Synthetic organic chemistry experienced a significant advance in the last quarter of the 20th
century with the advent of the transition-metal catalyzed cross-coupling reactions. The utility …

The resolution, line edge roughness, and sensitivity (RLS) trade-off has fundamentally
limited the lithographic performance of chemically amplified resists. Production of next …

In the development of transition metal catalysis, the process of ligand screening, where an
optimal ligand for a reaction of interest is identified from a large variety of candidate …

The palladium‐catalyzed solid‐state C− N cross‐coupling of carbazoles with aryl halides via
a high‐temperature ball‐milling technique has been reported. This reaction allowed simple …

Carbon–nitrogen (C–N) bond-forming cross-coupling reactions catalyzed by palladium-
based catalysts, the so-called Buchwald–Hartwig aminations, have been widely employed …

We report the use of biaryl phosphorinanes as ligands for Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling
reactions. A modular synthesis was developed that employs a double conjugate addition of …

Phosphines are widely used ligands in transition metal-catalyzed reactions. Arylphosphines,
such as triphenylphosphine, were among the first phosphines to show broad utility in …

Suzuki reaction usually uses palladium (Pd) complexes to accommodate a wide range of
substrates. In pursuing greener synthesis, immobilization of Pd complexes with various …

Cooperation between a Lewis base and Pd catalyst enables the direct enantioselective α‐
functionalization of aryl and vinyl acetic acid esters using a bifunctional B (pin)‐substituted …

A bulky three-hindered quadrant bisphosphine ligand, di-1-adamantylphosphino (tert-
butylmethylphosphino) methane, named BulkyP*, has been synthesized via a convergent …
