A triphenylphosphinegold(I)-catalyzed cyclopropanation of olefins using propargyl esters as gold(I)−carbene precursors is reported. This reaction provided the basis for use a DTBM-SEGPHOS gold(I) complex catalyst in enantioselective (up to 94% ee) preparation vinyl cyclopropanes with high cis-selectivity.

Abstract A diverse set of more than 40 highly functionalized biaryls was synthesized successfully through the Suzuki–Miyaura cross‐coupling reaction catalyzed by Pd nanoparticles supported in a mesoporous MOF (8 wt % Pd@MIL‐101(Cr)‐NH 2 ). This could be achieved under some mildest conditions reported to date and strong control over leaching metallic species maintained, despite presence functional groups and/or several heteroatoms. Some targeted molecules are important intermediates synthesis...

At the early stages of drug development process, thousands compounds are synthesized in order to attain best possible potency and pharmacokinetic properties. Once successful scaffolds identified, large libraries analogues made, which is a challenging time-consuming task. Recently, late stage functionalization (LSF) has become increasingly prominent since these reactions selectively functionalize C–H bonds, allowing quickly produce analogues. Classical electrophilic aromatic halogenations...

The borylation of aryl and heteroaryl C–H bonds is valuable for the site-selective functionalization in complex molecules. Iridium catalysts ligated by bipyridine ligands catalyze bond that most acidic least sterically hindered an arene, but predicting site molecules containing multiple arenes difficult. To address this challenge, we report a hybrid computational model predicts Site Borylation (SoBo) SoBo combines density functional theory, semiempirical quantum mechanics, cheminformatics,...

Electrooxidation has emerged as an increasingly viable platform in molecular syntheses that can avoid stoichiometric chemical redox agents. Despite major progress electrochemical C-H activations, these arene functionalizations generally require directing groups to enable the activation.

Efficient functionalization of C-H bonds can be achieved using transition metal catalysts, such as Pd(OAc)2. To better control the regioselectivity in these reactions, some functional groups on substrate may used directing groups, guiding reactivity to an ortho position.
