Abstract
Density functional theory (DFT) calculations have been conducted to elucidate the detailed mechanisms of yttrium-catalyzed C-H polyaddition of 1,4-dimethoxybenzene (DMB) to 1,4-divinylbenzene (DVB). It was computationally determined that DMB not only serves as a substrate but also performs a crucial role as a ligand, stabilizing the catalytically active species and promoting alkene insertion. Side pathways involving Cβ-H activation and C═C continuous insertion were excluded due to steric and electronic factors, respectively, explaining why the reaction occurred efficiently and selectively to give perfectly alternating DMB-DVB polymers. Interestingly, the theoretical prediction of the reactivity of N,N-dimethyl-1,4-phenylenediamine and 2,2'-biethyl-4,4'-bipyridine reveals significant differences in the coordination effects of these substrates, leading to distinct mechanisms, primarily influenced by their steric effects. These findings shed new light on the previously overlooked role of substrate ligand effects in rare-earth-catalyzed step-growth copolymerization reactions.

Abstract
The [3 + 2] or [4 + 2] annulation of α,β-unsaturated aldimines with alkenes via β'- or γ-allylic C(sp3)-H activation is, in principle, an atom-efficient route for the synthesis of five- or six-membered-ring cycloalkylamines, which are important structural motifs in numerous natural products, bioactive molecules, and pharmaceuticals. However, such a transformation has remained undeveloped to date probably due to the lack of suitable catalysts. We report herein for the first time the regio- and diastereoselective [3 + 2] and [4 + 2] annulations of α,β-unsaturated imines with alkenes via allylic C(sp3)-H activation by half-sandwich rare-earth catalysts having different metal ion sizes. The reaction of α-methyl-substituted α,β-unsaturated aldimines with alkenes by a C5Me4SiMe3-ligated scandium catalyst took place in a trans-diastereoselective [3 + 2] annulation fashion via C(sp3)-H activation at the α-methyl group (β'-position), exclusively affording alkylidene-functionalized cyclopentylamines with excellent trans-diastereoselectivity. In contrast, the reaction of β-methyl-substituted α,β-unsaturated aldimines with alkenes by a C5Me5-ligated cerium catalyst proceeded in a cis-diastereoselective [4 + 2] annulation fashion via γ-allylic C(sp3)-H activation, selectively yielding multisubstituted 2-cyclohexenylamines with excellent cis-diastereoselectivity. The mechanistic details of these transformations have been elucidated by deuterium-labeling experiments, kinetic isotope effect studies, and the isolation and transformations of key reaction intermediates. This work offers an efficient and selective protocol for the synthesis of a new family of cycloalkylamine derivatives, featuring 100% atom efficiency, high regio- and diastereoselectivity, broad substrate scope, and an unprecedented reaction mechanism.

Abstract
The search for efficient and selective methods for the divergent synthesis of multi-substituted aminotetralins is of much interest and importance. We report herein for the first time the diastereoselective [4+2] annulation of 2-methyl aromatic aldimines with alkenes via benzylic C(sp3 )-H activation by half-sandwich rare-earth catalysts, which constitutes an efficient route for the divergent synthesis of both trans and cis diastereoisomers of multi-substituted 1-aminotetralin derivatives from readily accessible aldimines and alkenes. The use of a scandium catalyst bearing a sterically demanding cyclopentadienyl ligand such as C5 Me4 SiMe3 or C5 Me5 exclusively afforded the trans-selective annulation products in the reaction of aldimines with styrenes and aliphatic alkenes. In contrast, the analogous yttrium catalyst, whose metal ion size is larger than that of scandium, yielded the cis-selective annulation products. This protocol features 100 % atom-efficiency, excellent diastereoselectivity, broad substrate scope, and good functional group compatibility. The reaction mechanisms have been elucidated by kinetic isotope effect (KIE) experiments and the isolation and transformations of some key reaction intermediates.

