Abstract
Rhodium(III)-catalyzed enantioselective C-H activation has emerged as a powerful tool for assembling enabling chiral molecules. However, this approach is significantly hampered by the cumbersome synthetic routes for preparing chiral rhodium catalysts. In sharp contrast, we herein report on an electrochemical domino catalysis system that exploits an achiral Cp*-rhodium catalyst along with an easily accessible chiral Brønsted base for an enantioselective C-H activation/annulation reaction of alkenes by benzoic acids. Our strategy offers an environmentally benign and most user-friendly approach for assembling synthetically useful chiral phthalides in good enantioselectivity, employing electricity as the sustainable oxidant.

Abstract
A dual rhodium/isothiourea catalytic system was developed for the enantiodivergent transformation of terminal alkynes. Under synergistic rhodium/isothiourea dual catalysis, terminal alkynes can be creatively utilized as precursors for C1-ammonium enolate species, which subsequently participate in [4 + 2] and [2 + 2] annulation reactions with α,β-unsaturated ketimines or ketones, respectively. A wide range of chiral lactams and lactones were obtained in excellent yields and stereoselectivities (up to >20:1 dr, 98% ee).

Abstract
The mechanism of the Ni-Al bimetallic-catalyzed C-H cyclization to construct tricyclic imidazoles is investigated using density functional theory calculations. The calculation result shows that the reaction mechanism involves sequential steps of substrate coordination, ligand-to-ligand hydrogen transfer (LLHT), and C-C reductive elimination to produce the final product tricyclic imidazole. The LLHT step is calculated to be the rate-determining step. The oxidative addition of the benzimidazole C-H bond to the Ni center and the insertion of the alkene into the Ni-H bond occur concertedly in the LLHT step. The effects of N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands and AlMe3 on the reactivity and regioselectivity were also analyzed. These calculation results shed light on some ambiguous suggestions from experiments.

Understanding divergent substrate stereoselectivity in the isothiourea-catalysed conjugate addition of cyclic α-substituted β-ketoesters to α,β-unsaturated aryl esters. Chem Sci 2023; 14:14146-14156.

Abstract
The development of enantioselective synthetic methods capable of generating vicinal stereogenic centres, where one is tetrasubstituted (such as either an all-carbon quaternary centre or where one or more substituents are heteroatoms), is a recognised synthetic challenge. Herein, the enantioselective conjugate addition of a range of carbo- and heterocyclic α-substituted β-ketoesters to α,β-unsaturated aryl esters using the isothiourea HyperBTM as a Lewis base catalyst is demonstrated. Notably, divergent diastereoselectivity is observed through the use of either cyclopentanone-derived or indanone-derived substituted β-ketoesters with both generating the desired stereodefined products with high selectivity (>95 : 5 dr, up to 99 : 1 er). The scope and limitations of these processes are demonstrated, alongside application on gram scale. The origin of the divergent substrate selectivity has been probed through the use of DFT-analysis, with preferential orientation driven by dual stabilising CH⋯O interactions. The importance of solvation with strongly polar transition-states is highlighted and the SMD solvation model is demonstrated to capture solvation effects reliably.

Abstract
This review summarizes the advancements in rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric C-H functionalization reactions during the last two decades. Parallel to the rapidly developed palladium catalysis, rhodium catalysis has attracted extensive attention because of its unique reactivity and selectivity in asymmetric C-H functionalization reactions. In recent years, Rh-catalyzed asymmetric C-H functionalization reactions have been significantly developed in many respects, including catalyst design, reaction development, mechanistic investigation, and application in the synthesis of complex functional molecules. This review presents an explicit outline of catalysts and ligands, mechanism, the scope of coupling reagents, and applications.

