The catalytic and enantioselective construction of quaternary (all-carbon substituents) stereocenters poses a formidable challenge in organic synthesis due to the hindrance caused by steric factors. One conceptually viable potentially versatile approach is coupling C–C bond through an outer-sphere mechanism, accompanied realization enantiocontrol cooperative catalysis; however, examples such processes are yet be identified. Herein, we present method for creating different compounds with photoredox/Fe/chiral primary amine triple catalysis. This facilitates connection unactivated alkyl source tertiary moiety, which also rare. scalable process exhibits mild conditions, does not necessitate use base, possesses good functional-group tolerance. Preliminary investigations into underlying mechanisms have provided valuable insights reaction pathway.

A novel approach for the synthesis of pyrone and indanone derivatives utilizing Fe(III)-catalyzed reductive radical ring expansion olefins cyclopropenone has been proposed. The preliminary mechanism study shows that alkyl is formed by hydrogen atom transfer, which can open tension then generate intermediate. There are two paths intermediate: when there a hydroxyl group at β-position olefin, reaction produces pyrones, otherwise 1-indanone generated. This method mild conditions wide substrate adaptability allows fragment to be conveniently accessed.

Current methodologies for the functionalization of [1.1.1]propellane primarily focus on achieving 1, 3-difunctionalized bicyclo[1.1.1]pentane or ring-opened cyclobutane moiety. Herein, we report an innovative approach 3-difunctionalization [1.1.1]propellane, enabling access to a diverse range highly functionalized cyclobutanes via nucleophilic attack followed by ring opening and iron-hydride hydrogen atom transfer. To enable this method, developed efficient iron-catalyzed hydropyridylation various alkenes C - H alkylation pyridines at C4 position, eliminating need stoichiometric quantities oxidants reductants. Mechanistic investigations reveal that resulting N-centered radical serves as effective oxidizing agent, facilitating single-electron transfer oxidation reduced iron catalyst. This process efficiently sustains catalytic cycle, offering significant advantages substrates with oxidatively sensitive functionalities are generally incompatible alternative approaches. The strategy presented herein is not only mechanistically compelling but also demonstrates broad versatility, highlighting its potential late-stage functionalization.

Abstract We herein report radical hydroazidation and hydrohalogenation of mono-, di- trisubstituted alkenes through iron catalysis. The alkene moiety that often occurs as a functionality in natural products is readily transformed into useful building blocks this approach. Commercially available tosylates α-halogenated esters are used trapping reagents combination with silanes reductants. reported Markovnikov hydroazidation, hydrobromination, hydrochlorination, hydroiodination occur under mild conditions. These hydrofunctionalizations valuable practical alternatives to ionic hydrohalogenations the corresponding mineral acids have be run harsher acidic conditions, which diminishes functional group tolerance. Good excellent diastereoselectivities can obtained for hydrofunctionalization cyclic alkenes.

Quaternary carbons are embedded in various natural products, pharmaceuticals, and organic materials. However, constructing this valuable motif is far from trivial. Conventional approaches mainly rely on classical polar disconnections encounter bottlenecks concerning harsh conditions, functional group tolerance, regioselectivity, step economy.
