3-Alkylated coumarins have many applications in medicinal chemistry, however, methods access to such structures are still limited. Herein, we report a site-selective photocatalytic deaminative alkylation of coumarins utilizing pyridinium-activated aliphatic primary amines as alkylation reagents. The protocol was highlighted by its mild reaction conditions, operational simplicity, and broad functional group compatibility. Moreover, this strategy enables late-stage modification of some pharmaceuticals and natural products, thus providing an appealing approach to valuable molecules in medicinal chemistry.

Catalyst controlled site-selective C-H functionalization is a challenging but powerful tool in organic synthesis. Polarity-matched and sterically controlled hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) provides an excellent opportunity for site-selective functionalization. As such, the dual Ni/photoredox system was successfully employed to generate acyl radicals from aldehydes via selective formyl C-H activation and subsequently cross-coupled to generate ketones, a ubiquitous structural motif present in the vast majority of natural and bioactive molecules. However, only a handful of examples that are constrained to the use of aryl halides are developed. Given the wide availability of amines, we developed a cross-coupling reaction via C-N bond cleavage using the economic nickel and TBADT catalyst for the first time. A range of alkyl and aryl aldehydes were cross-coupled with benzylic and allylic pyridinium salts to afford ketones with a broad spectrum of functional group tolerance. High regioselectivity toward formyl C-H bonds even in the presence of α-methylene carbonyl or α-amino/oxy methylene was obtained.

We have developed a deaminative–decarboxylative protocol to form new carbon(sp3)–carbon(sp3) bonds from activated amines and carboxylic acids. Amines and carboxylic acids are ubiquitous building blocks, available in broad chemical diversity and at lower cost than typical C?C coupling partners. To leverage amines and acids for C?C coupling, we developed a reductive nickel-catalyzed cross-coupling utilizing building block activation as pyridinium salts and redox-active esters, respectively. Miniaturized high-throughput experimentation studies were critical to our reaction optimization, with subtle experimental changes such as order of reagent addition, composition of a binary solvent system, and ligand identity having a significant impact on reaction performance. The developed protocol is used in the late-stage diversification of pharmaceuticals while more than one thousand systematically captured and machine-readable reaction datapoints are reposited.
