Herein, we report a protocol for direct visible-light-mediated Minisci C-H alkylation reactions of N-heteroarenes with 4-alkyl-1,4-dihydropyridines at room temperature with molecular oxygen as an oxidant. The protocol permits efficient functionalization of various N-heteroarenes with a broad range of cyclic and acyclic primary, secondary, and tertiary alkyl groups and is scalable to the gram level. This mild protocol uses an inexpensive, green oxidant and is suitable for late-stage C-H alkylation of complex nitrogen-containing molecules. We demonstrated its utility by preparing or functionalizing several pharmaceuticals and natural products.

The functionalization of aliphatic C-H bonds is both a major challenge and a desirable goal in organic synthesis. Here, we describe the successful arylation of unactivated alkanes with heteroarenes by using iridium polypyridyl complexes as the photocatalyst and persulfate as the HAT catalyst precursor under visible-light irradiation. This reaction features good functional group tolerance and broad scope with regard to both alkane and heteroarene substrates (37 examples), which allows direct access to alkyl-substituted N-heteroarenes, a key structural motif in natural products and bioactive molecules.
Radical Benzylation of Quinones via C-H Abstraction

Herein we report the development of radical benzylation reactions of quinones using Selectfluor and catalytic Ag(I) initiators. The reaction is believed to proceed via a C-H abstraction mechanism after Ag(I)-mediated reduction of Selectfluor. This reaction occurs under mild conditions and is effective for a variety of quinones and radical precursors bearing primary benzylic carbons. The use of preformed Ag(4-OMePy)2NO3 as a catalyst proved effective in improving the reaction efficiency by reducing unwanted degradation pathways available to Selectfluor.
