Abstract
The field of nickel catalysis has witnessed remarkable growth in recent years. However, the use of nickel catalysts in enantioselective C-H activation remains a daunting challenge because of their variable oxidation states, intricate coordination chemistry, and unpredictable reactivity patterns. Herein, we report an enantioselective C-H activation reaction catalyzed by commercially available and air-stable nickel(II) catalyst. Readily available and simple (S)-BINOL is used as a chiral ligand. This operationally simple protocol enables the synthesis of planar chiral metallocenes in high yields with excellent enantioselectivity through desymmetrization and kinetic resolution. Air-stable planar chiral nickelacycle intermediates are first synthesized via enantioselective C-H nickelation and shown to be possible intermediates of the reaction. Deuterium-labeling studies, alongside the characterization and transformation of chiral nickel(II) species, suggest that C-H cleavage is the enantio-determining step. Moreover, the large-scale synthesis and diverse synthetic transformations underscore the practicality of this protocol.

Abstract
An efficient and mild protocol for the visible light-induced radical cascade difluoromethylation/cyclization of imidazoles with unactivated alkenes using easily accessible and bench-stable difluoromethyltriphenylphosphonium bromide as the precursor of the -CF2H group has been developed to afford CF2H-substituted polycyclic imidazoles in moderate to good yields. This strategy, along with the construction of Csp3-CF2H/C-C bonds, is distinguished by mild conditions, no requirement of additives, simple operation, and wide substrate scope. In addition, the mechanistic experiments have indicated that the difluoromethyl radical pathway is essential for the methodology.

Abstract
Herein, we describe an asymmetric assembly of ortho-aromatic diamines and formyl tethered Michael acceptors forming chiral fused benzimidazoles. A cinchona-alkaloid-derived bifunctional squaramide catalyst enables the methodology through on-site dihydrobenzimidazole formation followed by an aza-Michael addition/oxidation cascade. This protocol stands out for its excellent catalytic efficiency over the background reaction and its mild conditions, making it more practical. Various Michael acceptors, including enones, ester, and thioester, were successful substrates in this study. Additionally, this methodology has demonstrated scalability and successfully showcased postsynthetic transformations.

Abstract
A microwave-assisted synthesis of dialkyl and cyclic H-phosphonates via bis(2,2,2 trifluoroethyl) phosphonate (BTFEP) is described. This method enables the synthesis of various cyclic H-phosphonates and hetero-substituted dialkyl H-phosphonates by simple alcoholysis under non-inert and additive-free conditions. Short reaction times and the requirement for only stoichiometric amounts of alcohol render this method attractive for synthetic applications.

Abstract
The catalytic asymmetric construction of axially chiral C-N atropisomers remains a formidable challenge due to their low rotational barriers and is largely reliant on toxic, cost-intensive, and precious metal catalysts. In sharp contrast, we herein describe the first nickel-catalyzed atroposelective C-H alkylation for the construction of C-N axially chiral compounds with the aid of a chiral heteroatom-substituted secondary phosphine oxide (HASPO)-ligated Ni-Al bimetallic catalyst. A wide range of alkenes, including terminal and internal alkenes, were well compatible with the reaction, providing a variety of benzimidazole derivatives in high yields and enantioselectivities (up to 97:3 e.r.). The key to success was the identification of novel HASPOs as highly effective chiral preligands. Mechanistic studies revealed the catalyst mode of action, and in-depth data science analysis elucidated the key features of the responsible chiral preligands in controlling the enantioselectivity.

Abstract
α-Amido sulphones have been used as useful starting materials in the preparation of C-chiral α-aminophosphonates and α-aminophosphonic acids. The developed methodology is based on a one-pot, base-catalysed in situ generation of an imine intermediate followed by addition of a phosphorus nucleophile. The presented protocol is simple and effective and can be applied to a variety of structurally diverse α-amido sulphones and phosphorus nucleophiles, leading to the desired pure products after simple crystallization in very good yields. Importantly, the use of H-phosphonate bearing a chiral auxiliary allows the reaction to be performed with high diastereoselectivity (a single diastereoisomer is generated and isolated) and the possibility of precise control of the configuration at the newly generated C-chiral centre.

