In this article, we report a photocatalytic protocol for the isomerization of 1,2-disubstituted cyclopropanols to linear ketones. The reaction proceeds <i>via</i> radical intermediates and tolerates various functional groups.

By using an iron-based catalyst, access to enantioenriched 1,1-diarylakanes was enabled through an enantioselective Suzuki-Miyaura crosscoupling reaction. The combination of a chiral cyanobis(oxazoline) ligand framework and 1,3,5-trimethoxybenzene additive were essential to afford high yields and enantioselectivities in cross-coupling reactions between unactivated aryl boronic esters and a variety of benzylic chlorides, including challenging ortho-substituted benzylic chloride substrates. Mechanistic investigations implicate a stereoconvergent pathway involving carbon-centered radical intermediates.

The stability and wide availability of carboxylic acids make them valuable reagents in chemical synthesis. Most transition metal catalyzed processes using carboxylic acid substrates are initiated by a decarboxylation event that generates reactive carbanion or radical intermediates. Developing enantioselective methodologies relying on these principles can be challenging, as highly reactive species tend to react indiscriminately without selectivity. Furthermore, anionic or radical intermediates generated from decarboxylation can be incompatible with protic and electrophilic functionality, or groups that undergo trapping with radicals. We demonstrate that metal-catalyzed enantioselective benzylation reactions of allylic electrophiles can occur directly from aryl acetic acids. The reaction proceeds via a pathway in which decarboxylation is the terminal event, occurring after stereoselective carbon–carbon bond formation. The mechanistic features of the process enable enantioselective benzylation without the generation of a highly basic nucleophile. Thus, the process has broad functional group compatibility that would not be possible employing established protocols.<br>

Sulfamides guide intermolecular chlorine transfer to gamma-C(sp<sup>3</sup>) centers. This unusual position-selectivity arises because accessed sulfamidyl radical intermediates engage in otherwise rare 1,6-hydrogen-atom transfer processes. The disclosed chlorine-transfer reaction relies on a light-initiated radical chain-propagation mechanism to oxidize C(sp<sup>3</sup>)-H bonds.

Design and implementation of the first (asymmetric) Fe-catalyzed intra- and intermolecular difunctionalization of vinyl cyclopropanes (VCPs) with alkyl halides and aryl Grignard reagents has been realized via a mechanistically driven approach. Mechanistic studies support the diffusion of the alkyl radical intermediates out of the solvent cage to participate in an intra- or -intermolecular radical cascade with the VCP followed by re-entering the Fe radical cross-coupling cycle to undergo selective C(sp2)-C(sp3) bond formation. Overall, we provide new design principles for Fe-mediated radical processes and underscore the potential of using combined computations and experiments to accelerate the development of challenging transformations.

The cathodically and photochemically induced decomposition of thioazo compounds XC6H4-N2-S-C6H4CH3 and their polymers with X = NO2, COOH, and SO3H were investigated. The formation of carbon-centered XC6H4. and sulfur-centered .S-C6H4Y radicals was confirmed using spin-trap technique. These reactive radicals either abstract hydrogen from CH3CN solvent molecule forming .CH2CN radical or they recombine to cage products XC6H4-S-C6H4CH3 eliminating N2. The decomposition rate of the investigated thioazo compounds is characterized by a formal half-life time of 5 to 10 s.

The oxidations of the title perchlorates, bearing the sterically diverse 6'-substituents (H, Me, Et, i-Pr, n-Bu, t-Bu and Ph) in two series with the same 4-substituents (Ph and t-Bu) lead to pairs of isomeric 3',5-disubstituted (Z)-1'-phenyl-3'-(2-phenylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-3-yl)prop-2'- en-1'-ones and 3,6'-disubstituted [5-phenyl-1-(6'-pyridin-2'-yl)-1H-pyrrol-2-yl](phenyl)methanones except where the both variable substituents are t-Bu and then only pyrrolic product is formed. Considering steric interactions of the substituents in some intermediate and/or transition states a multistep mechanism for the oxidative transformation is proposed and supported by model PM3-PECI calculations of some radical intermediates.
