Article Abstract
This article describes a detailed investigation of the palladium-catalyzed coupling of aryl (pseudo)halides (ArX) with MSCF to form aryl trifluoromethylthioethers (ArSCF). Mechanistic organometallic studies are used to interrogate two key elementary steps of the catalytic cycle: (1) transmetalation of Pd(Ar)(X) complexes with MSCF and (2) Ar-SCF bond-forming reductive elimination. These studies reveal that tetramethylammonium trifluoromethylthiolate, NMeSCF, exhibits a combination of fast kinetics and high chemoselectivity for transmetalation. Furthermore, Ar-SCF reductive elimination is fastest and highest yielding with 4,5-bis(diphenylphosphino)-9,9-dimethylxanthene (XantPhos), di-butylphosphinoferrocene (D BuPF), and tri--butylphosphine (P Bu) as ligands. These results are leveraged to develop a palladium-catalyzed method for coupling aryl iodides, -bromides, and -triflates with NMeSCF using catalytic Pd(dba) and D BuPF. This transformation exhibits a broad substrate scope and offers several advantages over state-of-the-art Pd-catalyzed methods for aryl-SCF coupling.

Over the past few years, alkali and alkaline earth metals have emerged as alternative catalysts to transition metal organometallics to catalyze the hydroboration of unsaturated compounds. A highly selective and cost-effective lithium-catalyzed method for the synthesis of an organoborane has been established based on the addition of a B-H bond to an unsaturated bond (polarized or unpolarized) using pinacolborane (HBPin). In the present work, the neosilyllithium-catalyzed hydroboration of nitriles, aldehydes, and esters has been investigated using high-level DLPNO-CCSD(T) calculations to unravel the mechanistic pathways and substrate-dependent reactivity.

The enantioselective construction of quaternary carbon stereocenters bearing amine functionalities represents a significant challenge in organic synthesis despite their prevalence in pharmaceutically active compounds. Herein, we report a versatile metallaphotoredox platform for the asymmetric incorporation of amine fragments onto quaternary carbons via coupling of alkene-tethered aryl bromides with readily available α-silylamines. This transformation proceeds under mild conditions without requiring organometallic reagents or stoichiometric reductants.

In this work, we report the design, synthesis, and application of a hyper-crosslinked heterogeneous organometallic porous organic polymer (Pd@TP-DPPF) catalyst for the efficient and sustainable dicarbofunctionalization of internal alkynes via a facile three-component reaction. This strategy enables the highly trans-selective syntheses of tetrasubstituted olefins in excellent yields. The catalyst is constructed by integrating triptycene (TP) and 1,1'-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene (DPPF) into a robust palladium-based porous framework, resulting in a unique heterogeneous system that efficiently mediates the coupling of internal alkynes with readily available iodoarenes and aryl/methyl boronic acids.

The detrimental effects of Fe-ion crosstalk on LiFePO||Graphite battery performance, coupled with limited mechanistic insights into solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) evolution under such interference, warrant systematic investigation. Herein, advanced characterization techniques-including X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry, and cryogenic transmission electron microscopy-are employed to reveal SEI evolution on graphite anodes under Fe/Fe influence. Results demonstrate that Fe exerts more severe adverse effects than Fe.
