Cocatalysis by pivalic acid or copper bromide allows a very fast, clean, and high-yielding palladium-catalyzed coupling of a large array of aryl, thienyl, and pyridyl halides with cyclic nitrones, inc
Photocatalytic coupling of aldehydes and silicon amine protocol (SLAP) reagents enables the simple, scalable synthesis of substituted morpholines, oxazepanes, thiomorpholines, and thiazepanes under co
A new catalytic aldol-type addition of cyclopropanecarboximides to aldehydes via iodide-mediated ring-opening is presented. The reaction was found to be catalyzed at 0 °C using either a Sc(OTf)3/NaI s
Ni/photoredox catalysis has emerged as a powerful platform for C(sp2)–C(sp3) bond formation. While many of these methods typically employ aryl bromides as the C(sp2) coupling partner, a variety of
