The selective conversion of alkenes into alcohols is a cornerstone of modern chemical synthesis, underpinning the production ...

Researchers at the Max-Planck-Institut für Kohlenforschung have unveiled a two-step alkene alkylation method using stable carboxylic acids and polar coupling. The approach overcomes a long-standing ...

Chemists at the Max-Planck-Institut für Kohlenforschung have developed a practical two-step method for alkylating alkenes via thianthrenation, addressing a long-standing synthetic challenge. This ...

A line structure of a molecule derived from the natural product 3-carene; the parent 3-carene structure, featuring a six-carbon ring with a double bond, is in blue and the added portion, featuring a ...

Installing directing groups, tiny signposts that tell a functional group where to attach to a molecule, is time consuming, but usually necessary. Ming Joo Koh and colleagues at the National University ...

It's an odd name for a neighborhood: Western Addition. The moniker is a nod to the Gold Rush days, when the city’s western limit was Larkin Street. Between 1851 and 1852, 13 blocks were added west of ...

Article Views are the COUNTER-compliant sum of full text article downloads since November 2008 (both PDF and HTML) across all institutions and individuals. These metrics are regularly updated to ...

1,2-Dicarbofunctionalization of alkenes has emerged as an efficient synthetic strategy for preparing substituted molecules by coupling readily available alkenes with electrophiles and/or nucleophiles.
