In 1994, Ye and McKervey published a paper in Chemical Reviews entitled “Organic
Synthesis with α-Diazocarbonyl Compounds”. 1 Our intention then was to draw attention to …

From its earliest observation as an unusual reaction only a half century ago, 1 the insertion
of a carbene into a carbonrhydrogen bond has attracted considerable interest because of its …

Organic chemists have always been fascinated by the cyclopropane subunit. 1 The smallest
cycloalkane is found as a basic structural element in a wide range of naturally occurring …

The demand for more efficient ways to construct complex chemical structures from simple,
readily available precursors continues unabated. A very attractive way to meet this demand …

The synthetic uses of organicdiazo compounds for carbenoid transformations have
undergone a renais-sance in recent years as a result of the development of new transition …

Aziridines are the nitrogen analogues of epoxides and exhibit similar reactivity patterns as
electrophilic reagents. 1 They undergo highly regio-and stereoselective transformations and …

Engineering enzymes capable of modes of activation unprecedented in nature will increase
the range of industrially important molecules that can be synthesized through biocatalysis …

Abstract The kinetics of (3+ 2) cycloaddition reactions of 18 different donor–acceptor
cyclopropanes with the same aldehyde were studied by in situ NMR spectroscopy …
