RESUMEN
In recent years, transition-metal-catalyzed C-H functionalization has gradually developed into a powerful tool for the synthesis of ferrocenes in an atom- and step-economic fashion. However, despite significant achievements, the vast majority of these C-H functionalizations required precious 4d or 5d transition metal catalysts. The use of inexpensive and sustainable 3d metals in the C-H functionalization of ferrocenes remains challenging, especially the development of asymmetric versions. Herein, we summarize the remarkable recent progress in the synthesis of ferrocenes by 3d transition metal-catalyzed C-H activation until December 2021.

Enantioselective hydroarylation of unactivated terminal akenes constitutes a prominent challenge in organic chemistry. Herein, we reported a Cp*Co(III)-catalyzed asymmetric hydroarylation of unactivated aliphatic terminal alkenes assisted by a new type of tailor-made amino acid ligands. Critical to the chiral induction was the engaging of a novel noncovalent interaction (NCI), which has seldomly been disclosed in the C-H activation area, arising from the molecular recognition among the organocobalt(III) intermediate, the coordinated alkene, and the well-designed chiral ligand. A broad range of C2-alkylated indoles were obtained in high yields and excellent enantioselectivities. DFT calculations revealed the reaction mechanism and elucidated the origins of chiral induction in the stereodetermining alkene insertion step.
RESUMEN
Dibenzocyclooctadiene lignans are an interesting class of molecules because of their unique structure based on an axially chiral biaryl moiety as well as their significant biological activity. Herein, we describe the development of a palladium-catalyzed atroposelective C-H alkynylation and its application in gram-scale, stereocontrolled formal syntheses of (+)-isoschizandrin and (+)-steganone. tert-Leucine was identified as an efficient, catalytic transient chiral auxiliary. A wide range of enantiomerically enriched biaryl compounds were prepared by this approach in good yields (up to 99 %) with excellent enantioselectivity (up to >99 %â ee).
RESUMEN
A cobalt-catalyzed dual C(sp3 )-H activation strategy has been developed and it provides a novel strategy for the synthesis of bicyclo[4.1.0]heptanes and bicyclo[3.1.0]hexanes. A key to the success of this reaction is the conformation-induced methylene C(sp3 )-H activation of the resulting cobaltabicyclo[4.n.1] intermediate. In addition, the synthesis of bicyclo[3.1.0]hexane from pivalamide, by a triple C(sp3 )-H activation, has also been demonstrated.
RESUMEN
Most chelation-assisted aliphatic C-H activation proceeds through a kinetically favored five-membered cyclometalated intermediate. Here, we report the first site-selective alkenylation of δ-C(sp(3))-H in the presence of more accessible γ-C(sp(3))-H bonds via a kinetically less favored six-membered palladacycle. A wide range of functional groups are tolerated, and the unique protocol can be applied to the synthesis of chiral piperidines. Moreover, mechanistic insights have been conducted to elucidate the origin of the unusual site-selectivity.
RESUMEN
A general and practical PdII -catalyzed intermolecular silylation of primary and secondary C-H bonds of α-amino acids and simple aliphatic acids is reported. This method provides divergent and stereoselective access to a variety of optical pure ß-silyl-α-amino acids, which are useful for genetic technologies and proteomics. It can also be readily performed on a gram scale and the auxiliary can be easily removed with retention of configuration. The synthetic importance of this method is further demonstrated by the late-stage functionalization of biological small molecules, such as (-)-santonin and ß-cholic acid. Moreover, several key palladacycles were successfully isolated and characterized to elucidate the mechanism of this ß-C(sp3 )-H silylation process.

Conjugation of carbohydrates to ferrocene scaffolds is of great value in drug design, given the nontoxic and lipophilic nature of ferrocene. However, the efficient and stereoselective synthesis of C-ferrocenyl glycosides remains a challenge. Herein, we developed a Pd-catalyzed stereoselective C-H glycosylation to provide rapid access to sole bis-C-ferrocenyl glycosides in good to high yields (up to 98% yield) with exclusive stereoselectivity. A diverse range of glycosyl chlorides were well tolerated, including d-mannose, d-glucose, l-xylose, l-rhamnose, d-mannofuranose, and d-ribofuranose. Additionally, a mononuclear PdII intermediate was characterized by X-ray single-crystal diffraction, and might participate in the C-H palladation step.

Herein, the first Cp*Co(III)-catalyzed C-H allylation of ferrocene thioamides with allyl carbonates has been developed. This reaction is compatible with a wide range of functional groups, providing various allylated ferrocene derivatives in up to 90% yields. In addition, the C-H allylation protocol is also compatible with the use of vinylcyclopropanes as allylating reagents by merging C-H and C-C activation into one catalytic system. Mechanistic studies revealed that the thiocarbonyl-directing group plays a vital role in C-H activation.
RESUMEN
Cp*Cobalt(III)-catalyzed enantioselective C-H amidation of ferrocenes using monoprotected amino acids (MPAAs) as chiral ligands was developed. The reaction was performed under mild conditions in high yields (up to 97%) with moderate enantioselectivity (up to 77.5:22.5 er), providing a promising strategy to create planar chirality via base-metal-catalyzed enantioselective C-H activation.
RESUMEN
A highly selective nickel-catalyzed C-H trifluoroethylation of heteroarenes was developed with the assistance of a monodentate directing group. This protocol provides efficient access to various trifluoroethyl-substituted heteroarenes, including indoles, pyrroles, furans, and thiophenes, with commercially available CF3CH2I as an alkylation reagent. This robust catalytic procedure is scalable and tolerates a broad range of functional groups. Moreover, multifluoroalkylation of indoles is also viable.
RESUMEN
A mild Co(III)-catalyzed oxidative annulation of N-arylureas and internal alkynes has been developed. The use of less electrophilic ureas other than acetamides as directing groups is crucial for the reaction. A broad range of synthetically useful functional groups are compatible with this reaction, thus providing a new opportunity for the synthesis of diverse indoles.
RESUMEN
A cobalt(III)-catalyzed C-2 selective C-H alkynylation of indoles using hypervalent iodine-alkyne reagents is described.

The pyrimidyl and silyl protecting groups could be easily removed to give the corresponding 2-ethynyl-1H-indole.

The first nickel-catalyzed alkenylation of unactivated C(sp(3))-H bonds with vinyl iodides is described. The catalytic system comprises an inexpensive and air-stable Ni(acac)2 as the catalyst and BINOL as the ligand, which is highly efficient for the alkenylation of ß-methyl C(sp(3))-H bonds of a broad range of aliphatic carboxamides. The resulting olefins can serve as versatile handles for further preparation. Additionally, we also demonstrated the synthesis of functionalized carboxamides bearing α-quaternary carbon centers from simple pivalamide via nickel-catalyzed sequential C(sp(3))-H bond functionalization.
