Through the interplay of high-resolution scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) imaging/manipulation and density functional theory (DFT) calculations, we have demonstrated that an unprecedented selective aryl-aryl coupling via direct C-H bond activation can be successfully achieved on Cu(110). These findings present a simple and generalized route for preparing low dimensional carbon nanomaterials.

Split cross-coupling via Rh-catalysed activation of unstrained aryl-aryl bonds.

Constructive functionalization of unstrained aryl-aryl bonds has been a fundamental challenge in organic synthesis due to the inertness of these bonds. Here we report a split cross-coupling strategy that allows two-fold arylation with diverse aryl iodides through cleaving unstrained aryl-aryl bonds of common 2,2'-biphenols. The reaction is catalyzed by a rhodium complex and promoted by a removable phosphinite directing group and an organic reductant.

A Ni-catalyzed C-N bond activation of 2-pyridylpyridone and 1-(9-alkyl 9-purin-6-yl)pyridin-2(1)-one and coupling with arylboronic acid have been achieved. A unique feature of this reaction is the strategic activation of the bridging C-N bond and replacement of the pyridone unit with aryl groups using nickel catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura coupling. This provides an exciting new tool to build C-C bonds in the place of pyridones.

There has been a recent upsurge in research aimed at synthesizing inherently chiral molecules devoid of point, axial, planar and helical chiralities. We present herein our design and enantioselective synthesis of a series of inherently chiral macrocycles. These compounds, termed nor-heteracalixaromatics, feature a biaryl bond that replaces one of the aryl-heteroatom-aryl linkages found in classic heteracalix[4]aromatics.

Pentafluoropyridine was used as a molecular building block for the installation of aryl bromides, affording a series of multisubstituted halogenated arenes. This operationally simplistic methodology offers precise regioselectivity, ease of scalability, and high purity. F Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) served as a key diagnostic tool for structural characterization, given the sensitivity with various aryl bromine substitutions on the fluorinated pyridine ring.
