CuBr-catalyzed oxidative difluoromethylation of readily available tertiary amines with difluoroenol silyl ethers was performed under mild conditions to afford beta-amine-alpha,alpha-difluoro ketones.
An unprecedented, diversity-oriented strategy for the generation of 6,7-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[c,e]azepines and 5,6,7,8-tetrahydrodibenzo[c,e]azocines by a microwave-assisted copper-catalyzed intramolecular A(3)-coupling reaction is presented.
An efficient and practical scheme to synthesize 2-methoxyestradiol has been developed. The key step was the copper-mediated methoxylation using ethyl acetate as a co-catalyst to introduce a methoxyl group. These synthetic procedures of four steps from 17beta-estradiol as starting material
Cu-catalyzed decarboxylative alkynylation of quaternary α-cyano acetate salts with alkynyl bromides and alkynyl chlorides is described. This new reaction can be used for preparing functionalized butynenitrile derivatives.

The solvent-free, palladium-catalysed reaction of anilides with CuCl(2) in the presence or absence of copper acetate yields ortho-chlorinated anilides in good to excellent yields, even on a large scale (100 mmol). By contrast, the equivalent reactions with copper bromide, either
