In the present review, we discuss recent progress in the field of C–Z bond formation
reactions (Z= S, Se, Te) catalyzed by transition metals. Two complementary methodologies …

The development of synthetic methods for the introduction of the fluorine atom and
fluoroalklyl groups into organic molecules has gained increased attention. Synthetic organic …

Transition metal-catalyzed direct functionalization of C–H bonds is one of the key emerging
strategies that is currently attracting tremendous attention with the aim to provide alternative …

The development of mild and general methods for C–S bond formation has received
significant attention because the C–S bond is indispensable in many important biological …

Conspectus Fluorine, which is the most electronegative element and has a small atomic
radius, plays a key role in pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and materials sciences. One of the …

Selective functionalization of ubiquitous C (sp3)–H bonds using visible light is a highly
challenging yet desirable goal in organic synthesis. The development of such processes …

A catalytic protocol to convert aryl and heteroaryl chlorides to the corresponding
trifluoromethyl sulfides is reported herein. It relies on a relatively inexpensive Ni (cod) 2/dppf …

In recent years, visible‐light‐induced C− H bond functionalization has become an emerging
field at the forefront of organic chemistry. In a general sense, these approaches rely on the …

The direct introduction of fluorine and fluorinated building blocks has recently attracted a lot
of attention and particularly the direct functionalization of alkenes and alkynes. This review …

Transition metal-catalyzed C–S bond formation reactions have attracted considerable
attention in the recent years. In this regard, palladium-catalyzed C–S bond formation is …
