The transition metal-catalyzed C–H bond functionalization of azoles has emerged as one of the most important strategies to decorate these biologically important scaffolds. Despite significant progress in the C–H functionalization of various heteroarenes, the regioselective alkylation and alkenylation of azoles are still arduous transformations in many cases. This review covers recent advances in the direct C–H alkenylation, alkylation and alkynylation of azoles utilizing transition metal-catalysis. Moreover, the limitations of different strategies, chemoselectivity and regioselectivity issues will be discussed in this review.

Transition-metal catalysis is out-grown from dry-boxes where the use of inert gas atmosphere and the exclusion of moisture have been essential. Such a restriction undoubtedly imposes limitations in the application of these reactions in organic synthesis and in the recycling of the catalysts. This article discusses some recent advances of rhodium-catalyzed carbon­carbon bond formations under the natural conditions of air and water.

Ethoxycarbonyl cyanohydrins and O-acyl cyanohydrins are examples of O-protected cyanohydrins in which the protecting group presents an electrophilic center, contributing to additional reaction pathways. The first section of this review describes recent advances on the synthesis of O-ethoxycarbonyl and O-acyl protected cyanohydrins. Reactions using KCN or alkyl cyanoformates as the cyanide ion source are described, as well as organic and transition metal catalysis used in their preparation, including asymmetric cyanation. In a second part, transformations, and synthetic applications of O-ethoxycarbonyl/acyl cyanohydrins are presented. A variety of structures has been obtained starting from such protected cyanohydrins and, in particular, the synthesis of oxazoles, 1,4-diketones, 1,3-diketones, 2-vinyl-2-cyclopentenones through various methods are discussed.

Functionalized cyclic organic carbonates have emerged as valuable building blocks for the construction of interesting and useful molecules upon decarboxylation under transition metal catalysis in recent years. With suitable catalytic system, the development of chemo-, regio-, stereo- and enantioselective methods for the synthesis of useful and interesting compounds has advanced greatly. On the basis of previous research work on this topic, this short review will highlight the synthetic potential of cyclic carbonates under transition metal catalysis in last two years. 1 Introduction 2 Transition metal catalyzed decarboxylation of vinyl cyclic carbonates 3 Zwitterionic enolate chemistry based on transition metal catalysis 4 Decarboxylation of alkynyl cyclic carbonates and dioxazolones 5 Conclusions and perspectives
