Catalytic hydroamination of the readily available alkenes is among the most straightforward means to construct diverse alkyl amines. To this end, the facile access to both regioselectivity, i.e., Markovnikov or anti-Markovnikov hydroamination, with minimum reaction-parameter alternation, remains challenging. Herein, we report a cobalt-catalyzed highly selective and divergent Markovnikov and anti-Markovnikov

Primary target: A practical and effective copper‐catalyzed amination strategy for synthesizing various benzylic amines from benzylic hydrocarbons is described (see scheme; DCE=1,2‐dichloroethane). Xylene substrates can undergo diamination reactions using this method. The remarkable preference for primary over secondary benzylic CHbonds has been observed for the first time.
N-fluorobenzenesulfonimide (NFSI) and its analogues as both nitrogen source and oxidant was successfully disclosed. A variety of alkenes, including aliphatic alkenes, styrenes, α, β-unsaturated esters, amides, acids, as well as enones, were all compatible to provide desired amination products. Mechanistic experiments suggest that the reaction underwent a metal-hydride-mediated hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) with alkene
molecules. Because arylacetic acids are regarded as key structures in bioactive compounds, new transformations of these structures could contribute to drug/agrochemical discovery and chemical biology. This work reports carbon–nitrogen and carbon–oxygen bond formation through the photoredox‐catalyzed decarboxylation of arylacetic acids. The reaction shows good functional group compatibility without pre‐activation
