Transition metal-catalyzed cyclization reactions of unsaturated substrates have become one
of the most important and useful methodologies for the preparation of heterocycles. To this …

All pharmaceutical products contain organic molecules; the source may be a natural product
or a fully synthetic molecule, or a combination of both. Thus, it follows that organic chemistry …

Nitrogen (N) is ubiquitously found in bioactive molecules, pharmaceutical agents, and
organic functional materials. Accordingly, development of new C–N bond-forming catalysis …

Alkenylboranes have been vital reagents in modern synthetic organic chemistry, whose
carbon–boron bond is transformable into a carbon–carbon bond stereoretentively to give …

A new bifunctional pincer ligand framework bearing pendent proton-responsive hydroxyl
groups was prepared and metalated with Ru (II) and subsequently isolated in four discrete …

This review discusses recent advances in the chemistry of saturated boronic acids,
boronates, and trifluoroborates. Applications of the title compounds in the design of boron …

Environmentally friendly acid-catalyzed ynamide N–Csp bond cleavage, skeletal
rearrangement and chemo-, regio-and stereospecific functionalization with nucleophiles are …

A catalyst-free oxyboration reaction of alkynes is developed. The resulting borylated
isocoumarins and 2-pyrones are isolated as boronic acids, pinacolboronate esters, or …

Economical and eco-friendly aluminum hydrides were shown to be highly efficient catalysts
for the solvent-free hydroboration of various nitriles using pinacolborane. The catalytic …

During the past decade earth‐abundant metals have become increasingly important in
homogeneous catalysis. One of the reactions in which earth‐abundant metals have found …
