Silver is a less expensive noble metal. Superior alkynophilicity due to π-coordination with
the carbon–carbon triple bond makes silver salts ideal catalysts for alkyne-based organic …

Silver, known and utilized since ancient times, is a coinage metal, which has been widely
used for various organic transformations in the past few decades. Currently, the silver …

Silver‐mediated reactions have recently emerged as a frontier area in organic chemistry.
Indeed, the remarkable property of silver as a single‐electron oxidant has led to its …

Organic synthesis is one of the most important issues in modern chemical society. Its
powerful ability of constructing chemical bonds was widely applied in the fields of …

Molecular iodine was found to be an effective redox catalyst for the oxidative cross-coupling
of carbonyl compounds with terminal alkynes. In this work, we demonstrated that iodine …

A novel and efficient CuI-catalyzed synthesis of 2, 3, 5-trisubstituted furans was developed
via coupling cyclization of gem-difluoroalkenes with active methylene carbonyl compounds …

Isocyanides are versatile building blocks, and have been extensively exploited in C H
functionalization reactions. However, transition‐metal‐catalyzed direct C H …

AgSbF6-Catalyzed anti-Markovnikov addition of pinacolborane (HBpin) to terminal alkynes
to produce the E-vinylboronates is reported. This efficient methodology is scalable …

Direct oxidative C (sp)− H/C (sp3)− H cross‐coupling offers an ideal and environmentally
benign protocol for C (sp)− C (sp3) bond formations. As such, reactivity and site‐selectivity …

A combined DFT and experimental study was performed to reveal the mechanism of
isocyanide-alkyne cycloaddition. Our results indicate that the mechanism of this valuable …
