Allylation reactions are one of the most fundamental and productive C− C bond-forming
transformations, as the allyl group can provide a useful handle for further manipulation …

Synthetic organic chemistry has witnessed a plethora of functionalization and
defunctionalization strategies. In this regard, C− H functionalization has been at the forefront …

Transition-metal-catalyzed C–H bond functionalizations have had an enormous influence on
organic synthesis in recent times. However, the use of low-abundance 4d and 5d metals is …

Transition metal catalysis that utilizes N-heterocyclic carbenes as noninnocent ligands in
promoting transformations has not been well studied. We report here a cyclic (alkyl)(amino) …

The formation of silicon–carbon bonds through the selective coupling of two strong
electrophilic bonds has been less developed. We report here silylation reactions that …

Conspectus Transition-metal catalysis has traditionally been dominated by precious metals
because of their high reactivity toward chemical transformations. As a cost-effective …

Selective editing of the benzenoid C− H bonds (C4− C7) in indoles/indolines has received
great interest because functionalized indoles/indolines are featured in many marketed drugs …

Abstract C− H/C− H oxidative coupling has emerged as a straightforward and powerful
technique for the construction of (hetero) biaryls, with substantial application to drug …

Deoxygenative cross-coupling between unactivated C–O and unsaturated C═ O
electrophiles remains an unsolved challenge in synthetic chemistry. Here, we report the …

We herein developed a palladium-catalyzed reaction of [1, 2, 3]-benzotriazin-4 (3 H)-ones
with DABAL-Me3 [bis (trimethylaluminum)-1, 4-diazabicyclo [2.2. 2] octane adduct], a cheap …
