National University of Singapore (NUS) chemists have developed an "anchoring-borrowing" strategy, combined with facet ...

Coupling reactions are essential in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and advanced materials, but traditional ...

This study presents an innovative approach to single-atom catalysts, overcoming oxidative addition challenges in cross-coupling reactions for pharmaceuticals.

In particular, the authors made judicious use of known chemistry in the initial reaction of C6-O-TMS acetal with an aryl aldehyde followed by the TMSOTf-catalyzed cyclization with O4 to a ...

Common to all the complexes they examined (cationic biphenyl gold(III) complexes with aryl, alkyl, and diphosphine helper ligands, known as [(C^C)Au(P^P)] + cations) is a gold atom bonded to two ...

Our research efforts are directed toward developing new classes of ancillary ligands (including now-commercialized ‘DalPhos’ ligands) and derived transition metal complexes that exhibit interesting ...
