In 1912, Victor Grignard was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his discovery of what came to be known as Grignard reagents. Since then, these compounds have come to play a key role in the ...
Brugger. J. E., M.S. Thesis, Penn. State College (1946). This apparatus was essentially like that of La Mer and Reed (J. Amer. Chem. Soc., 52, 3098; 1930), with the fraction which had reacted down the ...
An international research team has reported some surprising new metal-metal-bonded complexes—sought after as catalysts and enzyme mimics—including an unprecedented Mn(0)–Mg(II) species that serves as ...
Scientists at the Institute of Science Tokyo (Science Tokyo) have successfully realized the highly selective asymmetric 1,6 addition of aliphatic Grignard reagents to α,β,γ,δ-unsaturated carbonyl ...
The reaction utilizes an iron catalyst together with an N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligand, which suppresses unwanted side reactions to promote highly selective nucleophile addition. In organic ...
