Carbon radicals are attractive intermediates for organic synthesis because of their diversity and high reactivities. In this research, we realized radical C-C bond formation reactions using alcohols ...

C coupling reactions have received great research interest. In particular, the deoxygenative homocoupling of benzyl alcohols is regarded as one of the most promising routes to produce bibenzyls.

WE have recently prepared benzyl hyponitrite by the method of Partington and Shah 1, and have found that it readily catalyses the polymerization of methyl methacrylate at room temperatures. At 30° C.

A molecule found in combustion on Earth and surrounding some stars can lead to the formation of an important organic hydrocarbon. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are a type of organic molecule ...

Alcohols play a pivotal role in organic synthesis because they are ubiquitous and can be used in a variety of well-established transformations. However, in C-C bond formation reactions, despite being ...
