A review is presented of synthetic methods for the preparation of biaryls by the rhodium-catalyzed C-H bond arylation of arenes with aryl halides (C-H/ C-X couplings), arylmetal reagents (C-H/C-M couplings) and arenes (C-H/C-H couplings), with an emphasis on postulated mechanisms
Rhodium-catalyzed C-C bond formation via heteroatom-directed C-H bond activation.
Chemical Society reviews, 36(7), 1109-1119 (2007-06-20)
This tutorial review describes the reactions of the electron-rich heterocycles pyrrole, furan, indole and benzofuran with copper and rhodium carbenoids. Two main reaction pathways are possible, involving either a concerted non-synchronous cyclopropanation or zwitterionic intermediates. A diverse range of products
Chemical Society reviews, 38(11), 3072-3081 (2009-10-23)
In this tutorial review, the rhodium(II)-catalyzed domino reactions of alpha-diazo carbonyl compounds are summarized. The article will emphasize some of the more recent synthetic applications of the rhodium carbenoid cyclization/cycloaddition domino cascade for alkaloid synthesis. The many structurally diverse and
Chemical Society reviews, 40(4), 1857-1869 (2011-03-02)
This tutorial review presents a description of the controlling elements of intermolecular C-H functionalization by means of C-H insertion by donor/acceptor rhodium carbenes. These rhodium carbenes, readily derived from the combination of diazo compounds with dirhodium(ii) catalysts, are sufficiently reactive
