A new methodology is described, consisting of the use of molecular pools in palladium-catalyzed sequential processes occurring under mild conditions with high selectivity. These reactions involve palladacycle formation from aryl iodide, palladium, and norbornene, the latter behaving as a second catalyst that is first incorporated into the metallacycle and expelled at the end of the process. Selective alkylation or arylation of the arene nucleus occurring by oxidative addition/reductive elimination of palladacycles are coupled, after norbornene expulsion, with C­H or C­C bond-forming reactions such as hydrogenolysis, olefin insertion, arylboronic coupling, etc. The variety of possible combinations offers a powerful tool for the selective synthesis of unusual and not readily accessible aromatics.

Cascade cyclocarbopalladation of the readily available aryl/alkyl-substituted propargylic amides containing an aryl iodide moiety, followed by Suzuki–Miyaura coupling with arylboronic acids, allowed an efficient regio- and stereoselective synthesis of tetrasubstituted 4-methylene-3,4-dihydroisoquinolin-1(2H)-ones. Moreover, cascade cyclocarbopalladation, followed by the reaction with 2-alkynyltrifluoroacetanilides, accomplished a double cyclization to afford challenging 4-methylene-3,4-dihydroisoquinolin-1(2H)-ones bearing a 3-indolyl substituent through aminopalladation/reductive elimination.

An efficient 1,5-cyclooctadiene–PdCl2/dicyclohexyl(2′,4′,6′-triisopropylbiphenyl-2-yl)phosphine (XPhos) catalytic system was developed for C–H allylation of polyfluoroarenes with allylic pivalates. The reactions showed excellent functional-group tolerance, good yields, and high regioselectivities. Mechanistic investigations supported a (π-allyl)palladium complex pathway through a directed oxidative addition of the allylic pivalate to palladium, followed by sequential nucleophilic attack by the polyfluorobenzene and reductive elimination. In a gram-scale reaction, a palladium loading of 0.5 mol% was enough to afford the required product in good yield.

Transition metal–catalyzed coupling reactions have become one of the most important tools in modern synthesis. However, an inherent limitation to these reactions is the need to balance operations, because the factors that favor bond cleavage via oxidative addition ultimately inhibit bond formation via reductive elimination. Here, we describe an alternative strategy that exploits simple visible-light excitation of palladium to drive both oxidative addition and reductive elimination with low barriers. Palladium-catalyzed carbonylations can thereby proceed under ambient conditions, with challenging aryl or alkyl halides and difficult nucleophiles, and generate valuable carbonyl derivatives such as acid chlorides, esters, amides, or ketones in a now-versatile fashion. Mechanistic studies suggest that concurrent excitation of palladium(0) and palladium(II) intermediates is responsible for this activity.

<p>The masked Ti(II) synthon (<sup>Ket</sup>guan)(<i>η</i><sup>6</sup>-Im<sup>Dipp</sup>N)Ti (<b>1</b>) oxidatively adds across thiophene to give ring-opened (<sup>Ket</sup>guan)(Im<sup>Dipp</sup>N)Ti[<i>κ</i><sup>2</sup>-<i>S</i>(CH)<sub>3</sub><i>C</i>H] (<b>2</b>). Complex <b>2</b> is photosensitive, and upon exposure to light, reductively eliminates thiophene to regenerate <b>1</b> – a rare example of early-metal mediated oxidative-addition/reductive-elimination chemistry. DFT calculations indicate strong titanium π-backdonation to the thiophene π*-orbitals leads to the observed thiophene ring opening across titanium, while a proposed photoinduced LMCT promotes the reverse thiophene elimination from <b>2</b>. Finally, pressurizing solutions of <b>2 </b>with H<sub>2</sub> (150 psi) at 80 °C leads to the hydrodesulfurization of thiophene to give the Ti(IV) sulfide (<sup>Ket</sup>guan)(Im<sup>Dipp</sup>N)Ti(S) (<b>3</b>) and butane. </p>
