Abstract
The present study reports an unprecedented protocol for the phosphonylation of unactivated C(sp3)-H bonds. By utilizing 1 mol % 4DPAIPN (1,2,3,5-tetrakis(diphenylamino)-4,6-dicyanobenzene) as the catalyst, satisfactory yields of γ-phosphonylated amides are obtained through a visible-light-induced reaction between N-((4-cyanobenzoyl)oxy)alkanamides and 9-fluorenyl o-phenylene phosphite at room temperature. This protocol demonstrates broad substrate scope and wide functional group compatibility.

Abstract
Alcohols are abundant and attractive feedstock molecules for organic synthesis. Many methods for their functionalization require them to first be converted into a more activated derivative, while recent years have seen a vast increase in the number of complexity-building transformations that directly harness unprotected alcohols. This Review discusses how transition metal catalysis can be used toward this goal. These transformations are broadly classified into three categories. Deoxygenative functionalizations, representing derivatization of the C-O bond, enable the alcohol to act as a leaving group toward the formation of new C-C bonds. Etherifications, characterized by derivatization of the O-H bond, represent classical reactivity that has been modernized to include mild reaction conditions, diverse reaction partners, and high selectivities. Lastly, chain functionalization reactions are described, wherein the alcohol group acts as a mediator in formal C-H functionalization reactions of the alkyl backbone. Each of these three classes of transformation will be discussed in context of intermolecular arylation, alkylation, and related reactions, illustrating how catalysis can enable alcohols to be directly harnessed for organic synthesis.

Abstract
A novel and efficient protocol for the synthesis of diarylallyl-functionalized phosphonates, phosphinates, and phosphine oxides through the zinc-catalyzed dehydroxylative phosphorylation of allylic alcohols with P(III)-nucleophiles via a Michaelis-Arbuzov-type rearrangement is reported. A broad range of allylic alcohols and P(III)-nucleophiles (P(OR)3, ArP(OR)2, and Ar2P(OR)) are well tolerated in this reaction, and the expected dehydroxylative phosphorylation products could be synthesized with good to excellent yields under the optimal reaction conditions. The reaction can be easily scaled up at a gram-synthesis level. Furthermore, through the step-by-step control experiments, kinetic study experiments, and 31P NMR tracking experiments, we acquired insights into the reaction and proposed the possible mechanism for this transformation.

Abstract
Carbonyl is highly accessible and acts as an essential functional group in chemical synthesis. However, the direct catalytic deoxygenative functionalization of carbonyl compounds via a putative metal carbene intermediate is a formidable challenge due to the requirement of a high activation energy for the cleavage of strong C═O double bonds. Here, we report a class of bench stable and readily available Cp*Mo(II)-complexes as efficient deoxygenation catalysts that could catalyze the direct intermolecular deoxygenative coupling of carbonyl compounds with alkynes. Enabled by this powerful Cp*Mo(II)-catalyst, various valuable heteroarenes (10 different classes) were obtained in generally good yields and remarkable chemo- and regioselectivities. Mechanistic studies suggested that this reaction might proceed via a sequence of C═O double bonds cleavage, carbene-alkyne metathesis, cyclization, and aromatization processes. This strategy not only provided a general catalytic platform for the rapid preparation of heteroarenes but also opened a new window for the applications of Cp*Mo(II)-catalysts in organic synthesis.

Abstract
Molybdenum-catalyzed allylic substitution reactions are known to provide direct and practical ways to construct new carbon-carbon bonds and privileged compounds. However, due to the lack of reports on carbon-heteroatom bond formation as a common deficiency, these reactions still face a great challenge. Described herein is a robust and convenient molybdenum-catalyzed regioselective allylic amination of tertiary allylic carbonates with an amine as the heteroatom nucleophile. Both aromatic and aliphatic amines react with various tertiary allylic alcohol derivatives to deliver the desired α,α-disubstituted allylic amines in high yield with complete regioselectivity. In addition, ethanol as the green solvent, a recyclable catalyst system through simple centrifugation techniques, and simple handling procedures make the current approach green, economic, and sustainable.

Abstract
The substituted benzene derivatives are essential to organic synthesis, medicinal chemistry, and material science. However, the 1,3-di- and 1,3,5-trisubstituted benzenes are far less prevalent in small-molecule drugs than other substitution patterns, likely due to the lack of robust, efficient, and convenient synthetic methods. Here, we report a Mo-catalyzed intermolecular deoxygenative benzene-forming reaction of readily available ynones and allylic amines. A wide range of unsymmetric and unfunctionalized 1,3-di- and 1,3,5-trisubstituted benzenes were obtained in up to 88% yield by using a commercially available molybdenum catalyst. The synthetic potential of the method was further illustrated by synthetic transformations, a scale-up synthesis, and derivatization of bioactive molecules. Preliminary mechanistic studies suggested that this benzene-forming process might proceed through a Mo-catalyzed aza-Michael addition/[1,5]-hydride shift/cyclization/aromatization cascade. This strategy not only provided a facile, robust, and modular approach to various meta-substituted benzene derivatives but also demonstrated the potential of molybdenum catalysis in the challenging intermolecular deoxygenative cross-coupling reactions.

Abstract
The catalytic asymmetric cyclopropanation reaction of alkenes with diazo compounds is a direct and powerful method to construct chiral cyclopropanes that are essential to drug discovery. However, diazo compounds are potentially explosive and often require hazardous reagents for their preparation. Here, we report on the use of 1,2-dicarbonyl compounds as safe and readily available surrogates for diazo compounds in the direct catalytic asymmetric deoxygenative cyclopropanation reaction. Enabled by a class of simple and readily accessible chiral salen-Mo catalysts, the reaction proceeded with generally good enantioselectivities and yields toward a wide range of substrates (80 examples). Preliminary mechanistic studies suggested that the proposed μ-oxo bridged dinuclear Mo(III)-species was the catalytically active species. This strategy not only provides a promising route for the synthesis of chiral cyclopropanes but also opens a new window for the potential applications of chiral salen-Mo complexes in asymmetric catalysis.

Abstract
In the presence of triphenylphosphine as a mild reductant, the use of catalytic amounts of Mo(CO)6 and an ortho-quinone ligand enables the intermolecular reductive coupling of aromatic aldehydes and the intramolecular coupling of aromatic ketones to produce functionalized alkenes. Diaryl- and diheteroaryl alkenes are synthesized with high (E)-selectivity and a tolerance toward bromide, iodide, and steric hindrance. Intramolecular coupling of dicarbonyl compounds under similar conditions affords mono- and disubstituted phenanthrenes.
