Tetra-substituted alkenes – carbon–carbon double bonds surrounded by four different chemical groups – are a surprisingly ...

Herein, an unprecedented and modular strategy for the stereoselective construction of functionalized indene scaffolds has been developed via a base-promoted, regioselective cascade iodoalkylation of ...

The Pd-catalyzed coupling of 2-vinylphenyl triflates with malonate esters provides malonate-substituted benzocyclobutenes in moderate yield. The reactions proceed via an unprecedented intermolecular ...
