Abstract
Iminoiodinanes comprise a class of hypervalent iodine reagents that is often encountered in nitrogen-group transfer (NGT) catalysis. In general, transition metal catalysts are required to effect efficient NGT to unactivated olefins because iminoiodinanes are insufficiently electrophilic to engage in direct aziridination chemistry. Here, we demonstrate that 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP) activates N-arylsulfonamide-derived iminoiodinanes for the metal-free aziridination of unactivated olefins. 1H NMR and cyclic voltammetry (CV) studies indicate that hydrogen-bonding between HFIP and the iminoiodinane generates an oxidant capable of direct NGT to unactivated olefins. Stereochemical scrambling during aziridination of 1,2-disubstituted olefins is observed and interpreted as evidence that aziridination proceeds via a carbocation intermediate that subsequently cyclizes. These results demonstrate a simple method for activating iminoiodinane reagents, provide analysis of the extent of activation achieved by H-bonding, and indicate the potential for chemical non-innocence of fluorinated alcohol solvents in NGT catalysis.

Abstract
Asymmetric C-H trifluoromethylalkylation represents a novel and straightforward synthetic method for the construction of chiral CF3-containing compounds. However, the reported examples remain limited, given the challenges of reactivity and enantioselective control. Herein, we report a SCpRh(III)-catalyzed asymmetric aryl and alkenyl C-H trifluoromethylalkylation reaction with β-trifluoromethyl-α,β-unsaturated ketones. The chiral CF3-bearing adducts were obtained in moderate to good yields with high enantioselectivity (up to 81% yield and 96% ee). The reaction features mild conditions and broad substrate scope. The chiral CF3-bearing products could undergo diverse functional group transformations.

Abstract
Herein, we report a photochemical organocatalytic method for the asymmetric introduction of perfluoroalkyl fragments (including the valuable trifluoromethyl moiety) at the remote γ-position of α-branched enals. The chemistry exploits the ability of extended enamines (dienamines) to form photoactive electron donor-acceptor (EDA) complexes with perfluoroalkyl iodides, which under blue light irradiation generate radicals through an electron transfer mechanism. The use of a chiral organocatalyst, derived from cis-4-hydroxy-l-proline, secures a consistently high stereocontrol while inferring complete site selectivity for the more distal γ position of the dienamines.

Abstract
Despite paramount applications of chiral trifluoromethylated compounds in medicinal chemistry and materials science, limited strategies have been developed for catalytic asymmetric synthesis of such valuable fluorinated structures. Here, we report a nickel catalyzed enantioselective dicarbofunctionalization of inexpensive industrial chemical 3,3,3-trifluoropropene (TFP) with readily available tertiary alkyl and aryl iodides. The reaction overcomes the β-F elimination side reaction of TFP, and proceeds efficiently under mild reaction conditions. The protocol possesses advantages, such as synthetic convenience, high enantioselectivity, and excellent functional group tolerance, providing rapid and straightforward access to chiral trifluoromethylated compounds of medicinal interest. Strategies for the catalytic asymmetric synthesis of trifluoromethylated compounds remain scarce. Here, the authors report the nickel-catalyzed enantioselective dicarbofunctionalization of 3,3,3-trifluoropropene.

Abstract
The first enantioselective radical trifluoromethylation of benzylic C-H bonds has been established by a cooperative photoredox and copper catalysis system, providing straightforward access to structurally diverse benzylic trifluoromethylation products in good yields with excellent enantioselectivities under mild conditions. Our method features a broad substrate scope and excellent functional group compatibility. Merging the cooperative photoredox catalysis with copper catalysis is essential for the reaction, where the photoredox catalysis is used for the generation of benzylic radicals from alkyl arenes through a hydrogen atom transfer process and the copper catalysis is used for the enantioselective trifluoromethylation of the benzylic radicals.

Abstract
The nickel-catalyzed reductive cross-coupling reaction of acyl chloride with racemic secondary α-trifluoromethyl bromide has been developed. By this chemistry, a series of structurally interesting chiral α-CF3 carbonyl compounds could be accessed with great enantioselectivity and good functional group tolerance. The study of late-stage transformation indicated that this chemistry could be used as the robust method to prepare products that contain a bioactive motif. Furthermore, the importance of the α-trifluoromethyl group to this reaction has been illustrated by control experiments.

