Asymmetric ring-opening reactions of bicyclic alkenes are a significant area of research in organic chemistry, particularly for their ability to produce valuable chiral compounds. These reactions ...

Alkanes are major constituents of crude oil. They are also present at low concentrations in diverse non-contaminated because many living organisms produce them as chemo-attractants or as protecting ...

This review summarizes the catalytic performance of various metal-based catalysts in the CO2-assisted oxidative dehydrogenation of light alkanes, with the goal of identifying catalyst systems that ...

Ozone pollution, typically associated with warm weather and strong sunlight, has begun to manifest alarmingly in winter. This ...

These reactions are significant for synthesising primary haloalkanes and primary alcohols. In substitution reactions a catalyst is often added to increase the reaction rate. Alkanes can react with ...

By coordinating with alkynes through π-bonding, Lewis π-acids facilitate nucleophilic addition, leading to the formation of alkenyl metal species. These species can undergo electron rearrangement to ...

In a breakthrough that challenges long-held conventions in organic synthesis, researchers have successfully created a class ...

Alkane Resources has released its December 2024 quarterly results, with the company’s managing director Nic Earner describing the quarter as “significant”. Read More ...

most reported reactions have limitations, including a narrow substrate scope on the simple cyclic alkenes, low-to-moderate enantioselectivities, poor reactivities, and the necessity for large ...
