Abstract
We report here a chromium-catalyzed intramolecular arylation of unactivated C-H bonds with C-halide bonds under mild conditions. This reaction was enabled by using a low-cost CrCl2 salt as the precatalyst in combination with allylmagnesium bromide and E/Z-mixed 1-halo-2-styrylarenes as substates, providing a strategy for the construction of functionalized phenanthrene compounds without using external ligands.

Abstract
A silver-catalyzed phosphonation of 2-aryloxazolines has been accomplished. This protocol provides highly regioselective access to para-phosphonation products with good functional group tolerance and moderate to good yields via cross-dehydrogenation coupling. Mechanistic studies have shown that para-phosphonation products are obtained via a radical pathway. Furthermore, the directing oxazoline group in the para-phosphonation products is removable and can be converted to benzoic esters.

Abstract
HOAc-promoted construction of chroman-4-ones with a sulfur atom and an α-carbonyl quaternary carbon center directly from ortho-hydroxyacetophenones and DMSO is described. In these unique reactions, DMSO is activated by HOAc and provides three different units (CH2, CH2OH, and CH2SMe) in the target molecules. This reaction displays good substrate scope and reaction yields with a series of substitutes. The mechanism showed that the three units were formed in sequential order.

Abstract
The nickel-catalyzed cross-electrophile coupling of 1,2,3-benzotriazin-4(3H)-ones with aryl bromides to generate a diverse array of ortho-arylated benzamide derivatives has been developed. The reaction displayed good functional group tolerance with Zn as the reductant. The key to this transformation is the ring opening of benzotriazinones, which undergo a denitrogenative process to obtain various benzamide derivatives (29 examples, 42-93% yield). The scalability of this transformation was demonstrated.

Abstract
A visible-light-driven photoredox-catalyzed nonaqueous oxidative C-N cleavage of N,N-dibenzylanilines to 2° amides is reported. Further, we have applied this protocol on 2-(dibenzylamino)benzamide to afford quinazolinones with (NH4)2S2O8 as an additive. Mechanistic studies imply that the reaction might undergo in situ generation of α-amino radical to imine by C-N bond cleavage followed by the addition of superoxide ion to form amides.

Abstract
AbstractTransition-metal-catalyzed cross-coupling has emerged as one of the most powerful and useful tools for the formation of C–C and C–heteroatom bonds. Given the shortage of resources of precious metals on Earth, the use of Earth-abundant metals as catalysts in developing cost-effective strategies for cross-coupling is a current trend in synthetic chemistry. Compared with the achievements made using first-row nickel, iron, cobalt, and even manganese catalysts, the group 6 metal chromium has rarely been used to promote cross-coupling. This perspective covers recent advances in chromium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions in transformations of chemically inert C(aryl)–O, C(aryl)–N, and C(aryl)–H bonds, offering selective strategies for molecule construction. The ability of low-valent Cr with a high-spin state to participate in two-electron oxidative addition is highlighted; this is different from the mechanism involving single-electron transfer that is usually assigned to chromium-mediated transformations.1 Introduction2 Chromium-Catalyzed Kumada Coupling of Nonactivated C(aryl)–O and C(aryl)–N Bonds3 Chromium-Catalyzed Reductive Cross-Coupling of Two Nonactivated C(aryl)–Heteroatom Bonds4 Chromium-Catalyzed Functionalization of Nonactivated C(aryl)–H Bonds5 Conclusions and Outlook

