1, 1, 1, 3, 3, 3-Hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP) is a polar, strongly hydrogen bond-donating
solvent that has found numerous uses in organic synthesis due to its ability to stabilize ionic …

Synthetic organic electrosynthesis has grown in the past few decades by achieving many
valuable transformations for synthetic chemists. Although electrocatalysis has been popular …

Transition metal-catalysed C–H activation has emerged as an increasingly powerful platform
for molecular syntheses, enabling applications to natural product syntheses, late-stage …

Since the definition of the “12 Principles of Green Chemistry” more than 20 years ago,
chemists have become increasingly mindful of the need to conserve natural resources and …

In this contribution, we provide a comprehensive overview of C–H activation methods
promoted by NHC–transition metal complexes, covering the literature since 2002 (the year …

Transition metal-catalyzed C–H bond functionalizations have been the focus of intensive
research over the last decades for the formation of C–C bonds from unfunctionalized arenes …

In recent years, photoredox catalysis has come to the forefront in organic chemistry as a
powerful strategy for the activation of small molecules. In a general sense, these approaches …

Crop leaves in full sunlight dissipate damaging excess absorbed light energy as heat. When
sunlit leaves are shaded by clouds or other leaves, this protective dissipation continues for …

The selective and efficient C–H methylation of sp2 and sp3 carbon centres has become a
powerful transformation in the synthetic toolbox. Due to the potential for profound changes to …

Organic reactions that involve the direct functionalization of non-activated C–H bonds
represent an attractive class of transformations which maximize atom-and step-economy …
