Very happy to report that the KFB Lab has officially received funding approval for a DNI grant by the @ACSPRF to support our work in biocatalytic halofunctionalization reaction development! So excited right now for this hard-working and resilient team!
Professor Jennifer Schomaker shares one (of many!) favorite OR chapters about asymmetric halofunctionalization of alkenes towards desirable products including chiral heterocycles, synthetic building blocks, and key intermediates in route to NPs. Read: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…
HFIP strikes again! Just accepted @angew_chem a truly simple halofunctionalization of alkenes with a daunting DFT study of the mechanism by @vincent_gandon. Huge congrats to Chenxiao for her amazing work and Guillaume to finish the project onlinelibrary-wiley-com.scd-…
The latest issue of JOC is out! (pubs.acs.org/toc/joceah/84/1). The cover article illustrates chiral N,N'-dioxide/metal complexes as useful chiral Lewis acid catalysts for asymmetric halofunctionalization of enones (pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…).
Inspiring talks on Stereoselective Alkene Halofunctionalization and a great speakers dinner with Qiu Wang, Thomas Wirth, Tanja Gulder, YY Yeung, Scott Denmark, Brad Moore, Jeff Johnston and Tom Rovis - we had a fantastic day 😄! #ACSNOLA
