Today we launched Cambridge Chemistry Gender Equality Network, a network promoting gender equality in chemistry. So grateful and excited to be part of this amazing community. Please give us a follow! #IWD2023

📢 Interested in pursuing PhD research in synthetic organic chemistry or computational organic chemistry? Several home fee PhD positions, starting 10/23, are available at the SynTech CDT University of Cambridge in Cambridge Chemistry. Contact us at [email protected] with CV and cover letter ASAP.

We are advertising for a postdoc to join our 4-membered rings project: jobs.ac.uk/job/DDX319/res… Come join us Imperial Chemistry! #oxetanes #bioisosteres #latestagefunctionalization


the latest chapter in our quest for a general alkylamine synthesis platform. Carbonyl alkylation amination to make secondary amines and some interesting applications. Congratulations to the team, led by Milo Smith and supporter by Ryan Kang. chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxi…

Happy to share a preprint of my work on secondary amine synthesis with The Gaunt Group! Very grateful to Ryan, Roopender (The Kumar Lab) and Biswarup for their contributions, and Matthew Gaunt for his support and guidance. chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxi…

Heterobenzylic amines made easy – a distinct variant of our multicomponent CAA methodology mediated by indium - preprint now available on ChemRxiv! 🎉 Congrats Alex (Alex Rafaniello) and Roopender (The Kumar Lab)! Check it out 👇 chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxi…

This week we continue our Advanced Organic Chemistry course as Georgia Harris gives us an introduction to radicals - check it out!! Link to the talk: youtu.be/MX8HsNE_GRo Thanks to Aidan Looby for hosting and Thomas Verheyen for a great problem set! synthesis-workshop.com/#problem-sets


We currently have a few posts available to join our team! If you know anyone interested in teaching practical chemistry please get in touch/show them the link! Oxford Chemistry my.corehr.com/pls/uoxrecruit…


The group’s latest teaching paper is out. This time we show how we’ve used TLC-MS throughout our practical course.Craig Campbell doi.org/10.1002/rcm.98…

Our Carbonyl Azinylative amination (CAzA) for the synthesis of α-heteroaryl amines is now out in Angewandte Chemie! Congrats Alex (Alex Rafaniello), Roopender (The Kumar Lab) and Rachel!🎉 Read it here 👇 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/an…


Now out in Chemical Science!! Thanks again to Ryan Kang, Roopender Kumar, Biswarup and Matthew Gaunt - check it out here: pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

Very happy to share our last work: "Deoxygenative Z-selective olefination of aliphatic alcohols", now in ChemRxiv 🎉! Congrats Sai (Sai Narayanan ), Irene (Irene Sánchez Sordo), Carla (Carla Aira RodrĂguez) and Emanuele (Emanuele Azzi), amazing work! Check it out 👇 chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxi…

Come and join our team. We have an exciting Synthetic Chemistry PhD opportunity in the The Gaunt Group (starting Oct 2025) in collaboration with AstraZeneca. It will focus development of new catalytic activation modes for the synthesis of novel scaffolds. jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/48481/

A 3-year postdoctoral position in homogeneous catalysis and synthetic organic chemistry, to start in February 2025 or later, is available in my group Durham Chemistry! Candidates of any nationality can apply by Sunday 20/10/24. Info and how to apply: durham.taleo.net/careersection/…

The The Gaunt Group are looking for two enthusiastic and talented researchers to join our dynamic team in Cambridge, as postdocs. If you are interested in developing cutting edge synthetic chemistry across a wide range of areas relating to catalysis, apply at jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/49113/

Excited to share that our one-carbon alkene homologation reaction developed Marcus Grocott by has been published in @nature🎉 doi.org/10.1038/s41586… (1/3) 🧵
