Anthranils are readily available and have recently emerged as versatile building blocks in
the assembly of various C–N bonds and medicinally active heterocyclic systems. A great …

Isoxazoles are an important class of heterocycles with nitrogen and oxygen in a 1, 2‐
relationship. They find wide applications in synthetic organic chemistry and are part of …

Over the last two decades, transition-metal catalyzed C–H functionalization of indoles has
emerged as an area of extensive research and tremendous progress has been made in this …

The activation of typically unreactive aromatic C–H bonds by transition-metal catalysis has
been receiving increased attention from the synthetic chemistry community in recent years …

The construction of N-heterocyclic eight-membered rings with good regio-, stereo-, and
enantioselective control remains a formidable challenge in asymmetric catalysis. Herein, we …

Efficient C4-arylation and domino C4-arylation/3, 2-carbonyl migration of indoles have been
developed. The former route enables C4-arylation in a highly efficient and mild manner and …

Site-selective direct functionalization of an indole benzenoid core has been a great
challenge due to its inherently poor reactivity. We herein demonstrate an iridium-catalyzed …

The indole scaffold is a ubiquitous and useful substructure, and extensive investigations
have been conducted to construct the indole framework and/or realize indole modification …

Pyridone is a ubiquitous motif in natural products, drug molecules, ligands in catalysis and
organic materials. There is a necessity of direct step‐economic methods for the construction …

The presence of nitrogen atom in a wide variety of organic compounds called for the use of
powerful C− H activation strategy in the C− N bond formation. Pentamethylcyclopentadienyl …
