Controlling various reactions by multiple weak interactions or soft forces has become an
widespread topic under supramolecular catalysis. This review has made a literature
collection that explores cooperative weak or noncovalent interactions. These are charge
transfer complexation, H-bonding, S-H…π, acid-base, cation- π, etc., towards C-hetero
bond formation reactions. This review article will discuss the specific reactivity of
chemical systems controlled by weak interactions.
