Abstract
This paper reports a direct α-(hetero)arylation of acrylamides through an inverse electron-demand nucleophilic addition, specifically an anti-Michael-type addition. The introduction of a quinolyl directing group facilitates the nucleophilic addition of (hetero)arenes to the α-position of acrylamides. The quinolyl directing group effectively suppresses undesired β-hydrogen elimination and is removable for subsequent derivatization. The presented method provides an atom economical synthesis of α-(hetero)arylamide with a high degree of functional group tolerance.

Abstract
Alkylation reactions are fundamental carbon-carbon bond-forming reactions in synthetic organic chemistry. Among them, intermolecular α-alkylation reactions of carbonyl compounds with alkenes are important because they are more atom-economical than the equivalent processes using alkyl halides. However, intermolecular reactions with nonactivated alkenes such as 1-hexene, which can allow the use of a wide range of valuable substrates, have been considered to be very challenging for a long time. In this review, radical-mediated intermolecular α-alkylation reactions of carbonyl compounds with nonactivated alkenes are discussed. The examples are grouped into three types of reactions: peroxide-mediated reactions, metal-oxidant-mediated reactions, and photoactivated reactions. Photoredox-catalyzed alkylation reactions under visible-light irradiation are discussed as a particularly promising recent hot topic. This review provides brief history and new prospects on the α-alkylation process with nonactivated alkenes using α-carbonyl radical species.

Abstract
Selective functionalization of innate sp2 C-H bonds under ambient conditions is a grand synthetic challenge in organic chemistry. Here we combine host-guest charge transfer-based photoredox chemistry with supramolecular nano-confinement to achieve selective carbonylation of styrene by tuning the dioxygen concentration. We observe exclusive photocatalytic formation of benzaldehyde under excess O2 (>1 atm) while Markovnikov addition of water produced acetophenone in deoxygenated condition upon photoexcitation of confined styrene molecules inside a water-soluble cationic nanocage. Further by careful tuning of the nanocage size, electronics, and guest preorganization, we demonstrate rate enhancement of benzaldehyde formation and a complete switchover to the anti-Markovnikov product, 2-phenylethan-1-ol, in the absence of O2. Raman spectroscopy, 2D 1H-1H NMR correlation experiments, and transient absorption spectroscopy establish that the site-selective control on the confined photoredox chemistry originates from an optimal preorganization of styrene molecules inside the cavity. We envision that the demonstrated host-guest charge transfer photoredox paradigm in combination with green atom-transfer reagents will enable a broad range of sp2 carbon-site functionalization.

Abstract
The reductive Heck hydroarylation of unactivated alkenes has emerged as an essential reaction for regioselective hydroarylation. Herein, we report a palladium-catalyzed reductive Heck hydroarylation of unactivated alkenes under mild conditions with enhanced functional group tolerance using hydrosilane as the reducing reagent. Under the optimal conditions, the alkylarene yields increased, resulting in minimal undesired products. Mechanistic studies using deuterated reagents indicated the involvement of two competing catalytic cycles.

Abstract
The precise control of the regioselectivity in the transition metal-catalyzed migratory hydrofunctionalization of alkenes remains a big challenge. With a transient ketimine directing group, the nickel-catalyzed migratory β-selective hydroarylation and hydroalkenylation of alkenyl ketones has been realized with aryl boronic acids using alkyl halide as the mild hydride source for the first time. The key to this success is the use of a diphosphine ligand, which is capable of the generation of a Ni(II)-H species in the presence of alkyl bromide, and enabling the efficient migratory insertion of alkene into Ni(II)-H species and the sequent rapid chain walking process. The present approach diminishes organosilanes reductant, tolerates a wide array of complex functionalities with excellent regioselective control. Moreover, this catalytic system could also be applied to the migratory hydroarylation of alkenyl azahetereoarenes, thus providing a general approach for the preparation of 1,2-aryl heteroaryl motifs with wide potential applications in pharmaceutical discovery.

