By developinggem‑difluoromethylene allenes as viable partners, regiocontrolled Rh(III)-catalyzed redox-neutral Csingle bondC coupling/Csingle bondN cyclization has been realized to build the pyridin-2(1H)-one motifs with the embedment of aZ-configured monofluoroalkene functionality, in which either (hetero)aromatic or vinylic amides were found to be compatible. Integrated experimental and computational mechanistic studies revealed that a tandem regioselective allene 1,2-insertion/β-H elimination/hydrogen transfer/oxidative addition/cyclization/cis-β-F elimination involving an unconventional Rh(III)-Rh(I)-Rh(III) catalytic cycle accounts for the established transformation. Through further FMO analysis and IGMH maps, a non-covalent weak interaction network between thegem‑difluoromethylene part and the OPiv moiety was rationally defined for the unconventional and specific regioselectivity control.
