  • The Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling is a mainstay of organic synthesis, allowing carbon-carbon bond formation between a variety of coupling partners. Here, the authors report a decarbonylative process, whereby alkyl or aryl esters can be coupled with organoboron compounds using nickel catalysts.

  • The idea of carbon–hydrogen functionalization, in which C–H bonds are modified at will, represents a paradigm shift in the standard logic of organic synthesis; here, dirhodium catalysts are used to achieve highly site-selective, diastereoselective and enantioselective C–H functionalization of n-alkanes and terminally substituted n-alkyl compounds.

  • Methods to functionalize inert C–H bonds are a critical focus of synthetic organic chemistry. In this work the authors use computations and experiments to uncover the mechanisms of palladium-catalysed C–H lactonizations in aromatic carboxylic acids, and explain the origin of an observed preference for functionalization of a C(sp3)–H bond over a C(sp2)–H bond in a recent report.

  • Catalyst-controlled site selectivity without relying on the influence of a directing group within the substrate is a major challenge in C–H functionalization. Now a catalyst is described that selectively functionalizes non-activated primary C–H bonds in the presence of a variety of other C–H bonds and functional groups.

  • This Primer provides an overview of the best practices for C–H activation as well as key advances in asymmetric, photoinduced and electrocatalytic-mediated catalysis for this synthetic platform. An overview of how C–H activation facilitates the synthesis of molecules such as structurally complex (bio)polymers and drugs is provided along with the current challenges and priorities for the next decade.
