Three-membered carbocycles are extremely important versatile building blocks for organic
chemistry. Their unique structural and electronic properties give rise to an array of very …

Fullerenes are entirely insoluble in water, but suitable functionalization makes the molecules
soluble. Studies on water-soluble fullerene derivatives led to the discovery of the interaction …

The development of innovative strategies for the synthesis of N-heterocyclic compounds is
an important topic in organic synthesis. Ring expansion methods to form large N …

This critical review discusses recent developments in the field of cyclopropene chemistry.
Although several excellent reviews that mainly focused on the thermolysis and pyrolysis as …

Cyclopropene hydrofunctionalization has been a promising strategy for accessing multi‐
substituted cyclopropanes; however, cyclopropene hydroalkylation remains …

A novel Cu-catalyzed diastereo-and enantioselective desymmetrization of cyclopropenes to
afford nonracemic cyclopropylboronates is described. Trapping the cyclopropylcopper …

The transformations of cyclopropenes have attracted the attention of organic chemists for
decades. As readily accessible strained carbocycles, cyclopropenes show a diverse range …

Since the first discovery of carbocupration of alkynes in the 1970s a tremendous amount of
research has been carried out in this field. The exceptionally high selectivities obtained …

Gold-catalyzed reactions, which have been widely explored over the past several years, are
powerful tools in organic synthesis to access complex molecular frameworks, and some …

Functionalizable directing groups (DGs) are highly desirable in C− H activation chemistry.
The nitrone DGs are explored in rhodium (III)‐catalyzed C− H activation of arenes and …
