The olefin metathesis reaction of two unsaturated substrates is one of the most powerful carbon–carbon-bond-forming reactions in organic chemistry. Specifically, the catalytic olefin metathesis ...

making them indispensable in modern chemistry and industry. Despite significant advances in alkene production, a simple and flexible way to transform a wide variety of starting materials into ...

The realization of contra-thermodynamic alkene isomerization has been a long ... but with little success," said Professor of Chemistry Robert Knowles. "By merging chromium catalysis and photoredox ...

Now, University of Chicago chemists have discovered an efficient method to make a kind of olefin with four different attachments—used in everything from medicines to new ways to store data. In a paper ...

Following the model of a successful series of previous symposia, the upcoming ISOM XXII will cover the following topics: Catalyst development and Organometallic Chemistry of carbenes and carbynes ...

In particular, the Nobel-prize-winning palladium-catalysed cross-coupling reactions have long been used in the synthesis of natural products, in medicinal chemistry ... But, when olefin such as ...
