A team of organic chemists at ITbM, Nagoya University, has developed a new reaction to directly install amines into carbonyl compounds using their unique phase-transfer catalyst. This unprecedented ...

IN their interesting letter in NATURE of April 19, Prof. T. M. Lowry and Dr. E. E. Walker made no reference to the work of Erlenmeyer upon induced optical activity in cinnamic acid (various papers in ...

ONE of the most fascinating problems of organic chemistry consists in the attempt to prepare compounds the molecules of which are devoid of planes of symmetry, and are therefore capable (like a screw ...
