- Divinylcyclopropane-cycloheptadiene rearrangement
Various cyclizations
Olefinations
- Barton-Kellogg reaction - like a thio Wittig rxn
- Julia olefination - Wittig with phenylsulfonyl carbanion as nucleophile
- Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons reaction - Wittig with phosphonate carbanion as nucleophile

Tosylhydrazones
- N-tosylhydrazone-based reactions:

Just for fun: things that are really complicated
Physics
- Navier–Stokes equations
- Einstein field equations
- Dark energy, Dark matter
- Standard Model (mathematical formulation), Lagrangian of the Standard Model of Particle Physics, after electroweak symmetry breaking, with no explicit Higgs boson
- Yang–Mills theory (not related to me)
- String theory
- M-theory
- Metric expansion of space
