Amide bond construction has garnered significant interest in recent decades due to amides
being one of the most prevalent functional groups among bioactive molecules. Out of the …

The Beckmann rearrangement, named after the German chemist Ernst Otto Beckmann
(1853–1923), is an acid catalyzed rearrangement of an oxime to an amide. The Beckmann …

Catalytic activation of hydroxyl functionalities is of great interest for the production of
pharmaceuticals and commodity chemicals. Here, 2-alkoxycarbonyl-and 2-phenoxycarbonyl …

Discovered over a century ago, Beckmann rearrangement is still today fully compliant with
all the green chemistry principles and consistent with the key aspects of sustainable …

A new activation principle in organocatalysis is presented: halide binding through
Coulombic interactions. This mode of catalysis was realized by using 3, 5‐di (carbomethoxy) …

The first three primary members of the non‐benzenoid carbocyclic aromatic ion family,
namely cyclopropenium, cyclopentadienide, and cycloheptatrienium (tropylium) ions, have …

The Beckmann rearrangement of ketoximes, mediated by ammonium persulfate-dimethyl
sulfoxide as a reagent, has been achieved under neutral conditions. Based on the radical …

A novel protocol for the activation of the Beckmann rearrangement utilizing the readily
available and economical geminal dichloroimidazolidinediones (DCIDs) on a …

A mild calcium catalysed Beckmann rearrangement has been realised, which forgoes the
more traditional harsh reactions conditions associated with the transformation. The catalyst …

The development of novel small molecule-based catalysts for organic transformations has
increased noticeably in the last two decades. A very recent addition to this particular …
