This review summarizes recent major advances in iron-catalysed C–H aminations of alkyl azides through iron–alkylnitrene/alkylimido intermediates to access various N-heterocycles.
Triazole-derived N-heterocyclic carbenes, available via click reactions, are versatile ligands for first-row transition metals, leading to complexes with attractive photochemical properties and catalytic activity, some defining the state-of-the-art.
Kinetic simulations of the NHC-catalyzed intramolecular Stetter reaction, where the enol ether intermediate plays a key role in the catalytic cycle.
This review provides an overview on recent developments in transition-metal-catalysed intermolecular saturated C(sp3)–N(sp3) bond-forming reactions. Moreover, limitations and perspectives on emerging opportunities in this area are also discussed.
