C–H functionalization has been called the holy grail of synthetic organic chemistry. The reliable and predictable conversion of a C–H into a C–C, C–N, C–O or C–X bond in a selective and controlled fashion represents a host of benefits in terms of step economy and waste reduction, driving the current energetic pace of research in this area.

C–H functionalization not only expands the number of sites that can be targeted in a given molecule, multiplying the opportunities for elaborating it into a more complex product, but it also allows for completely different kinds of chemical bonds to be targeted, often with high chemoselectivity.