Abstract
Multisubstituted chiral 1-aminoindanes are important components in many pharmaceuticals and bioactive molecules. Therefore, the development of efficient and selective methods for the synthesis of chiral 1-aminoindanes is of great interest and importance. In principle, the asymmetric [3 + 2] annulation of aldimines with alkenes through C-H activation is the most atom-efficient and straightforward route for the construction of chiral 1-aminoindanes, but such a transformation has remained undeveloped to date probably due to the lack of suitable catalysts. Herein, we report for the first time the enantioselective [3 + 2] annulation of a wide range of aromatic aldimines and alkenes via ortho-C(sp2)-H activation by chiral half-sandwich scandium catalysts, which provides a straightforward route for the synthesis of multisubstituted chiral 1-aminoindanes. This protocol features 100% atom-efficiency, broad functional group compatibility, and high regio-, diastereo-, and enantioselectivity (up to >19:1 dr and 99:1 er). Remarkably, by fine-tuning the sterics of the chiral ligand around the catalyst metal center, the diastereodivergent asymmetric [3 + 2] annulation of aldimines and styrenes has been achieved with a high level of diastereo- and enantioselectivity, offering an efficient method for the synthesis of both the trans and cis diastereomers of a novel class of chiral 1-aminoindane derivatives containing two contiguous stereocenters from the same set of starting materials. Moreover, the asymmetric [3 + 2] annulation of aldimines with aliphatic α-olefins, norbornene, and 1,3-dienes has also been achieved.

Abstract
Lanthanide-ligand complexes are key components of technological applications, and their properties depend on their structures in the solution phase, which are challenging to resolve experimentally or computationally. The coordination structure of the Eu3+ ion in different coordination environments in acetonitrile is examined using ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulations and extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectroscopy. AIMD simulations are conducted for the solvated Eu3+ ion in acetonitrile, both with or without a terpyridyl ligand, and in the presence of either triflate or nitrate counterions. EXAFS spectra are calculated directly from AIMD simulations and then compared to experimentally measured EXAFS spectra. In acetonitrile solution, both nitrate and triflate anions are shown to coordinate directly to the Eu3+ ion forming either ten- or eight-coordinate solvent complexes where the counterions are binding as bidentate or monodentate structures, respectively. Coordination of a terpyridyl ligand to the Eu3+ ion limits the available binding sites for the solvent and anions. In certain cases, the terpyridyl ligand excludes any solvent binding and limits the number of coordinated anions. The solution structure of the Eu-terpyridyl complex with nitrate counterions is shown to have a similar arrangement of Eu3+ coordinating molecules as the crystal structure. This study illustrates how a combination of AIMD and EXAFS can be used to determine how ligands, solvent, and counterions coordinate with the lanthanide ions in solution.

Abstract
Although considerable progress has been achieved in C-H functionalization by cationic rare-earth alkyl complexes, the potential facilitating roles of heteroatom-containing substrates during the catalytic cycle remain highly underestimated. Herein, theoretical studies on the model reaction of C(sp2)-H addition of pyridines to allenes by scandium catalyst were carefully carried out to reveal the detailed mechanism. A coordinating pyridine substrate as a ligand can effectively stabilize some key structures. An obvious facilitating role delivered by the coordinating pyridine was found for allene insertion, while the pyridine-free mechanism prefers to occur for C(sp2)-H activation processes. Importantly, the elusive role of heteroatom-containing substrates was systematically revealed for the C-H activation event by designing a metal/ligand combination of catalysts and substrates. We found that the pyridyl C(sp2)-H activation would be switched to the pyridine-coordinated mechanism in the cases of the designed Y and La catalysts. To date, this is the first time to realize the potential substrate-facilitating role in cationic rare-earth-catalyzed C-H activation processes. Moreover, theoretical predictions show that similar switchable mechanisms also work for other types of C-H bonds and other heteroatom-involved substrates by fine-adjusting the steric surroundings of catalysts. The two C-H activation mechanisms are mainly the result of the delicate balance between electronic and steric factors. In general, the catalytic system with less steric hindrance prefers to undergo the substrate-coordinated mechanism. In contrast, the substrate-free mechanism is favorable due to steric repulsion. These results are helpful for us to better understand the variant mechanisms in rare-earth-catalyzed C-H functionalization at the atomistic level and may help guide the rational design of new catalytic reactions. In addition, the origins of the regio- and stereoselectivity were discussed through geometric parameters and distortion/interaction analysis.

Abstract
Transition metal catalysis has contributed immensely to C-C bond formation reactions over the last few decades, and alkylation is no exception. The superiority of such methodologies over traditional alkylation is evident from minimal reaction steps, shorter reaction times, and atom economy while also allowing control over regio- and stereo-selectivity. In particular, hydrocarbonation of alkenes has grabbed increased attention due its fundamental ability to effectively and selectively synthesise a wide range of industrially and pharmaceutically relevant moieties. This review attempts to provide a scientific viewpoint and a systematic analysis of the recent developments in transition-metal-catalyzed alkylation of various C-H bonds using simple and activated olefins. The key features and mechanistic studies involved in these transformations are described briefly.

