-H azole to a phosphine radical cation, followed by P-N α-scission from a phosphoranyl radical intermediate. Reactivity and N-site selectivity are classified by azole N-H BDFE and nitrogen-centered radical spin density, respectively, which can serve as a useful predictive aid in extending the reaction to unseen azoles.

Abstract
In this Letter, we report that the air-stable "naked nickel" [Ni(4-tBustb)3] is a competent catalyst in thermal C-N bond formation between (hetero)aryl bromides and N-based nucleophiles. The catalytic system is characterized by a "naked nickel" complex and Zn and by the absence of external light sources, photocatalysts, exogenous ligands, and electrical setups. Upon application of this method, various heteroaryls bearing Lewis-basic heteroatoms can be accommodated and directly aminated with a set of primary and secondary amines.

Abstract
Electron-rich diarylamines, exemplified by anisole-derived amines, play pivotal roles in process chemistry, pharmaceuticals, and materials. In this study, homo-diarylamines were synthesized directly from the C-H activation of electron-rich arenes by sodium nitrate/trifluoroacetic acid and the successive treatment of iron powder. Mechanistic investigations reveal that nitrosoarene serves as the reaction intermediate, and the formation of the second C-N bond between the resulting nitrosoarene and electron-rich arene is catalyzed by the nitrosonium ion (NO+). Thus, hetero-diarylamines were synthesized using preformed nitrosoarenes and various electron-rich arenes. This reaction complements a range of cross-coupling reactions catalyzed by transition metal catalysts.

Abstract
The conversion of aryl halides to primary arylamines with a convenient and inexpensive source of ammonia has been a long-standing synthetic challenge. Aqueous ammonia would be the most convenient and least expensive form of ammonia, but such a palladium-catalyzed amination reaction with a high concentration of water faces challenges concerning catalyst stability and competing hydroxylation, and palladium-catalyzed reactions with this practical reagent are rare. Further, most reactions with ammonia to form primary amines are conducted with tert-butoxide base, but reactions with ammonium hydroxide would contain hydroxide as base. Thus, ammonia surrogates, ammonia in organic solvents, and ammonium salts have been used under anhydrous conditions instead with varying levels of selectivity for the primary amine. We report the palladium-catalyzed amination of aryl and heteroaryl chlorides and bromides with aqueous ammonia and a hydroxide base to form the primary arylamine with high selectivity. The palladium catalyst containing a new dialkyl biheteroaryl phosphine ligand (KPhos) suppresses both the formation of aryl alcohol and diarylamine side products. Mechanistic studies with a soluble hydroxide base revealed turnover-limiting reductive elimination of the arylamine and an equilibrium between arylpalladium amido and hydroxo complexes prior to the turnover-limiting step.

Abstract
This work presents an innovative approach focusing on fine-tuning the coordination environment of atomically dispersed cobalt catalysts for tandem synthesis of primary benzylamines from oxidized lignin model compounds. By meticulously regulating the Co-N coordination environment, the activity of these catalysts in the hydrogenolysis and reductive amination reactions was effectively controlled. Notably, our study demonstrates that, in contrast to cobalt nanoparticle catalysts, atomically dispersed cobalt catalysts exhibit precise control of the sequence of hydrogenolysis and reductive amination reactions. Particularly, the CoN3 catalyst with a triple Co-N coordination number achieved a remarkable 94% yield in the synthesis of primary benzylamine. To our knowledge, there is no previous documentation of the synthesis of primary benzylamines from lignin dimer model compounds. Our study highlights a promising one-pot route for sustainable production of nitrogen-containing aromatic chemicals from lignin.

Abstract
An asymmetric intramolecular spiro-amination to high steric hindering α-C-H bond of 1,3-dicarbonyl via nitrene transfer using inactive aryl azides has been carried out by developing a novel Cp*Ir(III)-SPDO (spiro-pyrrolidine oxazoline) catalyst, thereby enabling the first successful construction of structurally rigid spiro-quaternary indolinone cores with moderate to high yields and excellent enantioselectivities. DFT computations support the presence of double bridging H-F bonds between [SbF6]- and both the ligand and substrate, which favors the plane-differentiation of the enol π-bond for nitrenoid attacking. These findings open up numerous opportunities for the development of new asymmetric nitrene transfer systems.

