Although these "trivalent" platforms enable the efficient synthesis of complex compounds, the selective formation of triazoles using platforms with azide and alkyne moieties remains an unsolved ...

Completed research has focused on the application of tandem Nicholas and Pauson­-Khand reactions for the synthesis of tricyclic heterocycles. Ongoing research involves expanding the use of ...

The starting materials are a benzenediacetaldehyde (a benzene ring with two aldehydes attached), and two equivalents of a phenyl alkyne. The reaction is facilitated ... Dr Itami hopes that this new ...

Alkynes show characteristic and strong Raman scattering light that is not shown by intracellular molecules, despite being very small entities. Therefore, we investigated the use of alkynes as tags for ...
