The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has had wide reaching implications on the global research community. In addition to limitations on the ability to conduct research, many in our community are experiencing restricted or no access to institutional resources and published research articles. In-line with our continuing efforts to support the chemical sciences community, we have put together some subject-specific collections of our most popular Chemical Science content from 2018 and 2019. These specially curated collections are designed to highlight some of the exceptional research published in Chemical Science – and like all Chemical Science articles, they are free to access and read from anywhere on the globe with no restrictions. We hope you will find them useful during this time.
Many of the articles selected in the collections below are also included in our 2018, 2019 and 2020 ChemSci Pick of the Week Collections, as well as our 2018, 2019 and 2020 Chemical Science HOT Article Collections.
This collection presents some outstanding contributions to the field, ranging from dual vicinal functionalisation of heterocycles via an interrupted Pummerer coupling/[3,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement cascade to a review of C4-H indole functionalisation. Browse the full collection