Abstract
Due to the expanding applications of icosahedral carboranes in medicinal and materials chemistry research, their functionalizations have become one of the central themes in boron-rich cluster chemistry. Although several strategies for incorporating nitrogen-containing nucleophiles on a single boron vertex of the icosahedral carboranes (C2B10H12) have been developed, methods for preparing clusters with vicinal B-N moieties are still lacking. The steric bulk of icosahedral carboranes and disparate electronic and steric nature of the N-containing groups have rendered the vicinal diamination challenging. In this article, we show how a developed Pd-catalyzed process is used to incorporate an array of NH-heterocycles, anilines, and heteroanilines with various electronic and steric profiles onto the vicinal boron vertices of a meta-carborane cluster via sequential or one-pot fashion. Importantly, oxidative cyclizations of the cross-coupling products with indoles and pyrroles appended to boron vertices generate a previously unknown class of all-boron-vertex bound carborane-fused six- and seven-membered ring heterocycles. Photophysical studies of the meta-carborane-fused heterocycles show that these structures can exhibit luminescence with high quantum yields and are amenable to further manipulations.

Abstract
We report a general and functional-group-tolerant method for the Cu-catalyzed amination of base-sensitive aryl bromides including substrates possessing acidic functional groups and small five-membered heteroarenes. The results presented herein substantially expand the scope of Cu-catalyzed C-N coupling reactions. The combination of L8, an anionic N1,N2-diarylbenzene-1,2-diamine ligand, along with the mild base NaOTMS leads to the formation of a stable yet reactive catalyst that resists deactivation from coordination to heterocycles or charged intermediates. This system enables the use of low catalyst and ligand loadings. Exploiting the differences in nucleophile deprotonation in C-O and C-N coupling reactions catalyzed by Cu·L8 we developed a method to chemoselectively N- and O-arylate a variety of amino alcohol substrates. Employing NaOt-Bu as the base resulted exclusively in C-O coupling when the amino alcohols featured primary alcohols and more hindered amines or aniline groups. Utilizing NaOTMS enabled the ability to override the steric-based selectivity of these reactions completely and exclusively promoted C-N coupling regardless of the structure of the amino alcohol. The ability to invert the observed chemoselectivity is distinct from previously described methods that require protecting group manipulations or rely entirely on steric effects to control reactivity. These results substantially improve the scope of Cu-catalyzed C-N coupling reactions using N1,N2-diarylbenzene-1,2-diamine ligands and introduce a new chemoselective method to arylate amino alcohols.

Abstract
Sequential oxidative cleavage and double-Mannich reactions enable the stereoselective conversion of simple norbornenes into complex alkaloid-like structures. The products undergo a wide range of derivatization reactions, including regioselective enol triflate formation/cross-coupling sequences and highly efficient conversion to an unusual tricyclic 8,5,5-fused lactam. Overall, the process represents a formal one-atom aza-ring expansion with concomitant bridging annulation, making it of interest for the broader derivatization of alkene feedstocks.

Abstract
Saturated N-heterocycles are found in numerous bioactive natural products and are prevalent in pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. While there are many methods for their synthesis, each has its limitations, such as scope and functional group tolerance. Herein, we describe a rhodium-catalyzed transfer hydrogenation of pyridinium salts to access N-(hetero)aryl piperidines. The reaction proceeds via a reductive transamination process, involving the initial formation of a dihydropyridine intermediate via reduction of the pyridinium ion with HCOOH, which is intercepted by water and then hydrolyzed. Subsequent reductive amination with an exogenous (hetero)aryl amine affords an N-(hetero)aryl piperidine. This reductive transamination method thus allows for access of N-(hetero)aryl piperidines from readily available pyridine derivatives, expanding the toolbox of dearomatization and skeletal editing.

