In the present review, we discuss recent progress in the field of C–Z bond formation
reactions (Z= S, Se, Te) catalyzed by transition metals. Two complementary methodologies …

Molecules containing a sulfonyl functionality, such as sulfones, sulfonyl chlorides or
sulfonamides play an important role in organic chemistry and have found widespread …

Arylsulfonyl compounds are among the most important compounds in pharmaceutical and
medicinal chemistry. Hence, a wide variety of sulfonylation methods have been reported …

Sulfones play a pivotal role in modern organic chemistry. They are highly versatile building
blocks and find various applications as drugs, agrochemicals, or functional materials …

Recent advances in the sulfonylation of C–H bonds with the insertion of sulfur dioxide are
summarized. Usually, a sulfur dioxide surrogate, DABCO·(SO2) 2, is used, which avoids the …

The transition-metal-catalysed cross-coupling reaction has established itself as one of the
most reliable and practical synthetic tools for the efficient construction of carbon …

Selenium, originally described as a toxin, turns out to be a crucial trace element for life that
appears as selenocysteine and its dimer, selenocystine. From the point of view of drug …

Herein, a novel method for the gram-scale synthesis of (E)-quinoxalinone oximes through a
multicomponent reaction under mild conditions is described. Such a transformation was …

We report a Minisci-type cross-dehydrogenative alkylation in an aerobic atmosphere using
abundant and inexpensive cerium chloride as a photocatalyst and air as an oxidant. This …

The first example of oxidative C–H fluoroalkoxylation of quinoxalinones with fluoroalkyl
alcohols under transition-metal and solvent-free conditions is described. This approach …
