Depending on the reactant property and reaction mechanism, one major regioisomer can be
favored in a reaction that involves multiple active sites. Herein, an orthogonal regulation of …

We report a range of highly regioselective openings of [1.1. 1] propellane with various allylic
zinc halides, as well as zinc enolates of ketones, esters and nitriles. The resulting zincated …

The allyl–allyl cross-coupling reaction is one of the most important cross-coupling reactions
as it provides a practical synthetic route for the direct construction of 1, 5-dienes, which are …

We have summarized the developments and advancements of allyl-(aza) allyl coupling
reactions in the past years. Since the first report in 1980, Pd-catalyzed allyl-allyl couplings …

A variety of functionalized triarylmethane and 1, 1‐diarylalkane derivatives were prepared
via a transition‐metal‐free, one‐pot and two‐step procedure, involving the reaction of …

Abstract The Suzuki–Miyaura (SM) reaction is one of the most important methods for C− C
bond formation in chemical synthesis. In this communication, we show for the first time that …

Terpenoids, such as hemiterpenoids and monoterpenoids, are the largest class of natural
products, which widely exist in plants and marine organisms. Herein, a divergent strategy is …

Installing quaternary stereogenic carbon is an arduous task of contemporary importance in
the domain of asymmetric catalysis. To this end, an asymmetric allylic alkylation of α, α …

A regiospecific allyl–allyl coupling reaction between 1, 3-dienes and allylboronates has
been demonstrated under nickel catalysis. Salient features of this method include the earth …

Cross-coupling of (hetero) arylthiols with arylzinc reagents via C–S cleavage was performed
under transition-metal-free conditions. The reaction displays a wide scope of substrates and …
