We’re excited to share our new protocol enabling reductive activation of π-bonds via e-Chem in J. Am. Chem. Soc. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja… The radical anions promote coupling of olefins or heterocycles with aldehydes. Great work by the team: Liam Franov, Tayla and M Czyz.

Very excited to share our latest protocol in Nature Catalysis for photocatalytic generation of alkyl carbanions - no need organometallic reagents or reducing metals. Starting from alkene feedstocks, it works with diverse carbon electrophiles. 💥 A Herculean effort led by
