Abstract
The last fifteen years have seen the Pd-catalysed cross-coupling of organosilanes and organogermanes developed to the point where organosilane cross-couplings in particular are emerging as viable and attractive alternatives to the Stille and Suzuki reactions. In this review, the development of these group 14 cross-coupling reactions is overviewed and the current state-of-the-art assessed. Moreover, some mechanistic considerations are presented that, it is hoped, may encourage efforts to overcome remaining challenges in this important area.

Exploring the Role of Chemical Graph Theory in Advancing Current Organic Synthesis
Organic synthesis is a fundamental discipline in chemistry, crucial for the creation of complex molecules with diverse applications in pharmaceuticals, materials science, and beyond. However, the process of designing efficient synthetic routes for target molecules remains challenging. Chemical graph theory, a branch of theoretical chemistry, offers powerful tools for understanding ...read more
Photoswitches for Molecular Recognition
This Special Issue would cover the hot topics on synthesis and chemical and photophysical characterization of new photoswitchable derivatives and their applications on molecular recognition of metabolites and biological active compounds, both in physiological medium and in living cells. Photoswitches are compounds that can change their conformation or properties in ...read more
