Abstract
Magnesium in methanol(Mg / MeOH) system is an extremely versatile, efficient, economical and convenient reducing agent for various reactions useful for organic synthesis such as reductive cyclization, reductive elimination, reductive cleavage, reduction of a conjugated double bond, desulfonylation, and reduction of various functional groups. This comprehensive review is intended to highlight the use of Mg / MeOH in each of these organic transformations.

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
