Researchers at Okayama University have developed a novel photochemical macrolactonization that converts hydroxyaldehydes into macrolactones (ring sizes 7–21) using in-situ generated acyl bromide ...

Macrolactones—large ring lactones—are core components of many natural products and pharmaceutical agents. Traditional synthetic routes rely on seco ...

A newly developed pentanuclear iron complex can offer an efficient, stable, and cost-effective solution for water oxidation. By electrochemically polymerizing the complex, researchers have obtained a ...

ABSTRACT: Photochemical bromination of toluene up to 300 mmol per run in aqueous biphasic system formed benzyl bromide of sufficient purity to be used directly for benzylations without any ...

Donald J. Trump’s second term brings uncertainty to the Korean Peninsula as nuclear tensions run high. North Korea’s leader may see a chance to re-engage. By Choe Sang-Hun Reporting from Seoul During ...

The proposed method is simple, mild, fast, and produces high yields, with the potential to inspire the development of new drugs and agrochemicals. Indolo[2,3-a]quinolizidine is a common structural ...

A new computational study adds to mounting evidence that electrophilic aromatic bromination reactions follow an addition–elimination pathway and not the classic mechanism described in textbooks. 1 Now ...

Oxidative bromination has been serving as a powerful tool for the synthesis of bromo-containing molecules, as this bromination strategy features environmental friendliness, high flexibility in ...
