Arynes are among the most active organic intermediates and have found numerous
applications in expeditious preparation of substituted arenes. In the past 20 years, chemists …

Transition-metal-catalyzed reactions have been studied since the very beginning of the past
century and represent a great success in organic chemistry, along with the birth and growth …

1. INTRODUCTION Within 14 years of the seminal experiments of JD Roberts leading to the
first proposal of the structure of benzyne (1), 1 synthetic organic chemists recognized the …

Conspectus Arynes are highly reactive intermediates having several applications in organic
synthesis for the construction of various ortho-disubstituted arenes. Traditionally, arynes are …

Utilizing renewable resources is a prerequisite for a sustainable society. One easily
available renewable carbon resource is carbon dioxide (CO2), which has the advantages of …

This tutorial review is aimed at highlighting recent developments in transition-metal-free
carbon–carbon and carbon–heteroatom bond-forming reactions utilizing a versatile class of …

About two decades after Kobayashi's discovery in 1983 of a very mild way of generating
highly reactive aryne intermediates, the synthetic community embraced o-(trimethylsilyl) aryl …

Carbon dioxide is commonly regarded as the primary greenhouse gas, but from a synthetic
standpoint can be utilized as an alternative and sustainable C1 synthon in organic synthesis …

Carbon dioxide (CO 2) is the main greenhouse gas and also an ideal C1 feedstock in
organic synthesis because it is abundant, non-toxic, nonflammable, and renewable. The …

Biomass resources have infinite possibilities for introducing nitrogen, sulfur, or phosphorus
heteroatoms into their structures by virtue of controllable carbon–heteroatom bond …
