The selective conversion of carbon–oxygen bonds into carbon–nitrogen bonds to form amines is one of the most important chemical transformations for the production of bulk and fine chemicals and pharma ...

Building small-molecule libraries with structural and stereogenic diversity plays an important role in drug discovery. The development of switchable intermolecular cycloaddition reactions from ...

Strecker synthesis is one of several means of producing α-amino acids. α-amino acids are molecules, which contain an amine and carboxylic group that are separated by a single carbon (the α-carbon).

Amines are an important class of organic compounds. Students might be aware that adrenaline and ephedrine, which contain secondary amino groups, are used to increase blood pressure. Novocain which is ...
