Small molecule activation is one of the Holy Grials in Chemistry. Indeed, the importance of these transformations is globally recognized due to their key role in climate change or energy storage. Molecules such as O2, H2, H2O, N2, CO2 or CH4 are abundant, readily accessible and potential renewable chemical feedstocks. However, their activation is problematic […]

Formation of C-C bond bonds is one of the most remarkable transformations in organic chemistry, and it has received special attention since the second half of the 20th century. By the late 1970s, Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions emerged as a powerful tool for the construction of C-C bonds, providing new ways to build molecules. Indeed, in […]
