The carbon–carbon (C–C) bond cleavage of cyclopropanols is a wide area of research with
much current activity. This review highlights new developments in this area over the past two …

Since its introduction to organic synthesis in 1977 by Kagan, 1, 2 samarium (II) iodide (SmI2,
Kagan's reagent) has gained the status of one of the most versatile single-electron transfer …

Abstract Introduced by Henri Kagan more than three decades ago, samarium diiodide
(SmI2) has found increasing application in chemical synthesis. This single‐electron …

Due to their high strain, unique bonding and relative ease of ring-cleavage, and because
they are readily accessible, cyclopropanols have been employed in an increasing number of …

The development of divergent methods to expedite structure–activity relationship studies is
crucial to streamline discovery processes. We developed a rare example of regiodivergent …

Samariumdiiodid (SmI2) hat nach seiner Einführung vor mehr als drei Jahrzehnten durch
Henri Kagan zunehmend Verwendung in der chemischen Synthese gefunden. Dieses Ein …

Organic nitrates are broadly applied as pharmaceuticals (acting as efficient nitric oxide
donor), energetic materials, building blocks in organic synthesis, etc. However, practical and …

We report the synthesis of orthogonally functionalized naphthalenes from simple,
commercially available indanones in four steps. The developed method proceeds through a …

The reduction of 1, 2-bis [(2, 6-diisopropylphenyl) imino] acenaphthene (dpp-Bian) with an
excess of samarium in 1, 2-dimethoxyethane (dme) affords the SmII complex (dpp-Bian) Sm …
