  • Researchers have investigated for decades a suitable catalyst to selectively synthesize epoxides from alkenes with air, in order to circumvent harsh oxidant agents. Here, the authors show that a selective aerobic epoxidation of industrial alkyl alkenes in liquid phase occurs without any catalyst, solvent nor additive, just placing the neat alkene under 3–5 bar of O2 and heating between 100 and 200 °C.

  • Individual metal atoms and few-atom metal clusters have shown promising catalytic activities, however, their exploitation in the total synthesis of complex organic molecules remains underexplored. Here, the authors develop a total synthesis of the bioactive natural product (±)-Licarin B involving key steps catalyzed by soluble individual Pd atoms and Cu/Pd/Pt clusters, achieving an 11-step linear synthesis and overall yield of 13.1%.
