C-C Cross Couplings with 3d Base Metal Catalysts

This volume presents recent progress on 3d base metal catalyzed C-C cross coupling reactions. The contributions provide detailed discussions on the use of cheap metal catalysts such as Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, and Zn to construct C sp2 -C sp2 , C sp2 -C sp3 and C sp3 -C sp3 bonds with a variety of substrates. These non-noble metal catalyst have many advantages such as being inexpensive, having low toxicity and are environmentally benign. Therefore the use of cheap metal catalysts in organic synthesis has gained much attention in efforts to develop more sustainable synthetic green chemistry. Each chapter is written by international experts in the field and is a great resource for students, researchers and chemists working in industry to gain an overview on the latest developments.

Xiao-Feng Wu was born in China. He studied chemistry in Zhejiang Sci-Tech University (China), where he got his bachelor's degree in science (2007). In the same year, he went to Rennes 1 University (France) and earned his master's degree in 2009. Then he joined Matthias Beller's group in Leibniz-Institute for Catalysis (Germany), where he completes his PhD defense in January 2012. Subsequently he started his independent research at LIKAT and ZSTU where he was promoted to professor in 2013. In March 2017, Xiao-Feng defended his Habilitation successfully from Rennes 1 University (France). In 2020, he joined in Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics (DICP) and leading a research group on practical synthesis. Xiao-Feng has authored >500 publications in international journals, meanwhile he is also the editor or author of > 10 books. In 2019, Xiao-feng was invited to publish his Author Profile in Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2019, 58, 8624).
