Abstract
The C(sp3)-H difluoroalkylation for the introduction of carbonylated CF2 groups into tetrahydroisoquinolines (THIQs) and isochromans has been achieved by using electrochemical oxidation and organozinc alkylation. This one-pot process proceeded smoothly under transition-metal catalyst- and chemical oxidant-free conditions, and the desired products were obtained in good to high yields with a broad scope, except for N-Boc-THIQ. In addition, the gram-scale experiment successfully demonstrated the promising scalability. This is the first example of an electrochemical method for C(sp3)-H difluoroalkylation of amines and ethers.

Abstract
Herein, we present a novel C(sp3)-C(sp3) bond-forming protocol via the reductive coupling of abundant tertiary amides with organozinc reagents prepared in situ from their corresponding alkyl halides. Using a multistep fully automated flow protocol, this reaction could be used for both library synthesis and target molecule synthesis on the gram-scale starting from bench-stable reagents. Additionally, excellent chemoselectivity and functional group tolerance make it ideal for late-stage diversification of druglike molecules.

Abstract
A robust and practical difluoroalkylation synthon, α,α-difluoroenol species, which generated in situ from trifluoromethyl diazo compounds and water in the presence of dirhodium complex, is disclosed. As compared to the presynthesized difluoroenoxysilane and in situ formed difluoroenolate under basic conditions, this difluoroenol intermediate displayed versatile reactivity, resulting in dramatically improved enantioselectivity under mild conditions. As demonstrated in catalytic asymmetric aldol reaction and Mannich reactions with ketones or imines in the presence of chiral organocatalysts, quinine-derived urea, and chiral phosphoric acid (CPA), respectively, this relay catalysis strategy provides an effective platform for applying asymmetric fluorination chemistry. Moreover, this method features a novel 1,2-difunctionalization process via installation of a carbonyl motif and an alkyl group on two vicinal carbons, which is a complementary protocol to the metal carbene gem-difunctionalization reaction.

Abstract
It is significant to develop novel difluoromethylation methods because of the important roles of difluoromethyl groups in the medicinal chemistry and material industries. Here, we developed a novel difluoromethylation-carboxylation and difluoromethylation-deuteration method triggered by a difluoromethyl radical generated by electroreduction of stable and easily available difluoromethyltriphenylphosphonium bromide. Various molecules containing difluoromethyl and carboxyl or deuterium groups can be synthesized through this method. The establishment of this method will provide an alternative to radical difluoromethylation reactions.

Abstract
Chemoselective α-acylation of tertiary amides proceeded with highly electrophilic acid anhydrides and weak bases under mild conditions. β-Ketoamides containing trifluoroacetyl or perfluoroacyl groups were selectively obtained even in the presence of other functional groups such as ketone, ester, etc. Density functional theory calculations suggest that 1-acyloxyenamine is the key intermediate for the chemoselective α-acylation.

Abstract
Reactions capable of transposing the oxidation levels of adjacent carbon atoms enable rapid and fundamental alteration of a molecule's reactivity. Herein, we report the 1,2-transposition of the carbon atom oxidation level in cyclic and acyclic tertiary amides, resulting in the one-pot synthesis of 1,2- and 1,3-oxygenated tertiary amines. This oxidation level transfer was facilitated by the careful orchestration of an iridium-catalyzed reduction with the functionalization of transiently formed enamine intermediates. A novel 1,2-carbonyl transposition is described, and the breadth of this redox transposition strategy has been further explored by the development of aminoalcohol and enaminone syntheses. The diverse β-functionalized amine products were shown to be multifaceted and valuable synthetic intermediates, accessing challenging biologically relevant motifs.

Abstract
In contrast to ketones and carboxylic esters, amides are classically seen as comparatively unreactive members of the carbonyl family, owing to their unique structural and electronic features. However, recent decades have seen the emergence of research programmes focused on the selective activation of amides under mild conditions. In the past four years, this area has continued to rapidly develop, with new advances coming in at a fast pace. Several novel activation strategies have been demonstrated as effective tools for selective amide activation, enabling transformations that are at once synthetically useful and mechanistically intriguing. This Minireview comprises recent advances in the field, highlighting new trends and breakthroughs in what could be called a new age of amide activation.

Abstract
The catalytic reductive condensation reactions of tertiary amides with active methylene compounds leading to multifunctionalized non-N-containing products is described. The reactions proceed through sequential iridium-catalyzed hydrosilylation of the amides followed by acid-mediated condensation with the active methylene compounds. This scalable method is broad in scope and shows remarkable chemoselectivity for the amide group in the presence of several sensitive or even more reactive functionalities such as ester, cyano, nitro, silyl dienol ether, and ketone.
