As a result, we devised cobaltaelectro-catalyzed C-H activation with chemo-, regio-and enantioselectivities to assemble C-stereogenic, atropisomeric and P-stereogenic compoundskey structural motifs in drugs and crop protection agents (Fig. ). Salient features of our findings include electricity in a dual role as sacrificial oxidant and for proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) with molecular hydrogen as the only stoichiometric byproduct through 3d transition metal catalysis that benefits from readily available ligands. At the outset of our studies, we evaluated Co(OAc)2•4H2O as the catalyst and (S)-BINOL phosphoric acid CPA1 for the C-H activation of benzamide 1 with alkene 2 (Fig. ). To our delight, the desired product 3 was formed under potentiostatic reaction control, albeit only in a moderate yield of 19%, yet encouraging enantiomeric ratio (e.r.) of 88.0:12.0 (entry 1). At this stage, passivation of the platinum electrode was observed, indicating the need for cathodic overpotential control. Hence, we next probed various additives (Table ) to observe that pivalic acid led to a dramatic increase in the yield, without compromising the enantioselectivity (entry 2).
