by the Cu(II)CN species to give an alkyl–Cu(III)CN 93 intermediate, from which a stereoselective reductive elimination provided the product and regenerated the Cu(I) catalyst. Although this chemistry is only compatible with the functionalization of benzylic positions, the authors applied it to the preparation of a range of cyanated substrates, all synthesized in good yields and enantioselectivities. Next, they subjected a number of products to a two‐step reduction with i‐Bu₂AlH (to form a hemiaminal), followed by Et₃SiH to furnish the desired C‐3 arylated piperidine products.

2.5 Summary and Conclusions

Nitrogen radicals are powerful intermediates in synthetic chemistry. Their ability to undergo selective H‐atom transfer reactions represents a valuable tool for the assembly and functionalization of organic molecules. Although the large body of work and examples are already available, several challenges are still unsolved. For example, the ability to control in a general sense the stereochemical outcome of these transformations is currently not possible but would be highly desirable. Furthermore, these processes have rarely been used in large‐scale settings, especially at an industrial level, so further work would be required to identify reaction protocols that can be translated into process development. Finally, an area where continuous development and application is required involves the use of these strategies for the late‐stage modification of complex and bioactive materials. The ability to selectively target specific and unactivated sp³‐centers, where a functionality can be introduced, would represent a powerful tool in order to better explore chemical space around lead molecules.