Abstract
Catalytic carboamination of alkenes is a powerful synthetic tool to access valuable amine scaffolds from abundant and readily available alkenes. Although a number of synthetic approaches have been developed to achieve the rapid buildup of molecular complexity in this realm, the installation of diverse carbon and nitrogen functionalities onto unactivated alkenes remains underdeveloped. Here we present a ligand design approach to enable nickel-catalyzed three-component carboamidation that is applicable to a wide range of alkenyl amine derivatives via a tandem process involving alkyl migratory insertion and inner-sphere metal-nitrenoid transfer. With this method, various nitrogen functionalities can be installed into both internal and terminal unactivated alkenes, leading to differentially substituted diamines that would otherwise be difficult to access. Mechanistic investigations reveal that the tailored Ni(cod)(BQiPr) precatalyst modulates the electronic properties of the presumed π-alkene-nickel intermediate via the quinone ligand, leading to enhanced carbonickelation efficiency across the unactivated C═C bond. These findings establish nickel's ability to catalyze multicomponent carboamidation with a high efficiency and exquisite selectivity.

Abstract
In catalytic α-alkylation reactions of carbonyl compounds, although SN2-type substitution reactions of enolates with alkyl halides are a conventional methodology, addition reactions with alkenes are more desirable because of their atom-economical character; however, reactions with nonactivated alkenes are challenging. Here, we developed highly efficient catalytic α-alkylation reactions of active methylene and methine compounds with nonactivated alkenes such as 1-decene using an organophotocatalyst and lithium thiophenoxide as a Lewis acid/Brønsted base/hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) multifunctional catalyst under blue-light irradiation. The reaction was also performed with a higher degree of efficiency under a continuous-flow system to obtain the products in multigram scales. The present reaction system enables highly efficient and practical α-alkylation reactions of active methylene and methine compounds to be achieved.

Abstract
We describe a catalytic cascade sequence involving directed C(sp3 )-H activation followed by β-heteroatom elimination to generate a PdII (π-alkene) intermediate that then undergoes redox-neutral annulation with an ambiphilic aryl halide to access 5- and 6-membered (hetero)cycles. Various alkyl C(sp3 )-oxygen, nitrogen, and sulfur bonds can be selectively activated, and the annulation proceeds with high diastereoselectivity. The method enables modification of amino acids with good retention of enantiomeric excess, as well as σ-bond ring-opening/ring-closing transfiguration of low-strain heterocycles. Despite its mechanistic complexity, the method employs simple conditions and is operationally straightforward to perform.

Abstract
Multistep organic synthesis enables conversion of simple chemical feedstocks into a more structurally complex product that serves a particular function. The target compound is forged over several steps, with concomitant generation of byproducts in each step to account for underlying mechanistic features of the reactions (e.g., redox processes). To map structure-function relationships, libraries of molecules are often needed, and these are typically prepared by iterating an established multistep synthetic sequence. An underdeveloped approach is designing organic reactions that generate multiple valuable products with different carbogenic skeletons in a single synthetic operation. Taking inspiration from paired electrosynthesis processes that are widely used in commodity chemical production (e.g., conversion of glucose to sorbitol and gluconic acid), we report a palladium-catalyzed reaction that converts a single alkene starting material into two skeletally distinct products in a single operation through a series of carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom bond-forming events enabled by mutual oxidation and reduction, a process that we term redox-paired alkene difunctionalization. We demonstrate the scope of the method in enabling simultaneous access to reductively 1,2-diarylated and oxidatively [3 + 2]-annulated products, and we explore the mechanistic details of this unique catalytic system using a combination of experimental techniques and density functional theory (DFT). The results described herein establish a distinct approach to small-molecule library synthesis that can increase the rate of compound production. Furthermore, these findings demonstrate how a single transition-metal catalyst can mediate a sophisticated redox-paired process through multiple pathway-selective events along the catalytic cycle.