Abstract
Fluorinated motifs are frequently encountered in drugs and agrochemicals. Incorporating fluorine-containing motifs in drug candidates for lead optimization in pharmaceutical research and development has emerged as a powerful tool. The construction of molecules that feature a trifluoromethyl (CF3-) group on a stereogenic carbon has accumulated broad research efforts. Unlike its well-explored, biologically active methyl counterpart, asymmetric construction of β-trifluoromethylated alcohols bearing adjacent stereocenters still remains elusive. Through retrosynthetic analysis, we posited that followed by sequential reduction of carbonyl, the initial construction of chiral α-trifluoromethylated ketones could render the desired product in a facile, one-pot fashion. Herein, we developed the first example of nickel-catalyzed asymmtric reductive cross-coupling trifluoroalkylation of acyl chlorides for enantioselective synthesis of diverse α-trifluoromethylated ketones. The one-pot reduction of these α-trifluoromethylated ketones furnished corresponding alcohols bearing β-CF3-substituted stereogenic carbons with excellent diastereoselectivity and complete enantioselective retention. High yields/enantioselectivity, mild conditions, and good functional group compatibility are shown in the system. Utilities of the method are also illustrated by applying asymmetric, late-stage trifluoroalkylation of biologically active complex molecules, revealing tremendous potential for development of CF3-containing chiral drugs.

Abstract
Herein, a protocol that combines heterogeneous catalysis and solar photocatalysis for the regioselective α-substitution of asymmetric ketones with quinoxalinones has been reported. The result indicates that the reaction is more likely to occur on the α-carbon. This strategy provides a green and efficient way for the α-functionalization of ketones. A singlet oxygen involved mechanism is suggested for the transformation.

Abstract
The catalytic asymmetric synthesis of P-chiral phosphorus compounds is an important way to construct P-chiral ligands. Herein, we report a new strategy that adopts the pyridinyl moiety as the coordinating group in the cobalt-catalysed asymmetric nucleophilic addition/alkylation of secondary phosphine oxides. A series of tertiary phosphine oxides were generated with up to 99 % yield and 99.5 % ee, and with broad functional-group tolerance. Mechanistic studies reveal that (R)-secondary phosphine oxides preferentially interact with the cobalt catalysts to produce P-stereogenic compounds.

Abstract
Introduction of the trifluoromethyl group (CF3 ) into organic molecules in an enantioselective manner has attracted significant attention, but still remains a challenging problem. We herein report a catalytic asymmetric trifluoromethylation of cyclic ketones via a ScIII /chiral bisoxazoline-catalyzed homologation reaction by employing 2,2,2-trifluorodiazoethane (CF3 CHN2 ) as the CF3 source. This desymmetrization process is highly efficient and generates two chiral centers with excellent diastereoselectivity and enantioselectivity, affording chiral α-trifluoromethyl cyclic ketones in a straightforward manner.

Abstract
The enantioselective construction of C-CF2R (R: alkyl or fluoroalkyl) bonds has attracted the attention of synthetic chemists because of the importance of chiral fluorinated compounds in life and materials sciences. Catalytic asymmetric fluoroalkylation has mainly been realized under organocatalysis and Lewis acid catalysis, with substrates limited to carbonyl compounds. Few examples using transition-metal catalysis exist, owing to side reactions including decomposition and isomerization of fluoroalkylating reagents. Herein we report umpolung asymmetric difluoroallylation of hydrazones with 3-bromo-3,3-difluoropropene (BDFP) under palladium catalysis. Difluoroallylation products having quaternary chiral carbon centers are afforded in good yields with high α/γ- and enantioselectivities. The usefulness of the reaction products is demonstrated and an inner-sphere mechanism of the reaction is proposed. The use of chiral N-heterocyclic carbene as ligand is the key for the selectivities as well as the productivity of the reaction.

Abstract
The Ir-catalyzed enantioselective addition of an N-methyl C-H bond of 2-(methylamino)pyridine derivatives to α-trifluoromethylstyrenes proceeded via C-H activation to give chiral γ-branched amine derivatives having a trifluoromethyl-substituted stereocenter. It was found that a bulky and electron-withdrawing group at the 3-position of 2-(methylamino)pyridines was necessary for the present C-H addition reaction catalyzed by a cationic iridium/chiral bisphosphine complex.

Abstract
A dual nickel/photoredox-catalyzed enantioselective reductive cross-coupling of aryl halides with CF3-substituted racemic alkyl electrophiles has been established. The approach accommodates a broad palette of aryl iodides and alkyl bromides to access a variety of chiral CF3-containing compounds. The exceptionally mild conditions (visible light, ambient temperature, no strong base) and no need for Grignard reagents or stoichiometric metallic reductants provide this transformation huge potential in the application of the late-stage functionalization of complex molecules.

