Fluorous mixture synthesis minimizes the effort to synthesize small-molecule libraries by labelling the molecules rather than the reaction vessels. Reactants are labelled with fluorinated tags and ...

The latest short science news items from C&EN. In order for the catalyst to be stereoselective, its ligand has to be able to distinguish between the different alkyl substituents. Fu’s hunch about how ...

Stereochemistry is the branch of chemistry concerned with the three‐dimensional arrangement of atoms within molecules and the consequences these arrangements have on chemical properties and reactivity ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract All 16 stereoisomers of the sex pheromone of pine sawfly (3,7,11-trimethylundecanol propanoate ester) have been synthesized on a 10- to 20-mg ...

Researchers at Nagoya University have reported in Nature Communications on the development of an organic catalyst (organocatalyst) that triggers a highly stereoselective 1,6-addition of azlactones ...