Abstract
Despite the notable advances achieved in the Murai-type hydroarylations, highly enantioselective catalytic addition of native (hetero)arenes to internal alkenes remains a prominent challenge. Herein, we report a directing group repositioning strategy, which enables the iridium-catalyzed enantioselective addition of heteroarenes including furan, benzofuran, and thiophene to internal enamides. The C-H bond at the C2 position of the heteroarene is site-selectively cleaved and added regioselectively to the β-position of an enamide, affording a valuable β-heteroaryl amide with high enantioselectivity. Mechanistic studies indicate that the rate and the enantioselectivity are determined by separate elementary steps.

Abstract
Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were performed to study the palladium/Brønsted acid-catalyzed methoxycarbonylation and hydromethoxylation reactions of internal alkene. The calculated results show that the pyridyl group (N atom) in bidentate phosphine ligand with built-in base (L1) plays a crucial role in controlling the selectivity. With the help of the pyridyl group, the methanolysis steps in the methoxycarbonylation reaction and the hydromethoxylation reaction become easy, and both the linear ester methyl 3,4-dimethylpentanoate (P1) and the hydromethoxylation product 2-methoxy-2,3-dimethylbutane (P2) could be obtained. In contrast, the possibility of leading to branched ester P1' was ruled out according to our calculations. The steric effect could account for the observed selectivity. In the presence of the DPEphos ligand (L2) that does not bear the pyridyl group, the methanolysis step in the methoxycarbonylation reaction becomes the rate-determining step with a high overall energy barrier. Neither linear nor branched methoxycarbonylation product could be generated. The palladium/Brønsted acid co-catalyzed hydromethoxylation also become difficult without the assistance of the pyridyl group in the presence of the L2 ligand. Instead, TsOH-catalyzed hydromethoxylation reaction could take place to generate the ether product P2.

Abstract
ConspectusAlkenes are versatile compounds that are readily available on a large scale from industry or through organic synthesis. The widespread occurrence of alkenes provides the continuous impetus for the development of catalytic asymmetric alkene hydrofunctionalizations, which enables expeditious construction of complex chiral molecules from readily available starting materials. Catalytic asymmetric hydrofunctionalization of internal alkenes presents a notable challenge, due to their low reactivity, many potential side reactions, and the simultaneous control of the regio-, diastereo-, and enantioselectivities.Dehydroamino acids and enamides are among the first substrates that provide notable enantioselectivities in catalytic asymmetric hydrogenation. The crucial importance of an amide coordinating group is established by a series of classical mechanistic studies. This initial success greatly stimulated further development for catalytic hydrogenation and hydrofunctionalization. Building on these pioneering works in asymmetric hydrogenation as well as related hydrofunctionalizations, we have adopted coordination assistance as a powerful tool to address the challenges associated with the asymmetric hydrofunctionalization of internal alkenes. Using a functional group on the alkene substrate as a native coordinating group, a two-point binding mode of the substrate to the metal center effectively enhances the reactivity and facilitates the control of regio-, diastereo- and enantioselectivities. Through this strategy, we have developed a number of alkene hydrofunctionalization methods with excellent regio-, diastereo-, and enantiocontrols.In this Account, we summarize the recent advance in our lab using coordination assistance as a key element to achieve regio- and enantioselective hydroalkynylation of internal alkenes. First, we describe our early work aimed at controlling the regio- and enantioselectivity of hydroalkynylation using disubstituted enamide as the substrate. Both α- and β-alkynylation were achieved by channeling the reaction pathway into a Chalk-Harrod or modified Chalk-Harrod mechanism. Next, we discuss the further development of catalysts to achieve regiodivergent and enantioselective hydroalkynylation of trisubstituted enamide to access vicinal stereocenters and quaternary carbon stereocenters. We also discuss the hydroalkynylation of α,β-unsaturated amides to achieve unconventional site-selectivity through a combination of alkene isomerization and regioselective hydroalkynylation. This provides the basis for the construction of a remote quaternary carbon stereocenter through catalytic hydroalkynylation of trisubstituted β,γ-unsaturated amides. We further show that this controlling principle is applicable to terminal alkene with a coordinating group as well. A ligand-controlled mechanism shift is discussed for the enantioselective alkynylation at the terminal and internal position of 1,1,-disubstituted alkenes. Finally, we briefly mention the application of coordination assistance to other hydrofunctionalizations such as hydroboration and hydrosilylation, where previously inaccessible reactivity and selectivity were achieved. Collectively, these catalytic methods demonstrate the power of coordination assistance for enantioselective hydrofunctionalizations. We anticipate that this strategy will create a platform to enable diverse enantioselective alkene transformations.

