Cycloaddition reactions represent a cornerstone of synthetic organic chemistry, facilitating the formation of cyclic structures through concerted pericyclic processes. Traditionally explained via ...

Azido complexes, which incorporate the linear azide ligand (N₃⁻), have emerged as versatile intermediates in the construction of diverse heterocyclic frameworks. The inherent reactivity of these ...

A team of Princeton University researchers has tinkered with the ligand design of an iron catalyst to overcome a long-standing reactivity barrier for coupling alkenes to make cyclobutanes. The ...

This module teaches fundamentals of pericyclic reactions using examples of biocatalysis, biomimetic catalysis, and natural product total synthesis. After completion, students should be able to ...
