This review describes recent progress made in the rapidly developing field of C H bond
activation, in particular for syntheses of biaryls. The catalysts presented here provide …

Since the time of Giacomo Ciamician at the beginning of the 20th century, photochemical
transformations have been recognized as contributing to sustainable chemistry. Electronic …

This paper describes a photoredox palladium/iridium‐catalyzed C H arylation with
diaryliodonium reagents. Details of the reaction optimization, substrate scope, and …

The atom‐transfer carbonylation reaction of various alkyl iodides thereby leading to
carboxylic acid esters was effectively accelerated by the addition of transition‐metal …

Radical arylations of para‐substituted phenols and phenyl ethers proceeded with good
regioselectivity at the ortho position with respect to the hydroxy or alkoxy group. The …

One, two or three? The utilization of sterically hindered alkyl substrates represents a major
challenge of the present cross‐coupling methodology. The nickel‐catalyzed Kumada cross …

Radical ions are involved in many crucial chemical reactions,[1, 2] and they have thus been
extensively studied over the years. However, their excited-state properties are still mostly …

Ti/Pd-mediated Würtz-type coupling reaction: The singleelectron reduction of an h3-
allylpalladium intermediate generates an allyl radical that can couple with: 1) a molecule of …

The reactivity of the reduced ZrIIICo0 heterobimetallic complex [(thf) Zr (MesNPiPr2)
3CoN2](1a) towards O–H, S–H, S–S, and O–O bonds has been investigated. Complex 1a …

A new strategy for tuning the electron transfer between radicals and enolates has been
developed. This method elicits the innate reactivity of AIBN with a copper catalyst and …
