The first conference just started with Andy Lawrence from The University of Edinburgh talking about total synthesis, asymmetric synthesis, and bio-inspired synthetic chemistry !

Check out our stereodivergent synthesis of atropisomeric peptide analogues in Chemical Science. Congrats to Natalie Roper & Aaron Campbell! Thanks to Alistair CBCB Newcastle & Kristaps Ermanis for your contributions. Newcastle Chemistry UoN Chemistry Sciences at Newcastle pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

Total synthesis of (−)-flueggenine A and (−)-15′-epi-flueggenine D - now published in Chemical Science pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art… Congrats to Seung Mo (1st author), Dr. Kim Dongwook (Crystallographer), and Taewan (calculation). KAIST Chemistry #totalsynthesis

Join us as we start the new year on Synthesis Workshop with a Research Spotlight talk by Dr. Vera Demertzidou on stereoretentive enantioconvergent reactions!! Link: youtu.be/bjE4ZUPlSvo Key paper:Nature Chemistry 2024, 16, 1177–1183. doi.org/10.1038/s41557… Andy Lawrence

A nice holiday present for us! Our most recent article has been accepted Angewandte Angewandte Chemie. Read it at the link below. doi.org/10.1002/anie.2…

Congratulations to Dr Vera Demertzidou (Vera Demertz) on creating a fantastic Synthesis Workshop Research Spotlight video on our new approach to enantioconvergent reactions, originally published Nature Chemistry (nature.com/articles/s4155…)!

🚨4-year fully funded PhD studentship available in organoborane catalysis (via EPSRC DLA). Get in touch with me for a chat! findaphd.com/phds/project/n…

We have 2 PhD studentships available (UK students only). Deadline: 4 April 1. Machine Learning-Guided Synthetic Strategies for Natural Product Synthesis, with King-Smith Group. findaphd.com/phds/project/m… 2. Biomimetic Total Synthesis of Natural Products. findaphd.com/phds/project/b…

A postdoctoral position, funded by the The Leverhulme Trust for up to 36 months, is available to join my group Chemistry Edinburgh . The project focuses on biomimetic approaches to natural product synthesis. Deadline: 18th April 2025. elxw.fa.em3.oraclecloud.com/hcmUI/Candidat…

Just one week left to apply for both of these #TotalSynthesis PhD studentships (UK applicants only) to join our group Chemistry Edinburgh.

Check out the first total synthesis of brevianamide S. Congratulations Adam and the whole team! Spoiler: We didn't follow a biomimetic approach...we opted for a more flexible three-component coupling strategy. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

🚨New Paper Alert - Thrilled to share our latest work now online in Nature Catalysis! We report regiodivergent ruthenium-catalysed C-H functionalisation reactions to install versatile silylmethyl handles with pristine precision. 👉 [nature.com/articles/s4192…]

We’re excited to share our work that introduces singly N-protected O-vinylhydroxylamines as ring-annulation reagents for the synthesis of azaindolines and azaindoles. Congrats to Zach & Charlotte (Charlotte) and the Enamine (Enamine Ltd 🇺🇦) team! 🔗 chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxi…

>30 years since anyone reported on the quinol–enedione rearrangement. Truly remarkable to see Guillaume Vincent & Prof. Zhaoyong Lu report beautiful total syntheses using this reaction at the same time as our paper! Vincent: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10… Lu: chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxi…

📢 Come join us in sunny Southampton ☀️ The opening for our Postdoctoral Research Associate in Organic Synthesis is now live! jobs.soton.ac.uk/Vacancy.aspx?r… Deadline: Thurs 29th May 2025 Start date: Flexible – anytime from now to early 2026 UoS Chemistry & Chemical Engineering University of Southampton

This week's Paper-of-the-Week (POW) presentations in our weekly group meeting featured some fantastic work by Andy Lawrence + Rafał Szabla, Kan group + Li group + Wu group, Chen group + Wang group and Sarlah Lab! #Chemistry #Boron
