Hypervalent aryliodoumiums are intensively investigated as arylating agents. They are
excellent surrogates to aryl halides, and moreover they exhibit better reactivity, which allows …

Fluorinated molecules have a wide range of applications and are used as medicines,
agrochemicals and refrigerants and in smartphone liquid crystal displays, photovoltaic solar …

This Perspective surveys the progress and current limitations of nucleophilic fluorination
methodologies. Despite the long and rich history of C (sp3)–F bond construction in chemical …

Site selectivity represents a key challenge for non-directed C–H functionalization, even
when the C–H bond is intrinsically reactive. Here, we report a copper-catalyzed method for …

Despite the recent advancements of Cu catalysis for the cross-coupling of alkyl electrophiles
and the frequently proposed involvement of alkyl–Cu (III) complexes in such reactions, little …

Although the transition metal-catalyzed radical fluorine atom transfer (FAT) strategy has
emerged as a powerful tool for the construction of C–F bonds, to our knowledge, this …

Nickel K-and L2, 3-edge X-ray absorption spectra (XAS) are discussed for 16 complexes
and complex ions with nickel centers spanning a range of formal oxidation states from II to …

Crown ethers are macrocyclic hosts that can complex a wide range of inorganic and organic
cations as well as neutral guest species. Their widespread utilization in several areas of …

Herein, we present an overview of recent advances in the electrochemical halogenation of
organic compounds. Halogen-containing compounds are essential building blocks for post …

Copper (III) fluorides are catalytically competent, yet elusive, intermediates in cross‐
coupling. The synthesis of [PPh4][CuIII (CF3) 3F](2), the first stable (isolable) CuIII− F, was …
