Over the past decade, the landscape of molecular synthesis has gained major impetus by
the introduction of late-stage functionalization (LSF) methodologies. C–H functionalization …

In industries and academic laboratories, several late transition metal-catalyzed prerequisite
reactions are widely performed during single and multistep synthesis. However, besides the …

C–H activation has surfaced as an increasingly powerful tool for molecular sciences, with
notable applications to material sciences, crop protection, drug discovery, and …

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 …

In the field of C–H bond functionalization chemistry, directed C–H bond activation strategies
