Abstract
This review focuses on the catalytic activity of the organic bicyclic amidine base, 1,8-diazabicyclo [5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU). It is available commercially, cheap and a homogenous catalyst. It has been used widely in a variety of reactions viz. elimination, esterification, cyclisation, condensation, multicomponent reactions etc.
Keywords: Cycloaddition, DBU, isomerization, MCRs.

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
