Transition-metal-catalyzed nucleophilic addition of organometallic reagents to polar
unsaturated substrates is one of the most important and powerful bond-forming strategies …

The development of practical and efficient methods for C–C and C–X bond formation has
attracted a great deal of current attention with the advent of C–H functionalization reactions …

A new strategy has been developed for the oxidant‐and base‐free dehydrogenative
coupling of N‐heterocycles at mild conditions. Under the action of an iridium catalyst, N …

A novel dehydrogenative cross-coupling (DCC) reaction between methylquinoline
derivatives and N-aryl glycine esters was developed by a cooperative catalysis of copper …

addition reactions of alkylazaarenes catalyzed by strong Brønsted bases have been
developed for the first time. The desired reactions with α, β‐unsaturated amides proceeded …

Heterocycles are a ubiquitous substructure in organic small molecules designed for use in
materials and medicines. Recent work in catalysis has focused on enabling access to new …

The regioselective benzylic C–H alumination of various symmetrical and nonsymmetrical 2,
6-alkylpyridines catalyzed by a half-sandwich yttrium complex has been developed. The …

An efficient Fe-catalyzed system is reported for direct α-olefination of methyl-substituted N-
heteroarenes with primary alcohols. The catalytic dehydrogenative coupling enables a …

A copper/Brønsted acid dual-catalyst promoted oxidative cross-dehydrogenative-coupling of
alkylazaarenes and tertiary amines for C (sp3)–C (sp3) bond formation was developed. This …

RuCl3 efficiently catalyzes the alkylation of methylquinolines, methylpyridines, 2-methyl-
benzooxazoles, and 2-methyl-quinoxalines with alkyl-or aryl-alcohols as alkylating agents …
