Sonogashira coupling is one of the Nobel reactions discovered in 1975 to form a C–C bond
using palladium and copper as co-catalysts. Incorporating alkyne functionalities either in …

Sustainable and efficient aryl halides with copper-free Heck–Cassar–Sonogashira (HCS)
and Suzuki–Miyaura (SM) cross-coupling reactions were described. Independently from the …

A large number of publications yearly witnessed myriad synthetic uses of the Sonogashira-
Hagihara cross-coupling in organic transformations. Still, many challenges need to be …

The construction of photocatalysts with Z-scheme heterojunction structures has been
regarded as an effective strategy to enhance catalytic efficiency in artificial photosynthesis …

The heterobimetallic complexes [{Pd (PPh3) 2 (4-Epy) 2}{Cu (PPh3) 2Cl} 2](E= S, Se) were
synthesized from the CuI complex [CuCl (PPh3) 3] and “metallo-ligands”[PdCl (PPh3) 2 (4 …

Even though α-arylation of ketones is a highly relevant transformation for direct C–H
functionalization of organic substrates, the method largely relies on phosphine-ligated …

Dinuclear complexes bearing Ru (II) photoactive centers are of interest for the development
of efficient dual catalysts for many photocatalyzed reactions. Ditopic polypyridine ligands, bis …

Herein, we report a new strategy for the palladium-catalyzed radical arylation of N-
hydroxyphthalimides with triphenyl phosphites via C (sp2)–O bond cleavage. In this …

Herein, a novel approach of bimetallic Pd (OAc) 2/CuI-catalyzed alkynylation of 3-
chloroazetidin-2-one (β-lactam derivative) with terminal alkyne via tandem C–C bond …

The dissertation contained herein will chronical the development of new Pd-and Ni-
catalyzed CX bond forming reactions and the initial development of a new direct-injection …
