SOS ECAB: Meet Dr. Joshua P. Barham
The Science of Synthesis Early Career Advisory Board (ECAB) is a 3-year program to help promote young talented chemists. Learn more about our ECAB members and read the short interview of Dr. Joshua P. Barham
Case Study: Enantioselective Cycloadditions Involving Sulfur Ylides
Check out this SOS case study by Clara Meilhac of the Institut de Chimie Moleculaire et des Matériaux d’Orsay (ICMMO), CNRS, Université Paris-Saclay, France. It focuses on enantioselective cycloadditions involving sulfur ylides and explains how to use SOS as a resource for organic synthesis.
SOS Case Studys: What? — Why? — How?
The SOS Case Studies illustrate how SOS can accelerate and strengthen your research. Here, you will find answers to frequently asked questions (FAQs) about SOS Case Studies.
SOS Offers Different “Means of Transport”
Explore Science of Synthesis as if it were a big city, using one of the different means of transportation. SOS offers three ways to access the knowledge base: via the SOS Online Platform, the SOS eBooks, or the SOS Datasets.
Thieme Cheminars: Presented by SOS
Thieme Cheminars is a series of free-to-attend online seminars that cover topics at the forefront of chemical research. These mini-symposia are presented by Science of Synthesis and Thieme's chemistry journals.
Case Study: Synthetic Strategies toward Lactones
Take a look at this SOS case study by Yingmin Ji and Dr. Albert Granados at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona in Spain. It focuses on the synthesis of lactones and explains how to use SOS as a structure-based planning tool.
Thieme Has Signed National Agreement for SOS
Stuttgart: Thieme has signed a German agreement with FID Chemie – Fachinformationsdienst Chemie to provide nationwide access to Science of Synthesis, our flagship synthetic chemistry reference database.
New SOS Reference Library: Dearomatizations
The new Science of Synthesis volume "Dearomatizations", edited by David Sarlah, serves as an essential reference, covering all aspects of dearomative chemistry, from classic transformations such as the Birch reduction to cutting-edge developments in asymmetric catalysis, photochemistry, and electrochemistry.
Case Study: Discovering an Improved Synthetic Route to [1.1.1]Propellane
Check out this case study, focusing on the topic of ring-strain chemistry, from Kasmita Singha at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) in Bangalore, and learn more about how SOS can help you in your day-to-day work.
Mariola Tortosa Becomes New SOS Board Member
We are delighted to welcome Professor Mariola Tortosa from Universidad Autónoma de Madrid (Spain) as a new member of the Science of Synthesis Editorial Board. Her research interests include boron chemistry, asymmetric catalysis and the synthesis of natural products.