Abstract
Significant progress has been made in asymmetric synthesis through the use of transition metal catalysts combined with Lewis bases. However, the use of a dual catalytic system involving 4-aminopyridine and transition metal has received little attention. Here we show a metal/Lewis base relay catalytic system featuring silver acetate and a modified chiral pyrrolidinopyridine (PPY). It was successfully applied in the cycloisomerization/(2 + 3) cycloaddition reaction of enynamides. Bispirocyclopentene pyrazolone products could be efficiently synthesized in a stereoselective and economical manner (up to >19:1 dr, 99.5:0.5 er). Transformations of the product could access stereodivergent diastereoisomers and densely functionalized polycyclic derivatives. Mechanistic studies illustrated the relay catalytic model and the origin of the uncommon chemoselectivity. In subsequent bioassays, the products containing a privileged drug-like scaffold exhibited isoform-selective phosphodiesterase 1 (PDE1) inhibitory activity in vitro. The optimal lead compound displayed a good therapeutic effect for ameliorating pulmonary fibrosis via inhibiting PDE1 in vivo.

Abstract
By using readily available enaminones, aryl hydrazine hydrochlorides, and alkynes as starting materials, the chemo-selective three-component synthesis of atropisomeric N-(o-alkenylaryl) pyrazoles has been efficiently accessed with rhodium catalysis. Unlike Satoh-Miura reaction leading to the alkyne-based C-H benzannulation by using prior prepared N-phenyl pyrazoles and alkynes as substrates, this three-component protocol displays unprecedented selectivity of C-H alkenylation by blocking the second round metal alkenylation with the key protonation step in the presence of acids.

Abstract
A rhodium(III)-catalyzed protocol for the synthesis of pyrrolo[1,2-a]quinolines through intramolecular annulation of o-alkynyl amino aromatic ketones and subsequent aromatization is reported. This transformation builds the pyrrole and quinoline moieties of the pyrrolo[1,2-a]quinoline in one pot and achieves a flexible introduction of different substituent groups at 4- and 5-positions on products that were difficult to prepare by other means. The reaction proceeds smoothly on a gram scale, and the products are amenable to downstream synthetic manipulations.

Abstract
Despite the notable advances achieved in the Murai-type hydroarylations, highly enantioselective catalytic addition of native (hetero)arenes to internal alkenes remains a prominent challenge. Herein, we report a directing group repositioning strategy, which enables the iridium-catalyzed enantioselective addition of heteroarenes including furan, benzofuran, and thiophene to internal enamides. The C-H bond at the C2 position of the heteroarene is site-selectively cleaved and added regioselectively to the β-position of an enamide, affording a valuable β-heteroaryl amide with high enantioselectivity. Mechanistic studies indicate that the rate and the enantioselectivity are determined by separate elementary steps.

Abstract
Chiral γ-lactam-containing skeletons are important motifs in bioactive natural products, pharmaceuticals, and bioactive molecules. Herein, we report a general and modular platform to access chiral γ-lactam compounds via an ITU/Ir cooperatively catalyzed [3 + 2] asymmetric annulation reaction of vinyl aziridines with pentafluorophenyl esters. Through the Lewis base and transition metal cooperative catalytic regime, a broad range of optically active γ-lactams were generated in good yields (up to 92%) with high asymmetric induction (up to 98% ee). Furthermore, the utility of this synthetic protocol was also demonstrated by the expedient preparation of diverse enantioenriched architectures.

The rollover annulation implies a twofold C-H activation of aryl and heteroaryl Csp2-H bonds (C-H/C-H) of 1-benzylpyrazoles (five-atom partners) and alkynes to give the [5 + 2] annulated compounds.

Abstract
Catalytic branch-selective hydrofunctionalization of feedstock α-olefins to form enantioenriched chiral compounds is a particularly attractive yet challenging transformation in asymmetric catalysis. Herein we report an iridium-catalyzed asymmetric hydroalkenylation of α-olefins through directed C-H cleavage of enamides. This atom-economical addition process is highly branch-selective and enantioselective, delivering trisubstituted alkenes with an allylic stereocenter. DFT calculations reveal the origin of regio- and enantioselectivity.
