Heterogeneous catalysis involves solid-state catalysts, among which metal nanoparticles
occupy an important position. Unfortunately, no two nanoparticles from conventional …

N-Oxyl compounds represent a diverse group of reagents that find widespread use as
catalysts for the selective oxidation of organic molecules in both laboratory and industrial …

Key similarities and differences of Pd and Ni in catalytic systems are discussed. Overall, Ni
and Pd catalyze a vast number of similar C–C and C–heteroatom bond-forming reactions …

The chemistry of vanadium has seen remarkable activity in the past 50 years. In the present
review, reactions catalyzed by homogeneous and supported vanadium complexes from …

Directing group assisted ortho‐C− H activation has been known for the last few decades. In
contrast, extending the same approach to achieve activation of the distal meta‐and para‐C …

Transition metal–catalyzed coupling reactions have become one of the most important tools
in modern synthesis. However, an inherent limitation to these reactions is the need to …

Electrochemical oxidation represents an environmentally friendly solution to conventional
methods that require caustic stoichiometric chemical oxidants. However, C–H …

Branched allylic esters and carboxylates are fundamental motifs prevalent in natural
products and drug molecules. The direct allylic C–H oxygenation of internal alkenes …

Oxygenation is a fundamental transformation in synthesis. Herein, we describe the selective
late‐stage oxygenation of sulfur‐containing complex molecules with ground‐state oxygen …

At the advent of cross-coupling chemistry, carbon electrophiles based on halides or
pseudohalides were the only suitable electrophilic coupling partners. Almost two decades …
