The present review “Iron Catalysis in Organic Synthesis” covers the literature until the end of
June 2014 and represents a comprehensive update of a previous article published by Bolm …

Often used as a common solvent for chemical reations and utilized widely in industry as a
reagent, N, N‐dimethylformamide (DMF) has played an important role in organic synthesis …

Transformations of aromatic compounds into the corresponding amines, amides, and imides
through carbon–hydrogen (C–H) bond functionalization represent one of the most step-and …

This review discusses the origins of iodine-mediated oxidation catalysis and gives a
comprehensive overview on this young field of research. The focus is set on oxidative C–X …

The development of a novel intermolecular oxidative amination reaction, a synthetic
transformation that involves the simultaneous functionalization of both a N–H and C–H …

An efficient transition-metal-free amination of benzoxazoles has been developed. With
catalytic amounts of tetrabutylammoniumiodide (TBAI), aqueous solutions of H2O2 or TBHP …

A Rh (III)-catalyzed direct aromatic C–H amination is achieved using N-chloroamines as a
reagent. Furthermore, we also developed a one-pot amination protocol involving in situ …

2-Amino-substituted 1, 3, 4-oxadiazoles and 1, 3, 4-thiadiazoles were synthesized via
condensation of semicarbazide/thiosemicarbazide and the corresponding aldehydes …

A metal-free novel, simple, and highly efficient method for the direct C2-alkylation of azoles
with alcohols and ethers has been developed on the basis of an oxidative C–H activation …

A novel ruthenium-catalyzed cyclization of ketoxime carboxylates with N, N-
dimethylformamide (DMF) for the synthesis of tetrasubstituted symmetrical pyridines has …
