First-Principles Study of Chemisorption of Oxygen and Aziridine on Graphitic Nanostructures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Using ab initio plane wave pseudopotential calculations, we study the energetics and structure of adsorbed linear arrays of oxygen and aziridine on carbon nanotubes, graphitic ribbons, and graphene sheets.

Photo-driven redox-neutral decarboxylative carbon-hydrogen trifluoromethylation of (hetero)arenes with trifluoroacetic acid

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
C–H bond functionalization has become an important tool for many organic transformations, however such reactions typically require stoichiometric amounts of external oxidants.

Traceless Redox-Annulations of Alicyclic Amines

open access: yesSynOpen, 2020
Amines such as 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline undergo redox­-neutral annulations with ortho-(nitromethyl)benzaldehyde. Benzoic­ acid acts as a promoter in these reactions, which involve concurrent amine α-C–H bond and N–H bond functionalization ...

Activation and Oxidation of Mesitylene C−H Bonds by (Phebox)Iridium(III) Complexes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A pincer iridium(III) complex, (Phebox)Ir(OAc)_2OH_2 (1) (Phebox = 3,5-dimethylphenyl-2,6-bis(oxazolinyl)), selectively cleaves the benzylic C–H bond of mesitylene to form an isolable iridium mesityl complex, (Phebox)Ir(mesityl)(OAc) (3), in >90% yield ...

Enantioselective functionalization of unactivated C(sp3)–H bonds through copper-catalyzed diyne cyclization by kinetic resolution

open access: yesNature Communications
Site- and stereoselective C–H functionalization is highly challenging in the synthetic chemistry community. Although the chemistry of vinyl cations has been vigorously studied in C(sp3)–H functionalization reactions, the catalytic enantioselective C(sp3)–

C–H Activation via Group 8–10 Pincer Complexes: A Mechanistic Approach

open access: yesInorganics
C–H bond activation is a crucial synthetic strategy widely utilized in both academic and industrial settings. Due to the strong and kinetically inert nature of the C–H bond, its functionalization typically requires metal-based catalysts.

Geminal group-directed olefinic C-H functionalization via four- to eight-membered exo-metallocycles

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Identifying distinct cyclometallation pathways is essential to new types of C-H activation and functionalization in organic synthesis. Here, the authors show the activation of an olefinic C-H bond geminal to the directing group via four- to eight ...
