In the present review, we discuss recent progress in the field of C–Z bond formation
reactions (Z= S, Se, Te) catalyzed by transition metals. Two complementary methodologies …

Conspectus Transition-metal catalyzed cross-coupling reactions are fundamental reactions
in organic chemistry, facilitating strategic bond formations for accessing natural products …

Precious and rare elements have traditionally dominated inorganic photophysics and
photochemistry, but now we are witnessing a paradigm shift toward cheaper and more …

While the oxidative addition of Ni (I) to aryl iodides has been commonly proposed in catalytic
methods, an in-depth mechanistic understanding of this fundamental process is still lacking …

The oxidative addition of aryl halides to bipyridine-or phenanthroline-ligated nickel (I) is a
commonly proposed step in nickel catalysis. However, there is a scarcity of complexes of this …

Cross-coupling reactions are among the most important transformations in modern organic
synthesis,–. Although the range of reported (het) aryl halides and nucleophile coupling …

Ni 2, 2′–bipyridine (bpy) complexes are commonly employed photoredox catalysts of bond-
forming reactions in organic chemistry. However, the mechanisms by which they operate are …

Here we report the use of pulse radiolysis and spectroelectrochemistry to generate low-
valent nickel intermediates relevant to synthetically important Ni-catalyzed cross-coupling …

Multi-catalytic reaction modes have attracted widespread attention in synthetic chemistry.
The merger of nickel catalysis with photoredox catalysis has offered a powerful platform for …

By combining the energy input from two red photons, chemical reactions that would normally
require blue or ultraviolet irradiation become accessible. Key advantages of this biphotonic …
