- . Catalysis is the next area that is gaining an ever-increasing practical focus in the studies on the use of C60 and fullerene-containing materials [51]. A comparative analysis of the activity of fullerene-containing compounds and noble metals as dehydrogenation catalysts allows to consider the former as
- the substrate on two sites, namely a metal and a fullerene [53]. This allows to level out some negative features that are characteristic of heterogeneous catalysts. Thus, in dehydrogenation processes, catalytic amounts of a coordinated fullerene in metal fullerides act as a hydrogen acceptor in

- recently obtained by the dimsyl anion-promoted double acylation of enones with benzils, followed by dehydrogenation of the resulting alkanes in one pot [16]. Moreover, if the reaction of cyclic 1,2-diketone I (G = C(O)R1) with activated alkenes may take place similarly, this reaction could be utilized as a

- /bjoc.13.162 Abstract Nitrogen heteroarenes form an important class of compounds which can be found in natural products, synthetic drugs, building blocks etc. Among the diverse strategies that were developed for the synthesis of nitrogen heterocycles, oxidative dehydrogenation is extremely effective
- . This review discusses various oxidative dehydrogenation strategies of C–C and C–N bonds to generate nitrogen heteroarenes from their corresponding heterocyclic substrates. The strategies are categorized under stoichiometric and catalytic usage of reagents that facilitate such transformations. The
- application of these strategies in the synthesis of nitrogen heteroarene natural products and synthetic drug intermediates are also discussed. We hope this review will arouse sufficient interest among the scientific community to further advance the application of oxidative dehydrogenation in the synthesis of
