Overview of the latest issue of Angewandte Chemie

A new light-activated catalyst enables deracemization via carbon–halogen bond cleavage—the first of its kind targeting heteroatom bonds—offering a streamlined route to chiral pharmaceuticals

Bonnie Murphy, Max Planck Institute of Biophysics, Germany, honored for outstanding achievements in catalysis research

E. H. Tiekink, R. Verdijk, T. A. Hamlin, F. M. Bickelhaupt used quantum chemistry to show that hydrogen-bonding organocatalysts speed up the Diels–Alder reaction

Overview of the latest issue of Angewandte Chemie

A previously unobserved enzymatic strategy that expands the understanding of metalloenzyme catalysis and may guide the design of new biocatalysts for pharmaceutical synthesis

The dinuclear zirconocene alkynyl methyl complex represents a multifaceted platform for the activation of small molecules

The properties of the beryllyl ligands facilitate this novel C–H elementation reaction to an extent that is not possible with boron analogues

First use of the manganese(I)–carbonyl complex MnBr(CO)₅ as a catalyst for the [2 + 2 + 2] cycloaddition of functionalized triynes under mild photochemical conditions

Highest honor of the American Chemical Society (ACS) presented to the American chemical engineer and 2018 Nobel Laureate in Chemistry
