This module teaches fundamentals of pericyclic reactions using examples of biocatalysis, biomimetic catalysis, and natural product total synthesis. After completion, students should be able to ...

reaction mechanisms, catalytic methods, pericyclic reactions, and protochemistry. Introductory applications of computational chemistry is covered. The course is open to undergraduate students (with ...

The discovery of this transformation not only facilitates the development and application of chiral vicinal diamines in organic synthesis but also enriches the diboron chemistry and pericyclic ...

A team led by Renxiang Tan and Huiming Ge showed that enzyme-catalyzed pericyclic [6+4] cycloadditions, a class of reactions in organic synthesis first proposed in 1965, are present during ...
