Transition-metal-catalyzed reactions have been studied since the very beginning of the past
century and represent a great success in organic chemistry, along with the birth and growth …

Does the dehydrogenative coupling of aromatic compounds mediated by AlCl3 at high
temperatures and also by FeCl3, MoCl5, PIFA, or K3 [Fe (CN) 6] at room temperature …

Arylraryl bond formation is one of the most important tools of modern organic synthesis.
These bonds are very often found in natural products such as alkaloids as well as in …

The organic chemistry of polyvalent iodine compounds has experienced an unprecedented,
explosive development during the last decade of the 20th century. A quick SciFinder Scholar …

The richness of the chemistry of phenols is quite remarkable when one realizes that it is
simply the presence of a hydroxy group on a benzene ring that renders this otherwise quasi …

Biaryls constitute an important subunit found in medicinal agents, functional materials, and
natural products. While the Suzuki reaction and related processes currently represent the …

The catalytic utilization of hypervalent iodine reagents, largely in consideration of
economical and environmental viewpoints, is a most attractive strategy due to their unique …

Advances in hypervalent iodine chemistry have put the field on the precipice of a second
golden age; the first being pioneered in the 1990s. During that period, C–C bond forming …

We first introduced 1, 1, 1, 3, 3, 3-hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP) and 2, 2, 2-trifluoroethanol
(TFE) as unique solvents for reactions involving hypervalent iodine-mediated phenolic …
