This protocol describes the catalytic asymmetric formation of all-carbon quaternary centers—a distinctive feature of many natural products and pharmaceuticals—via conjugate addition of alkylzirconium ...

image: The first iron-catalyzed phosphinoylazidation of alkenes under relatively mild reaction conditions affording compounds containing nitrogen and phosphorus is reported. This method is practically ...

Radical addition–elimination reactions are a major pathway for transformation of unsaturated hydrocarbons. In the gas phase, these reactions involve formation of a transient strongly bound ...

Complete combustion of alkenes produces carbon dioxide and water, provided there is a plentiful supply of oxygen. Incomplete combustion of alkenes occurs where oxygen is limited and produces water, ...

As a footnote to Mark M. Green’s letter on how to make organic chemistry “be part of understanding the wider world, to be worth knowing” (Jan. 2, 2023, page 3), I wish to illustrate my approach to “a ...
