Abstract

Carbocatalysis is a heterogeneous metal-free catalytic technique of high potential for current and future synthetic processes. Carbocatalysts entail heterogeneous materials based on sp2/sp3 interconnected carbons decorated with oxygen functional groups, defects, and other heteroatom dopants. In this short review, we cover a wide range of different carbocatalyzed oxidative dehydrogenation reactions, with particular emphasis on liquid-phase transformations that are relevant for synthetic organic chemists.
