We present here the distal-C-H activation/functionalization of biphenyl scaffolds using aliphatic nitrile templates. The approach has demonstrated good to exclusive selectivities over a wide range of olefination and acetoxylation substrates....

Herein, we report the -C-H olefination of arylmethanesulfonates aided by a potentially versatile aliphatic nitrile-directing group under microwave irradiation conditions with fair to very good yields and good to outstanding...

Herein, we report the first microwave-assisted remote-C-H functionalization aided by a simple nitrile directing template. Notably, the present protocol showed a broad substrate scope enabling -C-H arylation, acetoxylation, and cyanation....

Recent research has been focused on the transition metal-catalyzed reactions. Herein we have developed nickel-catalyzed synthesis of 3-aryl benzofurans from -alkenyl phenols intramolecular dehydrogenative coupling. Notably, simple O gas served...

This article describes the development of a new aliphatic nitrile-template-directed remote -selective C-H olefin functionalization reaction of arenes. Remarkably, unlike the previous reports, this process is feasible at room temperature...

Herein, we present -C-H olefination on derivatives of phenylacetic acids by tethering with a simple nitrile-based template through palladium catalysis. Notably, the versatility of the method is evaluated with a...
