In order to fully understand the underlying factors that govern the outcome of a chemical reaction, chemists need the ability to monitor and follow the reaction. NMR spectroscopy is an excellent way ...

It’s hard to improve on a classic. But Richard Y. Liu was eager to take on that challenge. Cross-coupling reactions, including Suzuki-Miyaura coupling and Buchwald-Hartwig amination, are some of the ...

Transition metals-enabled cross-coupling reactions are widely recognized as among the most significant catalysis tools available to chemists. By employing a third reactant, a team of researchers ...

In a case of teaching an old dog a new trick, Boston College researchers have discovered how to merge two important chemical transformations involving widely used organoboron reagents into one. Liang ...

Boston College researchers have developed a new type of “cross-coupling” chemical reaction, building on a Nobel Prize-winning technique that is one of the most sophisticated tools available to ...
