Aerobic Copper-Catalyzed Organic Reactions

TL;DR: The chemistry of copper is extremely rich because it can easily access Cu0, CuI, CuII, and CuIII oxidation states allowing it to act through one-electron or two-Electron processes, which feature confer a remarkably broad range of activities allowing copper to catalyze the oxidation and oxidative union of many substrates.

Copper-Catalyzed Aerobic Oxidative C ? H Functionalizations: Trends and Mechanistic Insights

TL;DR: This work has reported several recently reported Cu-catalyzed C-H oxidation reactions that feature substrates that are electron-deficient or appear unlikely to undergo single-electron transfer to copper(II), and evidence has been obtained for the involvement of organocopper(III) intermediates in the reaction mechanism.

Oxidative polymerization of phenols revisited

TL;DR: An overview on recent developments of oxidative polymerizations of phenols, particularly focusing on the coupling selectivity, can be found in this article, where three reaction mechanisms are discussed: coupling of free phenoxy radicals, coupling of the phenoxonium cation coordinated to catalyst complexes, and coupling through the phenoxide cation.

Metal-Catalyzed Oxidations of Organic Compounds in the Liquid Phase: A Mechanistic Approach

TL;DR: In this article, the subject of metal-catalyzed oxidations of organic compounds in the liquid phase, largely within a mechanistic framework, has been discussed and a better understanding of the catalytic action of metal complexes is essential from the view of increasing selectivity and efficiency.

Kupferkatalysierte aerobe oxidative C‐H‐Funktionalisierungen: Trends und Erkenntnisse zum Mechanismus

TL;DR: In this article, a set of new Cu-katalysierte C-H-Oxidationen with elektronenarmen substraten was given, of which one of them was a Kupfer(II)-Katalysator.
