Abstract
The difunctionalization of vinylpyridines based on the cyclization strategy remains rare and underdeveloped, in contrast to the well-developed hydrogen functionalization. Current exploration on [4 + 2] cyclization of vinylpyridines mainly relies on extremely high temperatures and the LUMO activation of vinylpyridines using boron trifluoride as a strong Lewis acid. Herein, we established a phosphoric acid-catalyzed [4 + 2] cyclization reaction of 3-vinyl-1H-indoles and 2-vinylpyridines by means of the LUMO/HOMO bifunctional activation model. This protocol features mild reaction conditions, high functional group tolerance, broad substrate compatibility, and high diastereoselectivity, enabling the efficient construction of various functionalized pyridine-substituted tetrahydrocarbazoles with prominent potential in drug discovery.

Abstract
Cu-catalyzed asymmetric construction of a chiral quaternary center bearing CH3 and CF3 groups was achieved with high to excellent enantioselectivity using our originally developed ligands. The asymmetric conjugate addition of Me3Al to β-CF3-substituted enones and unsaturated ketoesters proceeded efficiently. The use of unsaturated ketoesters gives optically active furanones in high yields with high enantioselectivities. The perfluoroalkyl-substituted enone does not seem to be favorable in the present reaction.

Abstract
A novel strategy for incorporating a trifluoroacetyl functionality into a range of structurally varied unsaturated bonds was developed by using PhI(OCOMe)2 as an oxidant with a masked trifluoroacyl reagent as a trifluoroacetyl radical precursor. The oxidative decarboxylation of the masked trifluoroacyl precursor followed by a tandem radical process provides versatile access to 5-exo-trig cyclization of N-arylacrylamides, direct C(sp2)-H trifluoroacetylation of quinolines, isoquinoline, 2H-indazole, and quinoxalin-2(1H)-ones, and C(sp)-H trifluoroacetylation of alkynes. This protocol is characterized by mild reaction conditions, operational simplicity, and broad functional group compatibility.

Abstract
The trifluoromethylacyl group (-COCF3) is an important motif and widely studied in catalysis, medicinal chemistry, and materials science. Herein, a novel palladium-catalyzed selenofluoroalkylacylation of terminal alkynes with commercially available fluoroalkyl anhydride and diorganyl diselenides to afford β-seleno and aryl/alkyl disubstituted enones under mild conditions is disclosed. In addition, selenodifluoroacetylations and selenoperfluoroacetylations are also suitable for this reaction. Mechanistic studies reveal that this reaction proceeds via an oxidative radical-polar crossover process.

Abstract
Hydroxytrifluoroethyl and trifluoroacetyl groups are of utmost importance in biologically active compounds, but methods to tether these motifs to organic architectures have been limited. Typically, the preparation of these compounds relied on the use of strong bases or multistep routes. The renaissance of radical chemistry in photocatalytic, transition metal mediated, and hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) processes have allowed the installation of these medicinally relevant fluorinated motifs. This review provides an overview of the methods available for the direct synthesis of hydroxytrifluoroethyl- and trifluoroacetyl-derived compounds governed by single-electron transfer processes.

Abstract
Aliphatic trifluoromethyl ketones are a type of unique fluorine-containing subunit which play a significant role in altering the physical and biological properties of molecules. Catalytic methods to provide direct access to aliphatic trifluoromethyl ketones are highly desirable yet remain underdeveloped, partially owing to the high reactivity and instability of trifluoroacetyl radical. Herein, we report a photocatalytic synthesis of trifluoromethyl ketones from alkyl bromides with trifluoroacetic anhydride. The reaction features dual visible-light and halogen-atom-transfer catalysis, followed by an enabling radical-radical cross-coupling of an alkyl radical with a stabilized trifluoromethyl radical. The reaction provides straightforward access to aliphatic trifluoromethyl ketones from readily available and cost-effective alkyl halides and trifluoroacetic anhydride (TFAA).
