Oxetanes: Recent Advances in Synthesis, Reactivity and Medicinal Chemistry [PDF]
The 4-membered oxetane ring has been increasingly exploited for its behaviors, i.e. influence on physicochemical properties as a stable motif in medicinal chemistry, and propensity to undergo ring opening reactions as a synthetic intermediate.

Vibrational Partition Functions from Bond Order and Populations Relationships
A new computational model is presented that predicts vibrational partition functions using bond orders and populations relationships (QBOP). This model demonstrates that thermochemical energy contributions can be reasonably approximated based on well‐conditioned orbital populations without the need for a costly Hessian calculation.

Directed carbonylative (3+1+2) cycloadditions of amino-substituted cyclopropanes and alkynes: reaction development and increased efficiencies using a cationic rhodium system [PDF]
Urea-directed carbonylative insertion of Rh(I)-catalysts into one of the two proximal C–C bonds of aminocyclopropanes generates rhodacyclopentanone intermediates.

From Turpentine to (‐)‐Menthol: a New Approach
The rising popularity of (‐)‐menthol, as the main component of the natural mint aroma with applications in the pharmaceuticals, cosmetics and food industry, leads to a growing need for synthetic menthol production to satisfy the world demand. In this study a novel green synthesis route for menthol is presented.

Intramolecular amidocyclopropanation reactions using diethoxymethyl-functionalised lactams as organozinc carbenoid precursors [PDF]
Intramolecular amidocyclopropanation reactions of diethoxymethyl-lactams containing a pendant alkene were examined using zinc/TMSCI. With a range of 4-6-membered lactams, bicyclic amidocyclopropanes were obtained with very high diastereoselectivity with ...

Phenol‐Rich Carbon Dots as Metal‐Free Nano‐Photocatalysts for [3 + 2] Cycloaddition Reactions
Phenol‐rich carbon dots can be effectively used, in combination with a proper base and the Schreiner thiourea (A), as nano‐photocatalysts to drive synthetically relevant [3 + 2] cycloaddition reactions between cyclopropyl ketones 1 and unsaturated hydrocarbons 2. Carbon dots (CDs) are unique carbon‐based nanoparticles with potential applications in the
