Complex molecular architectures containing cyclopropanes present significant challenges
for any synthetic chemist. This review aims to highlight the strategic considerations for …

Aziridines, the smallest nitrogen-containing heterocycles, are useful building blocks in
synthesis, as well as important synthetic targets (Scheme 1). 1 The interest toward synthetic …

A mechanistic understanding of catalytic organic reactions is crucial for the design of new
catalysts, modes of reactivity and the development of greener and more sustainable …

Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) featuring chirality, stability, and function are of both
fundamental and practical interest, but are yet challenging to achieve. Here we reported the …

The recent technological evolution of reaction monitoring techniques has not been
paralleled by the development of modern kinetic analyses. The analyses currently used …

A graphical analysis to elucidate the order in catalyst is presented. This analysis uses a
normalized time scale, t [cat] Tn, to adjust entire reaction profiles constructed with …

Catalytic asymmetric synthesis has been one of the most active research areas in chemistry
(Nobel Prize in 2001). The development of efficient chiral catalysts plays a crucial role in …

The use of modern kinetic tools to obtain virtually continuous reaction progress data over the
course of a catalytic reaction opens up a vista that provides mechanistic insights into both …

Although already established as distinct areas of practice by chemists by the late 19th
century, a formal distinction between homogeneous and other types of catalysis was only …

The catalytic copolymerization of CO2 with epoxides has been known for over 40 years.
Even though many heterogeneous and homogeneous catalyst systems have been …
