The class of nitrogen-containing molecules called diazo compounds has revealed a hidden talent: coupling with certain diazo partners to form carbon-carbon double bonds (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed., DOI: ...

Aliphatic alcohols are cheap, widely available, and very stable building blocks for chemical synthesis and drug discovery. Now, a team of chemists has found a way to add functional groups to them in ...
