The two publications are Catalytic asymmetric Henry reaction— review article and total synthesis of (+) boronolide, Tetrahedron.
Further Dr Tamuly said that Dr James Milne, publisher of Organic and Inorganic Chemistry, said in a letter dated June 22, 2007 that the latter article has been recognized as a ‘Top 50 most downloaded’ articles from Tetrahedron on ScienceDirect.
