Abstract
α-Quaternary amino acids have found application in many biologically relevant compounds and pharmaceuticals. Although there are many methods for the synthesis of α-quaternary amino acids, most of them are mainly realized with the aid of transition metals and complex ligands. We present herein a 2,7-Br-4CzIPN catalyzed regioselective alkylation of azlactones with redox-active esters via radical-radical couplings. Strikingly, this approach is devoid of any metal or additive and shows broad scope and superior sensitive functional group compatibility.

Abstract
In this paper, a novel cascade reaction of caesium carbonate-promoted Michael addition and lactonization for the one-pot synthesis of 3-alkyl-3-N-substituted aminobenzofuran-2(3H)-one derivatives has been established based on the screening of the alkaline reagents and optimization of reaction conditions, in which the N-substituted (ortho-hydroxy)aryl glycine esters were used as the Michael donors to react with different α, β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds. In the case of using the asymmetric starting material, the epimers could be successfully separated by conventional chromatography. In addition, plausible mechanisms were suggested and the absolute configuration of the epimer was analysed. All the chemical structures of unreported benzofuran-2(3H)-one derivatives were characterized by 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), 13C NMR, IR and high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS).

Abstract
The cross-dehydrogenative coupling (CDC) reaction is the most direct and efficient method for constructing α-tertiary amino acids (ATAAs), which avoids the pre-activation of C(sp3)-H substrates. However, the use of transition metals and harsh reaction conditions are still significant challenges for these reactions that urgently require solutions. This paper presents a mild, metal-free CDC reaction for the construction of ATAAs, which is compatible with various benzyl C-H substrates, functionalized C-H substrates, and alkyl substrates, with good regioselectivity. Notably, our method exhibits excellent functional group tolerance and late-stage applicability. According to mechanistic studies, the one-step synthesized and bench-stable N-alkoxyphtalimide generates a highly electrophilic trifluoro ethoxy radical that serves as a key intermediate in the reaction process and acts as a hydrogen atom transfer reagent. Therefore, our metal-free and additive-free method offers a promising strategy for the synthesis of ATAAs under mild conditions.

Abstract
A novel copper-catalyzed cross-dehydrogenative-coupling (CDC) process of arylglycine derivatives with N-heteroarenes for the straightforward synthesis of α-aryl-α-heteroaryl α-amino acid scaffolds has been successfully developed. This protocol exhibits a broad substrate scope with good functional group compatibility by utilizing air as the sole oxidant. The use of the reaction is also displayed through the late-stage functionalization of arylglycines bearing natural compounds or drug motifs.

Abstract
The synthesis of heterobiaryl compounds holds significant value in organic chemistry due to their extensive range of applications. Herein, we report a highly efficient strategy for conducting C4-selective (hetero) arylation of pyridines using N-aminopyridinium salts. The reaction proceeds readily at room temperature in the presence of a base, thus eliminating the requirement for catalysts or oxidants. This method allows for the installation of various electron-rich (hetero) aryl groups on pyridines, resulting in the streamlined synthesis of highly valuable C4-(hetero) aryl pyridine derivatives, which are otherwise challenging to acquire via conventional methods. This simple and straightforward method will facilitate access to a range of heterobiaryl compounds thereby promoting their application in various scientific disciplines.

Abstract
A novel procedure for the synthesis of α,α-diaryl-α-amino acid derivatives has been developed. Silver oxide catalyzes the conjugate addition of α-aryl isocyanoacetates to o-quinone diimide, affording the corresponding α,α-diarylisocyano esters in excellent yields and regioselectivities in short reaction times. Acid hydrolysis of the isocyano group provides the corresponding amino acids bearing a diarylated tetrasubstituted carbon atom. The reaction is also amenable to the synthesis of α-alkyl-α-arylisocyano esters, while the reaction with 3-hydroxy o-quinone diimides provides 4H-benzo[e][1,3]oxazines via a conjugate addition/cyclization process.

preceding sequential electrophilic arylation by Bi(V) and SN2 displacement by an amine. The methodology is compatible with a
wide range of anilines and primary amines - including derivatives
of drugs and proteinogenic amino acids - Bi(V) arylating agents, and

Abstract
Persistent radicals, which are generated from 2-oxindole or benzofuranone dimers, are useful tools for designing the radical-based cross-coupling reaction to provide molecules containing a quaternary carbon. The persistent radical is accessible from both the dimer and monomer; however, the reactivity difference between these substrates for the oxidative cross-coupling reaction is not fully understood, most likely because of the mechanistic complexity. Here, we present details of an aerobic cross-dehydrogenative coupling (CDC) reaction using various monomers and catechols. UV-Vis analysis and mechanistic control experiments showed that the monomer is less reactive than the dimer under aerobic conditions. Our Pd(II)-BINAP-μ-hydroxo complex significantly improved the reactivity of the monomers for the aerobic CDC reaction with catechols, yielding results comparable to those of the corresponding dimer. The procedure, which enables the generation of the persistent radical in situ, is particularly useful when employing the monomer that is not readily converted to the corresponding dimer.

Abstract
An operationally simple and convenient resolution method via Cu(II) complexes was reported, efficiently providing valuable enantiopure N,C-unprotected α-amino acids. This protocol features synthetically attractive yields and a stereochemical outcome, using a recyclable Schiff base ligand and inexpensive easily accessible metal copper salts. These novel Cu(II) complexes can be obtained in an enantiopure state by means of column chromatography or recrystallization. Furthermore, all the Cu(II) complexes were evaluated for their antibacterial activities. Among them, complexes (S,2S)-3a, (S,2S)-3g, and (S,2S)-3o showed significant antibacterial activities against Staphylococcus aureus Mu50. Further biological evaluation indicated that they were effective against most of Gram-positive bacteria. It is the first study on the biological activities of transition metal complexes with this type of proline-derived Schiff base ligand.

Abstract
A synthetic method for the synthesis of a highly congested α,β-dehydroamino acid through the β-C-H bond activation of an amino acid Schiff base is described. Abundant hydrocarbon feedstock could be used as an alkylating reagent to afford an α,β-dehydroamino acid bearing a quaternary carbon at the γ-position with an exclusively (Z)-geometry. Notably, a tetrasubstituted olefin could be constructed from saturated starting materials. The transformation of the synthesized α,β-dehydroamino acid into unnatural α-amino acid derivatives was also demonstrated.

Abstract
Catalytic chemoselective reactions of innately less reactive functionalities over more reactive functionalities are described. A cooperative catalyst comprising a soft Lewis acid/hard Brønsted base enabled chemoselective activation of a hydroxyl group over an amino group, allowing for nucleophilic addition to electron-deficient olefins. The reaction could be applicable for a variety of amino alcohols, including pharmaceuticals, without requiring a tedious protection-deprotection process. Chemoselective enolization and subsequent α-functionalization of carboxylic acid derivatives were also achieved by a redox active catalyst through the radical process, providing unnatural α-amino/hydroxy acid derivatives bearing a complex carbon framework and a diverse set of functionalities. The present chemoselective catalysis described herein offers new opportunities to expand the chemical space for innovative drug discovery research.

Abstract
We describe herein a Cu(OTf)2 catalyzed oxidative arylation of a tertiary carbon-containing substrate including aryl malononitriles, 3-aryl benzofuran-2-ones, and 3-aryl oxindoles. In some cases, the nitrile groups of the aryl malononitriles undergo further reactions leading to lactones or imines. These reaction conditions are applicable for a range of arenes, including phenols, anilines, anisoles, and heteroarenes. Mechanistic studies support the formation of a cationic intermediate via a two-electron oxidation.
