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
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
The asymmetric hydrophosphination of cyclopropenes with phosphines is of much interest and importance, but has remained hardly explored to date probably because of the lack of suitable catalysts. We report here the diastereo- and enantioselective hydrophosphination of 3,3-disubstituted cyclopropenes with phosphines by a chiral lanthanocene catalyst bearing the C2 -symmetric 5,6-dioxy-4,7-trans-dialkyl-substituted tetrahydroindenyl ligands. This protocol offers a selective and efficient route for the synthesis of a new family of chiral phosphinocyclopropane derivatives, featuring 100 % atom efficiency, good diastereo- and enantioselectivity, broad substrate scope, and no need for a directing group.

Abstract
The first examples of regioselective aryl ortho-C-H functionalization with diphenyldiazomethane for the construction of Caryl-Nhydrazinato bonds were accomplished via the activation of C-H bonds and the subsequent reaction of diphenyldiazomethane with the RE-Caryl bond. The reactions of rare-earth metal monoalkyl complexes LRE(CH2SiMe3)(THF)2 (L = 2,5-[(2-pyrrolyl)CPh2]2(N-Me-pyrrole)) supported by a neutral N-methylpyrrole anchored dipyrrolyl ligand with 2 equiv. of Ph2CN2 gave irreversibly unprecedented hydrazonato-functionalized imino rare-earth metal complexes LRE(Ph2CNNC6H4-(o-CNHPh) (RE = Y (2a), Lu (2a')) in good yields involving a rather complex process including the interaction of a diazo unit with a RE-Calkyl bond, a β-H elimination, a N-N cleavage, 1,4-hydrogen transfer and the subsequent C-N coupling with another diphenyldiazomethane. More important is that regioselective aryl C-H bond functionalization with diphenyldiazomethane to construct the Caryl-Nhydrazinato bonds can be easily achieved by three-component reactions of rare-earth metal monoalkyl complexes, a wide range of substituted imines (including aldimines, ketimines or analogous 2-phenylpyridine) and diphenyldiazomethane, affording various hydrazonato-functionalized phenyl, thienyl imino or pyridyl rare-earth metal complexes 2b-2j at room temperature. A further study indicated that the substituents on the phenyl ring have a great effect on the reaction pathway and governed the Caryl-Nhydrazinato bond construction. Moreover, the experimental studies show that the formation of the Caryl-Nhydrazinato bonds is thermodynamically facile, which could be realized at room temperature easily.

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
The atroposelective synthesis of axially chiral acyclic olefins remains a daunting challenge due to their relatively lower racemization barriers, especially for trisubstituted ones. In this work, atroposelective C-H olefination has been realized for synthesis of open-chain trisubstituted olefins via C-H activation of two classes of (hetero)arenes in the coupling with sterically hindered alkynes. The employment of phenyl N-methoxycarbamates as arene reagents afforded phenol-tethered olefins, with the carbamate being a traceless directing group. The olefination of N-methoxy-2-indolylcarboxamides afforded the corresponding chiral olefin by circumventing the redox-neutral [4 + 2] annulation. The reactions proceeded with excellent Z/E selectivity, chemoselectivity, regioselectivity, and enantioselectivity in both hydroarylation systems.

Abstract
The amine-catalyzed [3 + 3] annulations of β'-acetoxy allenoates with 1C,3N-bisnucleophiles have been established. Under the optimal reaction conditions, this operationally simple synthetic process works well with a wide substrate scope, delivering novel 1,2-fused benzimidazole derivatives in moderate to good yields. In addition, preliminary attempts on the asymmetric version of this reaction have been explored by using cinchona alkaloid-based tertiary amines.

Transition metal-catalyzed C-H bond functionalization is an important method in organic synthesis, but the development of methods that are lower cost and have a less environmental impact is desirable. Here, a Cu-catalyzed asymmetric C(sp2)-H arylation is reported. With diaryliodonium salts as arylating reagents, a range of ortho-arylated P-chiral phosphonic diamides were obtained in moderate to excellent yields with high enantioselectivities (up to 92% ee). Meanwhile, enantioselective C-3 arylation of diarylphosphine oxide indoles was also realized under similar conditions to construct axial chirality.