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
Direct reduction of unactivated alkyl halides for C(sp3)-N couplings under mild conditions presents a significant challenge in organic synthesis due to their low reduction potential. Herein, we introduce an in situ formed pyridyl-carbene-ligated copper (I) catalyst that is capable of abstracting halide atom and generating alkyl radicals for general C(sp3)-N couplings under visible light. Control experiments confirmed that the mono-pyridyl-carbene-ligated copper complex is the active species responsible for catalysis. Mechanistic investigations using transient absorption spectroscopy across multiple decades of timescales revealed ultrafast intersystem crossing (260 ps) of the photoexcited copper (I) complexes into their long-lived triplet excited states (>2 μs). The non-Stern-Volmer quenching dynamics of the triplets by unactivated alkyl halides suggests an association between copper (I) complexes and alkyl halides, thereby facilitating the abstraction of halide atoms via inner-sphere single electron transfer (SET), rather than outer-sphere SET, for the formation of alkyl radicals for subsequent cross couplings.

Abstract
The development of luminescent molecular materials has advanced rapidly in recent decades, primarily driven by the synthesis of novel emissive compounds and a deeper understanding of excited-state mechanisms. Herein, we report a streamlined synthetic approach to light-emitting diazapolyoxa- and polyazamacrocycles N2CnOxQ and NyCnQ (n = 3-10; x = 2, 3; y = 2-5), incorporating a 2,3-diphenylquinoxaline residue (DPQ). This synthetic strategy based on macrocyclization through Pd-catalyzed amination reaction yields the target macrocycles in good or high yields (46-92%), enabling precise control over their structural parameters. A key role of the PhPF-tBu ligand belonging to the JosiPhos series in this macrocyclization was elucidated through DFT computation. This macrocyclization reaction eliminates the need for complex protecting-deprotecting procedures of secondary amine groups, offering a convenient and scalable method for the preparation of target compounds. Moreover, it boasts a potentially broad substrate scope, making it promising for structure-properties studies within photophysics, sensor development, and material synthesis. Photophysical properties of representative macrocycles were investigated, employing spectroscopic techniques and DFT computation. It was demonstrated that DPQ-containing macrocycles display aggregation-induced emission in a DCM-hexane solvent mixture despite the presence of flexible tethers within their structures. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis of a representative compound N2C8O3Q allowed us to gain deeper insight into its molecular structure and AIE behaviour. The emissive aggregates of the N2C10O3Q macrocycle were immobilized on filter paper yielding AIE-exhibiting test strips for measuring acidity in vapors and in aqueous media.

Abstract
A ruthenium-catalyzed reductive amination via asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (ATH) has been used to perform an efficient dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR) of N-aryl 2-formyl pyrroles decorated with a phosphine moiety positioned at the ortho' position. The strategy relies on the labilization of the stereogenic axis in the substrate facilitated by a transient Lewis acid-base interaction (LABI) between the carbonyl carbon and the phosphorus center. The reaction features broad substrate scope of aliphatic amines and N-aryl pyrrole scaffolds, and proceeds under very mild conditions to afford P,N atropisomers in good to high yields and excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99 % ee) for both diphenyl and dicyclohexylphosphino derivatives.

Abstract
We report a novel and environmentally friendly method for the ipso-bromination of arylboronic acids by exploiting the oxone/KBr system. We discovered that CuBr can catalyze the reaction and increase the yield from 63 to 97%. We believe that CuBr might catalyze the in situ generation of HOBr from oxone/KBr. The mild reaction condition permits tolerance of a diverse array of functional groups with exclusive regio- and chemoselectivity and allows low-cost large-scale reaction without explosion risk.

