Organic compounds labeled with hydrogen isotopes play a crucial role in numerous areas,
from materials science to medicinal chemistry. Indeed, while the replacement of hydrogen by …

The simple and efficient conversion of carbonyl compounds into functionalized alkanes via
deoxygenation is highly enabling in chemical synthesis. This Review covers the recent …

We report a catalytic method for the direct deoxygenation of various C–O bond-containing
functional groups. Using a Ni (II) pre-catalyst and silane reducing agent, alcohols, epoxides …

Cross-coupling reactions to form biaryls and π bond addition reactions to prepare
substituted carbonyls or alcohols represent two of the most frequently performed families of …

Catalytic reduction of carboxylic acids and derivatives all the way to their corresponding
methyl‐compounds is very rare and still challenging for homogeneous transition‐metal …

Here, we document the reinvention of aryne chemistry with" old" o-diiodoarenes as aryne
progenitors. We have established a NaH-mediated activation strategy for the generation of …

Borenium ions have attracted significant attention in organic transformations due to their
strong Lewis acidity. The reported borenium ions are often stabilized by sterically …

A reductive detrifluoromethylation protocol has been developed making use of an earth-
abundant alkoxide base and silicon hydride species. A variety of pyridine and quinoline …

Abstract A site‐selective C (3)/C (4)‐alkylation of N‐pyridylisoquinolones is achieved by
employing C− C bond activation of cyclopropanols under Ru (II)‐catalyzed/Cu (II)‐mediated …

A double deoxygenative C–N coupling protocol has been developed by employing
acyloxyamines through N–O bond activation. The C–N bond formation under mild reaction …
