Cyano (CN) groups are equivalent to carbonyl as well as amino- and hydroxymethyl groups. Therefore, their catalytic introduction under metal catalysis is an important issue in synthetic organic chemistry. Ni-catalyzed hydrocyanation is one of the ...
Lundurines A-D were isolated in 1995 from the Malayan plant Kopsia tenuis, which has been used in folk medicine and is a rich source of biologically active alkaloids. Their intriguing hexacyclic framework includes an unprecedented cyclopropa [b] i...
