A visible light-induced Co-or Cu-catalyzed selenosulfonylation of alkynes for the synthesis of
β-(seleno) vinyl sulfones is demonstrated. This method utilizes a low-cost cobalt salt or metal …

A dual catalytic decarboxylative allylation and benzylation method for the construction of
new C (sp3)–C (sp3) bonds between readily available carboxylic acids and functionally …

The skeletal editing of dibenzolactones to fluorenes by Ni-or Pd-catalyzed decarboxylation
is reported. In contrast to previously reported intramolecular decarboxylative couplings …

We have discovered and developed a highly chemoselective O-benzylation of ambident 2-
quinolinone nucleophiles via Pd-catalysis. Detailed reaction analysis using direct-injection …

A new method for the synthesis of 4‐propargyl‐substituted 1H‐pyrroles is described. When
treated with sodium hydride in refluxing dichloromethane, N‐(5‐phenyl‐2, 4‐pentadiynyl) β …

The palladium catalyst for the nucleophilic substitution of benzyl carbonates was improved
by using 1, 1′-bis (diisopropylphosphino) ferrocene (D i PrPF) as the ligand. The [Pd (η3 …

A palladium-catalyzed highly regio-and stereoselective allenic C–H oxidative coupling with
α-diazo esters is developed. The reaction pathway involves allylic palladium carbene as the …

Palladium‐catalyzed decarboxylative alkynylation of α‐acyloxyketones triggered by C
(sp3)− O bond cleavage is disclosed. The decarboxylation strategy featuring a neutral …

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 …

Herein, the development and mechanistic elucidation of light-driven decarboxylative
processes for the installation of olefins is described. The primary focus has been to devise …
