The emergence of the C–H functionalization strategy in medicinal chemistry and drug discovery

TLDR
In this paper, the authors discuss the recent trends of C-H activation methodologies such as synthesis of medicinal scaffolds through a cascade of cascade-based activation and activation/annulation cascade, arylation for sp2sp2 and sp2-sp3 cross-coupling, borylation/silylation to introduce a functional linchpin for further manipulation, amination for N-heterocycles and hydrogen bond acceptors, C-h fluorination/fluoroalkylation to tune polarity and lipophilicity, peptide modification and
