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

Carbonyls and alkenes, two of the most common functional groups in organic chemistry, generally do not react with one another. Now, a simple Lewis acid has been shown to catalyse metathesis between ...

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 ...

Researchers at Tokyo University of Science have developed a safer synthetic route to β-heteroatom-substituted diazo esters, ...

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 ...

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 ...

Watch the video to see some examples of how you can open a conversation and ask your colleagues for suggestions and ideas. Speaker: Addition is the process of adding 2 or more numbers or amounts ...
