Abstract
Retraction of ‘Molybdenum-silver co-catalyzed cycloaddition of alkynes with N-isocyanoiminotriphenylphosphorane (NIITP): an efficient strategy for the synthesis of monosubstituted pyrazoles’ by Pengbing Mi et al., Chem. Commun., 2019, 55, 7986–7989.
We, the named authors, hereby wholly retract this Chemical Communications article due to significant similarities between the article and a paper published in Organic Letters.1
Dr Pengbing Mi, one of the authors of the Chemical Communications paper had previously worked in the group of Professor Xihe Bi (corresponding author of ref. 1). After further investigation, the authors of the Chemical Communications paper have confirmed that the majority of the data in their article belongs to Prof. Bi's group and therefore, they did not have permission to publish it.
For this reason, the authors requested to retract this article. The authors apologise for their mistake and for any subsequent inconvenience to readers.
