TY - JOUR T1 - Recent advances in iron catalyzed reactions in organic synthesis AU - Ullah Khan, Farman AU - Hameed, Shahid PY - 2020 DA - December JF - Journal of Ongoing Chemical Research JO - jocr PB - Said NADEEM WT - DergiPark SN - 2651-4338 SP - 42 EP - 52 VL - 5 IS - 2 LA - en AB - The transition metal catalyzed reactions are widely developed in current years. Most of the transition metals are expensive and are not easily available like; Gold (Au), Iridium (Ir), Palladium (Pd), Platinum (Pt), Ruthenium (Ru), Rhodium (Rh) etc. Iron is one of the highly plentiful, cheap and easily available transition metals. It has been consistently used in organic synthesis nowadays. In this review we have described the role of iron in organic reactions like C-C, C-O, C-N, C-S and N-S bond forming reactions. This review highlights the advancements in iron based organocatalysis from 2005 to 2020.
