First-row transition-metal-mediated reactions constitute an important and growing area of
research due to the low cost, low toxicity, and exceptional synthetic versatility of these …

From its humble origins as a mere 'chemical curiosity,'radical chemistry has developed into
one of the most powerful tools for preparative organic synthesis. Initially considered too …

Unactivated olefins are converted to alkyl azides with bench-stable NaN3 in the presence of
FeCl3· 6H2O under blue-light irradiation. The products are obtained with anti-Markovnikov …

The reactivity of water with both carbanion and carbocation intermediates is well known, but
until now it has generally been believed that water is inert towards free radicals.[1] This …

Covering: 1983 to 2005 This review covers the structures and biological activities of
eudesmane-type sesquiterpenoids from the plants of the Asteraceae family. Biosynthetic …

Bioassay-directed fractionation of Saussurea lappa led to the isolation of a novel
lappadilactone (1) and seven sesquiterpene lactones (2− 8) as cytotoxic principles against …

In recent years solid evidence of HAT reactions involving water as hydrogen atom source
have been presented. In this work we demonstrate that the efficiency of titanocene (III) aqua …

The titanocene‐catalyzed cascade cyclization of epoxypolyenes, which are easily prepared
from commercially available polyprenoids, has proven to be a useful procedure for the …

In the last two decades, titanocene monochloride has been postulated as a monoelectronic
transfer reagent capable of catalyzing an important variety of chemical transformations. In …

The development of Green Chemistry inevitably involves the development of green
reagents. In this review, we highlight that Cp2TiCl is a reagent widely used in radical and …