Abstract
Highly functionalized pyrrolidine-2,3-diones can be synthesized efficiently and stereoselectively under mild conditions using a biocatalytic approach. The reaction led to the formation of new all-carbon quaternary stereocenters from Myceliophthora thermophila laccase (Novozym 51003) catalyzed oxidation of catechols to ortho-quinones and subsequent 1,4-addition with 3-hydroxy-1,5-dihydro-2H-pyrrol-2-ones. The reaction was conducted with various substituents on both reactants, resulting in 13 products in moderate to good yields (42-91%). The same 15 reactions were also tested with K3Fe(CN)6 as a catalyst, but here only one reaction resulted in a product (60% yield).

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
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
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
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
This work describes the chemo- and stereoselective benzylic C(sp3)-H alkenylation of tertiary ortho-methyl anilines with internal alkynes using a simple β-diketiminato scandium catalyst. This protocol offers an efficient method for the synthesis of a new family of tertiary ortho-allylanilines in high yields. The resultant alkenylation products facilely underwent further chemical transformation to other valuable anilines. A cationic scandium benzyl species was isolated from a stoichiometric reaction and confirmed to be the catalytic intermediate.

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
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
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
Acyclic asymmetric quaternary stereocenters, which are composed of four carbon-carbon bonds, were finely constructed by utilizing a face-selective alkylation of enolate intermediates derived from an asymmetric Michael addition reaction of a chiral lithium amide with trisubstituted (E)-α,β-unsaturated esters. The present face-selective alkylation was able to employ diverse alkyl halides as an electrophile to afford various Michael adducts having an all-carbon quaternary stereocenter. With regard to the deprotection of the chiral auxiliary, N-iodosuccinimide used in our previous study did not work in the present cases; however, we found that pyridine iodine monochloride in the presence of H2O was effective to remove the bornyl group and the benzyl group on the amino group to provide the β-amino ester derivative.

Abstract
We report a versatile, highly enantioselective intramolecular hydrocarbonation reaction that provides a direct access to heteropolycyclic systems bearing chiral quaternary carbon stereocenters. The method, which relies on an iridium(I)/bisphosphine chiral catalyst, is particularly efficient for the synthesis of five-, six- and seven-membered fused indole and pyrrole products, bearing one and two stereocenters, with enantiomeric excesses of up to >99 %. DFT computational studies allowed to obtain a detailed mechanistic profile and identify a cluster of weak non-covalent interactions as key factors to control the enantioselectivity.

Abstract
Several valuable biologically active molecules can be obtained through C-H activation processes. However, the use of expensive and not readily accessible catalysts complicates the process of pharmacological application of these compounds. A plausible way to overcome this issue is developing and using cheaper, more accessible, and equally effective catalysts. First-row transition (3d) metals have shown to be important catalysts in this matter. This review summarizes the use of 3d metal catalysts in C-H activation processes to obtain potentially (or proved) biologically active compounds.

Chiral cyclopentadienyl rhodium (CpRh) complex-catalyzed asymmetric C-H functionalization reactions have witnessed a significant progress in organic synthesis. In sharp contrast, the reported chiral Cp ligands are limited to C-linked Cp and are often synthetically challenging. To address these issues, we have developed a novel class of tunable chiral cyclopentadienyl ligands bearing oxygen linkers, which were efficient catalysts for C-H arylation of benzo[h]quinolines with 1-diazonaphthoquinones, affording axially chiral heterobiaryls in excellent yields and enantioselectivity (up to 99 % yield, 98.5:1.5 er). Mechanistic studies suggest that the reaction is likely to proceed by electrophilic C-H activation, and followed by coupling of the cyclometalated rhodium(III) complex with 1-diazonaphthoquinones.

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
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
Although substituted benzimidazoles are common substructures in bioactive small molecules, synthetic methods for their derivatization are still limited. Previously, several enantioselective allylation reactions of benzimidazoles were reported that functionalize the nucleophilic nitrogen atom. Herein we describe a reversal of this inherent selectivity toward N-allylation by using electrophilic N-OPiv benzimidazoles with readily available 1,3-dienes as nucleophile precursors. This CuH-catalyzed approach utilizes mild reaction conditions, exhibits broad functional-group compatibility, and exclusively forms the C2-allylated product with excellent stereoselectivity.

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.
