The pyridine core is a crucial component in numerous FDA-approved drugs and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulated agrochemicals. It also plays significant role ligands for transition metals, alkaloids, catalysts, various organic materials with diverse properties, making it one of the most important structural frameworks. However, despite its significance, direct selective functionalization still relatively underdeveloped due to electron-deficient nature strong coordinating ability nitrogen. Among variety synthetic transformation, C-H bond straightforward atom economical approach it's advantageous late-stage containing drugs. In recent years, innovative strategies regioselective pyridines azines have emerged, offering benefits such as high regioselectivity, mild conditions, enabling transformations that were challenging traditional methods. This review emphasizes latest advancements meta para-C-H through approaches, including phosphonium salts, photocatalytic methods, temporary de-aromatization, Minisci-type reactions, metal-catalyzed activation techniques. We discuss advantages limitations these current methods aim inspire further progress this field.
