Thrilled to see this work from my PhD in the Radosevich group published today in J. Am. Chem. Soc. (w/ Marissa Lavagnino, Soohyun, Myles Drance, Jeff Lipshultz; in collaboration with BMS). pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…


Previously on ChemRxiv, the final version of our photochemical protocol to convert pyridines into 1,2-diazepines in now out in J. Am. Chem. Soc.! @ILV_UMR8180 @XMoreau_ILV Our work is dedicated to the memory of Prof. Jacques Streith. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…







From flat common heteroaromatic rings to 3D dearomatized structures; our short review on modern dearomative enlargement reactions is now online in Synthesis Chemistry at Thieme thieme-connect.com/products/ejour… @XMoreau_ILV @ILV_UMR8180 UVSQ Research UVSQ


Start of an era! Thrilled to be back home to continue my academic career at CiQUS ! Thanks a lot to Mascareñas group for hosting me, and to my previous groups for all your support over the years! Cornellab Echavarren Lab

Deciphering the mechanism of oxidative addition of aryl iodides into a red-light active bismuthinidene. Incredible team: Alexios Stamoulis, Mauro Mato, Paolo Cleto-Bruzzese Markus L., Marcos Gil Sepulcre Alejandro Cadranel & Frank Neese. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…


🚨Calling medicinal chemists🚨: A Suzuki het-het coupling sometimes does not require complex ligands. An air stable Ni would do. Amazing work from Rakan Saeb Rakan Saeb and Byeongdo Roh. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/an…


Great news, Planas' lab (Oriol Planas) first project is finally on ChemRxiv!!! 🎉🎉🎉 Congrats to all the authors, and particularly to Selwin Fernando. So proud of being part of it!! Zwitterionic Heavier Pnictinidenes in Redox Catalysis | ChemRxiv - go.shr.lc/4bfooqH
