Advances in Skeletal Editing and Rearrangement Reactions

Abstract

Skeletal editing allows chemists to insert, delete or exchange atoms in molecules. The focus of this webcheminar was on transformations that modify the heavy-atom skeleton of organic compounds, especially those amenable to late-stage synthesis. Transformations agnostic of the underlying chemical modality (e.g., transition metal catalysis, photochemistry, reagent development, etc.).
