Abstract
This review describes the applications of carbohydrate-derived ligands in enantioselective transition metal catalysis since 2008 year. The areas of hydrogenation with molecular hydrogen and transfer hydrogenation, allylic substitution, 1,4-conjugate addition, epoxidation, cyclopropanation and addition to carbon-heteroatom double bonds are covered.
Keywords: Addition, carbohydrates, catalysis, enantioselectivity, hydrogenation, transition metals.

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
