Web of Science- Cited Ref Searching
Based on a true story …..
Important paper my advisor gave me:
Dixon C.E., Netherton M.R., Baines K.M.
Addition of Methyl Grignard Reagents to Germasilenes and Digermenes: Unusual Ligand Exchange Reaction of the Resulting Germyl Grignard Reagents.
Journal of the American Chemical Society 1998, 120, 10365-10371.
