The first handbook on this emerging field provides a comprehensive
overview of transition metal-catalyzed coupling reactions in the
presence of an oxidant. Following an introduction to the general concept
and mechanism of this reaction class, the team of authors presents
chapters on C-C cross-coupling reactions using organometallic partners,
C-Heteroatom bond forming reactions via oxidative couplings, and C-H
couplings via C-H activation. The text also covers such groundbreaking
topics as recent achievements in the fields of C-C and C-X bond
formation reactions as well as C-H activation involving oxidative
couplings.
With its novel and concise approach towards important building blocks in
organic chemistry and its focus on synthetic applications, this handbook
is of great interest to all synthetic chemists in academia and industry
alike.
