⚡Farewell, cyanogen family: e-Cyanation 2.0 has arrived! ⚡Just zap an amine KSCN in wet, non-degassed solvent to access cyanamides cleanly and safely. Proud of this work from our lab at the @UniofGreenwich pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.102…

PhD defended 🎓
Mechanochemistry has been my playground — using force to rethink how we build molecules and where reactivity can go next.
Grateful to my research group @SynCatLab and to the incredible people who supported me along the way.
Let’s see where force can take us next.

Well, my favorite part is the team’s mindset: How do you convince yourself you can control a thing that loses its stereochemistry instantly and trap it fast enough with ANOTHER transient radical. Thinking this could work (and actually making it work) is kind of crazy.

New @chemrvix preprint!
In our work, we resorted to Machine Learning to uncover a more sustainable set of conditions for the #johnsoncoreychaykovsky reaction!
Big thanks to our collaborators 🙌🏻

Need for a CO surrogate?🫧
In our last work, we introduce aliphatic aldehydes as a new class of CO photosurrogates, activated under photocatalyzed decarbonylative Hydrogen Atom Transfer (HAT) conditions

⚡ Interested in zapping molecules? Our lab is expanding collaboration horizons and training the next generation of electrosynthetic chemists.
European researchers can even join us through funded Erasmus research visits. 🌍🔬
Get in touch, we’d love to connect!

I always loved the idea of using the new platforms for science dissemination. Matthew had this ambitious plan, he created a platform that is now a resource for everyone. Thanks for giving us the opportunity to contribute to the success of Synthesis Workshop.
