Journal ArticleDOI
Transition-metal-catalyzed hydrogen-transfer annulations: access to heterocyclic scaffolds.
TL;DR: Recent advances in this field with respect to the annulations of alcohols with various nucleophilic partners, thus leading to the formation of heterocyclic scaffolds are highlighted herein.
Journal ArticleDOI
Iron-catalyzed dehydrogenation reactions and their applications in sustainable energy and catalysis
Ekambaram Balaraman,Ekambaram Balaraman,Avanashiappan Nandakumar,Garima Jaiswal,Garima Jaiswal,Manoj K. Sahoo,Manoj K. Sahoo +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors focus on the recent development of iron-based dehydrogenation reactions of fundamentally important feedstock, as a route to sustainable chemical synthesis and energy storage applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ni‐Catalyzed α‐Alkylation of Unactivated Amides and Esters with Alcohols by Hydrogen Auto‐Transfer Strategy
Siba P. Midya,Jagannath Rana,Jayaraman Pitchaimani,Avanashiappan Nandakumar,Vedichi Madhu,Ekambaram Balaraman +5 more
TL;DR: A transition-metal-catalyzed borrowing hydrogen/hydrogen auto-transfer strategy allows the utilization of feedstock alcohols as an alkylating partner, which avoids the formation of stoichiometric salt waste and enables a direct and benign approach for the construction of C-N and C-C bonds.
Journal ArticleDOI
Manganese-Catalyzed Direct Conversion of Ester to Amide with Liberation of H2
TL;DR: The present protocol provides an atom-economical and sustainable route for the synthesis of amides from esters by employing an earth-abundant manganese salt and inexpensive phosphine-free tridentate ligand.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pd(II)-Catalyzed gamma-C(sp3)–H alkynylation of amides: selective functionalization of R chains of amides R1C(O)NHR
TL;DR: The first example of palladium(ii)-catalyzed alkynylation of an unactivated gamma C(sp3)-H bond of alkyl amides (cyclic, linear, and amino acids) is reported.
