The coupling of carboxylic acids and amines to form amide linkages is the most commonly
performed reaction in the pharmaceutical industry. Herein, we report a new strategy that …

The scarcity of 2 nd and 3 rd row transition metals such as ruthenium, iridium, rhodium and
osmium, coupled with a global desire for sustainable chemistry has led to the resurgence of …

Copper-catalyzed radical-relay reactions provide a versatile strategy for selective C–H
functionalization; however, reactions with peroxide-based oxidants often require excess C …

The C–O bond is ubiquitous in biologically active molecules, pharmaceutical agents, and
functional materials, thereby making it an important functional group. Consequently, the …

Ligand-to-metal charge transfer (LMCT) photocatalysis allows the activation and synthetic
