Nucleophilic (Radio)Fluorination of Redox-Active Esters via Radical-Polar Crossover Enabled by Photoredox Catalysis
Nucleophilic (Radio)Fluorination of Redox-Active Esters via Radical-Polar Crossover Enabled by Photoredox Catalysis. Eric and John’s work in collaboration with BMS on a redox-neutral method for nucleophilic fluorination of phthalimide esters was just published in JACS (check it out here)! Congrats on completing
Regioselective Cross-Electrophile Coupling of Epoxides and (Hetero)aryl Iodides via Ni/Ti/Photoredox Catalysis
Marvin’s work on developing a novel methodology for cross-coupling epoxides and aryl iodides using Ni/Ti/Photoredox catalysis was just published in ACS Catalysis! The mild cross-electrophile approach tolerates three distinct classes of epoxides and a broad scope of aryl iodides. Check it out
Eric Webb, PhD
On April 29th, Eric Webb gave his departmental Final Public Oral to a packed Zoom audience, making the Doyle Lab’s first virtual thesis defense a success! Congrats on your PhD, Dr. Webb!
Role of Electron-Deficient Olefin Ligands in a Ni-Catalyzed Aziridine Cross-Coupling To Generate Quaternary Carbons
Jesús, Wendy, and Stephen’s work on elucidating the mechanism of Ni-catalyzed Negishi Couplings of Aziridines, and the associated ligand effects of electron deficient olefin ligand, Fro-DO, was just published in JACS! Congrats on the completion of an exciting project!
Izzy’s Generals
Congratulations to Izzy on recently passing her “zoom”erals exam! Fantastic job, and we’ll have to celebrate with a champagne toast when we all return to lab!
Congratulations Talia!
Talia recently packed up her car (with some help from her dog Bialy) and headed north to the Boston area to begin a new position at Snapdragon Chemistry. You certainly will be missed by all in the Doyle Lab, but we
