  • Partial reduction through dearomative sequences has the potential to provide rapid access to complex and higher-value three-dimensional scaffolds from aromatic compounds. Here, the authors report a photocatalytic radical cascade approach, which exploits dearomative difunctionalization through selective dearomative spirocyclization/imination of nonactivated arenes.

  • A ternary catalytic method combining organic photoredox, hydrogen atom transfer and nickel catalysis is reported. This combination can directly arylate the allylic C(sp3)–H bonds of a broad range of readily available olefins. Mechanistic experiments, coupled with density functional theory calculations aid the elucidation of the ternary catalytic cycle and the origin of regioselectivity.

  • The combination of nickel-catalysis and sensitized electron transfer is underdeveloped. Now, a nickel-catalysed sensitized electron transfer method for the synthesis of methyl thioesters from carboxylic acids is reported. Mechanistic investigations reveal that the merger of photocatalytic electron transfer, energy transfer and nickel catalysis plays an essential role in this thioesterification reaction.

  • Highly diastereoselective Negishi cross-coupling reactions between 2-, 3- and 4-substituted cycloalkylzinc reagents and aryl iodides are described. In all cases, the thermodynamically most stable diastereomers of the cross-coupling products were obtained. NMR spectroscopy and density functional theory calculations were performed in order to rationalize the observed stereoselectivities.

  • Developments in synthetic chemistry are increasingly driven by attempts to improve both selectivity and sustainability. This Review highlights the versatility of bifunctional reagents in generating chemical complexity with enhanced atom-economy-leveraging radical reactions, C–H functionalizations, cross-couplings, organocatalysed processes and cyclizations.
