<p>The introduction of substituents on bare heterocyclic scaffolds can selectively be achieved by directed C–H functionalization. However, such methods have only occasionally been used, in an iterative manner, to decorate various positions of a medicinal scaffold to build chemical libraries. We herein report the multiple, site selective, metal-catalyzed C–H functionalization of a "programmed" 4-hydroxyquinoline. This medicinally privileged template indeed possesses multiple reactive sites for diversity-oriented functionalization, of which four were targeted. The C-2 and C-8 decorations were directed by an <i>N</i>-oxide, before taking benefit of an <i>O</i>-carbamoyl protection at C-4 to perform a Fries rearrangement and install a carboxamide at C-3. This also released the carbonyl group of 4-quinolones, the ultimate directing group to functionalize position 5. Our study highlights the power of multiple C–H functionalization to generate diversity in a biologically relevant library, after showing its strong antimalarial potential.</p>

The significance of site selective functionalization stands upon the superior selectivity, easy synthesis and diverse product utility. In this work we demonstrate the <i>para</i>-selective introduction of versatile nitrile moiety, enabled by detachable and reusable H-bonded auxiliary. The methodology holds its efficiency irrespective of substrate electronic bias. The conspicuous shift in the step energetics was probed by both experimental and computational mechanistic tools heralds the inception of <i>para</i>-deuteration. The synthetic impact of the methodology was highlighted with reusability of directing group and post synthetic modifications
