As a consequence of their propensity towards aromatization, quinone methides (QMs) and
indole imine methides (IIMs) are versatile intermediates in organic synthesis. Although QMs …

The asymmetric cross-coupling reaction is developed as a straightforward strategy toward 1,
1-diaryl alkanes, which are a key skeleton in a series of natural products and bioactive …

para‐Quinone methides (p‐QMs) are naturally occurring molecules that have been finding
increasing synthetic applications in the last few years. The presence of two electronically …

Quinone methides (QMs) are highly reactive compounds that have been defined as “elusive”
intermediates, or even as a “synthetic enigma” in organic chemistry. Indeed, there were just …

ortho-Quinone methides have emerged recently as useful electrophiles in metal-free
catalysis. New strategies to access these species in situ that are compatible with …
