ABSTRACT
Phenols and their derivatives are the elementary building blocks for several classes of complex molecules that play essential roles in biological systems. Nature has devised methods to selectively couple phenolic compounds, and many efforts have been undertaken by chemists to mimic such coupling processes. A range of mechanisms can be involved and with well-studied catalysts, reaction outcomes in phenol-phenol oxidative coupling reactions can be predicted with a good level of fidelity. However, reactions with catalysts that have not been studied or that do not behave similarly to known catalysts can be hard to predict and control. This Perspective provides an overview of catalytic methods for the oxidative coupling of phenols, focusing on the last 10 years, and summarizes current challenges.
