Article Abstract
Radical cascade cyclization of alkenes involving the insertion of sulfur dioxide has proven to be a promising tool to access sulfonylnated heterocycle compounds, whereas cyclization of unactivated alkenes has been much less explored. Here, we developed a three-component cascade of unactive alkenes with sulfur dioxide and aryldiazonium tetrafluoroborates to generate sulfonylated tetrahydropyridines and azepines via the cleavage of alkenyl C-H bonds. Moreover, this protocol exhibited excellent chemical and regioselectivity and compatibility with broad functional groups.

Radical-mediated hydroalkylation of alkenes offers a more direct and atom-economical route to α-alkylated carbonyl compounds, enabling the construction of various drug scaffolds, natural products, and functional molecules. However, traditional protocols are generally restricted to active 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds and often require oxidants, large excesses of substrates, and harsh reaction conditions. Herein, we present a photoinduced, general, and practical hydroalkylation of unactivated alkenes with amides.

-vinyl azoles are prevalent moieties in pharmaceuticals, and fluorovinyl groups are widely recognized as carbonyl bioisosteres in drug design. Thus, -fluorovinylated heteroarenes represent highly desirable functional groups in medicinal chemistry. To streamline the development of novel -fluorovinylation and -pentafluoropropenylation reactions, herein we safely handle fluorinated gases, such as vinylidene fluoride (VDF) and hexafluoropropene (HFP), as solid reagents using a metal-organic framework (MOF), Mg(dobdc) (dobdc = 2,5-dioxidobenzene-1,4-dicarboxylate).

An organophotoredox-catalyzed -Markovnikov addition of the carbamoyl radical generated through the homolytic cleavage of 4-carbamoyl-1,4-dihydropyridine to the challenging unactivated alkene has been developed. Interestingly, the amino acid-derived carbamoyl precursor provided a unique opportunity for -terminus modification of amino acids and peptides. This mild and simple method is suitable for the seamless synthesis and late-stage modification of complex drug molecules and cascade cyclization via radical relay.

A nickel-catalyzed intermolecular hydroamidation of alkenes with dioxazolones has been developed, enabling the efficient synthesis of valuable β- and γ-amino acid derivatives. The presence of a directing group is pivotal to the reaction's success. This methodology is characterized by mild reaction conditions, high regioselectivity, with excellent functional group tolerance, and the elimination of additional ligand requirements.