Abstract
A hybrid composite based on π-electron rich reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and mesoporous silica (SiO2) was prepared and decorated with copper species to afford a ternary nanocomposite material (Cu-CuO@rGO-SiO2). This copper-based nanocomposite was successfully used as a robust and multi-tasking heterogeneous catalyst for most common cross-coupling reactions (e.g. C-S, C-O and C-N coupling). A broad range of catalytic activities are believed to be originated from the synergism of different co-existing copper species (Cu(0) and CuO) and facile charge transfer from the metal ions towards rGO-SiO2 matrices, as established from XPS and other studies.

Abstract
The C(sp3)-N bond is ubiquitous in natural products, pharmaceuticals, biologically active molecules and functional materials. Consequently, the development of practical and efficient methods for C(sp3)-N bond formation has attracted more and more attention. Compared to the conventional ionic pathway-based thermal methods, photochemical processes that proceed through radical mechanisms by merging photoredox and transition-metal catalyses have emerged as powerful and alternative tools for C(sp3)-N bond formation. In this review, recent advances in the burgeoning field of C(sp3)-N bond formation via metallaphotoredox catalysis have been highlighted. The contents of this review are categorized according to the transition metals used (copper, nickel, cobalt, palladium, and iron) together with photocatalysis. Emphasis is placed on methodology achievements and mechanistic insight, aiming to inspire chemists to invent more efficient radical-involved C(sp3)-N bond-forming reactions.

Abstract
N-centered nucleophilicity increases upon alkylation, and thus selective partial alkylation of ammonia and primary amines can be challenging: Poor selectivity and overalkylation are often observed. Here we introduce N-aminopyridinium salts as ammonia surrogates for the synthesis of secondary amines via self-limiting alkylation chemistry. Readily available N-aryl-N-aminopyridinium salts engage in N-alkylation and in situ depyridylation to afford secondary aryl-alkyl amines without any overalkylation products. The method overcomes classical challenges in selective amine alkylation by accomplishing alkylation via transient, highly nucleophilic pyridinium ylide intermediates and can be applied in the context of complex molecular scaffolds. These findings establish N-aminopyridinium salts as ammonia synthons in synthetic chemistry and a strategy to control the extent of amine alkylation.

Abstract
Selective synthesis of primary amines from nitriles is challenging in synthetic chemistry due to the possible en-route generation of various amines and imines. Herein, we report a practical and operationally simple MOtBu-mediated (M=Na, K) transfer hydrogenation of nitriles to the corresponding primary amines with a relatively unexplored sacrificial hydrogen source (dimethylamine borane). The strategy encompasses a broad substrate scope under transition metal-free conditions and does not require any solvent. The mechanistic investigation was performed with the aid of control experiments and spectroscopic studies. The GC analysis of the reaction mixture exhibited the evolution of the H2 gas. Additionally, detailed computational calculations were undertaken to shed light on the possible intermediates and transition states involved during the present protocol.

Abstract
Alcohols are among the most abundant chemical feedstocks, yet they remain vastly underutilized as coupling partners in transition metal catalysis. Herein, we describe a copper metallaphotoredox manifold for the open shell deoxygenative coupling of alcohols with N-nucleophiles to forge C(sp3)-N bonds, a linkage of high value in pharmaceutical agents that is challenging to access via conventional cross-coupling techniques. N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-mediated conversion of alcohols into the corresponding alkyl radicals followed by copper-catalyzed C-N coupling renders this platform successful for a broad range of structurally unbiased alcohols and 18 classes of N-nucleophiles.

Abstract
Atomically precise metal nanoclusters (NCs) have become an important class of catalysts due to their catalytic activity, high surface area, and tailored active sites. However, the design and development of bond-forming reaction catalysts based on copper NCs are still in their early stages. Herein, we report the synthesis of an atomically precise copper nanocluster with a planar core and unique shell, [Cu45(TBBT)29(TPP)4(C4H11N)2H14]2+ (Cu45) (TBBT: 4-tert-butylbenzenethiol; TPP: triphenylphosphine), in high yield via a one-pot reduction method. The resulting structurally well-defined Cu45 is a highly efficient catalyst for the hydroboration reaction of alkynes and alkenes. Mechanistic studies show that a single-electron oxidation of the in situ-formed ate complex enables the hydroboration via the formation of boryl-centered radicals under mild conditions. This work demonstrates the promise of tailored copper nanoclusters as catalysts for C-B heteroatom bond-forming reactions. The catalysts are compatible with a wide range of alkynes and alkenes and functional groups for producing hydroborated products.

