Direct conversion of readily available alkenes into high-value alcohols is important but challenging in both organic synthesis and industry. One-pot reductive hydroformylation of alkenes provides ...

He thought if he could form those rings from alkenes, he could get to the cleavage ... chiral terpenes as a basis for complex synthesis, Brägger says. Turning terpenes into chiral amidines ...

The rapid disappearance of the amber color of the bromine at room temperature is characteristic of reaction with alkenes. (colorless) (purple) (colorless ...

Site-selective C-H functionalization of alkenes, which are readily available feedstock starting materials, is valuable for synthesis, but challenging. An SCCE team, led by Shaolin Zhu, has ...

Electrocatalytic semi-hydrogenation of alkynes offers a viable route for the synthesis of Z-alkenes, yet it falls short in achieving the semi-deuteration of these compounds. Here, the authors ...
