Abstract
This review deals with synthesis and reactions of 2-acetylbenzofurans. Some of these reactions have been applied successfully to the synthesis of biologically important compounds. The main purpose of this review is to present a survey of the literature on 2-acetylbenzofurans chemistry and provides useful and up-to-date data for their applications since such compounds have not been previously reviewed.

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
