In this review paper, the most important examples of these domains were brought together and their mechanisms were exhibited in a clear, chronological format. Following these, the best example study towards green chemistry with a metal-free and high-yielding route was mentioned and discussed to demonstrate what has achieved in this field regarding the new acylation reaction mechanisms using the advantages of cross-dehydrogenative coupling (CDC) reactions. The most prominent studies regarding these domains have been examined thoroughly and the latest progress in this field was explained in detail. </span> </p>}, number={1}, publisher={Turkish Chemical Society}
