Enhancing the activity of a squaramide as organocatalyst through the novel concept of trifunctionality
It is well known the lower activity of organocatalysts as compared to most metal catalysts. As a result, developing new and more potent organocatalysts focuses a great deal of interest both for science and chemical industry. Herein, we present our … Continue reading
