The pool of abundant chiral terpene building blocks (ie,“chiral pool terpenes”) has long
served as a starting point for the chemical synthesis of complex natural products, including …

Enoldiazo esters and amides have proven to be versatile reagents for cycloaddition
reactions that allow highly efficient construction of various carbocycles and heterocycles …

N‐Heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalyzed transformations have emerged as powerful tactics
for the construction of complex molecules. Since Stetter's report in 1975 of the total synthesis …

(4+ 3) Cycloadditions have been widely applied in synthesis, and in this review article, we
summarize some of the more recent applications, including formal (4+ 3) cycloadditions, in …

Current therapies for common types of cancer such as renal cell cancer are often ineffective
and unspecific, and novel pharmacological targets and approaches are in high demand …

The Stetter reaction is actually a special C− C bond forming reaction through a 1, 4‐addition
reaction in the presence of nucleophilic catalyst. It involves a reaction between aldehydes …

Covering: 2008 to 2013 Novel organic reactions drive the advance of chemical synthesis in
the same way that enabling technologies drive new scientific discoveries. One area of …

Englerins A and B are guaiane sesquiterpenes that were isolated from the bark of
Phyllanthus engleri, a plant indigenous to east Africa. The englerins consist of a 5-6-5 fused …

The article focuses on the study regarding the rhodium-catalyzed tandem cyclopropanation
with dienes. The study involves the palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling of diazoacetates …

Herein, we report a short semisynthesis of the potent transient receptor potential canonical
