  • Ruthenium catalyzed direct arylation.
  • Ligand-free copper-catalyzed coupling reactions.
  • Amination and conjugate addition reactions.
  • Regioselective arylation and alkynylation by Suzuki-Miyaura and Sonogashira cross-coupling reactions.
  • Rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric 1,4-addition reactions.
  • Copper-catalyzed nitration reactions.
  • Regioselective Suzuki-Miyaura coupling and tandem palladium-catalyzed intramolecular aminocarbonylation and annulation.
  • Palladium catalyzed allylation reaction with allyl alcohols.
