Abstract

Catalytic functionalization of unreactive C-H bond has become one of the most attractive research subjects in modern organic chemistry. To date, a variety of catalytic reactions involving C-H bond cleavage have been reported. In this review, we briefly survey the reported research with respect to efficient and selective transition-metal-catalyzed C-C bond formation via C-H bond cleavage.