Abstract
We report herein the design and development of Co/Al and Co/Mg bimetallic catalysts, supported by a phosphine/secondary phosphine oxide (PSPO) bifunctional ligand, for the site-selective C-H alkenylation of nitrogen-containing heteroarenes with alkynes. These catalysts enable the alkenylation of pyridine, pyridone, and imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine derivatives at the C-H site proximal to the Lewis basic nitrogen or oxygen atom, which represents a selectivity profile distinct from that of the previously developed cobalt-diphosphine/aluminum catalyst. The alkenylated products were obtained in moderate to good yields using various heterocycles and differently substituted internal alkynes. Kinetic isotope effect experiments suggest the irreversibility of the C-H activation step, the relevance of which to the rate-limiting step depends on the reaction conditions. Density functional theory calculations indicate that ligand-to-ligand hydrogen transfer is the common mechanism of C-H activation.

Abstract
Compared with the widely explored exo-selective C-H cyclization, transition metal-catalyzed endo-selective C-H cyclization of benzimidazoles with alkenes has been a formidable challenge. Previous efforts mainly rely on substrate-controlled methods, rendering the product complexity restricted. Herein we report a catalyst-controlled method to facilitate endo-cyclization, in which a bulky N-heterocyclic carbene ligand and tBuOK base-enabled Ni-Al bimetallic catalyst prove critical to the endo selectivity.

Abstract
Ligands play a critical role in promoting transition-metal-catalyzed C-H activation reactions. However, owing to high sensitivity of the reactivity of C-H activation to metal catalysts, the development of effective ligands has been a formidable challenge in the field. Rh(I)-catalyzed C-H cyclization of benzimidazoles with alkenes has been faced with low reactivity, often requiring very harsh conditions. To address this challenge, a phosphine oxide-enabled Rh(I)-Al bimetallic catalyst was developed for the reaction, significantly promoting the reactivity and allowing the reaction to run at 120 °C with up to 97% yield.

Abstract
The development of transition metal-catalyzed β-C-H bond activation via highly-strained 4-membered metallacycles has been a formidable task. So far, only scarce examples have been reported to undergo β-C-H bond activation via 4-membered metallacycles, and all of them rely on precious metals. In contrast, earth-abundant and inexpensive 3d transition metal-catalyzed β-C-H bond activation via 4-membered metallacycles still remains an elusive challenge. Herein, we report a phosphine oxide-ligated Ni-Al bimetallic catalyst to activate secondary benzylic C(sp3)-H bonds of formamides via 4-membered nickelacycles, providing a series of α,β-unsaturated γ-lactams in up to 97% yield.

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.

Abstract
During the past decades, in synthetic organic chemistry, directing-group-assisted C-H functionalization is found to be a key tool for the expedient and site-selective construction of C-C and hybrid bonds. Among C-H functionalization of ferrocene derivatives, the directed group strategy is undoubtedly the most commonly used method. Compared to the other directing groups, ferrocene amides can be synthesized easily and are now recognized as one of the most efficient devices for the selective functionalization of certain positions because its metal centre permits fine, tuneable and reversible coordination. The family of amide directing groups mainly comprises monodentate and bidentate directing groups, which are categorized on the basis of coordination sites. In this review, various C-H bond functionalization reactions of ferrocene using amide directing groups are broadly discussed.

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
Direct asymmetric functionalization of the pyridyl C-H bond represents a longstanding challenge in organic chemistry. We herein describe the first enantioselective para-C-H activation of pyridines through the use of a Ni-Al bimetallic catalyst system and N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligand for intermolecular hydroarylation of styrenes. The reaction procceds in high to excellent enantioselectivities (up to 98.5:1.5 er) and high site-selectivities for both styrene and pyridine components (up to >98:2). Consequently, a broad range of enantioenriched 1,1-diarylalkanes containing pyridine moieties could be prepared in a single step with 100% atom economy. Computational studies supported a mechanism involving a ligand-to-ligand H-transfer (LLHT) and reductive elimination sequence, with LLHT being the rate- and enantioselectivity-determining step. DFT studies indicate that the π-π stacking interaction between the NHC aryl fragment and trans-styrenes is critical for high reactivity and enantiocontrol.

