Direct conversion of readily available alkenes into high-value alcohols is important but challenging in both organic synthesis and industry. One-pot reductive hydroformylation of alkenes provides ...

Ozonolysis, which splits one alkene into two carbonyl compounds using ... chiral terpenes as a basis for complex synthesis, Brägger says. Turning terpenes into chiral amidines provides easy ...

A major advance in alkene oligomerization catalysis was Brookhart’s 1995 ... Organometallics 1999): We have more recently reported the synthesis of a labile platinum PFAP system which is considerably ...
