In the process, the group discovered a new method for α-chlorinating ketals, a new method for asymmetric cyclobutane synthesis, and useful interconversions of 2-aminoimidazoles.

Biomass, mainly composed of lignocellulose and vegetable oil, has been acclaimed as one of the most promising sustainable sources of raw carbon material for the synthesis of transport fuels and ...

Taking advantages of the fact that acetalization is a reversible reaction and the formed cyclic acetals/ketals are stable/low reactivity in basic media, acetalization as a protection strategy of the ...
