Si–B reagents, namely silylboronic esters and silylboranes, have become increasingly
attractive as versatile reagents to introduce silicon and boron atoms into organic …

The metal-catalyzed asymmetric conjugate addition (ACA) reaction has emerged as a
general and powerful approach for the construction of optically active compounds and is …

The nucleophilic addition of carbon nucleophiles to amides has traditionally been a difficult
task, both due to reactivity and selectivity problems. When successful, these processes …

The copper‐catalyzed stereoselective defluorinative borylation and silylation of gem‐
difluoroalkenes was developed. The protocol led to the exclusive formation of Z type …

Organosilanes have become a mainstay in organic synthesis as they can participate in a
wide number of reactions where they act as a soft carbon nucleophile. They can engage in …

Since the introduction of 2-methyltetrahydrofuran as an useful alternative to the classical
tetrahydrofuran, there has been a continuous interest in the synthetic community operating …

A RhIII‐catalyzed intramolecular oxidative cross‐coupling between double bonds for the
synthesis of macrolides is described. Under the optimized reaction conditions, macrocycles …

Solvents are crucial platforms in organic synthesis. Thereby, the choice of a solvent is critical
in order to develop sustainable eco-friendly synthetic methodologies. Hence, the present …

The necessity of more sustainable conditions that follow the twelve principles of Green
Chemistry have pushed researchers to the development of novel reagents, catalysts and …

Broadly applicable enantioselective C–B and C–Si bond-forming processes catalyzed by an
N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) were recently introduced; these boryl and silyl conjugate …
