Homogeneous gold catalysis has experienced extraordinary development since the dawn of
this millennium. Oxidative gold catalysis is a vibrant and fertile subfield and has over the …

Gold complexes have emerged as the catalysts of choice for various functionalization
reactions of C–C multiple bonds due to their inherent carbophilic nature. In a parallel space …

Over the past decade the organometallic chemistry of gold (III) has seen remarkable
advances. This includes the synthesis of the first examples of several compound classes that …

Taking into account the vast arrays of fluorinated motifs known, 11 this review will be limited
to the monofluorination of organic compounds, ie, synthetic methods allowing the …

Over the past decade, the most significant, conceptual advances in the field of fluorination
were enabled most prominently by organo‐and transition‐metal catalysis. The most …

Fluorinated organic compounds increasingly gain importance in numerous areas of
chemistry and everyday life. Building blocks which contain fluorinated entities are of high …

In this contribution, we provide an overview of the main avenues that have emerged in gold
coordination chemistry during the last years. The unique properties of gold have motivated …

We report herein an operationally simple method for the direct conversion of benzylic C–H
groups to C–F. We show that visible light can activate diarylketones to abstract a benzylic …

For a while, the reactivity of gold complexes was largely dominated by their Lewis acid
behavior. In contrast to the other transition metals, the elementary steps of organometallic …

Bismuth catalysis has traditionally relied on the Lewis acidic properties of the element in a
fixed oxidation state. In this paper, we report a series of bismuth complexes that can undergo …
