Abstract
A palladium-catalyzed cascade carbonylation reaction of 2-bromo-N-(2-iodophenyl)benzamides with benzylidenecyclopropanes for the synthesis of fused isoindolinone derivatives has been developed. A broad range of 6/5/6/6 tetracyclic isoindolinone products were efficiently prepared in moderate to good yields with diverse substitution. Two carbonyl groups were incorporated into the substrates in a single step with the formation of four carbon-carbon bonds and two carbon-heteroatom bonds.

Abstract
In this study, a really simple and efficient catalytic protocol for the construction of quinazolines from alcohol and diamine has been developed based on CuCoAl layered double hydroxide (CuCoAl-LDH). The developed CuCoAl-LDH catalyst could accelerate the cascade reactions without any additives and tolerate various alcohols with satisfactory yields. Cooperation between the Cu+ and Cu2+ species in CuCoAl-LDH was observed in the cascade reaction, and they are believed to be responsible for the oxidation of alcohol and dehydrogenation of the intermediate, respectively. The promoting effect of the substrate diamine was observed in the oxidation of alcohol, which simplifies the reaction system by eliminating the requirement for a base additive. The catalytic system exhibited highly practical potential for the synthesis of quinazolines, as demonstrated through recyclability investigations and scale-up experiments. A possible catalytic mechanism has been proposed based on a series of control experiments and EPR analysis.

Abstract
To gain mechanistic insights into the acetate-assisted cyclometallations of arylimines promoted by [RuCl2(p-cymene)]2 in polar protic media, DFT geometry optimizations (with M06 and ωB97X-D3 functionals and the cc-pVDZ-PP[Ru] basis set) followed by DLPNO-CCSD(T)/CBS energy evaluations were performed using benzaldimine as a model substrate and methanol as the solvent (with CPCM or SMD models). The calculation results show that coordination of the imine to an acetate ruthenium precursor is followed by anion (chloride or acetate) dissociation as the rate-determining step of the process. H-Bonding of two explicit MeOH to the anion reduces the calculated activation energy to ca. 23 kcal mol-1, in good agreement with the experimental half-life at room temperature. Subsequent AMLA/CMD C-H activation of the intermediate cationic complexes is a faster, reversible process. Alternative reaction pathways involving neutral diacetate ruthenium complexes offer AMLA/CMD transition state structures of lower energy but are precluded due to higher energy barriers for the initial ligand exchange processes at ruthenium. Solvent assistance accelerates the final chloride/acetate exchange processes on the cycloruthenate intermediates, particularly when compression in the condensed phase is taken into consideration. The performance of six DFT functionals (with the aug-pVTZ-PP[Ru] basis set) was assessed using the DLPNO-CCSD(T)/CBS reference energies. Neutral diacetate ruthenium complexes were incorrectly predicted as being kinetically relevant when using hybrid DFT methods (PBE0-D3(BJ), M06-2X or ωB97M-V). Good agreement between the calculated barrier heights and our benchmark energy results was obtained by using double-hybrid DFT methods. PWPB95 with D3(BJ) or D4 dispersion energy corrections was found to be the most accurate (ΔG≠ MUE of ca. 1 kcal mol-1). This study may aid our understanding of and help with further experimental investigations of synthetically useful carboxylate-assisted C-H bond functionalizations involving (N,C)-cyclometallated (p-cymene)Ru(II) intermediate complexes in sustainable polar protic solvents.

Abstract
Direct C-H amidation of α-ketoesters was accomplished using various organic azides as the amino source through the combination of transient directing group strategy and iridium catalysis. Excellent functional group tolerance and wide substrate scope were explored under simple and mild conditions. Importantly, it was found that the steric hindrance of the ester moiety played a pivotal role for the reaction efficacy. In addition, the reaction could be enlarged to gram scale, and several useful heterocycles were readily constructed via one-step late-stage derivatization.

Abstract
Transient directing groups (TDGs) can be a powerful strategy for directly functionalizing C-H bonds of aldehydes. We report a palladium-catalyzed o-C-H alkoxycarbonylation of benzaldehydes using a catalytic amount of aromatic amine to form a transient imine that plays the role of a monodentate TDG. The reaction conditions were applied to a broad range of aldehydes, and the corresponding 2-formyl benzoates were used as direct precursors for the synthesis of phthalides and 1-isoindolinones.

Abstract
The first palladium-catalyzed direct o-C-H iodination of benzaldehydes was successfully developed with the assistance of commercially available 2,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)aniline as the optimal monodentate transient directing group (MonoTDG). Moderate to excellent yields and good selectivity were achieved for a broad substrate scope under mild conditions. More importantly, the synthetic application was demonstrated by a concise two-step total synthesis of the natural product hernandial, which was accomplished by merging this new MonoTDG-assisted C-H iodination and subsequent copper-catalyzed cross-coupling.

Abstract
A unified method for direct C4-H halogenation of indoles has been accomplished with the assistance of anthranilic acids as suitable transient directing groups. Exclusive site selectivity (one out of five potential reactive sites) as well as good functional group tolerance was obtained to install three kinds of halogen atoms (Cl, Br and I, respectively) by using inexpensive N-halosuccinimides (NXS) as halogen sources under mild conditions. Taking advantage of the rich functional groups in the product, a diversity of nitrogen-containing heterocycles were facily constructed via one-step late-stage derivations.

Abstract
The direct functionalization of C-H bonds is among the most fundamental chemical transformations in organic synthesis. However, when the innate reactivity of the substrate cannot be utilized for the functionalization of a given single C-H bond, this selective C-H bond functionalization mostly relies on the use of directing groups that allow bringing the catalyst in close proximity to the C-H bond to be activated and these directing groups need to be installed before and cleaved after the transformation, which involves two additional undesired synthetic operations. These additional steps dramatically reduce the overall impact and the attractiveness of C-H bond functionalization techniques since classical approaches based on substrate pre-functionalization are sometimes still more straightforward and appealing. During the past decade, a different approach involving both the in situ installation and removal of the directing group, which can then often be used in a catalytic manner, has emerged: the transient directing group strategy. In addition to its innovative character, this strategy has brought C-H bond functionalization to an unprecedented level of usefulness and has enabled the development of remarkably efficient processes for the direct and selective introduction of functional groups onto both aromatic and aliphatic substrates. The processes unlocked by the development of these transient directing groups will be comprehensively overviewed in this review article.

Abstract
The direct Pd-catalyzed β-C-H arylation of aldehydes and ketones was developed by using 2-amino-N,N'-diisopropylsuccinamide as a novel transient directing group (TDG). The TDG showed good versatility in functionalizing unactivated β-C-H bonds of aldehydes and ketones. It was effective not only for aliphatic aldehydes and ketones but also for aromatic aldehydes and ketones. Besides, it was applicable to o-methylbenzaldehydes.
