Transition metal-catalyzed Cvinyl–Cvinyl bond formation via double Cvinyl–H bond activation

Transition metal-catalyzed oxidative dehydrogenative coupling reactions of Caryl-H bonds with Cvinyl-H bonds to generate a Caryl-Cvinyl bonds have been well developed in recent decades. However, only a few studies have focused on the direct Cvinyl-Cvinyl bond formation via double Cvinyl-H bond activation. Recent developments in this active area have been highlighted in this tutorial review.
