Making carbohydrate-derived drugs from naturally occurring sugars often requires chemists to temporarily shield the sugar’s ...

Researchers develop a one pot process to transform aromatic ketones to esters, offering advancements in pharmaceutical synthesis and materials science. Aromatic ketones have traditionally been ...

Circularly conjugated compounds with 4n+2 pi-electrons are known as aromatic compounds. They are generally stable and are found in our surroundings. Conversely, anti-aromatic compounds with 4n ...

Cyclic sulfonimidamides, which have distinct properties from standard heterocycles, are particularly intriguing, but there ...

The term aromaticity is a basic, long-standing concept in chemistry that is well established for ring-shaped carbon compounds. Aromatic rings consisting solely of metal atoms were, however, heretofore ...

Cheap, strong, and versatile, plastic seemed like the perfect invention—until its staying power turned into a global headache. Now, Yokohama National University researchers have developed a ...

Catalytic hydroxylation of aromatic compounds is a cornerstone transformation in both fine-chemical synthesis and industrial chemistry, enabling the direct introduction of hydroxyl groups into ...
