The reductive amination, the reaction of an aldehyde or a ketone with ammonia or an amine
in the presence of a reducing agent and often a catalyst, is an important amine synthesis …

In industries and academic laboratories, several late transition metal-catalyzed prerequisite
reactions are widely performed during single and multistep synthesis. However, besides the …

Steric indices are parameters used in chemistry to describe the spatial arrangement of
atoms or groups of atoms in molecules. They are important in determining the reactivity …

The last two decades have seen an impressive improvement of the use of iron as a
fascinating and valuable alternative transition metal in homogeneous catalysis in terms of …

The present review “Iron Catalysis in Organic Synthesis” covers the literature until the end of

The asymmetric hydrogenation of heteroarenes has recently emerged as an effective
strategy for the direct access to enantioenriched, saturated heterocycles. Although several …

A general and benign iron‐catalyzed α‐alkylation reaction of ketones with primary alcohols
has been developed. The key to success of the reaction is the use of a Knölker‐type …
