Abstract

Abstract : The engaging prospect of mild and selective C−H activation has attracted many families of catalysts to join this quest. Metal‐organic frameworks (MOFs) may play one of the leading roles in the story. Small and finely dispersed palladium nanoparticles supported in MOFs catalyze the halogenation of aromatic C−H bonds efficiently and under some of the mildest conditions reported to date. Furthermore, subtle changes in the reaction conditions results in high control over the selectivity. More information can be found in the Full Paper by B. Martín‐Matute et al. onpage 3729 ff.
