Cyanobacteria are unicellular prokaryotic algae that perform oxygenic photosynthesis, similar to plants. The cells harbor thylakoid membranes composed of lipids related to those of chloroplasts in ...

My research focuses on the chiral resolution of cyclopropyl esters, in order to use them to synthesize a chirally-active N-Heterocyclic Carbene (NHC) ligand. NHC-based organometallic catalysts have ...

RhRu bimetallic oxide clusters supported on carbon catalyzed the cross-dehydrogenative coupling of arenes and carboxylic acids with molecular oxygen as the sole oxidant. The reactivity of the Rh ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract Volatile esters play an important role in the aroma of strawberry fruits, whose flavor is the result of a complex mixture of various esters.

The importance of aryl sulfides in biologically active compounds has led chemists to develop methods to synthesize them from carbon-sulfur bond forming reactions. The conventional reaction, however, ...

Organoboron compounds have long been a favorite tool of organic chemists. For example, they are one of the reaction partners in the wildly popular Suzuki cross-coupling reaction, wherein palladium ...

Rearrangement reactions are useful ways to make substituted aromatic molecules, but most of the methods that shift a substituent around an arene ring leave a functional group behind at the vacated ...
