Abstract
Achieving the selective modification of symmetric poly-hydroxylated compounds presents a significant challenge due to the presence of identical active sites. Herein, we address this challenge through the design of a ternary catalytic system that includes a photoredox catalyst, a hydrogen atom transfer promotor and a carbonation catalyst. This catalytic system enables the reversible carbonation of acyclic polyols under CO2 atmosphere, which modulates the reactivity of its distinct C-H bonds toward hydrogen atom transfers. An exquisite selectivity for the monoalkylation is achieved in a variety of unprotected light polyols, yielding valuable building blocks in short reaction times. Mechanistic and computational studies demonstrate that the formation of an intramolecular hydrogen bond between the transient carbonate and the free alcohol is pivotal for the kinetic and thermodynamic activation of a specific alcohol.

Abstract
An intermolecular direct α-C-H acylation of alkenes was revealed by the visible-light-mediated N-heterocyclic carbene and quinuclidine catalysis. This convenient protocol provides a facile synthesis toward novel natural products and drug derivatives of α-substituted vinyl ketones. Mechanistic investigations indicated that the transformation proceeded via sequential radical addition, radical coupling, and an elimination process.

Abstract
This paper reports the efficient synthesis of substituted (Z)-N-allyl sulfonamides via a palladium-catalyzed three-component tandem reaction of N-buta-2,3-dienyl sulfonamides with iodides and sulfonyl hydrazide or sulfinic acid sodium salt as nucleophiles. Pd(PPh3)4 (2.5 mol %), K2CO3, and THF were used as the optimal catalyst, base, and solvent, respectively. The substituted (Z)-N-allyl sulfonamides were obtained in a 30-83% overall yield. Mechanistic investigations revealed that the formation of the single (Z)-isomer was controlled by the formation of a six-membered palladacycle intermediate.

Abstract
The site selective C(sp2)-H bond functionalization of olefins has been achieved through a visible-light-induced photoredox-quinuclidine dual catalysis upon merging the quinuclidinium radical cation addition to alkene strategy and the distal heteroaryl ipso-migration strategy. This synthetic protocol features a simple operation with readily available starting materials in good step-economy to access alkenylheteroaromatic products in moderate to good yields under mild conditions. A plausible cascade catalytic reaction mechanism is also proposed.
