The story of C− C bond formation includes several reactions, and surely Suzuki‐Miyaura is
among the most outstanding ones. Herein, a brief historical overview of insights regarding …

The amide bond represents the most fundamental functional group in numerous areas of
chemistry, such as organic synthesis, drug discovery, polymers, and biochemistry. Although …

Organic halides are important building blocks in synthesis, but their use in (photo) redox
chemistry is limited by their low reduction potentials. Halogen-atom transfer remains the …

Transition-metal-catalyzed decarbonylation via carbon–carbon bond cleavage is an
essential synthetic methodology. Given the ubiquity of carbonyl compounds, the selective …

Carbon–heteroatom bonds, most often amide and ester bonds, are the standard method to
link together two complex fragments because carboxylic acids, amines, and alcohols are …

A critically important process in catalysis is the formation of an active catalyst from the
combination of a metal precursor and a ligand, as the efficacy of this reaction governs the …

Conspectus The utilization of carboxylic acid esters as electrophiles in metal-catalyzed cross-
coupling reactions is increasingly popular, as environmentally friendly and readily available …

Cross-coupling reactions are among the most powerful C–C and C–X bond forming tools in
organic chemistry. Traditionally, cross-coupling methods rely on the use of aryl halides or …

While ketones are among the most versatile functional groups, their synthesis remains
reliant upon reactive and low‐abundance starting materials. In contrast, amide formation is …

Transition-metal-catalyzed reductive coupling reactions have been considered as a
powerful tool to convert two electrophiles into value-added products. Numerous related …
