Alkenes and their derivatives are featured widely in a variety of natural products,
pharmaceuticals, and advanced materials. Significant efforts have been made toward the …

Direct difunctionalization of simple alkenes, the incorporation of two functional groups onto a
carbon–carbon double bond, is of particular interest to the chemical community owing to its …

Carbon–carbon/carbon–heteroatom bond formation via oxidative transformations is a
heavily explored topic at the frontier of chemistry. Potassium persulfate (K2S2O8) has …

A direct C–H bond phosphonation of quinoxalin-2 (1H)-ones with H-phosphonates, H-
phosphinates or H-phosphine oxides has been developed. A wide variety of heteroaryl …

The synthesis of polyfunctionalized aminothioalkenes has been realized via the direct C–H
sulfenylation of enaminones and analogous enamines. These cross-coupling reactions …

Silver‐mediated reactions have recently emerged as a frontier area in organic chemistry.
Indeed, the remarkable property of silver as a single‐electron oxidant has led to its …

A practical, scalable electrochemical dehydrogenative cross-coupling of P (O) H compounds
with thiols, phenols and alcohols in both an undivided cell and a continuous-flow setup is …

A silver (I)-mediated phosphorylation/cyclization radical cascade of N-cyanamide alkenes
has been developed. The addition of in situ generated phosphorus radical to N-cyanamide …

Transition metal-free organic transformations using K2S2O8 is one of the most efficient
methods for the formation of carbon–carbon/carbon–heteroatom bond in organic synthesis …

The first direct thiocyanation of ketene dithioacetals has been accomplished in the presence
of N-chlorosuccinimide (NCS) and NH4SCN under transition-metal-free conditions. The …
