THE LATEST ADVANCEMENTS IN THE ACYLATION REACTIONS VIA CROSSDEHYDROGENATIVE COUPLING AND/OR METAL CATALYSTS

Abstract

There are quite many examples in the scientific literature regarding the acylationreactions, especially the metal-catalyzed acylation reactions, metal-free acylation reactions, metalcatalyzedacylation via cross-dehydrogenative coupling (CDC) reactions and metal-free acylationvia cross-dehydrogenative coupling (CDC) reactions. In this review paper, the most importantexamples of these domains were brought together and their mechanisms were exhibited in a clear,chronological format. Following these, the best example study towards green chemistry with ametal-free and high-yielding route was mentioned and discussed to demonstrate what has achievedin this field regarding the new acylation reaction mechanisms using the advantages of crossdehydrogenativecoupling (CDC) reactions. The most prominent studies regarding these domainshave been examined thoroughly and the latest progress in this field was explained in detail.
