title: Mild C-H/C-C Activation by Z-Selective Cobalt Catalysis.
abstract: Cationic cobalt complexes enable unprecedented cobalt-catalyzed C-H/C-C functionalizations with unique selectivity features. The versatile cobalt catalyst proved broadly applicable, enabled efficient C-H/C-C cleavage at room temperature, and delivered Z-alkenes with excellent diastereocontrol.
