Hydrogen spillover assisted by oxygenate molecules over nonreducible oxides
Nature Communications, 2022 Spontaneous migration of H-atoms from metal particles to a nonreducible oxide support is generally limited by thermodynamics. Here, small oxygenate molecules are found to act as effective H-carriers to promote this process and lead to much improved ...

Synthesis of α-hydroxy-β,β-difluoro-γ-ketoesters via [3,3]sigmatropic rearrangements [PDF]
, 2000 Readily available γ,γ-difluorinated allylic alcohols obtained from trifluoroethanol were esterified efficiently. Exposure to strong base (LDA) afforded the ester enolates, in which chelation both controlled configuration and stabilised against ...
