Abstract
We report a general, regioselective, and metal free γ-fluorination of α,β-unsaturated carbonyls via silyl dienol ethers that are readily prepared from simple ketones and aldehydes. The transformation displays broad scope including 27 cyclic and acyclic siloxydienes providing γ-fluoro compounds in 28-91 % yield. Notably, the reported conditions are also suitable for the synthesis of challenging tertiary fluorides. The regioselectivity of the reaction was studied on a series of acyclic siloxydienes and was observed to be sensitive to the conformational flexibility of the substrate. Diversification of the γ-fluorocarbonyls demonstrates the promise of fluorine as a stereocontrol element.

Abstract
In 2015, we reported a photochemical method for directed C-C bond cleavage/radical fluorination of relatively unstrained cyclic acetals using Selectfluor and catalytic 9-fluorenone. Herein, we provide a detailed mechanistic study of this reaction, during which it was discovered that the key electron transfer step proceeds through substrate oxidation from a Selectfluor-derived N-centered radical intermediate (rather than through initially suspected photoinduced electron transfer). This finding led to proof of concept for two new methodologies, demonstrating that unstrained C-C bond fluorination can also be achieved under chemical and electrochemical conditions. Moreover, as C-C and C-H bond fluorination reactions are both theoretically possible on 2-aryl-cycloalkanone acetals and would involve the same reactive intermediate, we studied the competition between single-electron transfer (SET) and apparent hydrogen-atom transfer (HAT) pathways in acetal fluorination reactions using density functional theory. Finally, these analyses were applied more broadly to other classes of C-H and C-C bond fluorination reactions developed over the past decade, addressing the feasibility of SET processes masquerading as HAT in C-H fluorination literature.

Abstract
We describe an asymmetric organocatalytic method to synthesize 1,7-dicarbonyl compounds containing a β-stereocenter. The chemistry relies on the formation of γ-keto radicals, generated upon oxidative ring opening of cyclobutanols mastered by an organic photoredox catalyst. These nonstabilized primary radicals are stereoselectively intercepted by an iminium ion intermediate, formed upon activation of aliphatic and aromatic enals by a chiral secondary amine catalyst. This organocatalytic photoredox method served to prepare scaffolds found in natural products and drug molecules.

Abstract
Herein we described an access to biaryl lactones from ortho-aryl benzoic acids via intramolecular O-H/C-H oxidative coupling with the commonly used cerium ammonium nitrate (CAN) as the one-electron oxidant under a thermal condition. The radical interrupting experiment suggested a radical process, while the kinetic isotope effect (KIE) showed that the C-H cleavage likely was not involved in the rate-determining step. Competitive reactions, especially the strikingly different ρ values of Hammett equations, indicated that the reaction rate was more sensitive to the electronic properties on the aryl moiety rather than the carboxylic moiety, which corresponded to the first single electron transfer (SET) step. In addition, the quite negative ρ values (-4.7) of the aryl moiety unveiled the remarkable electrophilic nature of the second intramolecular radical addition process, which was also consistent with product yields and regioselectivity. Moreover, control experiments disclosed that the single electron in the third step was also transferred to CeIV instead of molecular oxygen. Besides, the possible role of co-solvents trifluoroethanol (TFE) and its influences on the CeIV species were discussed. This work elucidated the possible mechanism by proposing the step that had more effects on the total reaction rate and the species that was responsible for the last single electron transfer.