Abstract
The chiral oxazoline motif is present in many ligands that have been extensively applied in a series of important metal-catalyzed enantioselective reactions. This Review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the most significant applications of oxazoline-containing ligands reported in the literature starting from 2009 until the end of 2018. The ligands are classified not by the reaction to which their metal complexes have been applied but by the nature of the denticity, chirality, and donor atoms involved. As a result, the continued development of ligand architectural design from mono(oxazolines), to bis(oxazolines), to tris(oxazolines) and tetra(oxazolines) and variations thereof can be more easily monitored by the reader. In addition, the key transition states of selected asymmetric transformations will be given to illustrate the features that give rise to high levels of asymmetric induction. As a further aid to the reader, we summarize the majority of schemes with representative examples that highlight the variation in % yields and % ees for carefully selected substrates. This Review should be of particular interest to the experts in the field but also serve as a useful starting point to new researchers in this area. It is hoped that this Review will stimulate both the development/design of new ligands and their applications in novel metal-catalyzed asymmetric transformations.

Abstract
An efficient and enantioselective α-electrophilic difluoromethylation of β-keto esters has been achieved by phase-transfer catalysis. This procedure is applicable to different kinds of β-keto esters with a series of cinchona-derived C-2' aryl-substituted phase-transfer catalysts. The reaction gives the corresponding products in good enantioselectivities (up to 83% ee) and yields (up to 92%) with high C/O regioselectivities (up to 98 : 2). Moreover, the C/O selectivity of β-keto esters could be easily reversed and controlled. This asymmetric difluoromethylation provided a novel and efficient way for introducing chiral C-CF2H groups.

Abstract
The trifluoromethyl group represents one of the most functional and widely used fluoroalkyl groups in drug design and screening, while the drug candidates containing chiral trifluoromethyl-bearing carbons are still few due to the lack of efficient methods for the asymmetric introduction of trifluoromethyl group into organic molecules. Herein, we described a nickel-catalyzed asymmetric trifluoroalkylation of aryl iodides, for the first time, by utilizing reductive cross-coupling in enantioselective fluoroalkylation. This novel method has demonstrated high efficiency, mild conditions, and excellent functional group tolerance, especially for substrates containing diverse pharmaceutical and bioactive molecules moieties. This strategy provided an efficient and facile way for diversity-oriented synthesis of chiral trifluoromethylated alkanes.

Abstract
The reactivity of a paramagnetic T-shaped cobalt(i) complex, [(iPrboxmi)Co], stabilised by a monoanionic bis(oxazolinylmethylidene)-isoindolate (boxmi) NNN pincer ligand is described. The exposure to carbon monoxide as an additional neutral ligand resulted in the square-planar species [(iPrboxmi)Co(CO)], accompanied by a change in the electronic spin state from S = 1 to S = 0. In contrast, upon treatment with trimethylphosphine the formation of the distorted tetrahedral complex [(iPrboxmi)Co(PMe3)] was observed (S = 1). Reacting [(iPrboxmi)Co] with iodine (I2), organic peroxides (tBu2O2, (SiMe3)2O2) and diphenyldisulphide (Ph2S2) yielded the tetracoordinated complexes [(iPrboxmi)CoI], [(iPrboxmi)Co(OtBu)], [(iPrboxmi)Co(OSiMe3)] and [(iPrboxmi)Co(SPh)], respectively, demonstrating the capability of the boxmi-supported cobalt(i) complex to homolytically cleave bonds and thus its distinct one-electron reactivity. Furthermore, a square-planar cobalt(ii) alkynyl complex [(iPrboxmi)Co(CCArF)] was identified as the main product in the reaction between [(iPrboxmi)Co] and a terminal alkyne, 4-fluoro-1-ethynylbenzene. Putting such species in the context of the previously investigated hydroboration catalysis, its stoichiometric reaction with pinacolborane revealed its potential conversion into a cobalt(ii) hydride complex, thus confirming its original attribution as off-cycle species.

Abstract
Trifluoromethylated compounds are usually obtained via trifluoromethylation reaction by the use of CF3SiMe3 and NaSO2CF3, Umemoto's and Togni's reagents. Here, an external fluorine anion-free direct deoxyhydrotrifluoromethylation of α-keto esters with a difluoromethylating reagent has been achieved, in which the employment of water can promote the dissociation of the CF2 group to form a CF3 moiety, which provides the successful transformation. The current protocol demonstrates one of the most practical approaches to generate α-trifluoromethyl esters with a broad substrate scope and high functional group compatibility, in which it is applicable to late-stage modification of biologically active compounds and can be readily scaled up. Mechanistic investigation reveals that an in situ-generated gem-difluoroalkene intermediate is decomposed by water, giving rise to acid fluoride and HF.

Abstract
In this review, recent advances over the past decade in the preparation of fluorinated stereogenic quaternary centers on β-keto esters compounds are analyzed. Since the incorporation of fluorine and fluorinated groups is of special interest in pharmaceutical chemistry, a range of metal-catalyzed and organocatalyzed methods have been developed. Herein, we review the enantioselective fluorination, trifluoromethylation and trifluoromethylthiolation of 3-oxo esters. The scope, the induction of enantioselectivity and mechanistic investigations are presented.

