The present review is devoted to summarizing the recent advances (2015–2017) in the field
of metal-catalysed group-directed C–H functionalisation. In order to clearly showcase the …

Ru-Catalyzed aromatic C–H bond activation and functionalization have emerged as
important topics because they have resulted in remarkable progress in organic synthesis …

Functionalized biaryl-containing motifs are among the most valuable synthetic scaffolds in
organic chemistry with wide ranging commercial applications in pharmaceuticals, functional …

A novel synthesis of 3-nitrosoindoles starting from easily available N-nitrosoanilines and
sulfoxonium ylides via Rh (III)-catalyzed acylmethylation and trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) …

Ru (II) complexes of amide-phosphine-based tridentate ligands additionally containing
pyridine, isoquinoline, and quinoline rings have been synthesized, and their catalytic utility …

C− H hydroxylation of aryl acetamides and alkyl phenylacetyl esters was accomplished via
challenging distal weak O‐coordination by versatile ruthenium (II/IV) catalysis. The …

Two sets of Ru (II) complexes,[Ru–Cl](1–3) and [Ru–H](4–6), supported with coumarin-
amide-based ligands have been synthesized and characterized. In these complexes, the …

Reactions of N-(benzo [d] thiazol-2-yl) pyrazine-2-carboxamide (HL1) and N-(1H-benzo [d]
imidazol-2-yl) pyrazine-2-carboxamide (HL2) ligands with Ru (PPh3) 3ClH (CO) and Ru …

We report here the ruthenium-catalyzed selective monoarylation of aromatic ketones
bearing two ortho carbon–heteroatom (O or N) bonds. Under the newly developed catalyst …

A series of ruthenium (II) complexes (1–6) of pyridine-carboxamide ligands, HL BT/BI (HL
BT= N-(benzo [d] thiazol-2-yl) picolinamide and HL BI= N-(1H-benzo [d] imidazol-2-yl) …
