Abstract

Graphical abstract: Highlights: Recent syntheses of natural products via Rh-catalyzed CH insertions are described. The key steps are chemo-, regio-, and stereoselective Rh-catalyzed CH insertions. Direct CH bond functionalizations are one of the most efficient synthetic methods. Summary: Direct CH bond functionalization reactions promise to be among the most efficient methods for the synthesis of organic molecules. This review focuses on recent syntheses of natural products via chemo-, regio-, and stereoselective Rh-catalyzed CH insertion reactions.
