Simple catalysts that use atom-economical oxygen as the terminal oxidant to accomplish selective ortho–ortho, ortho-para, or para–para homo-couplings of phenols are described.
Abstract
Simple catalysts that use atom-economical oxygen as the terminal oxidant to accomplish selective ortho–ortho, ortho–para, or para–para homo-couplings of phenols are described. In addition, chromium salen catalysts have been discovered as uniquely effective in the cross-coupling of different phenols with high chemo- and regioselectivity.

Mn-Catalyzed Highly Efficient Aerobic Oxidative Hydroxyazidation of Olefins: A Direct Approach to β-Azido Alcohols

TL;DR: A DFT calculation indicates that Mn catalyst plays key dual roles as an efficient catalyst for the generation of azido radical and a stabilizer for peroxyl radical intermediate, which provides a novel approach to high value-added β-azido alcohols.

Source of Selectivity in Oxidative Cross‐Coupling of Aryls by Solvent Effect of 1,1,1,3,3,3‐Hexafluoropropan‐2‐ol

TL;DR: The addition of water or methanol to the electrolyte allows a shift of oxidation potentials in a specific range, creating suitable systems for selective anodic cross-coupling reactions, and this driving force for selectivity in oxidative coupling might also explain previous findings using HFIP and hypervalent iodine reagents.

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.
