The typical reactivity of these compounds is the addition-type reactions. A plethora of transformations and studies were reported in the literature by many research groups. The focus of this review is to organize and describe the most recent synthetic transformations of non-activated alkenes in organic synthesis. Therefore, it is divided into five sections corresponding to each type of the products obtained: synthesis of fluoro-, chloro- and bromo-compounds; synthesis of alkyl/vinyl/aryl/heteroaryl compounds; synthesis of phospho/sulfur/silyl/cyano-compounds; synthesis of amine/amide/oxygenated compounds and synthesis of other functionalized compounds.</span></p> Elsevier Ltd.
