Direct C-H transformation via iron catalysis.

TL;DR: In this paper, a direct vinylogous cross-dehydrogenative coupling (CDC) reaction of N-aryl tetrahydroisoquinolines with 3,5-dialkyl-4-nitroisoxazoles catalysed by CuBr using air as the oxidant in water has been developed.

TL;DR: This work provides the first site-selective approach for the synthesis of free amino groups containing methanones including unprecedented C-H functionalization rather than the N-Hfunctionalization of unprotected anilines via the Kornblum oxidation of 2-methylquinoline.

TL;DR: This report focuses on the optimization of the key C-H monoarylation of TPD by screening ligands, acid additives, bases, and solvents, and the reaction proves versatile toward new D-A-π-A organic dyes with a variety of different donor groups, and several derivatives are efficiently prepared under optimum reaction conditions.

TL;DR: The pincer ligand on embracing the metal in its rigid coordination sphere, creates a sheltered environment that imparts the catalytic system a set of distinctive benefits, thus turning the balance against conventional catalysts as discussed by the authors .

TL;DR: This is the first comprehensive review encompassing the large body of work in this field over the past 5 years, and will focus specifically on ligand-directed C–H functionalization reactions catalyzed by palladium.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an approach to the formation of C-X (X = N, O, S) bonds in metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions.

TL;DR: A review of palladium-catalyzed coupling of CH bonds with organometallic reagents through a PdII/Pd0 catalytic cycle can be found in this paper.

TL;DR: s, or keywords if they used Heck-type chemistry in their syntheses, because it became one of basic tools of organic preparations, a natural way to make organic preparations.
