Cycloaddition reactions represent a cornerstone of synthetic organic chemistry, facilitating the formation of cyclic structures through concerted pericyclic processes. Traditionally explained via ...

Total synthesis of natural products via cycloaddition reactions brings together strategic bond construction with the precision of pericyclic processes to assemble complex molecular frameworks from ...

Creating rings, or carbocycles, with a six-carbon skeleton is an elementary exercise for synthetic organic chemists. Ask one how it’s done, and the chemist will inevitably point to the stalwart ...

Kana M. Sureshan is a full professor and Dean of planning at IISER Thiruvananthapuram. He received a Ph.D. degree from the University of Pune in 2002. Prof. Sureshan carried out his post-doctoral ...

Hot on the heels of reports of two skeletal-editing methods for adding nitrogen atoms into aromatic rings, chemists from the University of Münster are joining the atom-trading action. The team has ...

A controlled/“living” click polymerization method developed by researchers at Institute of Science Tokyo and Nagoya University enables precise chain-growth of AB-type monomers—traditionally limited to ...