Abstract
In this paper, we report on a one-step catalyst-transfer macrocyclization (CTM) reaction, based on the Pd-catalyzed Buchwald-Hartwig cross-coupling reaction, selectively affording only cyclic structures. This route offers a versatile and efficient approach to synthesize aza[1n]paracyclophanes (APCs) featuring diverse functionalities and lumens. The method operates at mild reaction temperatures (40 °C) and short reaction times (∼2 h), delivering excellent isolated yields (>75% macrocycles) and up to 30% of a 6-membered cyclophane, all under nonhigh-dilution concentrations (35-350 mM). Structural insights into APCs reveal variations in product distribution based on different endocyclic substituents, with steric properties of exocyclic substituents having minimal influence on the macrocyclization. Aryl-type endocyclic substituents predominantly yield 6-membered macrocycles, while polycyclic aromatic units such as fluorene and carbazole favor 4-membered species. Experimental and computational studies support a proposed mechanism of ring-walking catalyst transfer that promotes the macrocycle formation. It has been found that the macrocyclization is driven by the formation of cyclic conformers during the oligomerization step favoring an intramolecular C-N bond formation that, depending on the cycle size, hinges on either preorganization effect or kinetic increase of the reductive elimination step or a combination of the two. The CTM process exhibits a "living" behavior, facilitating sequential synthesis of other macrocycles by introducing relevant monomers, thus providing a practical synthetic platform for chemical libraries. Notably, CTM operates both under diluted and concentrated regimes, offering scalability potential, unlike typical macrocyclization reactions usually operating in the 0.1-1 mM range.

[PMID: 38837734 DOI: 10.1002/anie.202408974] [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: 05/12/2024] [Revised: 05/29/2024] [Accepted: 05/30/2024] [Indexed: 06/07/2024]
Abstract
Palladium-catalyzed cross-couplings of aryl chlorides usually call for bulky, electron-rich ligands such as phosphines or heterocyclic carbenes. We have now found that similarly powerful cross-coupling catalysts are obtained by the reaction of palladium salts with alkynyllithium reagents. The species initially formed in this process was characterized as a dilithium tetraalkinyl palladate complex. It catalyzes the coupling of aryl chlorides with the lithium salts of various terminal alkynes to give alkynyl arenes. The isolated Li-alkynyl-Pd complex also efficiently promotes the reaction of aryl, and allyl chlorides with (hetero)aryl-, alkyl-, and allyllithium compounds as well as lithium amides. None of these reactions proceeded in the presence of palladium salts alone. The preparative utility of this approach was demonstrated by the synthesis of 49 molecules, including pharmaceutically relevant compounds.

Abstract
N-aryl-substituted pyrrolidines are important moieties widely found in bioactive substances and drugs. Herein, we present a practical reductive amination of diketones with anilines for the synthesis of N-aryl-substituted pyrrolidines in good to excellent yields. In this process, the N-aryl-substituted pyrrolidines were furnished via successive reductive amination of diketones via iridium-catalyzed transfer hydrogenation. The scale-up performance, water as a solvent, simple operation, as well as derivation of drug molecules showcased the potential application in organic synthesis.

Abstract
Transition-metal-catalyzed aromatic olefination through direct C-H activation represents an atom and step-economic route for versatile pharmaceutical syntheses, and in many cases, different stoichiometric oxidants are frequently employed for achieving a reasonable catalytic efficiency of the transition metal ions. Herein, we report a Lewis acid promoted Pd(II)-catalyzed acetanilide olefination reaction with atmospheric dioxygen as the oxidant source. The linkage of the Lewis acid to the Pd(II) species through a diacetate bridge significantly improved its catalytic efficiency, and independent kinetic studies on the olefination step revealed that adding the Lewis acid significantly accelerated the olefination rate as well as the C-H activation step. A strong basicity of the internal base in the Pd(II) salt also benefited the olefination reaction plausibly through base-assisted β-hydride elimination.

