Abstract:
The carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom bond formation reactions are considered as a fundamental tool in synthetic organic chemistry. They have been effectively utilized in the synthesis of medicinally significant molecules, agrochemicals and valuable compounds in material sciences. This has been primarily enabled by highly efficient protocols arising from divergent mechanistic pathways. In this personal account, we aim to discuss some recent advances in carbon-carbon or carbon-heteroatom bond formation reactions to which our group has actively contributed. More specifically, this record focuses on the use of unsaturated carbon compounds for the construction of C-C and C-X bonds.

Phase I Reactions: Oxidation of Carbon-Heteroatom and Miscellaneous Systems
In carbon-nitrogen systems, aliphatic and aromatic amines can undergo oxidative reactions. Secondary and tertiary amines, like those found in tricyclic antidepressants, can undergo N-dealkylation, a process that involves the oxidation of the alkyl group. In addition, oxidative...
