Catalysis, Synthesis, and Materials in Support of Chemical Understanding and Global Health

Chapter 1: Skipped polyenes featuring high (E)-selectivity and varying methyl substitution patterns are synthesized using a nickel-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction between allyl trifluoroacetates and vinyl bromides. The utility of this cross-electrophile coupling is showcased in part by the synthes...
