Abstract

Cyclometalation via C–H bond activation is an attractive area of organometallic chemistry, which provides a mild route for constructing a new M–C bond.(1) This process has been incorporated into the development of a new methodology in catalytic synthetic chemistry and envisioned great progress in this field.(2) In contrast with the well-known oxidative addition of a C–H bond catalyzed by late-transition metals, using rare-earth metals as catalysts in catalytic synthetic ...
