R-amino acid reductions, allow entry to other classes of compounds that are also useful as
the source of chiral centers, as with R-amino aldehydes, that, in turn, can be used in a …

Oxidation reactions are of fundamental importance in nature, and are key transformations in
organic synthesis. The development of new processes that employ transition metals as …

During the last decade a number of powerful asymmetric reactions have emerged as a result
of the growing need to develop efficient and practical syntheses of biologically active …

Large-scale connectomics requires dense staining of neuronal tissue blocks for electron
microscopy (EM). Here we report a large-volume dense en-bloc EM staining protocol that …

The processes for the selective oxidation of olefins have long been among the most useful
tools for day‐to‐day organic synthesis. Herein, the focus is on the asymmetric‐epoxidation …

The formation of oxygen–carbon bonds is one of the fundamental transformations in organic
synthesis. In this regard the application of palladium-based catalysts has been extensively …

Terminal alkenes are readily available functional groups which appear in α‐olefins
produced by the chemical industry, and they appear in the products of many contemporary …

The/&hydroxyamino group is frequently found in biologically active molecules. We report
here that this important unit can now be synthesized directly from olefins in enantiomerically …

Homogeneous asymmetric catalysis is one of the most important developments in chemistry
in the past several decades. 1-4 Thousands of chiral ligands and their transition metal …

Chemical synthesis is greatly facilitated by catalysis and further on by catalyst recovery and
recycle. Catalyst reuse increases the overall productivity and cost effectiveness of chemical …
