The transformation of carbon dioxide (CO2) into useful chemicals, advanced materials, and
energy is a long-standing challenge in both fundamental science and industry. In recent …

Conspectus The ubiquity and importance of carboxylic acids and amides in peptides,
pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and synthetic materials has challenged chemists to design …

The past decade has witnessed the emergence of N-(acyloxy) phthalimides (NHPI esters)
and its derivatives at the forefront of synthetic methods facilitating the construction of diverse …

Herein we disclose a new photochemical process to prepare carboxylic acids from formate
salts and alkenes. This redox-neutral hydrocarboxylation proceeds in high yields across …

Harvesting sunlight to drive carbon dioxide (CO2) valorisation represents an ideal concept
to support a sustainable and carbon-neutral economy. While the photochemical reduction of …

Carboxylic acids, including amino acids (AAs), have been widely used as reagents for
decarboxylative couplings. In contrast to previous decarboxylative couplings that release …

Historically accessed through two-electron, anionic chemistry, ketones, alcohols, and
amines are of foundational importance to the practice of organic synthesis. After placing this …

Over the last several years, radical‐mediated decarboxylative cross‐coupling reactions
employing alkyl carboxylic acids have emerged as a powerful tool for the regiospecific …

Heterocyclic scaffolds are commonly found in numerous biologically active molecules,
therapeutic agents, and agrochemicals. To probe chemical space around heterocycles …

Amino acids (AAs) are key structural motifs with widespread applications in organic
