The catalytic addition of water to unsaturated C–C or C–N π bonds represent one of the
most important and environmentally sustainable methods to form C–O bonds for the …

Here we show a practical iron-catalysed photoredox approach for C (sp3)–H alkynylation of
methane, ethane, and other light alkanes without pre-functionalisation processes, producing …

Furfural has been identified as a valuable biobased platform chemical that can be further
converted into bioenergy and biochemicals. Furfural is derived from lignocellulosic biomass …

Water addition on an unsymmetrical internal alkyne has significance in organic chemistry
and has stimulated challenging approaches to access a highly regioselective process …

An efficient, simple and general protocol for the selective hydration of terminal alkynes into
the corresponding methyl ketones has been developed by using a cheap, easy‐to …

The review describes the state of the art in hydration reactions of alkynes by direct or indirect
catalysis of first row transition metal complexes, covering mostly the literature of the last …

The global E factor (EG factor) has recently been introduced, in the context of asymmetric
organocatalysis, as a new green chemistry metric to take into consideration the synthesis of …

Meroterpenoids isolated from fungi of the Ganoderma family have received much attention
owing to their unique structures and diverse biological activities. A number of Ganoderma …
