Recently, Prof. Shou-Fei Zhu’s research group at Nankai University reported in CCS Chemistry a highly efficient and selective hydro-silylation reaction of asymmetric internal alkynes with ...

A collaborative academic-industry research team in the U.K. has devised a method to convert the terminal triple bond of an alkyne into a diester with the two ester groups at opposite ends of the ...

Mechanochemistry is a growing field for chemical reactions that proceed in the solid state in the absence, or with minuscule ...

Alkynes are prized among chemists for their uniquely reactive carbon-carbon triple bonds, which make them excellent coupling partners in click chemistry, for example. Now, chemists at the University ...

Achieving both high efficiency and high selectivity remains a central challenge in catalytic hydrogenation reactions, as ...

Increasing our understanding of cellular processes requires information about the types of biomolecules involved, their locations, and their interactions. This requires the molecules to be labeled ...

By combining a silver catalyst with a chiral sulfur reagent, researchers are now able to stereoselectively aminate ...
