Selective activation of CH bond of phenol in ortho-position into COH bond in a two-phase system
A method for the selective activation of CH bond of phenol in ortho-position into C-OH bond was developed at room temperature over Cu2+ ions in a two-phase system using marginally water-soluble polar alcohols, acetonitrile and water as solvents and ...

Lead-free B-site bimetallic perovskite photocatalyst for efficient benzylic C–H bond activation
Summary: Although bismuth (Bi)-based halide perovskites have attracted profound attention in photocatalysis, the undesirable photophysical properties are not well modulated, and the effect of surface structure on adsorption and activation of reactant ...

Computational exploration of the reaction mechanism of the Cu+-catalysed synthesis of indoles from N-aryl enaminones [PDF]
We have studied the role of Cu+-phenantroline as a catalyst in the cyclization of N-aryl-enaminones using density-functional theory computations. The catalyst was found to bind the substrate upon deprotonation of its eneaminone, and to dramatically ...

Ni-catalyzed benzylic β-C(sp3)–H bond activation of formamides
The development of 3d-metal-catalyzed β-C–H bond activation via 4-membered metallacycles remains an elusive challenge. Here, the authors report a Ni-Al bimetal-catalyzed β-C(sp3)–H bond activation of formamides via 4-membered nickelacycles.

C2-Alkylation of N-pyrimidylindole with vinylsilane via cobalt-catalyzed C–H bond activation
Direct C2-alkylation of an indole bearing a readily removable N-pyrimidyl group with a vinylsilane was achieved by using a cobalt catalyst generated in situ from CoBr2, bathocuproine, and cyclohexylmagnesium bromide.

Cobalt-catalyzed directed C–H alkenylation of pivalophenone N–H imine with alkenyl phosphates
A cobalt–N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalyst efficiently promotes an ortho C–H alkenylation reaction of pivalophenone N–H imine with an alkenyl phosphate. The reaction tolerates various substituted pivalophenone N–H imines as well as cyclic and acyclic
