Abstract
The Kolbe reaction forms carbon-carbon bonds through electrochemical decarboxylative coupling. Despite more than a century of study, the reaction has seen limited applications owing to extremely poor chemoselectivity and reliance on precious metal electrodes. In this work, we present a simple solution to this long-standing challenge: Switching the potential waveform from classical direct current to rapid alternating polarity renders various functional groups compatible and enables the reaction on sustainable carbon-based electrodes (amorphous carbon). This breakthrough enabled access to valuable molecules that range from useful unnatural amino acids to promising polymer building blocks from readily available carboxylic acids, including biomass-derived acids. Preliminary mechanistic studies implicate the role of waveform in modulating the local pH around the electrodes and the crucial role of acetone as an unconventional reaction solvent for Kolbe reaction.

Abstract
A novel tetrabutylammonium iodide (TBAI)-promoted three-component reaction of carboxylic acid with alkene and alcohol has been developed, which represents facile and straightforward access to polysubstituted γ-lactone skeletons in moderate-to-good yields. This methodology is distinguished by the use of a commercial catalyst and readily available starting materials, wide substrate scope, and operational simplicity. Mechanistic studies suggested that this transformation went through a radical process.

Abstract
Transition-metal-catalyzed oxidative functionalization of alkenes has emerged as a powerful and valuable tool in modern organic synthesis. Recently, many methods have been established for the assembly of C-C and C-heteroatom bonds, which provides tremendous possibility for application in biology, medicine, and materials science. However, the use of stoichiometric amounts of strong oxidants leads to poor selectivity, low atom economy, and a series of undesired waste products. By contrast, green oxidants, such as O2 , H2 O2 , or tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP), have bright prospects due to their attributes of mild, low cost, and great sustainability in transition-metal-catalyzed oxidation reactions. Based on the great and unique potential for the development of aerobic reactions, this review mainly highlights homogenous palladium-catalyzed green oxidations of alkenes that have been reported in recent years. These methods provide new strategies for the transformation and functionalization of alkenes; some of them have also been successfully applied to the synthesis of the core structures of drugs and natural products. Additionally, through in-depth studies of the reaction mechanisms in this field, it is believed that palladium-catalyzed green oxidation reactions of alkenes with O2 , H2 O2 , or TBHP will create added value for organic synthetic chemistry.

Abstract
This study aims to develop an intermolecular lactonization reaction of alkenes with carbonyls mediated by visible light and molecular iodine. The one-step reaction involved the carboesterification of alkenes to produce the corresponding lactones in moderate to good yield. It was also revealed that it is possible to control the diastereoselectivity of the reaction by altering the base used and the reaction conditions. When water was added as a solvent, the reaction resulted in the formation of lactones with trans-selectivity. A mechanistic investigation was undertaken and it was found that the reaction requires the generation of an iodine radical from molecular iodine, driven by visible light irradiation, and proceeds via the formation of an iodine radical alkene adduct. The proposed reaction is an example of a rare-metal free intermolecular addition cyclization reaction, which is an environment-friendly chemical process that only uses molecular iodine. In addition, since diastereoselectivity was observed without the use of any specific reagents, the developed methodology is an example of a novel stereoselective transformation using only cost-effective reagents.