Abstract
We report the iridium-catalyzed branch-selective hydroalkylation of simple alkenes such as aliphatic alkenes and aromatic alkenes with malonic amides and malonic esters under neutral reaction conditions. A variety of aliphatic alkenes and aromatic alkenes bearing bromine, chlorine, ester, 2-thienylcarboxylate, silyl, and phthalimide groups were all found to be suitable for this hydroalkylation. The combination of this method with Krapcho dealkoxycarbonylation realized a one-pot synthesis of β-substituted amide and ester from β-amide ester and malonic ester. The hydroalkylated products derived from malonic amides are suitable for further transformation. The finely tuned reaction conditions realized the selective transformation of hydroalkylated products to 1,3-diamines or monoamides with the same reagent. Deuterium labeling experiments and measurement of the kinetic isotope effect indicated that the catalytic cycle involves a reversible step and cleavage of the C-H bond is not a rate-determining step. Density functional theory calculations provided insight into the reaction mechanism, where the carboiridation step is followed by C-H reductive elimination.

Abstract
The hydrocarbofunctionalization of allyl amines connected to the picolinamide directing group is developed under Pd(II) catalysis. The strategy is grounded on a nucleopalladation concept, and a wide range of indoles effectively participated to produce valuable tryptamine derivatives in high yields. Synthetic utilities were showcased through the substrate diversification bearing bioactive core, Pictet-Spengler cyclization, and β-carboline synthesis. A mechanistic study suggested an irreversible nucleopalladation step, while protodepalladation follows a reversible pathway.

Abstract
AbstractThe transition metal-catalyzed hydrofunctionalization of alkenes offers an efficient solution for the rapid construction of complex functional molecules, and significant progress has been made during last decades. However, the hydrofunctionalization of internal alkenes remains a significant challenge due to low reactivity and the difficulties of controlling the regioselectivity. Here, we report the hydroarylation and hydroalkenylation of internal alkenes lacking a directing group with aryl and alkenyl boronic acids in the presence of a nickel catalyst, featuring a broad substrate scope and wide functional group tolerance under redox-neutral conditions. The key to achieving this reaction is the identification of a bulky 1-adamantyl β-diketone ligand, which is capable of overcoming the low reactivity of internal 1,2-disubstituted alkenes. Preliminary mechanistic studies unveiled that this reaction undergoes an Ar-Ni(II)-H initiated hydroarylation process, which is generated by the oxidative addition of alcoholic solvent with Ni(0) species and sequential transmetalation. In addition, the oxidative addition of the alcoholic solvent proves to be the turnover-limiting step.

Abstract
A catalytic 1,2-oxyhalogenation method that converts non-conjugated internal alkynes into tetrasubstituted alkenes with high regio- and stereoselectivity is described. Mechanistically, the reaction involves a PdII /PdIV catalytic cycle that begins with a directed oxypalladation step. The origin of regioselectivity is the preference for formation of a six-membered palladacycle intermediate, which is facilitated by an N,N-bidentate 2-(pyridin-2-yl)isopropyl (PIP) amide directing group. Selectivity for C(alkenyl)-X versus -N (X=halide) reductive elimination from the PdIV center depends on the identity of the halide anion; bromide and iodide engage in C(alkenyl)-X formation, while intramolecular C(alkenyl)-N reductive elimination occurs with chloride to furnish a lactam product. DFT calculations shed light on the origins of this phenomenon.