Abstract
The catalytic C–H alkylation with alkenes is of much interest and importance, as it offers a 100% atom efficient route for C–C bond construction. In the past decade, great progress in rare-earth catalysed C–H alkylation of various heteroatom-containing substrates with alkenes has been made. However, whether or how a heteroatom-containing substrate would influence the coordination or insertion of an alkene at the catalyst metal center remained elusive. In this work, the mechanism of Sc-catalysed C–H alkylation of sulfides with alkenes and dienes has been carefully examined by DFT calculations, which revealed that the alkene insertion could proceed via a sulfide-facilitated mechanism. It has been found that a similar mechanism may also work for the C–H alkylation of other heteroatom-containing substrates such as pyridine and anisole. Moreover, the substrate-facilitated alkene insertion mechanism and a substrate-free one could be switched by fine-tuning the sterics of catalysts and substrates. This work provides new insights into the role of heteroatom-containing substrates in alkene-insertion-involved reactions, and may help guide designing new catalysis systems. The alkene insertion via the heteroatom-containing substrate facilitated mechanism were computationally revealed in rare-earth-catalyzed C–H alkylation of sulfides and other heteroatom-containing substrates such as pyridines and anisoles.![]()

Abstract
Here we report for the first time the regio- and diastereoselective [3+2] annulation of a wide range of aliphatic aldimines with alkenes via the activation of an unactivated β-C(sp3 )-H bond by half-sandwich scandium catalysts. This protocol offers a straightforward and atom-efficient route for the synthesis of a new family of multi-substituted aminocyclopentane derivatives from easily accessible aliphatic aldimines and alkenes. The annulation of aldimines with styrenes exclusively afforded the 5-aryl-trans-substituted 1-aminocyclopentane derivatives with excellent diastereoselectivity through the 2,1-insertion of a styrene unit. The annulation of aldimines with aliphatic alkenes selectively gave the 4-alkyl-trans-substituted 1-aminocyclopentane products in a 1,2-insertion fashion. A catalytic amount of an appropriate amine such as adamantylamine (AdNH2 ) or dibenzylamine (Bn2 NH) showed significant effects on the catalyst activity and stereoselectivity.

Abstract
The catalytic enantioselective construction of three-dimensional molecular architectures from planar aromatics such as quinolines is of great interest and importance from the viewpoint of both organic synthesis and drug discovery, but there still exist many challenges. Here, we report the scandium-catalyzed asymmetric dearomative spiro-annulation of quinolines with alkynes. This protocol offers an efficient and selective route for the synthesis of spiro-dihydroquinoline derivatives containing a quaternary carbon stereocenter with an unprotected N-H group from readily accessible quinolines and diverse alkynes, featuring high yields, high enantioselectivity, 100% atom-efficiency, and broad substrate scope. Experimental and density functional theory studies revealed that the reaction proceeded through the C-H activation of the 2-aryl substituent in a quinoline substrate by a scandium alkyl (or amido) species followed by alkyne insertion into the Sc-aryl bond and the subsequent dearomative 1,2-addition of the resulting scandium alkenyl species to the C═N unit in the quinoline moiety. This work opens a new avenue for the dearomatization of quinolines, leading to efficient and selective construction of spiro molecular architectures that were previously difficult to access by other means.

Abstract
Lignocellulosic biorefineries have received considerable attention for the purpose of producing high-value chemicals and materials. Levulinic acid (LA) is an important biomass-derived platform chemical that is produced from sugar-based biomass. Unfortunately, the catalysts reported thus far have shortcomings, such as expensive starting materials, complicated synthesis or purification operations, and a low LA yield under harsh reaction conditions. Herein, we develop a novel dual-functional catalyst, HScCl4, by combining Brønsted acid (HCl) and Lewis acid (ScCl3) sites. The as-prepared HScCl4 catalyst shows high efficiency and high selectivity for converting 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) to LA in a biphasic system consisting of methyl isobutyl ketone (MIBK) and water. The density functional theory (DFT) results show that the synergistic catalytic effect, originating from the Brønsted and Lewis acidic sites of HScCl4, significantly decreases the energy barriers of reactants and intermediates, thus facilitating the conversion of HMF to LA. Moreover, the efficient separation of LA in the water-MIBK biphasic system by extracting LA to the MIBK phase minimizes the side reactions of LA and thus the formation of humins while significantly improving the LA yield. The conversion of HMF and the selectivity for LA are 100 and 95.6% at 120 °C for 35 min, respectively. The free energy (ΔG) and activation energy (E a) of the reaction are -30 kcal mol-1 and 13.7 kJ mol-1, respectively. The developed process provides a green, sustainable, and efficient pathway to produce LA from biomass-derived HMF under mild conditions.

