Nature research paper: Decarboxylative alkylation of alkenes go.nature.com/3QEvX3Y

Decarboxylative alkylation of alkenes

Nature - A Pd-catalysed method enables regio- and diastereoselective C–H alkylation of diverse alkenes using carboxylic acids, expanding synthetic access to complex substituted alkenes.

Our work on decarboxylative alkylation of alkene is now online in @nature

In @Nature, we show that redox-active esters can be transformed into alkyl zinc species useful for transmetalation, providing a solution to rate matching in XEC reactions! First application: alkylation of alkenes via polar decarboxylative cross-coupling! nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

New method for N-arylation of amines in DNA-encoded libraries! Using ruthenium-mediated pi-arene activation, aryl halides are activated, then undergo SNAr followed by photolysis to give the N-arylated DNA-conjugate. Out now in @J_A_C_S ! Open Access🔓 pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/jac…

In our new @JOC_OL paper, we show the deaminative cyanation of anilines using our nitrate reduction approach along with a theoretical study that points towards an oxylanion radical transfer mechanism that generates NO2 from nitrate! Open access! 🔓 pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…
