C-H functionalization has been established as an efficient way to generate molecular complexity. The formation of stereogenic carbon atoms by asymmetric C-H functionalization has seen tremendous progress over the past decade. More recently, the direct cata ...
Annulated pyridones are an importantscaffold found in many biologically active compounds. ANi(0)-catalyzed C−H functionalization of 2- and 4-pyridones is disclosed, providing access to annulatedpyridones via enantioselective intramolecular olefin hydro-ary ...
N-Heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) are the ligands of choice in a large variety of transformations entailing different transition metals. However, the number and variety of chiral NHCs suitable as stereo-controlling ligands in asymmetric catalysis remains limi ...

An enantioselective nickel(0)-catalyzedC Hfunc- tionalization of indoles and pyrroles that does not require the typical Lewis basic directing groups is disclosed. The reaction provides access to valuable tetrahydropyridoindoles and tetrahydroindolizines ...
