The organic chemistry of polyvalent iodine compounds has experienced an unprecedented,
explosive development during the last decade of the 20th century. A quick SciFinder Scholar …

As the main constituent of natural gas, alkanes are arguably Nature's most plentiful organic
base chemicals that are easily accessible. Chemists have long coveted the use of alkanes …

hemistry is the science about breaking and forming of bonds between atoms. One of the
most important processes for organic chemistry is breaking bonds C–H, as well as C–C in …

The Ni-catalyzed oxidation of unactivated alkanes, including the oxidation of polyethylenes,
by meta-chloroperbenzoic acid (m CPBA) occur with high turnover numbers under mild …

In 1, 1, 1, 3, 3, 3-hexafluoro-2-propanol (HFIP) as solvent, the epoxidation of olefins by
hydrogen peroxide is accelerated up to ca. 100 000-fold (relative to that in 1, 4-dioxane as …

Steroids are highly prevalent structures in small‐molecule therapeutics, with the level of
oxidation being key to their biological activity and physicochemical properties. These C …

The present overview of alkane functionalization reactions presents comparisons between
radical and metal‐initiated (sometimes metal‐catalyzed) methodologies. While metal …

Dioxiranes are multi-tasking reagents with mild and selective oxygen transfer attributes.
These oxidants are accessed from the reaction of ketones with an oxidant and are employed …

The site selectivities and stereoselectivities of C–H oxidations of substituted cyclohexanes
and trans-decalins by dimethyldioxirane (DMDO) were investigated computationally with …

The efficacy of synthetic methodologies is based not only on potent chemistries but also on
processing strategies that amplify reaction performance and overall safety. The N …
