Important organic reactions require the use of catalysts. The Friedel-Crafts reactions were
discovered by Charles Friedel and James Mason Crafts in 1887. They are an essential …

A transition metal-free approach has been devised for the synthesis of a variety of bis
(indolyl) propyne (BIP) derivatives. The strategy involves an iodine-catalyzed cascade …

The distinct roles of different chemical species are essential for the discovery of novel
chemical transformations in organic synthesis. Here, we have designed a potential strategy …

A fast, scalable, transition metal-free, electrochemical sp2 geminal functionalization of
carbonyls enabled by anodic oxidation of non-prefunctionalized chromone-fused indolizines …

The synthesis of triarylmethanes was evaluated in the presence of various Brønsted and
Lewis acids under the same stoichiometric conditions. An efficient silver (I)‐catalyzed …
