Abstract

This chapter surveys computational studies on heteroatom-assisted C–H activation at group 8 and 9 metal centres and will cover the literature since 2009. The chapter first considers work where the mechanism of the C–H activation step is the primary concern and categorizes these into intramolecular (with directing groups) and intermolecular processes. Studies on C–H activation and functionalization will be presented, classified in terms of the nature of the functionalization process (oxidative coupling to form heterocycles, alkenylation and amination).

Notes

  1. 1.

    High-level wave function methods promise the accurate treatment of these long-range electron correlation effects; however, such methods are still too computationally demanding for routine use on large model systems.
