It’s hard to improve on a classic. But Richard Y. Liu was eager to take on that challenge. Cross-coupling reactions, including Suzuki-Miyaura coupling and Buchwald-Hartwig amination, are some of the ...

A new catalyst strategy developed at Institute of Science Tokyo uses BaSi2 as a support for nickel and cobalt to decompose ...

Researchers develop a one pot process to transform aromatic ketones to esters, offering advancements in pharmaceutical synthesis and materials science. Aromatic ketones have traditionally been ...

Caption Researchers used a novel phosphate-activation reagent, 2-MeImIm-Cl, in an improved coupling reaction to increase the yield of ADP- or ATP-containing molecules. Unlike traditional reactions, ...

Chemists from ETH Zurich have found a way to produce poorly soluble proteins by caging a uniquely reactive boron compound. This method opens up new possibilities for the synthesis of tailored protein ...

A team of chemists has demonstrated a way to form sulfur-sulfur bonds at room temperature without any external catalyst, ...