Abstract
Two synthetic strategies for a new family of neutral NON ligands featuring a "bis(oxazolinylmethylidene)isobenzofuran" framework (boxman) are reported. A Pd-mediated cyclization reaction forming the isobenzofuran core constitutes the key reaction in the eight-step synthetic route to the nonbackbone-methylated target compound H,Rboxman. In contrast, the introduction of two additional methyl groups provides stereochemical control during backbone construction and thereby access to the methylated derivative Me,Rboxman, which was synthesized in five steps and improved yields. In addition, the synthetic sequence was transferred to the thio analogue, providing access to the NSN ligand H,Rboxmene. Subsequent complexation experiments with iron and cobalt chloride precursors afforded the four-coordinated chlorido complexes Me,RboxmanMCl2 (R = Ph, iPr; M = Fe, Co) and established the boxman family as trans-chelating, bidentate bis(oxazoline) ligands. Application of the latter in the nickel(II)- and zinc(II)-catalyzed α-fluorination of β-ketoesters and oxindoles (up to 98% yield and 94% ee) demonstrated their suitability for enantioselective catalysis.

Abstract
An enantioselective (92-99% ee) Michael/aldol cascade reaction between 4,4,4-trifluoroacetoacetates and α,β-unsaturated enones was established in the presence of cinchona alkaloid-based primary amines. Various β-CF3-cyclohexanones were constructed in high yields (81-99%) as a couple of separable diastereomers. This tandem reaction was sensitive to acidic co-catalysts, with a Michael/aldol condensation process favorably occurring to generate β-CF3-cyclohexenones (42-69% yield, 84-96% ee) in the presence of trifluoroacetic acid.

Abstract
This review describes the additions of allylmagnesium reagents to carbonyl compounds and to imines, focusing on the differences in reactivity between allylmagnesium halides and other Grignard reagents. In many cases, allylmagnesium reagents either react with low stereoselectivity when other Grignard reagents react with high selectivity, or allylmagnesium reagents react with the opposite stereoselectivity. This review collects hundreds of examples, discusses the origins of stereoselectivities or the lack of stereoselectivity, and evaluates why selectivity may not occur and when it will likely occur.

Abstract
A cross-dehydrogenative coupling strategy for enantioselective access to acyclic CF3-substituted all-carbon quaternary stereocenters has been established. By using catalytic DDQ with MnO2 as an inexpensive terminal oxidant, asymmetric cross coupling of racemic δ-CF3-substituted phenols with indoles proceeded smoothly, providing CF3-bearing all-carbon quaternary stereocenters with excellent chemo- and enantioselectivities. The generality of the strategy is further demonstrated by efficient construction of all-carbon quaternary stereocenters bearing other polyfluoroalkyl and perfluoroalkyl groups such as CF2Cl, C2F5, and C3F7.

Abstract
The first electrophilic asymmetric selenocyanation has been achieved in the presence of Ni(OTf)2 and (R,R)-DBFOX/Ph using N-selenocyanatosaccharin as the new selenocyanation reagent. Thus, a series of α-selenocyanato-β-keto esters were synthesized with high yields (up to 99%) and good ee values (up to 92% ee). The readily preparation of the reagent and high enantioselectivity make this methodology much practical for the synthesis of chiral selenocyanates.

In particular, a wide range of CF3 -substituted o-iodoacrylanilides reacted with terminal alkynes, affording the corresponding chiral oxindoles containing trifluoromethylated quaternary stereogenic centers in high yields with excellent enantioselectivities (94-98 % ee). This asymmetric Heck/Sonogashira reaction provides a general approach to access oxindole derivatives containing quaternary stereogenic centers including CF3 -substituted ones.

Abstract
The catalytic asymmetric synthesis of β-trifluoromethylated esters or nitriles is reported. The use of an in situ formed chiral Cu-H complex allowed the enantioselective reduction of β-trifluoromethylated acrylates or acrylonitriles. The reaction proceeds smoothly affording the corresponding enantioenriched products in good to excellent yields and outstanding enantioselectivities (up to 98 % ee). The mechanism of the reaction was studied, and a plausible reaction pathway was suggested accordingly. Finally, the versatility of the products was highlighted through functional group manipulations.

Abstract
Fluorine chemistry plays an increasingly important role in pharmaceutical, agricultural, and materials industries. The incorporation of fluorine-containing groups into organic molecules can improve their chemical and physical properties, which attracts continuous interest in organic synthesis. Among various reported methods, transition-metal-catalyzed fluorination/fluoroalkylation has emerged as a powerful method for the construction of these compounds. This review attempts to describe the major advances in the transition-metal-catalyzed incorporation of fluorine, trifluoromethyl, difluoromethyl, trifluoromethylthio, and trifluoromethoxy groups reported between 2011 and 2019.
