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 …

Transition-metal-catalyzed C–H activation has developed a contemporary approach to the
omnipresent area of retrosynthetic disconnection. Scientific researchers have been tempted …

The development of green and convenient methods for C–S bond formation has received
significant attention because C–S bond widely occurs in many important pharmaceutical …

Chalcogenide motifs are present as principal moieties in a vast array of natural products and
complex molecules. Till date, the construction of these chalcogen motifs has been restricted …

Chalcogenative sulfones (thiosulfonates and selenosulfonates), as reactants for organic
transformations, are widely used and interesting because of their potential to react with …

Umpolung of thiols has become a common strategy for the synthesis of various S-containing
compounds and thus a series of sulfur electrophiles have been designed and applied for …

Transition metal-catalyzed C–S bond formation reactions have attracted considerable
attention in the recent years. In this regard, palladium-catalyzed C–S bond formation is …

A versatile protocol for the C–H chalcogenation of indolines and indoles by means of copper
catalysis was established. The C–H functionalization occurred selectively at the C7 position …

The first general methodology for the direct thiolation of electron‐rich heteroarenes was
developed by employing Pd/Al2O3, a recoverable and commercially available …

A novel, efficient and unprecedented green protocol for the formation of C–S bonds has
been developed under metal-free conditions. This protocol involves the synthesis of aryl …
