Scientists have been naming ideas, theorems, discoveries, and so on after other scientists for a very long time (Newton’s laws of motion, anyone?). Chemists are no different. They’ve been naming ...

Asymmetric ring‐opening reactions of bicyclic alkenes have emerged as a transformative approach in modern synthetic chemistry. These reactions capitalise on the inherent ring strain of fused cyclic ...

Organic chemistry is the study of the structure, properties, composition, reactions, and preparation of carbon-containing compounds. Most organic compounds contain carbon and hydrogen, but they may ...

To the casual observer, the periodic table is the only place to see chemists’ names in lights; organic chemists know better. Just like atomic elements, organic chemistry reactions get names, too. It’s ...
