Okadaic acid 1, a nasty marine toxin, is a complex multiring polyether found in certain dinoflagellates, single-cell eukaryotes of the genera Dinophysis and Thorecta. It typically accumulates in sea ...

Researchers in China have developed a method for synthesising a variety of methylenecyclobutane derivatives. It overcomes previous synthetic challenges surrounding regioselectivity, stereoselectivity ...

Covering: up to the end of 2021[2 + 2]-Type cyclobutane natural products are biosynthetically derived from intermolecular [2 + 2] cycloaddition or intramolecular [2 + 2] cycloaddition reactions. Due ...

Even though many plastics are recyclable, most are not recycled because of the cost and labor needed. To help make plastic recycling easier, chemists want to find new polymers that require less work ...

Cyclobutyl moieties in drug molecules are rare, and in general, they are minimally substituted and stereochemically simple. Methods to assemble structurally complex cyclobutane building blocks ...
