Transition metal catalyzed decarbonylation offers a distinct synthetic strategy for new chemical bond formation. However, the π‐backbonding between CO π* orbitals and metal center d‐orbitals impedes ligand dissociation to regenerate the catalyst under mild reaction conditions.

allowed the selective synthesis of double-insertion aromatic homologation or alkyne monoannulation products by C–F/C–H activation. On the basis of the unambiguous crystallographic characterization of an unprecedented nine-membered nickelacyclic intermediate and extensive DFT studies, a plausible mechanistic rationale was established for the selective C–F activation and the chemodivergent catalysis.

Ruthenium-catalyzed oxidative annulation of N-quinolin-8-yl-benzamides with alkynes in open air has been achieved using 8-aminoquinolinyl moiety as a bidentate directing group in the presence of Cu(OAc)(2)center dot H2O as an oxidant. This reaction offers a broad substrate scope, and both symmetrical and unsymmetrical alkynes can be applied. High regioselectivity was achieved in the case of unsymmetrical (aryl)alkynes. Reaction with heteroaryl amides was also successful in this catalytic process. A ruthenium-N-quinolin-8-yl-benzamide complex was isolated in the absence of alkyne; in the absence of both N-quinolin-8-yl-benzamide and alkyne, in contrast to literature, only the monoacetate complex RuCl(OAc)(p-cymene), but not the bis-acetate complex Ru(OAc)2(p-cymene), was isolated. These data suggest that this reaction may proceed via N,N-bidentate chelate complex. Key products were characterized by X-ray crystallography.
