Urea-Catalyzed Functionalization of Unactivated C–H Bonds [PDF]
Herein we report the 3,5bistrifluoromethylphenyl urea-catalyzed functionalization of unactivated C–H bonds. In this system, the urea catalyst mediates the formation of high-energy vinyl carbocations that undergo facile C–H insertion and Friedel–Crafts ...

When metal-catalyzed C–H functionalization meets visible-light photocatalysis
While aiming at sustainable organic synthesis, over the last decade particular attention has been focused on two modern fields, C–H bond activation, and visible-light-induced photocatalysis.

Photoredox C–H functionalization leads the site-selective phenylalanine bioconjugation
Site-selectively chemical bioconjugation of peptides and proteins can improve the therapeutic exploration of modified protein drugs. Only 3.8% natural abundance of phenylalanine in protein and nearly 90% of proteins contain at least one phenylalanine ...

A general strategy for C(sp3)–H functionalization with nucleophiles using methyl radical as a hydrogen atom abstractor [PDF]
Photoredox catalysis has provided many approaches to C(sp3)-H functionalization that enable selective oxidation and C(sp3)-C bond formation via the intermediacy of a carbon-centered radical. While highly enabling, functionalization of the carbon-centered

Selective ring expansion and C−H functionalization of azulenes
We report a transition metal-catalyzed ring expansion of azulene that can be contrasted with C–H functionalization. This study represents the first example of the successful ring expansion of azulene using Cu(hfacac)2 (hfacac: hexafluoroacetylacetonate ...
