The molecules of today—the medicines that cure diseases, the agrochemicals that protect
our crops, the materials that make life convenient—are becoming increasingly sophisticated …

The discovery of simple and efficient catalyst systems for the asymmetric
oxofunctionalization of hydrocarbons is a challenging task of catalytic chemistry. In this …

Supramolecular catalysis is a rapidly expanding discipline which has benefited from the
development of both homogeneous catalysis and supramolecular chemistry. The properties …

Low molecular weight synthetic peptides have been demonstrated to be effective catalysts
for an increasingly wide array of asymmetric transformations. In many cases, these peptide …

We present a reference, comprehensive, high-resolution, digital mosaic of ice motion in
Antarctica assembled from multiple satellite interferometric synthetic-aperture radar data …

Over the past few decades, asymmetric metal catalysis has become a major area in organic
chemistry. 1 This allows efficient access to a variety of important enantiomerically enriched …

Hydrogen peroxide is probably the best terminal oxidant after dioxygen with respect to
environmental and economic considerations. 1-4 Indeed, in certain circumstances, it is …

Barry Sharpless was awarded the 2001 Nobel Prize as a compliment to his great
contributions in the field of asymmetric epoxidation, which has been recognized as one of …

Aqueous H2O2 is an ideal oxidant, when coupled with a tungstate complex and a
quaternary ammonium hydrogensulfate as an acidic phase-transfer catalyst. It oxidizes …

Enzymes are the core for biological transformations in nature. Their structures and functions
have drawn enormous attention from biologists as well as chemists since last century. The …
