Cyclic (alkyl)-and (aryl)-(amino) carbenes (CAACs and CAArCs) are stronger σ-donors and
π-acceptors than imidazol-2-ylidenes and imidazolidin-2-ylidenes, the well-known N …

Bimetallic catalysis represents an alternative paradigm for coupling chemistry that
complements the more traditional single-site catalysis approach. In this perspective, recent …

The past decade has witnessed the golden age of homogeneous gold-catalyzed reactions,
especially those that involve the transformation of highly strained molecules into complex …

The development of (4+ 3) cyclizations of vinyl aziridines, especially catalytic asymmetric
versions, is needed in organic synthesis. This report describes an iridium-catalyzed (4+ 3) …

Among the variously functionalized aziridines, 1 vinylaziridines and ethynylaziridines are
increasingly being exploited as versatile building blocks in organic synthesis. Compounds of …

Catalyst-controlled divergent intermolecular cycloadditions of vinylaziridines with alkynes
have been developed. By using [Rh (NBD) 2] BF4 as the catalyst, a [3+ 2] cycloaddition …

The unique structure and reactivity of the aziridine ring has attracted the interest of organic
chemists for many years. Of these, the cycloaddition of alkynes with aziridines via C–C bond …

A new synthetic application of vinyl aziridines as N‐containing three‐atom components in a
rhodium‐catalyzed [4+ 3] cycloaddition reaction is described. The reaction proceeds well …

By taking advantage of vinyl aziridines as a heteroatom-containing five-atom component in
rhodium-catalyzed intramolecular formal hetero-[5+ 2] cycloaddition reactions with alkynes …

The chemistry of Au (I) complexes with two types of cyclic (alkyl)(amino) carbene (CAAC)
ligands has been explored, using the sterically less demanding dimethyl derivative …
