A particularly challenging chemical transformation is to start with what's known as an unactivated alkene—a common molecular building block—and end up with a vicinal diamine; i.e ...

The team has developed a new way to make a special kind of molecule called a ‘chiral vicinal diamine’. A general, practical, convenient, and enantioselective synthesis of chiral vicinal diamines is ...
