Pick your Pd partners: A number of catalytic systems have been developed for palladium‐
catalyzed C H activation/C C bond formation. Recent studies concerning the palladium …

Abstract Katalyse mit Methode: Eine ganze Reihe katalytischer Palladiumsysteme für die C‐
H‐Aktivierung/C‐C‐Kupplung (siehe Schema) wurde in jüngerer Zeit entwickelt. Ein …

Organocatalytic enantioselective desymmetrisation of achiral or meso compounds is a
powerful strategy for the construction of enantiomerically enriched complex molecules, often …

Acyl transfer is at the heart of functional‐group transfers utilized both in nature and in the
chemical laboratory. Acylations are part of the natural assembly machinery for the …

We present here a highly efficient NHC‐catalyzed kinetic resolution of a wide range of 1, 1′‐
biaryl‐2, 2′‐diols and amino alcohols to provide them in uniformly≥ 99% ee. This …

Transition-metal-catalyzed enantioselective functionalization of acyl radicals has so far not
been realized, probably due to their relatively high reactivity, which renders the chemo-and …

An emerging area of research in chemistry requires that we learn how to manage the
characteristics of a pair of co-catalysts so that a transformation proceeds as we wish it to …

Synthetic and mechanistic aspects of the diarylborinic acid-catalyzed regioselective
monofunctionalization of 1, 2-and 1, 3-diols are presented. Diarylborinic acid catalysis is …

This review focuses on a new approach to combinatorial homogeneous transition‐metal
catalysis which goes beyond the traditional parallel preparation of modular ligands. It is …

This review article presents how nitrogen‐centred Lewis bases were modified in order to
increase their reactivity in catalytic processes. As examples, we focus on alcohol acylation …
