This Review describes the development of strategies for carbonyl–olefin metathesis
reactions relying on stepwise, stoichiometric, or catalytic approaches. A comprehensive …

Covering: 2015 to 2020 Nitrogen heterocyclic natural products (NHNPs) are primary or
secondary metabolites containing nitrogen heterocyclic (N-heterocyclic) skeletons. Due to …

The olefin metathesis reaction of two unsaturated substrates is one of the most powerful
carbon–carbon-bond-forming reactions in organic chemistry. Specifically, the catalytic olefin …

Scaffold diversity is a crucial feature of compound collections that has a huge impact on their
success in biological screenings. The synthesis of highly complex and diverse scaffolds …

The olefin–olefin metathesis reaction has emerged as one of the most important carbon–
carbon bond-forming reactions, as illustrated by its wide use in the synthesis of complex …

Carbonyl–olefin metathesis represents a powerful yet underdeveloped method for the
formation of carbon–carbon bonds. So far, no Brønsted acid based method for the catalytic …

Iron (III)-catalyzed carbonyl-olefin ring-closing metathesis represents a new approach
toward the assembly of molecules traditionally generated by olefin–olefin metathesis or …

The carbonyl–olefin metathesis (COM) reaction is a highly valuable chemical transformation
in a broad range of applications. However, its scope is much less explored compared to …

The carbonyl–olefin metathesis reaction could facilitate rapid functional group
interconversion and allow construction of complicated organic structures. Herein, we …

We report here a C–H homoallylation reaction of aromatic ketones with
methylenecyclopropanes (MCPs) only using a catalytic amount of Fe (PMe3) 4. A variety of …
