Abstract A widely appreciated principle is that all reactions are fundamentally reversible. Observing reversible transition metal-catalyzed reactions, particularly those that include the cleavage of C–C bonds, are more challenging. The development of the palladium- and nickel-catalyzed carboiodination reactions afforded access to the syn- and anti-diastereomers of the iodo-dihydroisoquinolone products. Using these substrates, an extensive study investigating the catalytic reversibility of the C–C bond formation using a different palladium catalyst was undertaken. A combination of experimental and computational studies led to the discovery of a variety of new methodologies and concepts key to understanding the process of reversible C–C bond formations.

Two types of transition-metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions, which both lead to the formation of carbon-heteroatom bonds, are considered: RX + E-H and E-X + RM. The potential of addition reactions of E-H or E-E to double or triple bond in C-E bond formation is also demonstrated.

In the last few years, transition metal-mediated reactions have joined the toolbox of chemists working in the field of fluorination for Life-Science oriented research. The successful execution of transition metal-catalyzed carbon–fluorine bond formation has become a landmark achievement in fluorine chemistry. This rapidly growing research field has been the subject of some excellent reviews. Our approach focuses exclusively on transition metal-catalyzed reactions that allow the introduction of –CFH2, –CF2H, –C n F2 n +1 and –SCF3 groups onto sp² carbon atoms. Transformations are discussed according to the reaction-type and the metal employed. The review will not extend to conventional non-transition metal methods to these fluorinated groups.

This account reviews C-C bond formation reactions using alkyl fluorides mostly focusing on the transition-metal-catalyzed reactions. These reactions proceed efficiently under mild conditions by the combined use of Grignard reagents and transition-metal catalysts, such as Ni, Cu, and Zr. It is proposed that ate complex intermediates formed by the reaction of these transition metals with Grignard reagents play important roles as the active catalytic species. Organoaluminun reagents react directly with alkyl fluorides in nonpolar solvents at room temperature to form C-C bonds. These studies demonstrate the practical usefulness of alkyl fluorides in C-C bond formation reactions and provide a promising method for the construction of carbon frameworks employing alkyl fluorides. The scope and limitations, as well as reaction pathways, are discussed.

Amination and amidation of aryl compounds using a transition-metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction typically involves prefunctionalization or preoxidation of either partner. In recent years, a new class of transition-metal-catalyzed cross-dehydrogenative coupling reaction has been developed for the direct formation of aryl C–N bonds. This short review highlights the substantial progress made for ortho-C–N bond formation via transition-metal-catalyzed chelation-directed aryl C–H activation and gives an overview of the challenges that remain for directed meta- and para-selective reactions.1 Introduction2 Intramolecular C–N Cross-Dehydrogenative Coupling2.1 Nitrogen Functionality as Both Coupling Partner and Directing Group2.2 Chelating-Group-Directed Intramolecular C–N Bond Formation3 Intermolecular C–N Cross-Dehydrogenative Coupling3.1 ortho-C–N Bond Formation3.1.1 Copper-Catalyzed Reactions3.1.2 Other Transition-Metal-Catalyzed Reactions3.2 meta- and para-C–N Bond Formation4 C–N Cross-Dehydrogenative Coupling of Acidic C–H Bonds5 Conclusions

Carbon-carbon bond formation by transition metal-catalyzed C–H activation has become an important strategy to fabricate new bonds in a rapid fashion. Despite the pharmacological importance of <i>ortho</i>-arylbenzylamines, however, effective <i>ortho</i>-C–C bond formation from C–H bond activation of free primary and secondary benzylamines using Pd<sup>II</sup> remains an outstanding challenge. Presented herein is a new strategy for constructing <i>ortho</i>-arylated primary and secondary benzylamines mediated by carbon dioxide (CO<sub>2</sub>). The use of CO<sub>2</sub> is critical to allowing this transformation to proceed under milder conditions than previously reported, and that are necessary to furnish free amine products that can be directly used or elaborated without the need for deprotection. In cases where diarylation is possible, a chelate effect is demonstrated to facilitate selective monoarylation.

Phosphines are widely used ligands in transition metal-catalyzed reactions. Arylphosphines, such as triphenylphosphine, were among the first phosphines to show broad utility in catalysis. Beginning in the late 1990s, sterically demanding and electronrich trialkylphosphines began to receive attention as supporting ligands. These ligands were found to be particularly effective at promoting oxidative addition in cross-coupling of aryl halides. With electron-rich, sterically demanding ligands, such as tri-tertbutylphosphine, coupling of aryl bromides could be achieved at room temperature. More importantly, the less reactive, but more broadly available, aryl chlorides became accessible substrates. Tri-tert-butylphosphine has become a privileged ligand that has found application in a wide range of late transition-metal catalyzed coupling reactions. This success has led to the use of numerous monodentate trialkylphosphines in cross-coupling reactions. This review will discuss the general properties and features of monodentate trialkylphosphines and their application in cross-coupling reactions of C–X and C–H bonds.

: Oxabenzonorbornadiene (OBD) is a useful synthetic intermediate which can be readily activated by transition metal complexes with great face selectivity due to its dual-faced nature and intrinsic angle strain on the alkene. To date, the understanding of transition-metal catalyzed reactions of OBD itself has burgeoned; however, this has not been the case for unsymmetrical OBDs. Throughout the development of these reactions, the nature of C1-substituent has proven to have a profound effect on both the reactivity and selectivity of the outcome of the reaction. Upon substitution, different modes of reactivity arise, contributing to the possibility of multiple stereo-, regio-, and in extreme cases, constitutional isomers which can provide unique means of constructing a variety of synthetically useful cyclic frameworks. To maximize selectivity, an understanding of bridgehead substituent effects is crucial. To that end, this review outlines hitherto reported examples of bridgehead substituent effects on the chemistry of unsymmetrical C1-substituted OBDs.
