Novel dirhodium coordination polymers: the impact of side chains on cyclopropanation

Seven novel dirhodium coordination polymers (Rh₂–Ln) (n = 1–7) are prepared by employing bitopic ligands to connect dirhodium nodes.

Challenging cyclopropanation reactions on non-activated double bonds of fatty esters

Cyclopropanation reactions in the chain of unsaturated fatty esters is a good strategy for the ready preparation of potential monomers for polymerization.

Polytopic bis(oxazoline)-based ligands for recoverable catalytic systems applied to the enantioselective Henry reaction

Polytopic chiral ligands based on bis(oxazoline) motifs can be efficiently used to prepare recoverable catalytic systems for Henry reactions using a release–capture strategy.

Asymmetric benzoylation and Henry reaction using reusable polytopic bis(oxazoline) ligands and copper(ii)

Multitopic bis(oxazoline)-based chiral ligands are associated with copper to generate catalysts for the asymmetric benzoylation of meso-hydrobenzoin, the kinetic resolution of rac-hydrobenzoin and the asymmetric Henry reaction.
