	abstract = {A catalytic method for functional group interconversion is immensely important in modern sciences. Here, we report an efficient catalytic conversion of nitroalkenes to highly stereoselective 1-trifluoromethylalkenes at room temperature. This unprecedented metal-free photocatalytic strategy is simple and operates under visible-light irradiation using the commercially available CF3 source.},

	abstract = {<p>Herein we report an efficient manganese-catalyzed C-alkylation of unactivated amides and tert-butyl acetate using alcohols as alkylating agents. This elegant approach exhibits a broad substrate scope providing the C-C coupled products of amides via a hydrogen auto-transfer strategy using aryl, heteroaryl, and aliphatic alcohols.</p>
