| Abstract: | An overview of the recent bibliography in the transition‐metal‐catalyzed hydroxylation of aryl derivatives is presented. Two reaction protocols are considered: 1) C? H activation/hydroxylation and, 2) cross‐coupling hydroxylation of aryl halides. The achievements and limitations for both procedures are described taking into consideration different metal catalyst/oxidant combinations. |
