“…The use of directing groups with transition‐metal catalysis enables regioselective C−H activation and functionalization under mild conditions, and has been explored extensively with Pd, [8] Rh, [9] Ir, [10] Ni, [11,12] Co, [12,13] and Fe [12,14] and Mn [15] . In this context, ruthenium has emerged as a versatile transition metal catalyst enabling arylation, [16–18] alkenylation [19–21] and alkylation reactions [22–26] . A wide range of nitrogen‐based directing group‐containing substrates and biologically active molecules can be functionalized using various electrophilic coupling partners, including halides, triflates and ammonium salts, [23,24,27] all under mild conditions.…”