Abstract
Transition metal catalysis has contributed immensely to C-C bond formation reactions over the last few decades, and alkylation is no exception. The superiority of such methodologies over traditional alkylation is evident from minimal reaction steps, shorter reaction times, and atom economy while also allowing control over regio- and stereo-selectivity. In particular, hydrocarbonation of alkenes has grabbed increased attention due its fundamental ability to effectively and selectively synthesise a wide range of industrially and pharmaceutically relevant moieties. This review attempts to provide a scientific viewpoint and a systematic analysis of the recent developments in transition-metal-catalyzed alkylation of various C-H bonds using simple and activated olefins. The key features and mechanistic studies involved in these transformations are described briefly.

Abstract
Herein we report the use of indoles, one of the most common nitrogen-containing heterocycles in FDA-approved drugs, as nucleophiles in the Pd-catalyzed aza-Wacker reaction. This N-functionalization of indoles is a Markovnikov selective olefin functionalization of simple alkenes using catalytic Pd(NPhth)2(PhCN)2 and O2 as the terminal oxidant in the presence of catalytic Bu4NBr. Various substituted indoles and alkenes are found to participate; 21 examples are presented with yields ranging from 41 to 97% isolated yield. Additionally, lactams and oxazolidinones are shown to participate under the reaction conditions. Mechanistic investigations suggest that the phthalimide ligand and Bu4NBr additive slow undesired side reactions: indole decomposition and olefin isomerization, respectively.

Abstract
A carboxylic acid-directed regioselective hydroarylation reaction of unactivated alkenes with aryl boronic acids was reported. This transformation was enabled by homogeneous manganese catalyst MnBr(CO)5 in the presence of KOH and H2O in the m-xylene reaction medium. Both internal and terminal alkenes worked well in this transformation, and a series of functional groups were tolerated. This reaction not only provided an expeditious method to prepare γ-aryl carboxylic acids from simple starting materials but also would inspire further studies in employing homogeneous manganese catalysis in organic synthesis.

Abstract
An Ir-catalyzed regioselective hydroamination of allyl amines using aryl amines and catalyst-controlled regiodivergent hydroamination of allylic and homoallylic amines with aniline nucleophiles are reported. The directed hydroamination reactions afford a variety of 1,2-, 1,3-, and 1,4-diamines in good to excellent yields and high regio- and chemoselectivities. Mechanistic investigations suggests that the reactions are proceeding through an oxidative addition into the ArHN-H bond and that the observed regioselectivity is due to the selective formation of a 5- or 6-membered metalacyclic intermediate, depending on the catalyst employed.

Abstract
Benzocyclobutenes (BCBs) are highly valuable compounds in organic synthesis, medicinal chemistry, and materials science. However, catalytic modular synthesis of functionalized BCBs from easily accessible starting materials remains limited. We report herein an efficient synthesis of diversely functionalized BCBs by a Pd(II)-catalyzed formal [2+2] annulation between arylboronic acids and alkenes in the presence of N-fluorobenzenesulfonimide (NFSI). An intermolecular carbopalladation followed by palladium oxidation, intramolecular C(sp2)-H activation by a transient C(sp3)-Pd(IV) species, and selective carbon-carbon (C-C) bond-forming reductive elimination from a high-valent five-membered palladacycle is proposed to account for the reaction outcome. Kinetically competent oxidation of alkylPd(II) to alkylPd(IV) species is important to avoid the formation of a Heck adduct. The reaction forges two C-C bonds of the cyclobutene core and is compatible with a wide range of functional groups. No chelating bidentate directing group in the alkene part is needed for this transformation.

