The emergence of modern photocatalysis, characterized by mildness and selectivity, has
significantly spurred innovative late-stage C–H functionalization approaches that make use …

In recent years, visible light-induced transition metal catalysis has emerged as a new
paradigm in organic photocatalysis, which has led to the discovery of unprecedented …

Alkyl radicals are key intermediates in organic synthesis. Their classic generation from alkyl
halides has a severe drawback due to the employment of toxic tin hydrides to the point that …

Key similarities and differences of Pd and Ni in catalytic systems are discussed. Overall, Ni
and Pd catalyze a vast number of similar C–C and C–heteroatom bond-forming reactions …

The development of transition metal (TM) catalysis for organic synthesis under visible light
without recourse to typical photoredox catalysts has become a rapidly growing area of …

The exceptional versatility of sulfones has been extensively exploited in organic synthesis
across several decades. Since the first demonstration in 2005 that sulfones can participate …

We report the first palladium hydride enabled hydroalkenylation of strained molecules. This
new mild protocol proceeds via a regio-and chemoselective hydropalladation step, followed …

Selective functionalization of ubiquitous unactivated C–H bonds is a continuous quest for
synthetic organic chemists. In addition to transition metal catalysis, which typically operates …

A visible light-induced palladium-catalyzed homologative three-component synthesis of
allylic amines has been developed. This protocol proceeds via a unique mechanism …

Branched allylic esters and carboxylates are fundamental motifs prevalent in natural
products and drug molecules. The direct allylic C–H oxygenation of internal alkenes …
