✦ Synopsis

Auto-Tandem Catalysis: A Single Catalyst Activating Mechanistically Distinct Reactions in a Single Reactor Two catalytic reactions with one stroke: "Auto-tandem catalysis" refers to a domino reaction process in which one catalyst promotes more than two fundamentally different chemical transformations in a single reactor. Auto-tandem catalysis offers a more efficient, greener process in organic synthesis by reducing the number of steps, the catalyst loading, and the amount of waste.
