The design and synthesis of novel 15-membered 11-azalides and 16-membered 11,12-diazalide starting from 16-membered macrolides are reported. A mobile linear dialdehyde was isolated via a cyclic ...

Commonly used by chemists as ligands for catalysts, cyclic imino ethers can also be polymerized to make materials that could help transport drugs into cells. Bart Verbraeken had been trying, ...

Creating rings, or carbocycles, with a six-carbon skeleton is an elementary exercise for synthetic organic chemists. Ask one how it’s done, and the chemist will inevitably point to the stalwart ...
