Abstract

Abstract : Redox active ligands are an integral part of many biological events and significant natural processes. Transformations assisted by such ligands gather the limelight owing to their excellent activity and selectivity towards the transformation of organic functionalities as well as activation of small molecules. The past few decades have seen an increasing demand of the field featuring its significance as the concept derived products find applications in chemical, pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries. Besides, the mechanistic insights allow for a grass root understanding of the underlining chemistry. The present article aims to highlight bond activations platformed on this concept by citing a few recent examples. Abstract : The phenomenon of redox activity has remained a pivotal concept underlining various electronic processes. This minireview focuses on the diverse bond activations mediated by redox active ligands that have been documented recently.
