Since our previous review, 1 there has been a tremendous development in the field of
carbazole alkaloids. New synthetic methodologies have been developed, existing …

Carbazole 1 was isolated first from coal tar in 1872 by Graebe and Glazer (Figure 1). 1 In
1965, Chakraborty et al. described the isolation and antibiotic properties of murrayanine …

The hydrolytic kinetic resolution (HKR) of terminal epoxides catalyzed by chiral (salen) CoIII
complex 1⊙ OAc affords both recovered unreacted epoxide and 1, 2-diol product in highly …

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 …

This review provides a critical analysis of catalytic kinetic resolution reactions from a
practical perspective, asking the question of when, if ever, is kinetic resolution the best …

1. INTRODUCTION The catalysis of organic reactions by metals still constitutes one of the
most useful and powerful tools in organic synthesis. 1 Although asymmetric synthesis is …

Environmental concerns along with the need to develop aliphatic polycarbonate materials
free of any toxic compounds have driven scientists to implement macromolecular …

Substituted tetrahydrofurans are commonly occurring substructures found in a broad array of
natural products and other biologically active molecules. For example, the annonaceous …

Described is a concise, highly stereocontrolled strategy to the Aspidosperma family of indole
alkaloids, one that is readily adapted to the asymmetric synthesis of these compounds. The …

The discovery in 1959 of stable nitroxide‐based free radicals such as the prototypical 2, 2, 6,
6‐tetramethylpiperidine‐1‐oxyl (TEMPO) led to their use as electron spin resonance (ESR) …
