The formation of the CC bond is a major and important reaction in synthetic organic chemistry and frequently catalyzed by transition-metal catalysts. Among them, Kumada-Tamao-Corriu coupling reaction is providing a simple methodology and extensively employed in the art of organic synthesis. In this review, we try to highlight the recent advances in the applications of Kumada-Tamao-Corriu coupling reaction by updating of our previous review from 2012 up to date.
In this review, we try to highlight the recently reported stereoselective Michael conjugate additions of heteroatom nucleophiles to electron-deficient alkenes. The topic is divided based on the nature of the nucleophile employed (nitrogen-, oxygen-, sulfur-, or phosphorus-centered) and then subdivided to distinguish between catalyst-controlled and substrate/reagent-controlled methods which is necessary to achieve asymmetric synthesis.
This review highlights the advances in the use of oxindole as starting material in the synthesis of various organic compounds and drugs. The reactions can be performed on different reactive sites of oxindole which are the carbonyl group, C-3 site, nitrogen atom, and aromatic ring. In addition, the roles of oxindole in one-pot and domino reactions are discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
