Regioselective synthesis of isocoumarins by ruthenium-catalyzed aerobic oxidative
cyclization of aromatic acids with alkynes - Chemical Communications (RSC Publishing) …

Two domino annulation approaches for benzoxazole synthesis have been developed. In the
first approach, copper-catalyzed intermolecular cross-coupling of 1, 2-dihaloarenes with …

We systematically investigated, for the first time, the relationship between regioselectivity
and acid/base effects in the cyclization reactions between carboxylic acids and carbon …

Being an important constituent of naturally occurring lactones with diverse biological
activities and as a pivotal intermediate in heterocycle synthesis, the isocoumarin motif has …
