performances for progress in direct synthesis of indole backbones by heterocarbocyclization …

The three carbon atoms of allene moieties allow unique transformations and rapid
generation of complexity. Not surprisingly, allenes became extremely versatile building …

A variety of fluorescent molecular viscosity probes have been widely used for mapping the
local viscosity in cells and for monitoring the microenvironments in materials. However, their …

Palladium-catalyzed domino reactions are advanced tools in achieving various nitrogen-
containing heterocycles in an efficient and economical manner due to the reduced number …

Cross‐coupling reactions between propargylic alcohols and isocyanides, by means of silver
catalysis, have been described. This new reaction is both atom and step efficient and is …

Cesium carbonate is a type of alkali carbonate salt having a remarkable number of
applications and has been demonstrated to be a mild inorganic base in organic synthesis. It …

As early as 1991 Ochiai et al. reported that an acid‐activated form of phenyliodine diacetate,
PhI (OAc) 2, undergoes a reaction with propargyl‐silanes, germanes and stannanes to give …

ortho-Quinone methides (o-QMs) underwent formal [4+ 2]-cycloaddition reactions with
arylallenes regioselectively at the styrenyl olefin to furnish the corresponding 3-methylene-2 …

The synthesis of 2-substituted indoles and benzofurans was achieved by nucleophilic
aromatic substitution, followed by subsequent 5-endo-dig cyclization between the …

The newly discovered light‐driven gem hydrogenation of alkynes opens an unconventional
yet efficient entry into five‐coordinate Grubbs‐type ruthenium carbene complexes with cis …
