7. Link activation

Activating the $C — H$ bond is a formidable problem for the organic chemist, who has to use sometimes long and complicated circuitous routes to achieve it.

The oxidative addition of the H ₂ molecule and the neighboring electronegativities of C and H suggest the possibility of oxidative addition of the bond $C — H$ . Examples are few and far between. We need to start by finding a molecule that can exhibit an electron...
