Here, we describe the development of a Rh-catalyzed intramolecular one-carbon homologation of unstrained aryl ketones through a formal 1,1-insertion process of olefins, enabled by temporary directing group (TDG)-aided C-C activation. The reaction provides a distinct approach to access various substituted 1-indanones. Computational mechanistic studies reveal that the formal 1,1-insertion is realized by a selective C(sp2)-C(sp3) activation and turnover limiting 2,1-insertion into the alkene, followed by a facile β-H elimination and reinsertion process.

A novel palladium-catalyzed decarboxylative cascade cyclization for the assembly of diverse fused heteropolycycles by employing α-oxocarboxylic acids as three-carbon insertion units is reported. This protocol enables the synthesis of isoquinolinedione- and indolo[2,1-a]isoquinolinone-fused benzocycloheptanones in moderate to good yields by the use of different aryl iodides, including alkene-tethered 2-iodobenzamides and 2-(2-iodophenyl)-1H-indoles. Notably, the approach achieves simultaneous construction of both six- and seven-membered rings via sequential intramolecular carbopalladation, C-H activation, and decarboxylation.
Divergent Access to Benzocycles through Copper-Catalyzed Borylative Cyclizations

A copper-catalyzed chemodivergent approach to five- and six-membered benzocycles from dienyl arenes tethered with a ketone has been developed. Through proper choice of coordinating ligands and catalytic conditions, copper-catalyzed borylative cyclization of a single dienyl arene can be diverted to two different pathways, leading to indanols and dihydronaphthalenols with high stereoselectivity. The chiral bidentate bisphosphine ligand (S,S)-Ph-BPE was optimal for asymmetric copper-allyl addition to a tethered ketone via a boat-like transition state, whereas NHC ligands led to boro-allyl addition producing indanols with high diastereoselectivity.
