Late-stage functionalization (LSF) introduces functional group or structural modification at
the final stage of the synthesis of natural products, drugs, and complex compounds. It is …

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

Conspectus Benzo-fused skeletons are ubiquitous in agrochemicals, medicines, natural
products, catalysts, and other organic function materials. The assembly of these skeletons in …

The Catellani reaction is known as a powerful strategy for the expeditious synthesis of highly
substituted arenes and benzo‐fused rings, which are usually difficult to access through …

Palladium/norbornene (Pd/NBE) cooperative catalysis has received enormous attention and
found numerous synthetic applications in the past two decades. Considering the critical …

Optically active α-arylation carbonyl units are widely present in a wide variety of drugs,
bioactive natural products, and valuable pharmacologically active molecules. Catalytic …

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

We report a dual-tasked methylation that is based on cooperative palladium/norbornene
catalysis. Readily available (hetero) aryl halides (39 iodides and 4 bromides) and …

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 …

A palladium (II)-catalyzed 1, 1-difunctionalization of unactivated terminal and internal
alkenes via addition of two nucleophiles was developed using a cationic palladium (II) …
