Abstract We cover the achievements and thought process that have emerged as a result of the recent use of iron salts as catalysts for the oxidative coupling, addition, and functionalization on constructing C−C bonds, C−N bonds, C−O bonds, C−S bonds, and C−P bonds. These transformations concomitantly require a stoichiometric oxidant to activate the catalyst: The low‐cost and ubiquity of peroxides is often used as a result of their high oxidative reactivity, resulting in the widespread utilizations of iron catalysis through the initiation of radical processes. Here, we summarize the formation of diverse chemical bonds by using iron oxidative catalysis strategies, including 1) the oxidative coupling strategy and 2) the oxidative addition and functionalization strategy. The oxidative coupling strategy focuses on the formation of one chemical bond in a single reaction, whereas the oxidative addition and functionalization strategy includes the transformations that construct at least two chemical bonds.
