In the present review, we discuss recent progress in the field of C–Z bond formation
reactions (Z= S, Se, Te) catalyzed by transition metals. Two complementary methodologies …

The amide bond represents the most fundamental functional group in numerous areas of
chemistry, such as organic synthesis, drug discovery, polymers, and biochemistry. Although …

Carbon–sulfur bond cross-coupling has become more and more attractive as an alternative
protocol to establish carbon–carbon and carbon–heteroatom bonds. Diverse …

It is textbook knowledge that carboxamides benefit from increased stabilisation of the
electrophilic carbonyl carbon when compared to other carbonyl and carboxyl derivatives …

Transition-metal-catalyzed decarbonylation via carbon–carbon bond cleavage is an
essential synthetic methodology. Given the ubiquity of carbonyl compounds, the selective …

In recent years, significant conceptual advances have taken place in the field of amide bond
cross-coupling. Mild and selective functionalization of amides by transition-metal catalysis …

Conspectus The utilization of carboxylic acid esters as electrophiles in metal-catalyzed cross-
coupling reactions is increasingly popular, as environmentally friendly and readily available …

Cross-coupling reactions are among the most powerful C–C and C–X bond forming tools in
organic chemistry. Traditionally, cross-coupling methods rely on the use of aryl halides or …

The amide functional group is commonly found in peptides, proteins, pharmaceutical
compounds, natural products, and polymers. The synthesis of amides is typically performed …

A Ni-catalyzed aryl sulfide synthesis through an aryl exchange reaction between aryl
sulfides and a variety of aryl electrophiles was developed. By using 2-pyridyl sulfide as a …
