The present review offers an overview of the current approaches for the photochemical and
photocatalytic generation of reactive intermediates and their application in the formation of …

The escalating emergence of resistant bacterial strains is one of the most important threats
to human health. With the increasing incidence of multi-drugs infections, there is an urgent …

Many recent studies have used KO t Bu in organic reactions that involve single electron
transfer; in the literature, the electron transfer is proposed to occur either directly from the …

Early Main Group Metal Catalysis gives a comprehensive overview of catalytic reactions in
the presence of group 1 and group 2 metals. Chapters are ordered to reaction type, contain …

The synthesis of polyfunctionalized aminothioalkenes has been realized via the direct C–H
sulfenylation of enaminones and analogous enamines. These cross-coupling reactions …

Transition-metal-catalyzed cross-couplings have been extensively used in the
pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries for the construction of diverse C–C bonds …

Long-standing controversial reports of electron transfer from KO t Bu to benzophenone have
been investigated and resolved. The mismatch in the oxidation potential of KO t Bu (+ 0.10 V …

Recent developments in the photochemical carbon–carbon and carbon–heteroatom bond
formation via photoinduced Ar–X bond dissociation are summarized. The transformations …

Phenalenyl-based molecules can switch their redox states on successive addition of
electrons from a cation to a radical to an anion. Utilizing this phenomenal ability, we have …

Previous studies have reported the arylation of unactivated arenes with ArX, base (KO t Bu
or NaO t Bu), and an organic additive at high temperatures. Recently, we showed that this …
