Pd(0)/Cu(I)-mediated direct arylation of 2'-deoxyadenosines: mechanistic role of Cu(I) and reactivity comparisons with related purine nucleosides.
Thomas E. Storr,Christoph G. Baumann,Robert J. Thatcher,Sara De Ornellas,Adrian C. Whitwood,Ian J. S. Fairlamb +5 more
TL;DR: It has been determined that a substoichiometric quantity of piperidine (secondary amine) in combination with cesium carbonate is necessary for effective direct arylation of 2'-deoxyadenosine, which explains the mandatory requirement for stoichiometric amounts of this key component.

Progress in the synthesis of sustainable polymers from terpenes and terpenoids
TL;DR: The imminent depletion of resources derived from fossil fuels is a major concern for today's society as mentioned in this paper, and 300mt of polymers are used every year in the form of plastics, most commonly derived from foss...

Palladium-Catalyzed Arylation of Simple Arenes with Iodonium Salts
TL;DR: The development of an arylation protocol for simple arenes with diaryliodonium salts using the Herrmann-Beller palladacycle catalyst is reported, which creates valuable biaryls for use in all sectors of the chemical industry.

TL;DR: A systematic study on the substrate and reagent scope of this remarkable transformation featuring an unprecedented direct transmetalation on a Ru(II)-H species and the successful use of a variety of heteroarylboronic esters as coupling partners proved the power of this direct functionalization method.

TL;DR: In this paper, an impurity in Pd(OAc)5NO2 was identified as a serious issue in the synthesis of pure PdII complexes derived from PdOAc2, for example in our C-H activation precatalyst, Pd[OAc]2(pip)2 (pip = piperidine).