Abstract
ConspectusTransition-metal catalysis has traditionally been dominated by precious metals because of their high reactivity toward chemical transformations. As a cost-effective alternative, catalysis by earth-abundant group 6 metal chromium is underdeveloped, and its reactivity remains largely unexplored, although the industrially important Phillips catalyst, which is composed of Cr as the active metal, is currently used to supply almost 40% of the total world demand for high-density polyethylene. Cr has traditionally served in organoreagents with high-valent states (≥2+), which are typified by reactions involving Nozaki-Hiyama-Kishi (NHK) and Takai-Utimoto one-electron transfer processes. Given that low-valent metals usually facilitate the process of oxidative addition (OA), studying the catalysis of Cr in the low-valent state provides the opportunity to develop new transformations. However, probably because of the low stability of reactive low-valent Cr or the lack of catalytic activity of structurally stable complexes, there has been limited success with respect to developing catalysis promoted by low-valent Cr. In recent years, our group has probed the reactivity of low-valent Cr in catalysis by adopting a strategy of forming reactive Cr in situ. In this Account, we detail our efforts to study the catalytic behavior and mechanism of low-valent Cr in challenging transformations, such as the cleavage of chemically inert bonds for the cross-coupling and hydrofunctionalization of arenes and nitro motifs, by developing strategies to address the prominent selectivity issues. We highlight the finding that low-valent Cr, being formed in situ, possesses the intriguing ability to promote the catalytic cleavage of unactivated C-O, C-N, and C-H bonds to achieve the Kumada couplings and even to enable challenging cross-coupling between two unactivated C(aryl)-O/C(aryl)-N bonds. During these catalytic processes, Cr usually adopts a high-spin state to interact with chemicals, allowing for insertion into unactivated σ-bonds. The OA catalytic model involving a two-electron process for the cleavage of unactivated bonds has rarely been considered for Cr. We highlight the finding that Cr allows for the breakage of two chemically inert bonds in one catalytic cycle. This ability is intriguing because most transition metals are suitable only for the cleavage of one unactivated bond in catalysis. Mechanisms involving two-electron OA for Cr are unusual, with processes involving one-electron transfer more often proposed, as exemplified in the NHK reactions. These reactions provide efficient strategies for forming functionalized benzaldehydes, amides, anilines, and amines, usually with high levels of selectivity. We hope that this account will extend the scope of cognition to Cr catalysis.

Abstract
Direct para-selective C-H functionalization of arenes remains a daunting challenge and is still significantly restricted to a few scaffolds. Herein, we report an unprecedented pyridine-based para-directing template (DT) assisted, Pd-catalyzed para-C-H alkenylation of three classes of arenes, i.e. phenylpropanoic acids, 2-phenyl benzoic acids and benzyl alcohols, with a series of alkenes including perfluoroalkenes. Notably, the pyridine-based para-DT could be easily synthesized and readily recycled under mild conditions. These results may find application in rapid construction of para-substituted arenes and stimulate the exploration of novel methods for para-C-H functionalization of arenes.

Abstract
Among base metals used for C-H activation reactions, chromium(III) is rather unexplored despite its natural abundance and low toxicity. We report herein chromium(III)-catalyzed C(sp2)-H functionalization of an ortho-position of aromatic and α,β-unsaturated secondary amides using readily available AlMe3 as a base and using bromoalkynes, allyl bromide, and 1,4-dihydro-1,4-epoxynaphthalene as electrophiles. This redox-neutral reaction taking place at 70-90 °C, requires as low as 1-2 mol % of CrCl3 or Cr(acac)3 as a catalyst without any added ligand, and tolerates functional groups such as aryl iodide, boronate, and thiophene groups. Stoichiometric and kinetics studies as well as kinetic isotope effects suggest that the catalytic cycle consists of a series of thermally stable but reactive intermediates bearing two molecules of the amide substrate on one chromium atom and also that one of these chromate(III) complexes takes part in the alkynylation, allylation, and naphthalenation reactions. The proposed mechanism accounts for the effective suppression of methyl group delivery from AlMe3 for ortho-C-H methylation.

Abstract
The design and gram-scale synthesis of a cyclohexa-1,4-diene-based surrogate of isobutene gas is reported. Using the highly electron-deficient Lewis acid B(C6 F5 )3 , application of this surrogate in the hydromethallylation of electron-rich styrene derivatives provided sterically congested quaternary carbon centers. The reaction proceeds by C(sp3 )-C(sp3 ) bond formation at a tertiary carbenium ion that is generated by alkene protonation. The possibility of two concurrent mechanisms is proposed on the basis of mechanistic experiments using a deuterated surrogate.

Abstract
Sequential transformations of unactivated C-O and C-H bonds under chromium catalysis are described. The use of a N-benzyl-substituted imino group as an auxiliary combined with chromium(II) chloride as a precatalyst and 2,3-dichlorobutane as an oxidant allows the arene C-O and C-H bonds to sequentially couple to arylmagnesium reagents to incorporate two identical or different aryl groups into the ortho positions of benzaldehydes.
