Abstract
In recent years the diterpene isosteviol, obtained via acid catalyzed rearrangement of stevioside, has gained growing interest by scientists. Its structural features and easy accessibility make isosteviol a useful starting material in organic synthesis. In this review, we group all existing modifications to the isosteviol moiety, ranging from biological transformation to rearrangements of the terpene skeleton. We will also discuss the known macrocycles based on isosteviol

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