Abstract
An efficient and general intermolecular Cobalt(II)-catalyzed asymmetric alkylation of styrenes with (hetero)arenes including indoles, thiophene and electron rich arenes has been developed, providing straightforward access to enantioenriched alkyl(hetero)arenes with high enantioselectivity. Mechanistic studies suggest that the reaction underwent a CoH-mediated hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) with alkenes, followed by a pivotal catalyst-controlled SN 2-like pathway between in situ generated organocobalt(IV) species and aromatic nucleophiles. This is the first CoH-catalyzed asymmetric hydrofunctionalization using carbon nucleophiles, providing a new strategy for asymmetric Friedel-Crafts type alkylation.

Abstract
A rhodium-catalyzed cyclization of azobenzenes and vinylene carbonate via C-H bond activation to construct indazolo[2,3-a]quinolines has been developed. This protocol offers an efficient method for synthesis of the titled products in good yields with broad functional group tolerance. In this reaction, three C-C bonds and C-N bond are formed in one pot, and vinylene carbonate (VC) acts as C1 and C2 synthons as well as "vinylene transfer" agent and acylation reagent in the construction of target-fused heterocycles. Moreover, the products exhibit favorable fluorescence properties, which indicate their potential application as fluorescent materials and biosensors.

Abstract
This review summarizes the state-of-the-art in transition metal-catalyzed asymmetric alkylation of heteroarenes using alkenes (covering literature from 2000 to late 2021). Based on elementary reactions on metals for substrate activation, these reactions are broadly classified in several categories: (A) concerted oxidative addition of heteroaryl C-H bonds on rhodium(I) and iridium(I), (B) ligand-to-ligand hydrogen transfer (LLHT) on low-valent 3d metal complexes of nickel and cobalt, (C) different ways for deprotonation of heteroaryl C-H bonds by late transition metal complexes, especially palladium, including electrophilic aromatic substitution and a related mechanism, base-assisted intramolecular electrophilic substitution, concerted and nonconcerted metalation deprotonation, (D) σ-bond metathesis by d0 early transition metal complexes, (E) electrophilic activation of olefins by Pd(II), Pt(II) and Au(I), and (F) metal hydride insertion of aryl olefins and dienes. The demand to achieve enantiocontrol in the heteroarylation reactions has also driven innovation in chiral ancillary ligands, exemplified by extremely bulky, chiral N-heterocyclic carbenes for nickel catalysts, bulky monodentate oxazolines for Wacker-type reactions and chiral cyclopentadienyl ligands for half-sandwich complexes of scandium.

Abstract
A visible-light-induced radical domino reaction of 1-allyl-2-ethynylbenzoimidazoles with thiosulfonates was developed, which generated the thiosulfonylated pyrrolo[1,2-a]benzimidazoles in moderate to good yields. This reaction proceeded under transition-metal-free conditions with good functional group tolerance and high regioselectivity. The possible pathway involved thiosulfonates were activated through the energy transfer route promoted by photocatalysis.

Abstract
Enantioselective hydroarylation of unactivated terminal akenes constitutes a prominent challenge in organic chemistry. Herein, we reported a Cp*Co(III)-catalyzed asymmetric hydroarylation of unactivated aliphatic terminal alkenes assisted by a new type of tailor-made amino acid ligands. Critical to the chiral induction was the engaging of a novel noncovalent interaction (NCI), which has seldomly been disclosed in the C-H activation area, arising from the molecular recognition among the organocobalt(III) intermediate, the coordinated alkene, and the well-designed chiral ligand. A broad range of C2-alkylated indoles were obtained in high yields and excellent enantioselectivities. DFT calculations revealed the reaction mechanism and elucidated the origins of chiral induction in the stereodetermining alkene insertion step.

