The article discusses a study which discovered aryl substituted unsaturated carboxylic acids'
oxidative rearrangement for the facile access of furanones. It states that the study conducted …

Vicinal diamines constitute one the most important functional motif in organic chemistry
because of its wide occurrence in a variety of biological and pharmaceutical molecules. We …

The growing use of pyridine stabilized polycationic I (III) regents ([PhI (Pyr) 2] 2+) as versatile
oxidizing agents is reviewed. Currently the number of examples describing the use of these …

Hypervalent iodine (III) compounds of the general structure ArIL2 are widely used as
oxidizing agents for a variety of applications across both organic and inorganic chemistry …

Aminated nitrogen heterocycles are valuable motifs across numerous chemical industries,
perhaps most notably in small molecule drug discovery. While numerous strategies for …

Reactions between N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) and the trityl cation,[Ph3C]+, give
covalent adducts of type [NHC–CPh3]+ and/or [NHC–C6H5–CPh2]+. EPR spectroscopy, UV …

Herein, we disclose cyclic (alkyl)(amino) carbenes (CAACs) to be one‐electron reductants
under the formation of a transient radical cation as indicated by EPR spectroscopy. The …

The recently discovered I (III) reagent NO2-C6H4-I (OTf) 2 is found to rapidly react with
hydride sources, including HSiEt3 and relatively hydridic C–H precursors. These represent …

Despite a recent proposal on the mechanism of a single‐electron transfer (SET) process
between tritylium and 2, 6‐bis (diisopropylphenyl) imidazol‐2‐ylidene (IPr) based on …

The site-selective and chemoselective functionalization of alcohols in complex polyols
remains a formidable synthetic challenge. Whereas significant advancements have been …
