Abstract
This review will update the use of organodilithium intermediates in synthetic organic chemistry, paying special attention to their use in carbon-carbon bond forming reactions, in which two equal or different electrophiles are introduced (at once or in a two-step process) in the structure of the starting material. This methodology allows the generation of polyfunctionalized organic molecules in a very direct manner through only one synthetic operation: tandem lithiation-reaction with electrophiles.
Keywords: electrophiles, deprotonation, transmetallation reactions, geometries, x-ray diffraction

Catalytic C-H bond activation as a tool for functionalization of heterocycles
The major topic is the functionalization of heterocycles through catalyzed C-H bond activation. The strategies based on C-H activation not only provide straightforward formation of C-C or C-X bonds but, more importantly, allow for the avoidance of pre-functionalization of one or two of the cross-coupling partners. The beneficial impact of ...read more
