Our group is interested in developing more sustainable strategies for site selective C–H functionalization, using either reversibly covalent or non-covalent interactions. This talk will feature our work using CO<sub>2</sub> as a transient directing group to enable C–H activation-initiated cascade reactions, halogenation (using native amines as directing groups), and if time permits some of our new work on developing ligands for C–H functionalization through non-covalent interactions.
