Abstract:
The selective functionalization of C-H bonds in arenes remains a challenging task in organic synthesis. While directing group (DG)-assisted strategies for proximal C-H activation are well-established, distal meta and para-C-H functionalization has proven more elusive and has attracted significant interest. Palladium-catalyzed C-H activation, in particular, has emerged as a promising approach for achieving site-selectivity in these transformations. This review provides a comprehensive overview of recent advances in palladium-catalyzed distal C-H functionalization, delving into mechanistic details and the scope of these strategies. By summarizing the successes and challenges in this field, we aim to illuminate potential avenues for future research and development in synthetic methodology.

The hydrohalogenation of an unsymmetrical alkene can yield two haloalkane products, depending on which vinylic carbon takes up the halogen. However, one product usually predominates, where hydrogen adds to the vinylic carbon bearing the...

02:36Regioselectivity and Stereochemistry of Hydroboration
Hydroboration proceeds in a concerted fashion with the attack of borane on the π bond, giving a cyclic four-centered transition state. The –BH2 group is bonded to the less substituted carbon and –H to the more substituted carbon. The concerted nature requires the simultaneous addition of –H and –BH2 across the same face of the alkene giving syn...

Selection Rules: Thermal Activation
Conjugated systems containing an even number of π-electron pairs undergo a conrotatory ring closure. For example, thermal electrocyclization of (2E,4E)-2,4-hexadiene, a conjugated diene containing two π-electron pairs, gives trans-3,4-dimethylcyclobutene.
