Boron-Mediated Lignocellulose Degradation. Design, Synthesis, Properties, and Applications of Boron-Containing Naphthoids
DownloadSpring 2023
Lewis acidity is a molecule’s tendency to accept a pair of electrons. Trivalent boron compounds are archetypical Lewis acids due to the presence of a vacant p orbital, leading to many uses in organic synthesis. For example, boron trihalides use their intrinsic Lewis acidity to accept ether oxygen...

The construction of diverse nitrogen-containing heterocycles via the reaction of amines of azides with metallocarbenes
DownloadFall 2011
A fundamental goal in organic chemistry is the development of new and innovative ways of transforming simple building blocks into complex structures. The formation of ylides from the reaction of metallocarbenes with heteroatoms, such as the nitrogen of an amine or azide, is an example of a...