Abstract
This density functional theory (DFT) study reveals a detailed plausible mechanism for the Sc-catalyzed C-H cycloaddition of imidazoles to 1,1-disubstituted alkenes to form all-carbon quaternary stereocenters. The Sc complex binds the imidazole substrate to enable deprotonative C2-H bond activation by the Sc-bound α-carbon to afford the active species. This complex undergoes intramolecular cyclization (C═C into Sc-imidazolyl insertion) with exo-selectivity, generating a β-all-carbon-substituted quaternary center in the polycyclic imidazole derivative. The Sc-bound α-carbon deprotonates the imidazole C2-H bond to deliver the product and regenerate the active catalyst, which is the rate-determining step. Calculations illuminate the electronic effect of the ancillary Cp ligand on the catalyst activity and reveal the steric bias caused by using a chiral catalyst that induce the enantioselectivity. The insights can have implications for advancing rare-earth metal-catalyzed C-H functionalization of imidazoles.

Abstract
The enantioselective C-H alkenylation of ferrocenes with alkynes is, in principle, a straightforward and atom-efficient route for the construction of planar-chiral ferrocene scaffolds bearing alkene functionality but has remained scarcely explored to date. Here we report for the first time the highly enantioselective C-H alkenylation of quinoline- and pyridine-substituted ferrocenes with alkynes by a half-sandwich scandium catalyst. This protocol features broad substrate scope, high enantioselectivity, and 100% atom efficiency, selectively affording a new family of planar-chiral ferrocenes bearing N/alkene functionalities. The mechanistic details have been clarified by DFT analyses. The use of a quinoline/alkene-functionalized ferrocene product as a chiral ligand for asymmetric catalysis is also demonstrated.

Abstract
The regiodivergent catalysis of C-H alkylation with alkenes is of great interest and importance but has remained hardly explored to date. We report herein the first regiodivergent C-H alkylation of quinolines with alkenes by half-sandwich rare-earth catalysts. The regiodivergence was achieved by fine-tuning the metal/ligand combination or steric and electronic properties of the catalysts. The use of the C5Me5-ligated scandium catalyst Sc-3 for the reaction of quinolines with styrenes and that of the C5Me4H-ligated yttrium catalyst Y-2 for the reaction with aliphatic olefins exclusively afforded the corresponding C8-H alkylation products, thus constituting the first example of direct C8-H alkylation of neutral quinolines. In contrast, the Sc-3-catalyzed reaction of 2-arylquinolines with aliphatic olefins and the Y-2-catalyzed reaction with styrenes selectively gave the 2-aryl o-C-H alkylation products. On the basis of the catalyst/substrate-controlled regiodivergence, the sequential regiospecific dialkylation of quinolines with two different alkenes has also been achieved. DFT studies revealed that the C-H activation of 2-phenylquinoline at both the C8 position and an ortho position of the 2-phenyl substituent was possible, and these two types of initially formed C-H activation products were interconvertible through the coordination and C-H activation of another molecule of quinoline. The regioselectivity for the C-H alkylation reactions was governed not only by the ease of the initial formation of the C-H activation products but also by the energy barriers for their interconversions, as well as by the energy barriers or steric and electronic influences in the subsequent alkene insertion processes. This work has not only constituted an efficient protocol for the selective synthesis of diversified quinoline derivatives but also offered unprecedented insights into the C-H activation and transformation of quinolines and may help in the design of more efficient, selective, or complementary catalysts.

Abstract
Stereodivergent catalysis is of great importance, as it can allow efficient access to all possible stereoisomers of a given product with multiple stereocenters from the same set of starting materials. We report herein the first diastereodivergent [3 + 2] annulation of aromatic aldimines with alkenes via C-H activation by half-sandwich rare-earth catalysts. This protocol provides an efficient and general route for the selective synthesis of both trans and cis diastereoisomers of multisubstituted 1-aminoindanes from the same set of aldimines and alkenes, featuring 100% atom efficiency, excellent diastereoselectivity, broad substrate scope, and good functional group compatibility. The diastereodivergence is achieved by fine-tuning the sterics or ligand/metal combination of the half-sandwich rare-earth metal complexes.

