“…Over the last 50 years, acetylacetonate (acac)-supported catalysts have proven capable of forming C–C bonds (via iron, − cobalt, nickel, , and copper − ), C–N bonds (via iron, cobalt, nickel, and copper), and C–O bonds (via iron, cobalt, , nickel, and copper) to highlight select metals. These examples illustrate the generality of late, first-row metal catalysis using β-diketonates in carbon bond-forming reactions, which have developed in parallel to the second- and third-row transition-metal catalysis.…”