In this study, we systematically evaluate different ambiphilic organohalides for their ability to participate in anti-selective carbo- or heteroannulation with non-conjugated alkenyl amides under PdII /PdIV catalysis. Detailed optimization of the reaction conditions has led to protocols for synthesizing tetrahydropyridines, tetralins, pyrrolidines, and other carbo/heterocyclic cores via [n+2] (n=3-5) (hetero)annulation. Expansion of scope to otherwise unreactive ambiphilic haloketones through PdII /amine co-catalysis is also demonstrated. Compared to other annulation processes, this method proceeds via a distinct PdII /PdIV mechanism involving Wacker-type directed nucleopalladation. This difference results in unique reactivity and selectivity patterns, as revealed through assessment of reaction scope and competition experiments.

Abstract
The synthesis of diverse products from the same starting materials is always attractive in organic chemistry. Here, a palladium-catalyzed substrate-controlled regioselective functionalization of unactivated alkenes with trifluoroacetimidoyl chlorides has been developed, which provides a direct but controllable access to a variety of structurally diverse trifluoromethyl-containing indoles and indolines. In more detail, with respect to γ,δ-alkenes, 1,1-geminal difunctionalization of unactivated alkenes with trifluoroacetimidoyl chloride enables the [4 + 1] annulation to produce indoles; as for β,γ-alkenes, a [3 + 2] heteroannulation with the hydrolysis product of trifluoroacetimidoyl chloride through 1,2-vicinal difunctionalization of alkenes occurs to deliver indoline products. The structure of alkene substrates differentiates the regioselectivity of the reaction. A palladium-catalyzed dual functionalization of unactivated alkenes with trifluoroacetimidoyl chlorides toward the synthesis of structurally diverse trifluoromethyl-containing indoles and indolines has been developed.![]()

Abstract
Numerous metal-catalyzed reactions involving internal alkynes and aimed towards synthetically and pharmacologically important alkenes and heterocycles have appeared in the literature. Among these, Cu-catalyzed reactions have a special place, which has prompted the investigation and development of carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom bond-forming reactions. These reactions possess wide scope, and during the paths of these reactions, either stable or in situ intermediates are formed via the addition of Cu as a core catalyst or synergistic catalyst. In this review, we aim to report different contributions relating to Cu-catalyzed reactions of internal alkynes for the synthesis of different valuable alkenes and heterocycles which have appeared in the literature in the last decade. We anticipate that this appraisal will deliver basic insights for the further advancement of Cu-catalyzed reactions in organic chemistry.

Abstract
We present highly diastereoselective tethered aza-Wacker cyclization reactions of alkenyl phosphoramidates. "Arming" the phosphoramidate tether with 5-chloro-8-quinolinol was essential to achieving >20:1 diastereoselectivity in these reactions. The substrate scope with respect to alkenyl alcohols and phosphoramidate tether was extensively explored. The scalability of the oxidative cyclization was demonstrated, and the product cyclophosphoramidates were shown to be valuable synthons, including for tether removal. With chiral alkenyl precursors, enantiopure cyclic phosphoramidates were formed.

Abstract
Remote functionalization of alkenes via chain walking has generally been limited to C(sp3)-H bonds α and β to polar-functional units, while γ-C(sp3)-H functionalization through controlled alkene transposition is a longstanding challenge. Herein, we describe NiH-catalyzed migratory formal hydroamination of alkenyl amides achieved via chelation-assisted control, whereby various amino groups are installed at the γ-position of aliphatic chains. By tuning olefin isomerization and migratory hydroamination through ligand and directing group optimization, γ-selective amination can be achieved via stabilization of a 6-membered nickellacycle by an 8-aminoquinoline directing group and subsequent interception by an aminating reagent. A range of amines can be installed at the γ-C(sp3)-H bond of unactivated alkenes with varying alkyl chain lengths, enabling late-stage access to value-added γ-aminated products. Moreover, by employing picolinamide-coupled alkene substrates, this approach is further extended to δ-selective amination. The chain-walking mechanism and pathway selectivity are investigated by experimental and computational methods.

