Abstract:Transposition reactions, i.e., switching the position of functional groups, are a powerful tool for molecular editing. The transposition of a halogen atom attached to an aromatic ring, referred to as the halogen dance reaction, has great potential in the fields of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, natural products, and functional materials. However, the substrate scope of this reaction is limited owing to the intrinsic difficulty in facilitating multiple catalytic cycles involving several aryllithium species. In… Show more
Recent advances in catalytic C–H bond activation remote from a substituent, capable of readily producing 1,3-disubstituted ferrocene derivatives, are discussed.