Abstract
Nickel-catalyzed cross-couplings of (hetero)aryl electrophiles with a diversity of nucleophiles (nitrogen, oxygen, carbon, and others) have evolved into competitive alternatives to well-established palladium- and copper-based protocols for the synthesis of (hetero)aryl products, including (hetero)anilines and (hetero)aryl ethers. A survey of the literature reveals that the use of cage phosphine (CgP) 'DalPhos' (DALhousie PHOSphine) bisphosphine-type ligands operating under thermal conditions currently offers the most broad substrate scope in nickel-catalyzed cross-couplings of this type, especially involving (hetero)aryl chlorides and phenol-derived electrophiles. The development and application of these DalPhos ligands is described in a ligand-specific manner that is intended to serve as a guide for the synthetic chemistry end-user.

Abstract
Markovnikov hydrobromination and hydrochlorination of alkynes were achieved using TMSX (X = Br, Cl) instead of corrosive HX (X = Br, Cl) as the bromination and chlorination reagents. Mn(OAc)2·4H2O was used as the hydrobromination catalyst for electron-neutral/rich alkynes. For the hydrobromination of electron-deficient alkynes and hydrochlorination of alkynes, Zn(OAc)2·2H2O was employed as the catalyst. Mechanistic studies suggested that the in situ formed TMS-substituted alkyne might be a reactive intermediate and the proton of the terminal alkyne should be a hydrogen source for the hydrohalogenation reaction.

Abstract
A chemodivergent synthesis of polycyclic aromatic diarylamines and carbazoles was established by employing thermally or photochemically controlled processes using KOtBu/1,10-phenanthroline. The synthetic processes involved the dephosphinylation of 9-amino-10-(phosphinyl)phenanthrenes, which were obtained through a regioselective palladium-catalyzed direct [4 + 2] benzannulation of phosphinyl ynamines with 2-iodobiphenyls. When the dephosphinylation was conducted under heating conditions (∼100 °C), it proceeded to yield 9-aminophenanthrene. However, when the reaction was performed under the illumination of purple light (LEDs, λmax = ca. 390 nm), KOtBu/1,10-phenanthroline promoted single-electron-transfer-triggered dephosphinylation followed by cyclization, producing the corresponding π-expanded carbazoles. We successfully synthesized a highly π-expanded dicarbazole through a dual dephosphinylative cyclization. Additionally, we present the optical properties of a series of amino compounds produced through the dephosphinylative processes.

Abstract
Atomically precise copper nanoclusters (NCs) are an emerging class of nanomaterials for catalysis. Their versatile core-shell architecture opens the possibility of tailoring their catalytically active sites. Here, we introduce a core-shell copper nanocluster (CuNC), [Cu29(StBu)13Cl5(PPh3)4H10]tBuSO3 (StBu: tert-butylthiol; PPh3: triphenylphosphine), Cu29NC, with multiple accessible active sites on its shell. We show that this nanocluster is a versatile catalyst for C-heteroatom bond formation (C-O, C-N, and C-S) with several advantages over previous Cu systems. When supported, the cluster can also be reused as a heterogeneous catalyst without losing its efficiency, making it a hybrid homogeneous and heterogeneous catalyst. We elucidated the atomic-level mechanism of the catalysis using density functional theory (DFT) calculations based on the single crystal structure. We found that the cooperative action of multiple neighboring active sites is essential for the catalyst's efficiency. The calculations also revealed that oxidative addition is the rate-limiting step that is facilitated by the neighboring active sites of the Cu29NC, which highlights a unique advantage of nanoclusters over traditional copper catalysts. Our results demonstrate the potential of nanoclusters for enabling the rational atomically precise design and investigation of multi-site catalysts.
