1, 3-Dienes are ubiquitous and easily synthesized starting materials for organic synthesis,
and alkyl acrylates are among the most abundant and cheapest feedstock carbon sources. A …

Conjugated and non-conjugated polyenes are important substructures and are often found
in biologically active compounds and natural products. Their preparation often needs …

Catalytic cross-dimerization is one of the powerful synthetic methods to produce linear
molecules with high atom and step economy. Because this process involves a carbon …

Highly selective cross‐hydroalkenylations of endocyclic 1, 3‐dienes at the least substituted
site with α‐olefins were achieved with a set of neutral (NHC) NiIIH (OTf) catalysts and …

Coupling reactions of feedstock alkenes are promising, but few of these reactions are
practiced industrially. Even though recent advances in the synthetic methodology have led …

By using a zerovalent, electron-rich ruthenium complex bearing a tetradentate phosphine
ligand, a five-membered ruthenalactone was generated by oxidative cyclization of ethylene …

Ligand‐exchange reactions on a mangana (II) cyclopentasilane complex that contains two
THF ligands with aryl isocyanides led to the formation of manganese (0) bis (η2‐disilene) …

Synthesis of a ruthenium (II)–aquo complex bearing 2, 2′: 6′, 2′′-terpyridine and a 1, 4-