Abstract
The exo-selective C-H cycloaddition of imidazoles to 1,1-disubstituted alkenes has been achieved for the first time by using half-sandwich scandium catalysts. A wide range of imidazole compounds bearing various 1,1-disubstituted aliphatic alkenes, styrenes, dienes, and enynes have been selectively converted in high yields to the corresponding bicyclic imidazole derivatives bearing β-all-carbon-substituted quaternary stereocenters. By using a chiral half-sandwich scandium catalyst, the asymmetric exo-selective cyclization has also been achieved with a high level of enantioselectivity.

Abstract
A (μ-aryloxo)rhenium complex was isolated and confirmed as a key precatalyst for rhenium-catalyzed ortho-alkenylation (C-alkenylation) of unprotected phenols with alkynes. The reaction exclusively provided ortho-alkenylphenols; the formation of para or multiply alkenylated phenols and hydrophenoxylation (O-alkenylation) products was not observed. Several mechanistic experiments excluded a classical Friedel-Crafts-type mechanism, leading to the proposed phenolic hydroxyl group assisted electrophilic alkenylation as the most plausible reaction mechanism. For this purpose, the use of rhenium, a metal between the early and late transition metals in the periodic table, was key for the activation of both the soft carbon-carbon triple bond of the alkyne and the hard oxygen atom of the phenol, at the same time. ortho-Selective alkenylation with allenes also provided the corresponding adducts with a substitution pattern different from that obtained by the addition reaction with alkynes.

Abstract
A series of fluorenyl-based constrained-geometry-configuration (CGC) allyl-type rare earth metal monoalkyl complexes bearing the divalent anionic η3:η1-tert-butyl(dimethylfluorenylsilyl)amido (η3:η1-FluSiMe2NtBu) ligand (η3:η1-FluSiMe2NtBu)Ln(CH2SiMe3)(THF)2 (1-3) have been synthesized via the alkane elimination reaction between the FluHSiMe2NHtBu ligand and rare earth metal tri(trimethylsilylmethyl) complexes Ln(CH2SiMe3)3(THF)n. Their structures are characterized by means of NMR spectrum, elemental analyses, and X-ray diffraction. These complexes 1-3 are isostructural and isomorphous, and each of them adopts a distorted-trigonal-bipyramidal configuration containing one η3:η1-FluSiMe2NtBu ligand, one CH2SiMe3 ligand, and two THF molecules. Unlike traditional CGC allyl-type rare earth metal complexes showing no or low activity and regio-/stereoselectivity in styrene or MMA polymerization, these complexes 1-3 exhibit high catalytic activities and/or high regio-/stereoselectivities in the cis-1,4-polymerization of isoprene and myrcene or in the syndiotactic polymerization of styrene under the aid of different activators (borate or borane) and AlR3. The in situ 1H NMR spectra suggest that the exchanges of chelating ligands such as alkyl groups and divalent anionic η3:η1-FluSiMe2NtBu ligands between rare earth metal centers and Al centers result in the formation of a heterobimetallic tetraalkylaluminate complex R2Al(μ-R)2Ln(R)(μ-R)2AlR2, which is activated by activators to form a divalent cationic species [Ln(μ-R)2AlR2]2+ as a catalytically active species in the coordination-insertion polymerization of olefins.

Abstract
Self-healing materials are of fundamental interest and practical importance. Herein we report the synthesis of a new class of self-healing materials, formed by the copolymerization of ethylene and anisyl-substituted propylenes using a sterically demanding half-sandwich scandium catalyst. The copolymerization proceeded in a controlled fashion, affording unique multi-block copolymers composed of relatively long alternating ethylene- alt-anisylpropylene sequences and short ethylene-ethylene units. By controlling the molecular weight and varying the anisyl substituents, a series of copolymers that show a wide range of glass-transition temperatures ( Tg) and mechanical properties have been obtained. The copolymers with Tg below room temperature showed high elastic modulus, high toughness, and remarkable self-healability, being able to autonomously self-heal upon mechanical damage not only in a dry environment but also in water and aqueous acid and alkaline solutions, while those with Tg around or above room temperature exhibited excellent shape-memory property. The unique mechanical properties may be ascribed to the phase separation of the crystalline ethylene-ethylene nanodomains from the ethylene- alt-anisylpropylene matrix.
