Abstract
Epoxide hydrolase (EH) is an interesting tool in different processes of organic chemistry. In this review the different available techniques to improve the properties (activity, stability and selectivity) and to enhance the applicability of this enzyme at a large scale will be studied. In particular, the review focuses on immobilization techniques and different examples are presented using different methodologies.

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
