Transforming how plastics are made, unmade, and remade through innovative research and
diverse partnerships that together foster environmental stewardship is critically important to …

Transition-metal-catalyzed decarbonylation via carbon–carbon bond cleavage is an
essential synthetic methodology. Given the ubiquity of carbonyl compounds, the selective …

This Article describes the development of a decarbonylative Pd-catalyzed aryl–fluoroalkyl
bond-forming reaction that couples fluoroalkylcarboxylic acid-derived electrophiles [RFC (O) …

Transition-metal-catalyzed decarbonylation reactions of aliphatic carboxylic acids produce
olefins via one carbon degradation. Recently, tremendous progress has been made in the …

We report here cobalt–N-heterocyclic carbene catalytic systems for the intramolecular
decarbonylative coupling through the chelation-assisted C–C bond cleavage of acylindoles …

Heterogeneous catalysts have so far not been very efficient [turnover frequency (TOF)< 19 h–
1] or very selective (≤ 60%) for α-olefin formation in deoxygenation of fatty acids. Here we …

Transition-metal-catalyzed decarbonylative dehydration of even-numbered fatty acids to
give valuable odd-numbered alpha olefins has so far been performed using approaches in …

Combining high-throughput experimentation with conventional experiments expedited
discovery of new first-row nickel catalysts for the dehydrative decarbonylation of the …

Scientists are exploring renewables as sources for a more sustainable production of
chemicals. Linear α-olefins (LAOs) are key commodity chemicals and petrochemical …

Fuel-like hydrocarbons (also known as biofuel) isolated from the deoxygenation of fatty
acids present different advantages as compared with fossil fuels. In particular, the …