Abstract
We report a direct and modular method to access non-conjugated alkenyl amides containing the 8-aminoquinoline (AQ) directing auxiliary and related groups via cross-metathesis. In this way, readily available, AQ-containing, terminal β,γ-unsaturated amides can be coupled with various terminal alkenes to furnish internal alkene products that are otherwise difficult to prepare. The value of this family of products stems from their ability to participate in a number of directed alkene functionalization reactions.

Abstract
Olefin double-bond functionalization has been established as an excellent strategy for the construction of elaborate molecules. In particular, the hydroalkylation of olefins represents a straightforward strategy for the synthesis of new C(sp3)–C(sp3) bonds, with concomitant formation of challenging quaternary carbon centers. In the last 20 years, numerous hydroalkylation methodologies have emerged that have explored the diverse reactivity patterns of the olefin double bond. This review presents examples of olefins acting as electrophilic partners when coordinated with electrophilic transition-metal complexes or, in more recent approaches, when used as precursors of nucleophilic radical species in metal hydride hydrogen atom transfer reactions. This unique reactivity, combined with the wide availability of olefins as starting materials and the success reported in the construction of all-carbon C(sp3) quaternary centers, makes hydroalkylation reactions an ideal platform for the synthesis of molecules with increased molecular complexity.

Abstract
The stereoselective construction of all-carbon quaternary stereocenters, especially acyclic ones, represents an important challenge in organic synthesis. In particular, homopropargyl amides with a quaternary stereocenter β to a nitrogen atom are valuable synthetic intermediates, which could be transformed to diverse chiral structures through alkyne transformations. However, highly enantioselective synthetic methods for homopropargyl amides with a β quaternary stereocenter are extremely rare. We report here unprecedented substrate-directed, iridium-catalyzed enantioselective hydroalkynylations of trisubstituted alkenes to form an acyclic all-carbon quaternary stereocenter β to a nitrogen atom. The hydroalkynylation of enamide occurred with unconventional selectivity, favoring the more hindered reaction site. Homopropargyl amides with β-stereocenters were prepared in high regio- and enantioselectivities. Combined experimental and computational studies revealed the origin of the regio- and enantioselectivities.

Abstract
Chelation-assisted C-H bond and alkene functionalization using bidentate directing groups offers an elegant and versatile approach to overcome regiocontrol issues by allowing the catalyst to come into close proximity with the targeted sites. In this personal account, we highlight our recent works in developing regio- and stereocontrolled functionalizations through transition-metal catalysis enabled by bidentate directing groups. We classify our results into two categories: (1) regioselective alkene functionalization using bidentate directing groups, and (2) asymmetric C-H functionalization using chiral bidentate directing groups. Furthermore, density functional theory studies to elucidate the origin of the regio- and stereoselectivity exerted by bidentate directing groups are discussed.

Abstract
Two similar tridentate directing groups derived from glycine and 8-aminoquinoline were shown to enable the palladium-catalyzed anti-Markovnikov hydrofunctionalization of 4-pentenylamine with drastically different efficiencies. A computational investigation into the origin of the reactivity difference between these isomeric, carbonyl-transposed auxiliaries suggests that protonation state, thus charge of the substrate-metal complex prior to nucleopalladation is key. These investigations have culminated in a directing group design that can undergo Pd-catalyzed hydrofunctionalization under relatively mild conditions, as low as room temperature.

Abstract
Asymmetric multicomponent reactions allow stitching several functional groups in an enantioselective and atom economical manner. The introduction of boron-based reagents as a multicomponent coupling partner has its own merits. In addition to being non-toxic and highly stable, organoboron compounds can be easily converted to other functional groups in a stereoselective manner. In the last decade several transition metal catalyzed asymmetric multicomponent strategies have been evolved using boron based reagents. This review will discuss the merits and scope of multicomponent strategies based on their difference in the reaction mechanism and transition metals involved.
