Palladium/norbornene cooperative catalysis has emerged as a distinct approach to
construct polyfunctionalized arenes from readily available starting materials. This Review …

The Catellani reaction is a palladium-catalyzed hydrocarbon-activated multicomponent
tandem reaction involving an aryl halide, an electrophilic coupling reagent and a terminating …

The Catellani reaction, originally discovered by Catellani in 1997, and further developed by
Catellani, Lautens and others, has emerged as a powerful strategy for the synthesis of …

Graphene nanoribbons (GNRs)–an emerging family of carbon-based semiconductors–can
be precisely synthesised from small molecules such as benzene derivatives through bottom …

While Catellani reactions have become increasingly important for arene functionalizations,
they have been solely catalyzed by palladium. Here we report the first nickel-catalyzed …

Recent years have witnessed palladium-catalyzed C–H activation emerging as a versatile
strategy for the construction of valuable scaffolds. Palladacyclopentane-type intermediates …

Abstract Fe 3+ and Fe 2+ are common metal ions in natural water environments and
creatures. The development of water-soluble fluorescent sensors for detecting Fe 2+/Fe 3+ …

Synthesis of interior-functionalized dendritic macromolecules is generally tedious and labor-
intensive, which has been a key factor hampering their practical applications. Here, we have …

Herein, we report a palladium/norbornene/copper co‐catalyzed single‐step approach that
merges selective ortho C− H bond esterification with ipso thiolation for construction of …

Abstract Alexei Evgrafovich Favorskii was an outstanding organic chemist who left a great
scientific legacy as a result of long time and fruitful work. Most of the theoretically and …
