Abstract Metalloradical catalysis (MRC), predominantly exemplified by metalloporphyrin complexes, has emerged as a promising strategy for regulating radical reactions and broadening their synthetic applications. In this paper, we report that cobaloxime functioning surrogate systems, can mediate cyclopropanation of olefins using donor/acceptor‐type carbene precursor α‐aryl diazoacetates through the MRC process. The reaction proceeds under mild conditions, yielding cyclopropane derivatives in good yields with high diastereoselectivity. exhibits extensive substrate tolerance, encompassing gram‐scale transformations synthesis pharmaceutical compounds. Our discoveries underscore potential cobaloxime‐catalyzed valuable asset organic syntheses further expand repertoire metalloradical systems catalysis.

Abstract Allylic amide moieties are commonly encountered in natural products and privileged structures pharmaceuticals agrochemicals. Moreover, because allylic can be to converted into an array of high‐value motifs, they have been widely employed organic synthesis. However, the development catalytic systems for intermolecular amidation olefins, particularly branched α ‐olefins, has proven challenging. Here, a biomimetic, synergistic method is reported that combines photoredox, cobalt, Brønsted base catalysis synthesis substituted amides from ‐olefins simple imides without using oxidants. This low‐cost, operationally features broad substrate scope excellent functional group compatibility. it successfully used functionalization several structurally complex molecules demonstrating method's potential utility medicinal chemistry applications. Mechanistic studies revealed C( sp 3 )─N bond formation mediated by nitrogen‐centered radical intermediate, which generated via sequence involving deprotonation single‐electron oxidation.