Abstract
CuH-catalyzed intramolecular cyclization and intermolecular allylation of benzimidazoles with allenes have been described. The reaction proceeded smoothly with the catalytic system of Cu(OAc)2/Xantphos and catalytic amount of (MeO)2MeSiH. This protocol features mild reaction conditions and a good tolerance of substrates bearing electron-withdrawing, electron-donating, or electron-neutral groups. A new catalytic mechanism was proposed for this copper hydride catalytic system.

Abstract
A novel approach for the asymmetric construction of polycyclic indazole skeletons via enamine-imine activation and PCET activation was developed by merging organocatalysis with photocatalysis through an asymmetric triple-reaction sequence. In this process, five C-X bonds and five consecutive chiral centers were efficiently constructed. Differently substituted polycyclic indazole deriatives were successfully constructed with satisfactory results under mild conditions.

Abstract
The skeletal presence of 1,3-azoles in a variety of bioactive natural products, pharmacophores, and organic materials demands the derivatization of such heteroarenes regioselectively. Plenty of cross-coupling as well as cyclocondensation reactions have been performed to build up these skeletons but remained commercially unrealizable. A couple of severe drawbacks are faced by these traditional protocols that require a more straightforward strategy to obviate them. Transition metal-catalyzed C-H functionalization has emerged as a superior alternative in that context. 1,3-Azoles and their benzo counterparts have been extensively functionalized exploiting both noble and earth-abundant transition metals. Lately, C-2 functionalization have gained much traction due to the ease of attaining high regioselectivity and installation of synthetically manipulative functionalities. This critical review presents a bird's eye view of all major C-2 functionalization of (benz)azoles catalyzed by a diverse set of metals performed over the past 15 years.

Abstract
AbstractStrategies that enable the efficient assembly of complex building blocks from feedstock chemicals are of paramount importance to synthetic chemistry.

Abstract
The construction of 7-membered ring via direct C7-H cyclization of benzoimidazoles with alkenes would provide a more atom- and step-economical route to tricyclic imidazoles and derivatives that widely exist in a broad range of bioactive molecules. However, transition metal-catalyzed C-H cyclization for medium-ring synthesis has been limited to reactive C-H bonds, instead, the activation of unreactive C-H bonds towards medium synthesis still remains an elusive challenge. Herein, we report a direct construction of 7-membered rings via Ni-Al co-catalyzed unreactive C7-H cyclization of benzoimidazoles with alkenes, providing a series of tricyclic imidazoles in 40-98% yield and with up to 95:5 er.

Abstract
Transition metal catalyzed dual C-H activation and annulation with alkynes was an attractive protocol to construct polycyclic π-extended structures. However, most of them were dominated by noble metal catalysts. Disclosed herein was the study of base-metal Ni-catalysis for dual C-H annulation of N-aromatic imidazole, which produced a range of desired polycyclic aza-quinolines in 48-95% yields. The use of bifunctional phosphine oxide ligand proved to be critical for success.

Abstract
This review article provides a perspective on the synthesis of alicyclic and heterocyclic ring-fused benzimidazoles, imidazo[4,5-f]benzimidazoles, and imidazo[5,4-f]benzimidazoles. These heterocycles have a plethora of biological activities with the iminoquinone and quinone derivatives displaying potent bioreductive antitumor activity. Synthesis is categorized according to the cyclization reaction and mechanisms are detailed. Nitrobenzene reduction, cyclization of aryl amidines, lactams and isothiocyanates are described. Protocols include condensation, cross-dehydrogenative coupling with transition metal catalysis, annulation onto benzimidazole, often using CuI-catalysis, and radical cyclization with homolytic aromatic substitution. Many oxidative transformations are under metal-free conditions, including using thermal, photochemical, and electrochemical methods. Syntheses of diazole analogues of mitomycin C derivatives are described. Traditional oxidations of o-(cycloamino)anilines using peroxides in acid via the t-amino effect remain popular.
