In recent years, the C–H bond activation field has known very fast expansion offering valuable synthetic tools. Consequently, the quest for new approaches to afford atom- and step-economical processes has driven the scientific community to imagine original strategies. In this context, the direct functionalization of substrates by a transition-metal-catalyzed C–H bond activation using a transient directing group has emerged as a promising approach. This short review focuses on the major progress made in this field to provide to the reader an overview of the recent advances.1 Introduction2 From a Historical Point of View3 Functionalization of Carbonyl Derivatives4 Functionalization of Amines Derivatives5 Summary and Outlook

Thanks to the unique features of the fluorine atom and the fluorinated groups, fluorine-containing molecules are essential. Therefore, the search for new fluorinated groups as well as straightforward and original methodologies for their installation is of prime importance. Especially, the combination of organofluorine chemistry with transition metal-catalyzed C–H bond functionalization reactions offered straightforward tools to access original fluorinated scaffolds. In this context, over the last years, our group focused on the development of original methodologies to synthesize fluorine-containing molecules with a special attention to emergent fluorinated groups. The present account highlights our recent contributions to the synthesis of highly value-added fluorine-containing compounds by transition metal-catalyzed C–H bond activation.

AbstractIn recent years, transition-metal-catalyzed enantioselective C–H bond functionalization using chiral transient directing groups (cTDGs) or native directing groups (NDGs) has emerged as a powerful and attractive­ synthetic approach to streamline the synthesis of chiral molecules­. This short review focuses on recent advances on imine-based cTDGs strategies and native amine and carboxylic acid directed strategies for the asymmetric functionalization of various C–H bonds. We have endeavored to highlight the great potential of this methodology and hope that this review will inspire further research in this area.1 Introduction2 Transient-Directing-Group-Enabled Enantioselective C–H Functionalization2.1 Generation of Central Chirality2.2 Generation of Axial Chirality2.3 Generation of Planar Chirality3 Native-Directing-Group-Enabled Enantioselective C–H Functionalization3.1 Native Amines as Directing Groups3.2 Native Carboxylic Acids as Directing Groups4 Conclusions and Outlook

AbstractTransition-metal-catalyzed C–N bond formation is one of the most important pathways to synthesize N-heterocycles. Hydroxylamines can be transformed into a nucleophilic reagent to react with a carbon cation or coordinate with a transition metal; it can also become an electrophilic nitrogen source to react with arenes, alkenes, and alkynes. In this short review, the progress made on transition-metal-catalyzed cycloadditions with hydroxylamines as a nitrogen source is summarized.1 Introduction2 Cycloaddition To Form Aziridine Derivatives2.1 Intramolecular Cycloaddition To Form Aziridine Derivatives2.2 Intermolecular Cycloaddition To Form Aziridine Derivatives3 Cycloaddition To Form Indole Derivatives4 Cycloaddition To Form Other N-Heterocycles4.1 Aza-Heck-Type Amination Reactions4.2 Nitrene Insertion Amination Reactions4.3 Intramolecular Nucleophilic and Electrophilic Amination Reactions5 Conclusion and Outlook
