Strategic evolution in transition metal-catalyzed directed C-H bond activation and future directions

摘要

In the field of C-H bond functionalization chemistry, directed C-H bond activation strategies are highly appreciated due to the high efficiency and selectivity of such reactions towards a certain type of C-H bond. Considering extraordinarily rapid progress in directed C-H bond functionalization reactions, we summarize the strategic evolution of directed C-H bond activation chemistry in this review. We feel that this review would be of particular interest to scientists who are interested in progress made in the area of directed C-H bond functionalization, which could stimulate new areas of research regarding this significant topic.
