An international team of chemists has successfully created methylenedistibiranes, which are three-membered rings that have two antimony atoms and one carbon atom. In their paper published in the ...

A new Frontiers in Chemistry review surveys ruthenium-catalyzed C–H activation, annulation, and hydrogen-borrowing strategies ...

Researchers from the National University of Singapore (NUS) have developed an electrochemical reaction manifold that promotes efficient nitrogen atom insertion into saturated carbocycles to access ...

Heterocycles make great drugs, but they tend to be lousy substrates for C–H activation, a class of reactions that transform traditionally inert C–H bonds into more useful moieties. The very same ...

The catalytic conversion of 1,2,3-triazole derivatives into diverse heterocyclic frameworks has emerged as a powerful strategy in modern synthetic chemistry. Central to this approach is the controlled ...

Sulfonimidamides have become popular in the past decade or so as chemists explore novel motifs for drug candidates. They feature a central sulfur atom with a double bond to oxygen, a double bond to ...

Researchers at the Scripps Research Institute advance heteorcylic chemistry trhough new reagents and reaction-tracking techniques. Heterocyclic compounds play an important role in medicinal chemistry ...
